It’s incredible that companies will develop and market an anti aging skin care product, but in doing so, include ingredients that are bad for your skin. Here are 7 items to avoid when choosing an anti aging skin care product.
1. Dioxane
Dioxane comes from coconut products, and can be easily absorbed into the skin. One of the most common forms of dioxane is named as a cancer causing agent by the State of California! Stay away from this one!
2. Fragrances
It’s true that people like to smell nice, and fragrances can help with that. However, many fragrances are made from ingredients that are harmful if absorbed widely in the body. Since the skin is the largest organ in the body, it makes sense to avoid skin products that use fragrances.
3. Mineral Oil
Many anti aging skin care products use mineral oil due to its low cost. Once you apply mineral oil to the skin, though, it clogs the pores and keeps your skin from breathing. It can even cause premature skin aging. This is another ingredient to avoid.
4. Parabens
Skin care companies often use parabens to increase the shelf life of their products. The negative aspect of this approach is that studies indicate these ingredients could lead to cancer, as well as cause allergies or rashes. It would be best to avoid any skin care product that contains parabens.
5. Alcohols
Skin care products should be increasing the moisture levels of your skin. Products that contain benzyl and SD alcohols cause drying and irritation to the skin, as well as increase the potential for disease. Stay away from this ingredient!
6. Loss of hyaluronic acid
Collagen and elastin depend on hyaluronic acid to form the glue for these protein fibers. Any ingredient that reduces the production of this acid will inhibit collagen and elastin formation.
7. Lack of antioxidants
One of the greatest causes of skin damage is the effect of free radicals. These harmful agents increase greatly without the presence of antioxidants. It is important to maintain a high level of antioxidants to combat this skin damage threat.
There you have it – 7 tips on what to avoid in an anti aging skin care product. As you do your research, keep these points in mind. That way you will be able to pick the best anti aging skin care product for your needs!
