The Real Truth About Anti Aging Skin Care Products
Posted by Anti Aging Products in skin care products on July 21, 2011
People the world over struggle to find effective anti aging skin care products, so it’s not just you. The reason that it’s so hard to find anything that will really work is that there are actually very few high quality cosmetics products available, and most of them aren’t heavily advertised so you don’t know about them.
It is the highly advertised schlock on the market that is the problem with the cosmetics industry as a whole. The well known companies regularly put millions of dollars into marketing their products, which leaves them with very little funding left for both the research and development of new products, and the manufacturing their products using quality ingredients.
That is why you will notice that when you pick up the average anti aging skin care product and look at the ingredients label you will notice that you need a degree in advanced science in order to figure out exactly what it is that you are actually holding in your hand. That is where things get scary for the consumer.
You actually would need to have such a degree in order for you to figure out what it is that the chosen products contains, because it contains a bevy of chemical agents in it. The major cosmetics companies primarily use these ingredients because they are plentiful, and they cost very little for the company to use.
The synthetic ingredients in these anti aging skin care products are actually dangerous for you to put on your skin. These chemicals get absorbed into your body, and through long term use they are actually capable of having a seriously negative effect on your health. Many of these ingredients have been proven to be carcinogens.
What you would like to see when you pick up these products is that instead of petrolatum or any of the other petroleum based oils you see that the oils contained inside are plant based. This is what you wish for because plant based oils absorb more readily into the skin than the more commonly used oils.
A high quality anti aging skin care product should also contain natural ingredients that are effective in resolving the problems that are causing your skin to age. Ingredients like Natural Keratin, and Phytessence Wakame, both of which will work wonders with the way that your skin looks and feels.
What these two marvelous compounds will offer you is an opportunity that you simply can’t pass up, because they are going to give you back the youthful appearance that you have lost. They will do this by igniting the growth rate of new collagen and elastin. They will also make it possible for you to have more hyaluronic acid in your skin.
How high these all natural ingredients in an anti aging skin care formula will return the level of these three tissues is primarily up to you. Through regular every day use you can literally watch the process of years being melted away. After just a few short weeks of use who knows how young you will look.

The Truth About Top Anti Aging Products Exposed – Are You Wasting Your Money?
Posted by Anti Aging Products in best anti aging skin care on July 21, 2011
We all hope that we will find some top anti aging products that can make us look young again, but that will most likely not happen anytime soon, but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t very good, and effective solutions available.
The reason most so called “top anti aging products” do not work is because of several reasons, here’s a list that will help make things clear, this all comes from personal experience.
Quality. The quality of ingredients most popular brand name products have is very bad, they are not using the right ingredients which can give you the right benefits. For example, you can use on form of an ingredient that your skin can’t absorb, or you can use a special form of that ingredient which your body CAN absorb. The differences can be big, these companies are usually trying to save money, and they hope that you won’t find out.
Quantity. You might not have heard about this, but it is pretty amazing that some people will do this. You see, there are restrictions to what you can put on your product label, it is usually a minimum amount of that ingredient that has to be met. So, what companies do is they put in just enough of the powerful ingredient so that they can put it on their label. Then they can say “hey, our product has this incredibly powerful ingredient that will change your life.”
Ingredients. Quality and quantity doesn’t really matter if you use the wrong ingredients. For example, there are many forms of Coenzyme Q10, but many do not get absorbed by your skin that well. A new nano-emulsion form is Nano-Lipobelle H-EQ10, and I use this myself for effective results. It penetrates very deeply into your skin, where it works its magic from the inside out.
So there you have it, now it is time for you to start looking for the real top anti aging product that will really improve your skin, like the products I use have done for me.

Discover the Truth About Over the Counter Anti-aging Skin Creams
Posted by Anti Aging Products in Anti Aging on May 13, 2011
You’ve probably heard this a million times, but I’m going to say it one more time…ignore advertising hype.
