Secrets Of A Soft And Youthful Skin
Secret # 1 – If a molecule loses one of its electrons then it is called as a free radical. There are a variety of chemical reactions that happens in our body and it is because of these numerous chemical reactions, that some of the molecules lose their electrons. The damage that such free radicals cause includes symptoms of aging in the form of loose and wrinkled skin. Vitamin E is the most powerful antioxidant which will help in neutralizing these free radicals effectively. Dark leafy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, etc, berries, beans and apples contain a plenty of vitamin E.
Secret # 2 – Drink a minimum of 2 to 3 liters of plain water every day. This will ensure that the harmful toxins present in the body are flushed out frequently and will also help in keeping the skin hydrated. A hydrated skin in turn looks at its best which is an important aspect of anti aging treatment. Tap water in some areas might actually be harmful and hence consume cooled boiled water or purified water always.
Secret # 3 – Too much of anything is good for nothing. The evening sun’s rays aids in the synthesis of vitamin D. Moreover the most attractive and healthier looking body is a tanned body. However too much of exposure to sun will be equally harmful to the skin and will speed-up the aging process.
Hyaluronan is one of the major skin components which take care of tissue repair. The ultraviolet rays of the sun damages the skin cells by causing sunburn. The inflamed cells of the skin, in turn, gradually stop producing hyaluronan, thereby causing permanent skin damage. In order to avoid such damage, avoid getting exposed to the sun between 10 AM and 2 PM and substantially reduce the amount of time spent under the sun.
Following the above mentioned steps will make your skin healthy and help in retaining its youthfulness for a longer period of time. However no anti-aging skin-care regime is complete without the mention of high quality anti-aging creams.
You need an anti aging skin cream to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin in your skin. These two are the most important factors responsible in keeping your skin creamy, soft, supple and youthful. Phytessence Wakame and Nanobelle Coenzyme Q10 are ingredients which will help increase the production of collagen and elastin in our skin.
Be careful and choose an anti aging cream which is capable of keeping your skin sufficiently hydrated, pliable and to prevent it from dryness, cracked and or chapped skin. Your cream should also contain appropriate ingredients and be able to reduce wrinkles, fine lines, age spots and stains too.
I believe that this article was useful to you in terms of bringing to light some of the best natural and cosmetic ways of fighting aging.
