How to Reduce the Most Common Signs of Aging

At No7, we’re constantly working on the latest skincare innovations to help fight signs of aging.

The 8 most common anti-aging skin concerns in the US  

Regardless of gender or skin type, there’s one skin concern that unites us all: aging. Wrinkles, in particularly, are the biggest aging skin concern for women and men in the US, with searches for lines around the eye, forehead, neck and mouth proving increasingly popular. Signs of aging around the eyes, including dark circles and bags, as well as dark spots and hyperpigmentation are also common. 

The states most concerned by signs of aging  

While a universal process, aging – and the skin-related signs that come with it – trigger varying levels of concerns among American. Vermonters readily search for anti-aging solutions while Alaskans appear to be the least concerned about aging skin. 

The most popular anti-aging products in the US  

Face creams and moisturizers are the most sought-after products to help reduce signs of aging, while eye creams and serums are increasingly popular too – and it’s understandable why. Finding the right anti-aging skincare products can mean the difference between pronounced wrinkles, dark spots, dark circles, and eye bags, and a bright, youthful-looking complexion with subtle fine lines.
