Why your expensive cream suddenly seems to do less after 40

I'm a skin specialist. Your skin hasn't changed because you're doing something wrong. It simply holds on to moisture less well, and that calls for more than a cream.

NB
Noor Bakker · Skin specialist at ElleCera
July 2026 · 3 min read

There's a moment almost every woman recognises. The same cream that worked perfectly well for years suddenly no longer feels like enough. By midday your skin already feels dry again, and those small dryness lines around your cheeks are more noticeable than they used to be.

I always say the same thing. It's not you. Your skin is simply ready for something stronger.

SilkPeptide™ Ampoule
A concentrated peptide ampoule instead of an ordinary cream.

Why hydration works differently after 40

Over the years your skin barrier becomes weaker and moisture evaporates faster. As a result, dryness lines become more visible and your skin feels less elastic.

Hyaluronic acid on its own only replenishes the surface. But your skin also needs support from the structure underneath. That's exactly where peptides do their work.

Peptides are the building blocks of collagen. That's the difference between topping up moisture and truly supporting your skin.

How I tackle it
The TriPeptide method
I put the ampoule together so that it works on three levels at once:
1
Peptide complex with 30 peptidesThe building blocks of collagen and elastin, which support elasticity and make your skin look smoother and firmer.
2
Hyaluronic acid on ten levelsHydrates multiple layers of the skin and holds on to moisture for longer, not just on the surface.
3
Ceramides and skin lipidsRestore the skin barrier and limit moisture loss, so the hydration really stays put.

SilkPeptide: lifts, fills and restores, 72-hour moisture
One to two pumps on damp skin, morning and evening. Light in texture, with no sticky layer.
Why I recommend this

“Peptides are the building blocks of collagen. Combined with multi-level hyaluronic acid and ceramides, you support the skin more deeply than an ordinary cream can.”

      Frequently Asked Questions

      check_box

      What exactly is SilkPeptide™?

      SilkPeptide™ is a concentrated peptide ampoule for the face that combines intensive hydration with support for your skin's elasticity.

      The formula contains 30+ peptides, multi-layer hyaluronic acid and ceramides to make your skin look visibly smoother and fuller with consistent use.

      It isn't make-up or foundation, but a skincare serum you can use every day under your moisturiser or make-up.

      check_box

      Which skin type is SilkPeptide™ suitable for?

      SilkPeptide™ is suitable for:

      ✔ Dry skin
      ✔ Normal skin
      ✔ Combination skin
      ✔ Skin with fine dryness lines

      Do you have very oily skin? Then use a small amount and, if you like, pair it with a mattifying day cream.

      If you have sensitive skin, we always recommend doing a patch test first.

      check_box

      Does it really help with fine lines?

      SilkPeptide™ is not a medical anti-ageing product and does not remove wrinkles.

      What it does do:

      It helps hydrate your skin intensely and supports elasticity, so fine dryness lines can look less visible and your skin looks smoother.

      Results vary from person to person and become clearer with consistent daily use.

      check_box

      How do I get the best from SilkPeptide™?

      Apply 1–2 pumps to cleansed skin.

      Gently pat or press it into the skin until fully absorbed.

      Use it in the morning and/or evening under your day or night cream.

      For the best results: use it daily and consistently.

      check_box

      Does it feel sticky?

      No. The formula is lightweight and designed to absorb quickly without leaving a heavy or greasy layer.

      If you use too much product, it may feel slightly tacky for a moment. If so, use less product and massage it in well.

      check_box

      Can I use it under make-up?

      Yes. SilkPeptide™ absorbs and creates a comfortable base under make-up.

      Many users notice that foundation or BB cream goes on more evenly when the skin is well hydrated.

      Let the product absorb fully before applying make-up.
