Anti Aging Skin Care
Anti-aging skin care is more than peels, scrubs, lotions and serums. Here's a basic overview of anti-aging skin care and some easy things you can do to improve your skin's health and appearance.
Your skin ages due to a variety of factors, including heredity and lifestyle. You can't do much about heredity, but you can take steps to slow down its effects on your skin. You may notice some fine lines on your forehead or under your eyes.
There may be deep lines that run from the sides of your nose to the corners of your mouth. Skin along the jawbone and under the chin may be loose and sagging. You may have "crow's feet" at the corners of your eyes. Take a moment to look critically into the mirror. Then follow some of the suggestions below.
When choosing anti-aging skin care products, look for products containing proven performers like vitamins A, C, E and alpha hydroxy acid.
Vitamin A, also known as Retinol, strengthens the collagen fibers in the skin. Collagen accounts for up to 75% of the weight of the interior layer of skin, called the dermis. Collagen also is responsible for the resilience and elasticity of the skin. Vitamin C, also known as L-abscorbic acid, is an anti-oxidant that protects cells from the destructive power of oxygen, which can act corrosive and weaken skin cells. Vitamin E helps retain moisture and smoothness.
Alpha hydroxy acid gently breaks down the bonds of dead skin cells, allowing them to sluff off and reveal the healthy, younger skin below.
All the cosmetics in the world won't do an optimal job unless you make some important lifestyle changes to support your anti-aging skin care regimen. Drink plenty of water, eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly, use a sunscreen, don't smoke, get plenty of sleep and use alcohol in moderation. This two-pronged approach combining lifestyle changes and effective cosmetics is the best and most efficient way improve your skin's resiliency and smoothness, and to fortify it in the battle against fine lines and wrinkles. .
Natural Cosmetics
What is natural and organic should be better, right? For the most part it should, but as many skin care users are discovering, the use of terms like 'natural' and 'organic' is more than skin deep.
Experts believe that while awareness about the adverse effects of synthetic skin products is growing, the cosmetics industry is cashing in on the trend to advertise their products as natural, when in fact they may not be. Should we be worried? Yes, because makeup, though applied on the outside soaks into the skin and is absorbed by the body in varying degrees. In fact, research has demonstrated that close to 60 % of what is applied on the skin could be absorbed into the circulatory system. So what comes out of that foundation jar may actually be toxic.
Some natural ingredients have been reported to cause skin rashes that develop when in contact with these products. These include jojoba oil, tea tree oil, lavender oil, coconut oil and in some cases even vitamin E. Experts...