In order to find the best anti-aging skin creams, you have to ignore the hype. Additionally, just because a celebrity endorses an anti-aging skin cream does not mean that he or she really uses it. That celebrity is being paid for their work and the product they promote is more expensive as a result.
Avoid Designer Names
Designer names are another thing to avoid if you really want the best anti-aging skin creams. Listen to this piece of interesting information. In order to be even slightly competitive, the manufacturer has to reduce the number of active ingredients in order to cover the licensing fees for the designer name. That makes me wonder…do you really think fashion designers know anything about anti-aging skin cream? Probably not, because…
Skincare is Healthcare, Not Cosmetics
Cosmetic companies might like for you to believe otherwise, but skincare is a healthcare topic. The most effective ingredients have been evaluated by dermatologists and other doctors. Evaluation is done by these professionals because there are many diseases and health issues that affect the appearance of your skin’s outermost layers; as well as the health and function of your deepest layers.
The things that cause you to look older on the outside can also be caused from the inside. Oxidative stress, free radical damage, allergic reactions, irritation, inflammation, nutrition, and general poor health are just some of the things that affect your appearance. So, what to do?
Speed Up Your Body’s Natural Processes
When you are young, your body’s ability to repair itself is truly amazing; as some of us have once experienced. Yet, due to illness, poor nutrition, or age, your body’s ability to repair itself slows down. This is true throughout your entire body. When you see the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, sagging, and uneven pigmentation, the processes that have slowed down include skin-cell, collagen, and elastin fiber production.
The best anti-aging skin creams address all of these issues by speeding those processes up once again. But, in order to accomplish that feat, certain ingredients must be included in your anti-aging skin cream.
Functional Keratin
Probably the most important compound you can look for is a protein peptide known as Functional Keratin. Keratin is a protein that is found naturally throughout your body and it is one that makes up your skin’s matrix.
Functional Keratin was created through a patented process. It can penetrate deeply and be effectively used by your cells on a molecular level. Clinical research has shown that when included in an anti-aging skin cream, keratin increases skin cell proliferation and firmness.
Only the very best anti-aging skin creams contain Functional Keratin. The big named over-the-counter brands and designer cosmetics do not contain this ingredient; mainly because it is too expensive to produce. Other products ordered directly from the manufacturer, with lower overhead, typically have the freedom to spend the time and money to include necessary, healthy, and effective ingredients.
Wakame Kelp Extract
An extract from Wakame kelp has been proven to prevent the breakdown of an amino acid named hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is another necessary protein that makes up your skin’s fibers. In young people, hyaluronic levels are high and at a healthy level. In older people, they are much lower.
Moisturizers and Antioxidants
If you can find an anti-aging skin cream that contains both Functional Keratin and Wakame, then you will have found a pretty effective product. Yet, if you can find one that contains those two ingredients plus plant oils and waxes for moisturizing, and antioxidants to prevent free radical damage, then it will be really effective.
The added benefit of proper moisturizers and antioxidants is this. Dry skin is easily damaged and looks older. The average moisturizer is not composed of plant oils and waxes, but instead is petrolatum. Petrolatum actually inhibits the skin’s reparation process. And antioxidants will prevent the oxidative stress that leads to wrinkles and free radical damage that can cause skin cancer.
The Full Package
The best anti-aging skin creams will contain HE Q10, which is a combination of the antioxidants COQ10 and vitamin E. In addition, the cream will contain grape seed oil and Babassu wax (moisturizers), Functional Keratin (proteins), and Wakame extract (protein breakdown inhibitor). And always, as a rule of thumb, look for a manufacturer that guarantees safe products and customer satisfaction. Believe me, guaranteeing a product with customer satisfaction says a lot about a manufacturer.

The Truth About Anti Aging Skin Care Products – Part 1
Posted by Anti Aging Products in skin care products on March 7, 2011
If you are looking for an anti aging skin care product, you will quickly find that there are hundreds to choose from. Anti aging is a huge industry because companies know that people are willing to spend money, and lots of it, on products that make them look younger and feel better about themselves.
