I’m 39 but people tell me I look younger – you can see the difference instantly with my morning skincare routine
A 39-YEAR-OLD woman has revealed the beauty secrets she swears by for looking younger than her age.
She said a five-minute trick each morning “instantly” improves the appearance of her skin.
Isabella Cavalli offers a range of beauty treatments at SKINOLOGYST Aesthetics Clinic UK in Leeds, England.
Speaking to The U.S. Sun, she shared tips for defying the signs of aging.
SUNRISE SKINCARE
Cavalli is often mistaken for being up to a decade younger than 39.
She revealed that with limited time to get ready each morning, she has chosen to focus on her skin health rather than wearing makeup.
“When your skin is healthy any foundation will look good and will glow,” she said.
“ I think it is pointless to be spending a lot of money on expensive foundations when your skin is congested and blocked, it will only look worse.”
She said her day begins with double cleansing and washing her face with cold water.
“Then I do my ice massage, with lymphatic drainage and Gua Sha,” she said.
“This takes me five minutes and you can see the difference instantly.
“Lymphatic drainage massage helps with headaches and blocked sinuses by easing fluid build-up and congestion, improving circulation, relaxing the body, and boosting immune function.
“It relieves pressure, reduces tension, and supports overall sinus and head health effectively.”
Cavalli said she follows the treatment by applying eye cream and preparing her skin with MediMd skin toner.
She raved that the toner “minimizes pores and makes the skin smooth and hydrated.”
“Then I apply my Stem Cell serum from MediMD brand, which stimulates dermal regeneration boosts skin cell renewal, and repairs photo-aging,” she said.
“I finish my morning skin routine with Barrier Cream and SPF 50 to protect my skin.”
SLEEPING BEAUTY
Cavalli said her daily skincare routine involves protecting and hydrating her skin, while nighttime is focused on “repair and regeneration.”
I exfoliate once or twice a week, exfoliation is very important.

She swears by retinoids and peptides for targeting fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone.
“In my evening routine, I double cleanse my skin after a long day of wearing makeup,” she said.
“I exfoliate once or twice a week, exfoliation is very important.
“After washing my face I do my ice massage and my lymphatic drainage massage with Gua Sha.
“I take a little bit longer in the evening, simply because I find it so relaxing.”
Cavalli said the skin around the eyes is “delicate” and prone to irritation.
She applies an eye cream before thicker creams or serums to ensure the active ingredients can absorb properly.
“This sequence helps maximize the effectiveness of the eye cream in addressing concerns such as dark circles, puffiness, and fine lines,” she said.
“I then apply my active ingredient which is tretinoin or other retinoids.
“I finish it off with active night cream and face oil.”
Cavalli revealed that she uses beauty products for her face on her neck also.
She said anyone who suffers from puffiness around the eyes can include ice massages with lymphatic drainage massage or heat compress in their nighttime routine.
Cavalli previously told The U.S. Sun that lymphatic drainage massages helped to get rid of her “moon face.”
She said the simple treatment also helps to remove toxins from the skin.
