Décolletage refers to the area of your neck and chest that’s often exposed by clothing with a low neckline. While it might seem like regular skin, this area is more delicate. Here’s why it needs special attention:
Thinner and Less Elastic: Décolletage skin has fewer oil glands and collagen, making it thinner and quicker to wrinkle.
Sun Damage: We often neglect sunscreen in this area, leaving it vulnerable to sun damage that accelerates aging.
Constant Movement: The neck and chest constantly move with head turns and expressions, which can increase wrinkles over time.
Read along to learn our best tips to learn ways to prevent and treat neck and chest wrinkles.
The neck, chest and décolletage are prime targets for sun damage and often get overlooked.
Unlike your face, this area has fewer oil glands and a thinner layer, making it more susceptible to burning and premature ageing. Sun exposure breaks down collagen, leading to wrinkles and that crepey texture.
These areas are frequently exposed as we carry out our day-to-day lives. Even on cloudy days, UV rays can penetrate and harm your skin.
Unfortunately, sun damage isn’t just about wrinkles. The neck and chest are common spots for skin cancer. Protecting yourself with sunscreen significantly lowers your risk.
We all know the importance of a good skincare routine for your face, but often neglect the delicate area of the neck and décolletage. This area shows signs of ageing just as quickly, if not faster, than the face, so extending your routine here is crucial.
Unlike your face, which might be shielded by hats or scarves, the décolletage is often exposed. This makes it a prime target for sun damage, which can lead to wrinkles, discolouration, and even skin cancer. By extending your skincare routine on your neck and chest, you’re preventing these issues and keeping your skin healthy.
Extending your skincare routine doesn’t require a significant amount of extra time and money. Simply use a few extra drops of your face serum, moisturiser and sunscreen on your neck and chest. Remember, consistency is key!
Your neck and décolletage crave moisture just as much as your face, if not more.
This area has fewer oil glands, making it naturally drier. Consistent moisturising keeps it plump and supple, preventing that uncomfortable tightness.
Dryness accelerates the formation of wrinkles. By keeping your décolletage hydrated, you’re essentially delaying the appearance of those unwanted lines and keeping your skin looking smooth.
Well-hydrated skin reflects light better, giving you a natural, radiant glow. By incorporating a good moisturiser into your routine, you’ll be treating your neck and décolletage to the hydration they deserve, keeping them soft and supple for years to come.

While genetics play a role, repetitive motions can contribute to wrinkles on your neck and check.
Phone slouch
Hunched over your phone for hours? This position strains your neck muscles and can lead to horizontal lines. Try holding your phone higher or invest in a stand.
Sleeping positions
Side sleeping can crease your chest and neck over time. Experiment with back sleeping or use a silk pillowcase to reduce friction.
By being mindful of your daily habits, you can minimise wrinkles and keep your neck and chest looking smooth.