Nowhere is proof of this more obvious than in the cosmetic surgery industry. This multi-billion dollar industry capitalizes on peopleâs willingness to spend large amounts of money in order to look younger and better. The market for anti aging skin cream is no different.
Millions of dollars are spent on anti aging skin care products every year. The problem is that most of them are produced by dishonest marketers who prey upon peopleâs desire to look younger and better.
Not all skin care products are like this. There are some really great products available, but it can be difficult to discern quality, effective products from those wrapped in an attractive package. This article will provide some tips on how you can choose a really great product.
First of all, products with fragrances in them should be avoided. Several manufacturers of anti aging skin care products add in fragrances, so that you when applied, they make you smell good too. There is nothing wrong with smelling good, but most fragrances used contain toxins, which end up irritating the skin and entering the bloodstream. Over time, these toxins can cause harm to your body and skin that you are trying to protect.
If you want to smell nice, stick with a dab of perfume or body spray. When you apply an anti aging skin care product you are massaging it into your face and body, covering a large area of the body. But when you apply a bit of perfume or body spray this is not the case.

Anti Aging Skin Care Creams – the Real Truth
Posted by Anti Aging Products in Anti Aging on May 3, 2010
If a company really has the best anti-aging skin creams, it should have documented research to back up its claims. If a company is going to charge hundreds of dollars for an anti-aging skin cream, they should be willing to fully disclose the ingredients, rather than using proprietary names. If youâre like me, you want to know whatâs really in there, before you buy.Â
Iâve spent years evaluating different products, so that I could help people learn how to find the best anti-aging skin creams. I got started after reading several reviews from women who had serious adverse reactions. One womanâs face was permanently disfigured by an anti-aging skin cream and I am sure that she is not alone.
You see, cosmetic companies are allowed to use practically anything in their products, especially if the manufacturer is located in specific countries. The US, for example, has very few regulations regarding the ingredients or complete disclosure of them. The EU has better standards and has banned many unsafe ingredients, which are still being used by US companies.Â
Sodium methyl paraben, for example, is banned by the EU, because it has de-pigmenting effects. In other words, it causes the appearance of lighter spots on the skinâs surface. Not only is this a problem for your appearance, it also makes the skin more sensitive to UV rays from the sun. Companies in the US are still allowed to use the ingredient.
The most popular ingredients for anti-aging skin cream are sunscreens. You will see a number of creams and lotions, meant for daily use, that have SPF ratings ranging has high as 20. If you buy a product with an SPF rating, make sure that the sun-screening compound is not oxybenzone or benzophenone. They are derivatives of benzene, a known carcinogen. They have been shown in scientific studies to damage DNA strands, when the cells are exposed to UV rays from the sun, which makes them probably carcinogens. The evidence was published over two years ago, but the ingredients are still be used.
The best anti-aging skin creams do not have an SPF rating. It is not safe to rely on an anti-aging skin cream to prevent sun damage or skin cancer. Use common sense in the sun and wear protective clothing. Use a zinc oxide sun-block, on exposed areas, when you expect to be outside for extended periods of time. When the use of sunscreens became popular, they were rushed to the market, without first being fully evaluated for safety.
The best anti-aging skin creams for the body do contain vitamin B5, because it enhances the natural tanning processes. The ingredient is recommended for men to use on their faces on a daily basis, as it is also a natural anti-inflammatory and men tend to have problems with inflammation, due primarily to shaving.
When you are shopping for an anti-aging skin cream, there are many ingredients to look for, including wakame kelp. The best anti-aging skin creams are safe and natural. Just be sure to do a little research, before you buy.

The SHOCKING Truth That Mary Kay Hasn’t Been Revealing To You!!!

