I Asked AI How to Stop Skin Ageing — Here's What It Said

 

Ageing is inevitable. But ageing well? That's entirely within your control.

I decided to put artificial intelligence to the test and asked: "What are 5 things I can do every day to slow skin ageing?" AI delivered powerful, science-backed strategies — and honestly, they're spot-on.

Here are AI’s top 5 recommendations:

1. Choose a Barrier-First Cleanser

Harsh foaming cleansers may feel effective, but they strip your skin's essential oils and weaken its protective barrier. This results in dryness, irritation, and ultimately, accelerated ageing.

What to do instead: Choose gentle, creamy or oil-based cleansers that nourish and support your skin’s natural barrier, maintaining hydration and protection.

2. Prioritise Hydration and Healthy Fats

Your skin thrives on hydration. But it’s not just about drinking water; it's about sealing it in. Healthy fats play a crucial role in supporting skin elasticity and moisture retention.

What to do instead: Add omega-3-rich foods like wild salmon, chia seeds, flaxseed, walnuts, and avocado into your diet. Pair this with topical oils (like our Calm Cactus Oil) to seal in hydration and strengthen your skin barrier.

3. Ditch Synthetic Skincare

Many mainstream skincare products contain synthetic fragrances, alcohol, SLS, and fillers that cause invisible inflammation. Over time, these ingredients accelerate signs of ageing, creating redness, dullness, and increased sensitivity.

What to do instead: Opt for natural, nutrient-rich skincare formulations that enhance your skin’s biology rather than fight against it. Look for ingredients you recognise and trust.

4. Regulate Your Nervous System

Stress isn't just in your mind—it shows up on your skin. Elevated cortisol levels break down collagen, cause inflammation, and impair skin healing.

What to do instead: Incorporate practices like breathwork, cold exposure, regular movement, and prioritising quality sleep. When your nervous system is balanced, your skin reflects it through radiance, resilience, and fewer signs of ageing.

5. Commit to a Daily Skin Ritual

Consistency is more powerful than complexity. You don't need ten steps—you need three intentional steps performed consistently to support skin longevity.

What to do instead: Create a simple, powerful routine:

• Gentle cleansing

• Barrier support (using nourishing oils)

• Hydration sealing

Think discipline, not drama. Ritual, not randomness.
