We asked our Lancôme researchers.
The answer is definitely no. Simply because the ageing process is the result of two different factors.
On the one hand, there's the natural ageing process. This is written in our genes and unavoidable. Around age 30, some women just seem more fortunate than others. This is why we can look at our mothers to get an idea of what we will look like later in life.
Then on the other hand, there is the self-inflicted ageing process. This is great news because today's cosmetics give us the means to thwart it. The effects of this process are due to our lifestyle and environment. As a result, we can protect our skin conscientiously with skin treatments and by not exposing it to too much sun, so that it stays young for a long time. Reassuring, isn't it?

The skin behind your ears, which is protected from the sun and pollution, looks 10 years younger than the skin on the rest of your face. What better reason to use a protective cream every morning?