The Truth About a Prescription Wrinkle Cream
Posted by Anti Aging Products in anti aging wrinkle cream on January 16, 2010
Let me tell you a quick story. The only FDA approved prescription wrinkle cream is tretinoin. Brand names include ABERELA, RENOVA, RETIN-A and AVITA. It is the acidic form of vitamin A. It has been used to treat acne and other skin conditions, but there are many negative side effects. Here you can learn about the negative side effects and the safer alternatives.
The negative side effects include dryness, redness, scaling, itching and burning. It increases the skin’s sensitivity to allergens and toxins. It also increases the risk of sunburn. It causes thinning of the skin, which also accompanies the aging process. While it may be beneficial for treating acne, its long-term use by an older person just does not seem logical.
It is interesting to note that a symptom of vitamin A deficiency is dryness and flaking of the skin, but there are two types of dietary vitamin A. One is retinol, which tretinoin is derived from. The other is carotenoids, which are found in many fruits and vegetables. At high doses retinol is toxic to the human body. Carotenoids on the other hand are non-toxic. The body converts it to vitamin A on an as-needed basis and discards the rest.
You can get a non-prescription alternative to prescription wrinkle cream. The best ones contain carotenoids. Those creams are not accompanied by the unwanted side effects of tretinoin use. Night creams containing avocado oil and Shea butter provide carotenoids, as well as other nutrients that contribute to the skin’s health. It seems that all the skin really needs to repair itself is the right nutrients.
For example, creams containing coenzyme Q10 have been shown to reduce roughness and dryness by 26%, increase hydration by 37% and decrease wrinkles by 29% after only six weeks of use. There may soon be a prescription wrinkle cream on the market that contains a synthetic metabolite of coenzyme Q10. It is called idebenone. But, over the counter creams containing natural coenzyme Q10 are already available.
Another example of a nutrient that improves the skin’s health and appearance is the peptide. Peptides are like proteins, in that they are chains of amino acids. But, peptides have smaller chains of amino acids than proteins like collagen and elastin. These smaller chained peptides can be absorbed by the skin and have been shown to increase the production of collagen and elastin fibers. When applied topically, this has the effect of diminishing lines and wrinkles.
There is no prescription wrinkle cream containing peptides, but there are effective over-the-counter creams that contain them. You won’t see these creams in drug stores or cosmetic counters. The ingredients are too expensive. But, you can order them over the internet for a reasonable price.
Bottom line, the effectiveness of these products depends on the concentration of active ingredients. Most products contain only a very small amount of the active components. You should shop for a brand that contains high concentrations and guarantees satisfaction. There is no need to pay for an expensive prescription wrinkle cream. It isn’t your best choice, anyway.

The Truth About Anti Aging Anti Wrinkle Cream
Posted by Anti Aging Products in anti aging wrinkle cream on January 12, 2010
Don’t buy just any anti aging anti wrinkle cream. You need to learn about the ingredients, before you buy something. Help with preventing wrinkles should not be damaging to your overall health, but according to recent reports, some of the common ingredients may increase your breast cancer risk.
There have been lots of reports over the last few years about the ingredients that cosmetic companies use. This latest concern is over the inclusion of estrogen and substances that contain it.
Some women use estrogen creams not for preventing wrinkles, but to help relieve menopausal symptoms. In those creams, estradiol is listed on the label as an ingredient.
In an anti aging anti wrinkle cream, you are not likely to see estradiol listed. What you will see are compounds like animal placenta and amniotic fluid. Those compounds contain hormones of all kinds, including estrogen. They may make your face look a little better temporarily, because they attract fluids and cause puffiness. But, they don’t provide help with preventing wrinkles and there is no long term benefit associated with their use.
The creams that you want to use on your face every day are those that contain nutrients. You might think of an anti aging anti wrinkle cream as a multi-vitamin supplement to support your skin’s health and appearance.
The nutrients that your skin needs include antioxidants, amino acids, essential fatty acids, vitamin A, E, the B group, potassium, calcium, iron and sodium. Most of these can be found in herbs and other botanicals, which make wonderful ingredients for skincare products.
