Learn The Facts About Elite Anti Aging Skin Care Products
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
No matter where you look in the anti aging skin care market you can't help but see all those fantastic claims from all kinds of 'new breakthrough' facial skin care formulas.
While all these wondrous products offer us exactly what we most desire, 21st century consumers have long since woken up to the reality of the half truths and mis-leading scientific 'facts' in the marketing literature for these fountain of youth products. Naturally then the thing that's uppermost on our minds as we depart with huge amounts of cash is simply, do any of these products completely meet their marketing claims?
The answer to this sixty four thousand dollar question is this - it's part reality and part wishful thinking.
For the largest part of anti aging facial skin care products these claims are pure fantasy. A thorough scrutiny of most skincare formulas bares pitifully tiny concentrations of the vital active ingredient(s).
On the whole they do cause your skin to feel terrific and give the impression of being enhanced after you've used them BUT alas when you shower the saggy skin, blemishes and hardcore wrinkles are still there - untouched!
See that I wrote "majority" of products? There are a quantity of skin care products available with the vital levels of primary key actives to truthfully assist with firming up your skin and tangibly diminishing fine lines and blemishes.
But you must be a realist however in accepting that there are limits to what the most effective products can achieve by themselves. With this in mind you need more than a topical skincare line of attack in your anti aging efforts. A three part, 'inside-out' anti aging skin care system will give you the most successful results.
Logically, you want to see which products will perform the best. Therefore, you must be aware of what causes your skin to get older. There are 3 core|essential[/spin] causes and any anti aging skin care treatments whose formula does not contain ingredients which tackle ALL THREE is not worth your money.
The core of this is that these three causes are interdependent! You must deal with all of them simultaneously or your anti aging efforts will fall short. The best skin products contain specific ingredients which can address ALL THREE!
In this article I will concentrate on one of these three cause of skin aging - The oxidative damage from Free Radicals! Understanding and limiting the actions of free radicals is critical for maintaining healthy, clear and firm skin as you age.
Free radicals play an necessary role in a healthy human body ! But they are unstable molecules. Therefore your body attempts to mediate this dilemma. An unstable free radical steals an electron from a neighboring (stable) molecule to become stable itself. But the molecule which gave up an electron becomes a brand new free radical. Free Radicals can hurt DNA, leading to dysfunction, mutation, cancer and set up the conditions for the onset of debilitating degenerative diseases.
The Impact Of Free Radicals On Your Skin
The key to young looking skin is to maintain high levels of healthy collagen. But free-radical attacks on your collagen cause cross-linking of protein molecules which lead to stiffness in your tissue. As a result your skin begins to lose it's suppleness and tautness. Since collagen stays in your skin for many years and the manufacture of free radical attacks is nonstop and unavoidable, the damage to your skin is cumulative!
Your only answer is to manage the production of your free radical 'population'. Anti-oxidants allow you to do this. Anti-oxidants 'give up' a spare electron to a free radical thereby eliminating it. So, clearly we need to take a substantial amount of antioxidants into our bodies!
But anti-oxidants are not all on a par. Some are more effective while others are considerably weaker. To be radically more victorious with your anti aging efforts you should prioritize the most powerful antioxidants into your daily diet. The well known vitamin antioxidants, like Vitamin C and A, are comparatively weak (and cheap). Vitamin E is a well recognized exception - a powerful antioxidant and important to skin health. Clinical study identifies the following list shows the most powerful antioxidants.
L-Glutathione
CoQ10
Grape Seed
Green Tea
Lutein
Gingko Biloba
Lutein
Bilberry
The problem here is that most of these are not there or exist in inadequate quantities in our diets. That's why 21st century nutritional intakes require the 'help' of a multi nutrient, nutritional health supplement. The most effective health supplement formulas hold ALL of these powerful antioxidants and a great deal more. The kind of nutritional health supplement you use makes a huge difference in the outcome you'll get. If your finances allows you should use science-based, PREMIUM GRADE health nutritional supplements.
Now, let's relate this to your skin. As you have almost certainly figured out, what we are looking for is the use of these potent antioxidants in skin care formulas. This is a main point of difference relating to the most effective anti aging skin care treatments and the less effective ones. The antioxidants from our list above which are used in anti aging skin care products are:
CoQ10
Grape Seed
Green Tea
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Lutein
Your Critical Anti Aging Skin Care Criteria
Before buying you need to consider three essential factors: Safety, Effectiveness and Cost. If you visit my website skincare-antiaging-secrets you'll discover everything you need to know about the safety of skin care products.
For 'effectiveness' you categorically must make certain a product contains ingredients to address all three primary causes of skin aging. With the list above you already are aware of the names of the most effective ingredients for the free radical cause of skin aging. In my next two articles I'll tell you the leading ingredients for the two other causes.
Finally you must look at PRICE and VALUE FOR MONEY.
Elite anti aging facial skin care creams are over-priced. They are not priced according to the expense of manufacture (as they should be) but rather at the uppermost level the market will sustain (based on a false perception which has been nurtured by the big brand name companies over the years).
What is usually the case is that the more expensive a product is, the really effective ingredients are included in tiny doses. This is because elite brands are manufactured to a set price. Adding the tremendous costs associated with their marketing and distribution methods, as well as shareholder pressure, these companies simply cannot afford to formulate highly effective formulas.
Over time these famous brand name companies have strategically educated customers into believing that the more pricey a skin care product is, the more effective it must be. This is INCORRECT!
Thankfully, there are some committed skin care manufacturers, (they're always smaller companies) producing the markets most effective products by selling direct to the consumer and pricing their products according to the expense of manufacturing them while accepting a reasonable profit.
