The Best Anti- Ageing Cream
Potent natural ingredients that strengthen and protect your skin
Lets’ start by talking about the term “anti-ageing”. Ageing is certainly a privilege and we here at The Natives Co. make a conscious effort to avoid the negative associations that often surround the term “anti-ageing” that was coined in the eighties to sell high priced skincare. Rather, we prefer to talk “pro-ageing” or “well-ageing”. So when we refer to “anti-ageing” we are all about skin health using ingredients and products that strengthen and protect our skin.
We bring our ingredient knowledge and experience to forefront when curating our offer. By doing so we look to natural skincare products that holistically support the skin function and allows the skin barrier to work at its best. The best anti-ageing creams aim to protect against fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging by harnessing ingredients that promote skin cell regeneration and collagen production. These are important factors in maintaining a healthy and “youthful” appearance. GREAT skin is what we strive for at every age and we select anti ageing skincare products that are specifically formulated and clinically proven to provide your skin with antioxidants, vitamins, and ceramides to keep you looking and feeling your best.
Why choose natural anti-ageing skincare
Natural skincare offers gentle, non-toxic products that are kind to both the skin and the environment.
Gentle on the skin: free of harsh chemicals and synthetic fragrances, natural anti-ageing skincare can be particularly beneficial for those with sensitive skin, as harsh ingredients can cause irritation and inflammation, which leads to premature ageing.
Rich in antioxidants: natural skincare products are rich in antioxidants, which can help to fight free radicals in the skin. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage cells and contribute to aging. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals, helping to prevent or reduce the signs of ageing.
Promote collagen production: natural anti-ageing skin care can help to stimulate collagen production in the skin. Collagen is a protein that gives skin its elasticity, and its production naturally declines with age. By promoting collagen production, the best anti-ageing creams can help to improve skin firmness and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Prevent Trans Epidermal Water Loss: lipid rich botanical butters and oil have moisturising properties that can help to hydrate and plump the skin. Skin looks plump and youthful as a result.
Environmentally friendly: Our offer of natural skincare products are all made with environmentally friendly ingredients and packaging, are all cruelty-free and many are suitable for vegan lifestyles.
Natural ingredients in the best Anti-Ageing Creams
There are many natural ingredients that provide anti-ageing benefits to the skin, and it can be overwhelming to decide which is best for your skin. We like to take the approach that vitamins combined with lipid rich ceramides provided by a potent offering of botanical nutrients work in a muti-faceted way to repair, defend, and protect the skin.
Vitamin A (retinol):
Vitamin A is known for its ability to promote collagen production, improve skin texture through cellular renewal and protection against UV damage. Natural forms of vitamin A are well tolerated in comparison to their famous synthetic counterpart and can also be beneficial in regulating oil production in the skin helping to prevent clogged pores, working to keep the skin clear and blemish free.
Dr Alkaitis Organic Night Crème is a silky soft night moisturising crème for the face that replenishes moisture and smooths your skin. Bursting with phytonutrients including Vitamin A from potent organic Carrot and Marigold Extract and Vitamin C from Camu Camu and Acerola, this cream transforms the skin surface by decreasing roughness and irregularities. Developed to firm the skin, replenish moisture, repair damage and minimize the appearance of fine lines. Nothing we want more than a hard-working night cream that works to reduce the signs of ageing so you wake up refreshed, with supple and soft skin.
Pro Tip: for dry and mature skin in need of a boost trading your night cream for a treatment oil can bring dewy youthful skin upon waking. Votary Intense Night Oil simultaneously encourages the skin’s natural turnover of cells and reduces the breakdown of collagen, meaning you wake with firmer, smoother skin. The combination of rosehip and retinoid helps to smooth texture, even-out tone and give you younger, plumper-looking skin.

Ceramides:
Ceramides are a type of lipid, or fat molecule, that are naturally present in the skin. As we age, the natural production of ceramides in the skin decreases and because they play an important role in maintaining the skin’s barrier function, using skincare products that contain ceramides can help to replenish the skin’s natural lipid barrier. By boosting the skin’s hydration, ceramides help to prevent moisture loss from the skin. A hydrated skin barrier can function as its optimum, building more resilient skin capable of defending against environmental stressors that can contribute to premature aging, such as pollution and UV radiation.
Jojoba Oil is rich in natural ceramides known as phytoceramides. The Jojoba Co. Ultimate Day Cream is potent blend of skin loving Jojoba seed oil and Vitamin C for all day hydration. This rich, clinically proven anti-ageing cream is ideal for all skin types and works to defend against all environmental agressors including cell degenerating blue light. Great for layering under makeup on office days.
Looking to firm the facial contours? Ceramides have been shown to increase the production of collagen. By promoting collagen production, ceramides can help to improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of sagging. The Jojoba Co. Ultimate Youth Potion + L22 layers under any natural anti-ageing cream and has been clinically proven to increase the skin elasticity and firmness. Brimming with Australian Wadi-Wadi Jojoba a powerful antioxidant, and naturally rich in vitamin A and ceramides this is a great product for all skin ages.
Our skin can also change throughout the decades, and by incorporating the anti-inflammatory properties in ceramides into your skincare regime you can help to keep the skin calm and resilient to irritation. Irritation and skin sensitivities is form of inflammation that lead to premature ageing.