Most of the time, the use of sunscreen is recommended for preventing wrinkles, but that subject has become controversial. It has been noted that there is an increased incidence of malignant melanoma, a very serious form of skin cancer, among regular sunscreen users. The reason for this is unclear. Several different factors may be involved.
People may rely on them too heavily and spend excessive amounts of time in the sun, thinking they are protected. The thin and light sunscreens that you can use every day do not provide adequate UV protection. You would need a 20+ SPF rating for that and most sunscreens of that nature are very thick.
Another thing that may have caused the increased risk is that some of the sun screening compounds damage the cell’s DNA strands. That makes them probable human carcinogens. You may have never thought that skincare products could increase your risk of any kind of cancer, but apparently, they do, particularly the average anti aging anti wrinkle cream.
As the incidences of cancer have increased over the years, researchers have begun to look more at environmental causes and the ingredients in cosmetics are among the things that they have looked at.
Avoiding overexposure to the sun is one step in preventing wrinkles and skin cancer. But, don’t expect an anti aging anti wrinkle cream with a low SPF rating to do that for you. Use common sense when you play outdoors.
Learn the Truth About Anti Wrinkle Cream Reviews
Posted by Anti Aging Products in anti aging wrinkle cream on January 6, 2010
Depending on anti wrinkle cream reviews as a way of gauging the overall effectiveness of the product is not the best of ideas. The people whose opinions are represented for the most part are not particularly qualified to judge and compare anti aging wrinkle cream. They know that they either like them or not, but really can’t explain why.
If you don’t know about the individual ingredients involved or how those compounds interact in order to produce the desired cosmetic effect then you are really not qualified to conduct anti wrinkle cream reviews. They also probably don’t have an understanding of how the ingredients may interact with the individuals own chemistry in order to produce a desired effect.
Case in point, while reading just the other day an article meant to compare anti aging wrinkle cream, the consumer complained of itching, redness and irritation from a particular products use. Deeming the product ‘dangerous’ the reviewer trounced the product. The only thing wrong with making a statement about the safety of a product is that while one person may have had an adverse reaction, others may do just fine.
The consumer never took into consideration that they may have simply had an allergic reaction to one of the ingredients in the product. Many skin care products contain compounds which are known allergens such as alcohols, mineral oil, paraffin and parabens. If that particular consumer had an allergic reaction, it was a personal experience, and the product may not affect another negatively.
It is my opinion that the only people who should ever be allowed to conduct anti wrinkle cream reviews are professionals with some background in the sciences. I am not talking about the actor in the lab coat on a company’s infomercial exclaiming the wonders of the product. I’m talking about testers from an independent laboratory who could compare anti aging wrinkle cream in both a knowledgeable and unbiased way.
Never take any anti wrinkle cream reviews orchestrated by the manufactures of the selected product at face value, because all you’re getting is company propaganda. These usually involve the throwing around of well known skin care terms such as collagen as a way to convince those who really don’t understand what their hearing that a product is good.
Collagen, when derived from outside of the body is dangerous at best. The form used most is actually taken from cow hide, and it can produce such a strong allergic reaction in humans that allergy testing is required before injection treatments can begin. The topical version of collagen can be obtained without testing (although I don’t know why), but this version is totally useless as collagen cannot be absorbed through the skin.
A better bet if you were to compare anti aging wrinkle cream would be to select a product that uses keratin instead of collagen. A company in New Zealand has developed just such a product by deriving the keratin blend from the wool of a certain sheep. The use of the keratin stimulates the safe, natural production of collagen and new skin cells.
Remember to do your research before you buy, look for all natural ingredients, and take everything you read in anti wrinkle cream reviews with a grain of salt.
The Truth About Anti Aging Skin Care Treatment
Posted by Anti Aging Products in skin care products on December 22, 2009
Anti aging skin care treatment is very popular right now. It seems everyone is a skin care guide or has one you must faithfully use. Here’s a shocking truth: Most of what you hear is a lot of inaccurate statements or just a bunch of advertising hype.
