Antioxidants: Your Armor Against Aging
2007-11-20 02:00:29
When it comes to aging, free radicals are public enemy number one. Our cells use oxygen to produce energy. In the process, they generate free radicals - unstable oxygen molecules created during basic metabolic functions as circulation and digestion. Free radicals are also produced by sunlight, by toxins such as pesticides, and by cigarette smoke and air pollution. Most free radicals encountered in our bodies, however, come from oxygen. They are an unavoidable by-product of daily living. (more…) Tags: antioxidants, collagen, free-radicals, oxidative-stress

Work Wonders On Eye Wrinkles With Alpha Lipoic Acid
2007-11-11 23:36:17
Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is a natural, antioxidant that exists deep inside every cell in our bodies. It can increase the positive effects of other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E. ALA also has the ability to affect metabolism. This is important because aging cells have a slower metabolism, which leads to a reduced ability to repair damage. ALA can actually increase a cells metabolism, meaning that the cell increases its energy production and capacity to heal.

Fine Lines? Vitamin C To The Rescue
2007-11-06 02:00:23
Got fine lines around the eyes? A stroll down the aisles of your local department store will reveal lots of sparkling bottles, jars and vials guaranteeing to smooth out those fine lines and give you a youthful look. Unfortunately, these claims are rarely true. As you may intimately know, many products offer only limited, short term benefits. That’s not to say that these products can’t do your skin some good. Many companies produce high quality emollient and exfoliant formulas that can temporarily smooth the skin’s surface around the eyes or increase its ability to maintain moisture. And if you are in need of a quick fix, a short-term gain may very well suit your needs.

To support a treatment regimen designed to get rid of eye wrinkles, it is important to adopt natural skin care habits. “Natural skin care” is caring for your skin in a natural and chemical-free way.

Why Our Skin Wrinkles
2007-10-17 04:25:23
Skin is essentially made up of three layers. The epidermis or outermost layer helps our skin hold in moisture and oil. The dermis, which lies under the epidermis, makes up 90% of the thickness of our skin. The dermis contains collagen and elastin, two types of proteins that give our skin its strength and elasticity. The fat layer, which lies under the epidermis and dermis, serves to insulate and protect our inner organs and acts as a sort of cushion that helps keep the skin plump and smooth.

5 Ways To Prevent Eye Wrinkles
2007-11-27 23:10:58
Sun damage is the leading cause of wrinkled skin. In fact, many experts agree that wrinkles are the direct cumulative result of decades of unprotected sun exposure, rather than aging itself. Ultraviolet (UV) rays penetrate the skin, invading the normally sturdy layers below and eventually destroying collagen and elastin. Collagen makes your skin firm and youthfully plump. Elastin gives skin resiliency and keeps expression lines from forming into creases and wrinkles.

Three Age Defying Solutions To Manage Wrinkles
2007-12-15 03:10:33
I. Upgrade Your Sunscreen Use sunscreen with a sun screen protection factor (SPF) of 30. While SPF is a measure of protection against UVB, the rays that cause sunburn, higher SPF sunscreens usually offer greater protection against UVA, the rays most responsible for fine lines and wrinkles, particularly around the eyes. Your sunscreen should also contain antioxidants like vitamins C and E. Recent research shows that sunscreen with built in antioxidants offers even more insurance against UVA exposure. Antioxidants are your ally because no sunscreen protects you 100%. (more…) Related PostsFine Lines?

2008-03-28 19:45:40
Facial muscles are terribly underused. As a result, most people have weak muscles, which invariably sag. And when the muscles sag, the skin attached to them also sags. In fact, slack facial muscles are one of the main causes of sagging and drooping that most of us eventually experience.
