The simplest and cheapest way to keep your skin healthy and young looking is to stay out of the sun. Sunlight is a major cause of the skin changes we think of as aging ? changes such as wrinkles, dryness, and age spots. Your skin does change with age. For example, you sweat less, leading to
increased dryness. As your skin ages, it becomes thinner and loses fat, so it looks less plump and smooth. It’s never too late to protect yourself from
the harmful effects of the sun. People who smoke tend to have more wrinkles than nonsmokers of the same age, complexion, and history of sun
exposure. It may be because smoking also plays a role in damaging ELASTIN proteins. Facial wrinkling increases with the amount of cigarettes
and number of years a person has smoked.

Some people say that sunscreen is all you need for anti aging skin care. In fact they claim that this is the only product that works, but if you believe that then the words pigs and fly come to mind. While it is true that the sun is one of the main causes of damage to your skin, it takes more than sunscreen to retain that smooth and youthful complexion.

In fact anti aging skin care involves more than just the creams and lotions you use, but is rather part of your general healthy living routine. Apart from excessive exposure to the sun the other major cause of skin damage is smoking cigarettes. So quit the habit and both your skin and your general
health will benefit.

Of course creams and moisturizers are an essential part of an anti aging skin care regime and products for use during the day will include a sunscreen as
one of the ingredients. But when it comes to preventing those wrinkles and fine lines you need to find a cream that contains natural ingredients that have been scientifically proved to be effective.

So it’s obvious that you need more than sunscreen for your anti aging skin care. You can find a full explanation of the ingredients to look for and why
they are important by following this link.

This is the second in the series about ingredients used in natural skincare products. As its name suggests grapeseed oil is a substance that is produced from the seeds of grapes. The oil has many uses, but this post concentrates on its use in anti aging skin care products.

Grapeseed oil like grape juice and red wine contains several antioxidants which are effective in neutralizing free radicals. Pollution, radiation and cigarette smoke all lead to the production of free radicals which, if left unchecked, can lead to cell and tissue damage which results in lines and wrinkles and loss of skin tone.

In addition grapeseed oil possesses regenerative qualities which helps to keep the skin properly moisturized. It is especially effective for repair of the skin around the eyes. The oil has also been shown to reduce the appearance of stretch marks.

Grapeseed oil is rich in linoleic acid and it also contains natural vitamin E making it an essential ingredient of many anti aging skincare products.

As with many things in life prevention is better than cure and this is certainly the case when considering how to minimize wrinkles. The appearance of lines and wrinkles on our faces is part of the natural process of aging. Although we cannot stop the passing of the years, there are steps we can take to delay the onset of these signs of aging.

It’s common knowledge that the major causes of damage to the skin are excessive exposure to the sun and smoking cigarettes. So the first step we should take to minimize wrinkles is to take sensible precautions when out in the sun and to quit smoking.

In addition you should follow a daily skincare routine using creams and lotions to keep your skin moisturized. The skin care products that I recommend are those made from natural ingredients such as Xtend-TK. To find out more take a look at this page on the main site.

I just found this video that explains far better than I can why using skin care products that include collagen are a waste of time. What you need are products that contain ingredients that encourage your body to produce extra collagen itself, such as Xtend-TK and CO Q10.

To understand why collagen stimulation is important you need to know what collagen is and the effect it has on the condition of our skin.
Collagen is a protein that keeps our skin firm and smooth. This protein is produced naturally by our bodies, but as we age the production of collagen starts to decline. As a result our skin begins to lose its firm tone and lines and wrinkles start to appear.

Certain substances encourage collagen stimulation and as the amount of collagen increases so the firm skin tone that we enjoyed in our twenties begins to return. Two natural substances that are responsible for collagen stimulation are Xtend-TK and Phytessence Wakame.

Restoring elastin is quite simply the best way of retaining a firm and wrinkle-free complexion despite our advancing years. Elastin is one of two proteins, the other being collagen, which are responsible for keeping our skin looking smooth and supple. As we grow older our bodies produce less of these proteins and as a result our skin starts
to lose its firmness and lines begin to appear. So restoring elastin forms an important part of an anti aging skin care routine.

There are products which contain these proteins, but unfortunately they tend to be ineffective because collagen and elastin cannot be absorbed through the skin. However there is a way of restoring elastin and collagen using natural products. A substance known as Xtend-TK actually stimulates the production of collagen in your body. It has been proved in clinical trials to promote the regrowth of collagen and in restoring elastin leading to firmness and increased skin tone.