Skin Care and the Sun
Of course, the sun can cause damage to your skin.
So can poison in your food. Bacteria in your water. We don’t need some so called expert to tell us that.
What we need is the truth about what can we do to protect our skin from overexposure to the sun. Is there a genuine anti aging skin care treatment that really works?
SPF Factor
Most of these skin care guides will tell you to use a sunscreen with no less than a SPF 15 factor. What they don’t tell you is that SPF factor is possibly damaging to your body. That you can protect your skin without using any SPF. If you do choose to use an SPF factor, an SPF 15 is plenty.
UV Sun Ray Exposure
Skin cells quickly lose COQ10 when exposed to UV sun rays. CoQ10 is a vitamin-like material that can be found everywhere in the body. C0Q10 destroys what is called free radicals, therefore, it is an antioxidant. The UV rays will cause an increase in the production of free radicals in the body. Too many free radicals can cause a lot of damage to the cells, even skin cells. CoQ10 in an anti aging skin care treatment is thought to fight off these damaging free radicals.
Exfoliating – Microdermabrasion
These two methods remove skin- the outer layer.
So why are they promoted? Here’s the truth: They shouldn’t be used. Here’s why: When you get older, your skin doesn’t get thicker but just the opposite it gets thinner. Scraping off more skin from already thin skin is just unwise or maybe crazy. That is unless you like sore, red irritated skin.
A better way is to take a softer route. When you use a hydrating mask it can have a nourishing effect on your face leaving it much smoother and a lot cleaner. What it does is removes the dead cells not the live ones. Any one that tells you to exfoliate, get up and leave. They know nothing about anti aging skincare and zero about skin care guide.
Expensive Products – Not the Answer
You would think that if you paid a lot of money for something it should be the best and do the job better than cheaper priced skin care products.
Research has shown that many if not most of the top skin care products have very little active ingredients. Don’t let price be your skin care guide.
Collagen- Consider the Source
Collagen, and very little at that, is a common ingredient many companies use. It’s not expensive because it comes from sources like cow hide. Also, collagen from sources like this simply doesn’t do any good. It doesn’t work because it just won’t penetrate the skin like it must if it is too be effective.
The average skin care treatment by many companies is to use “purified water”, paraffin and some sort of fragrance. This “treatment” will make your skin feel smoother and moister, but it will rob your skin of its natural oils and eventually it will feel drier than ever. Feeling smoother is not the only result you want in an anti aging skin care treatment.
Some companies, and I found only one so far, that really want to bring to you a product that you can afford. One that has been researched enough to be effective. This one company would rather spend its money on finding ingredients that benefit your skin instead of spending wildly on advertising. Here’s one such example.
Functional Keratin
Sea Algae
CoQ10
Vitamin E
Functional keratin help promote an increase of collagen and elastin. Also sea algae will nourish and support skin cell production along with elasticity.
CoQ10 and Vitamin E will repair damage caused by the sun. A company who truly cares about your anti aging skin care will include these ingredients and assure you they are from a quality source. Again I found only one such company. Hopeful others will follow their example.
Discover the Truth About Anti Aging Skin Care Products
Posted by Anti Aging Products in skin care products on December 3, 2009
If you are looking for an anti aging skin care product, hopefully you have attained a level of wisdom that allows you to realize that all those advertisements and claims may not be true. It can be difficult to decipher the truth about anti aging skin care products, but if you don’t try, then you could end up with something that does even more damage.
None of us wants to look old and some people will stop at nothing to head it off. But before you throw away your money on some celebrity endorsed anti aging skin care product or designer name, let me share with you a few aspects of the subject so that you might make a better informed decision. Perhaps, you’ll even get a wink from a noticeable somebody who is ten years younger.
