From 40 onwards, the first wrinkles become permanent: crow’s feet, forehead lines and the nasolabial fold remain visible even when your face is relaxed. A face cream over 40 needs to do more than provide moisture. Our creams combine hyaluronic acid, peptides and targeted active complexes to visibly smooth first wrinkles, support firmness and give a dull complexion new freshness. Developed and made in Germany.
Collagen loss becomes visible: collagen production has been slowing down for years, and now the first wrinkles become permanent.
Slower cell renewal: the skin renews itself more slowly, and the complexion looks duller.
Less moisture: the skin stores less hyaluronic acid and loses plumpness.
Hormonal changes: from the mid-forties, perimenopause begins, and the skin often becomes drier and more sensitive.
First pigment spots: years of UV exposure become visible as an uneven skin tone.
What a face cream over 40 should do
Smooth first wrinkles: peptides such as Syn-Ake visibly soften expression lines.
Restore moisture: hyaluronic acid and Pentavitin plump the skin from within.
Strengthen the barrier: ceramides protect against moisture loss.
Protect: antioxidants defend against environmental stress, which accelerates skin ageing.
Feel light but nourishing: at 40, most skin types need care that absorbs well without feeling heavy.

Frequently asked questions about face creams over 40
Which face cream is right over 40?
A cream with hyaluronic acid and actives against first wrinkles. For normal skin, the Face Cream Smooth 100 is a good fit. If your skin needs more moisture, the Collagen Face Cream is ideal.
What does the skin need from 40 onwards?
Above all moisture, actives that support collagen production, and protection against UV light. Now is the right time to supplement your care with a targeted serum.
Do I need a serum from 40 onwards?
It is recommended. A serum delivers actives in higher concentration than a cream. The Optimal Lift Serum visibly tightens the contours and complements every face cream over 40.
Light or rich face cream over 40?
Most skin types are well looked after with a light to medium texture at 40. If your skin becomes noticeably drier during perimenopause, switch to a richer cream in the evening.
When should I switch to a face cream over 50?
Not at a fixed age, but when your skin changes noticeably: when it becomes significantly drier, thinner or loses firmness faster, a richer care routine is advisable. You will find it in our collection face cream over 50.