Interestingly the skin has a kind of skeleton all of its own. Except in this case its not made of solid bone, but rather a tightly woven mesh of protein chains, a collective more commonly known has collagen. Now, don’t try to skip ahead. Don’t run out and buy a bunch of anti aging skin care products that contain collagen, because they don’t work.
There are actually several different types of collagen, but types one and three are found to be the most relevant to our skin’s mechanics. Infants and toddlers produce more type one and that is responsible for that silky smooth feeling children possess in their skin. If only there was an anti aging skin care product that could recreate that feeling.
From adolescence to the mid thirties, the body produces more type three. After this stage, your stores slowly decline until you see the structural absence of the substance in the form of wrinkles and creases. The type of collagen used in anti aging skin care products comes from cow hide. That’s neither silky, nor smooth and the body cannot use it for anything.
Another enemy, responsible for wrinkles is the free radical. An anti aging skin care product that targets this little trouble maker will be highly effective.
They are actually produced in the body as a by-product in cell energy generation. Simply called radicals for short, the term free was spawned due to the fact that they are “free” to interact with nearly any strand of DNA or any cell in the body. To prevent and undo the damage that they do to the skin’s structure, powerful antioxidant anti aging skin care products are needed.
Antioxidants destroy free radicals. Some are vitamins. Others are co-enzymes. It seems that the two that are most effective for use in an anti aging skin care product are COQ10 and vitamin E. Now, they have to be properly emulsified or they won’t penetrate the skin’s layers.
Nano-lipobelle is a patented emulsion of the two that will penetrate through seven layers. Anti aging skin care products that contain it have been clinically proven to reduce the number and activity of free radicals, allowing the body to produce new collagen, just like it did when it was younger.
Knowledge is power, now you have a little more knowledge regarding which anti aging skin care product to purchase. Good luck!
The Shocking Truth About Most Anti Aging Skin Care Products
Posted by Anti Aging Products in skin care products on November 22, 2009
Finding a high quality anti aging skin care product that is really effective can be like finding a needle in a haystack.
Many anti aging skin care products do not perform as promised.
Some of them only moisturize and several are not even very good at that.
Recently we looked at the customer reviews for a popular anti aging skin care product sold on Home Shopping Network.
The “collagen kit” as it is called was supposed to remove fine lines, lessen wrinkles, enhance the lips and soften crow’s feet around the eyes.
We didn’t find a single person that was satisfied with these anti aging skin care products.
And, I believe I know why.
First of all, the Home Shopping Network is great for jewelry, clothing and similar items.
But, when you are looking for an anti aging skin care product, you have to be able to read the fine print.
You should be able to answer these questions: What are the ingredients? What are the guarantees? What research do they have to back up their claims? Why does it cost so much?
If you skip the homework, you will end up dissatisfied and possibly with more skin problems than you had before.
Ingredients to Avoid
Purified water is often the primary ingredient in anti aging skin care products and cosmetics of all types.
It’s fine, but it doesn’t “do” anything for you.
Alcohols of various types are usually listed. Ethanol, ethyl, methanol, benzyl and isopropyl are all forms of alcohol and they are all drying.
The collagen fiber that many companies list as an ingredient in their anti aging skin care product line is derived from cow skin and is ineffective.
We all have collagen and elastin in our skin.
As we age, we lose collagen due to the sun, the wind and other environmental factors.
Cow collagen can not replace what we have lost.
It works in injections in sort of the same way that you would blow up a balloon. It does not work in creams.
Parabens are preservatives that a company may still use in anti aging skin care product, even though they have been banned in several countries, because they are believed to drive cancer tumor growth.
Diethanolamine, monoethanolamine and triethananolamine or the abbreviations DEA, MEA and TEA are sometimes used in anti aging skin care products to adjust pH levels, even though they too are believed to cause cancer and there use is restricted in Europe and many countries around the world.
Dioxane is another cancer causing ingredient that you may see.
It is sometimes used to make harsh ingredients milder.
Ingredients to Look For in an Anti Aging Skin Care Product
