Anti Aging Skin Care

 

Beginners Guide to Anti Aging Skin Care

 


Are you losing the 'flush of youth'? There are many attacks on our skin every
day; sun, wind, lack of proper hydration or care. Fairly soon you will look in
the mirror and wonder when your skin started to look so dull or wrinkles started
to appear.

As with most things in life, prevention is better than a
cure. However, for those who have not had eight hours sleep every night,
moisturized regularly, stayed out of the sun and never touched alcohol what is
needed is to reduce further aging and regain a more vibrant appearance. Where to
start?

SUNSCREEN

Whether you're 18 or 58 it is vital for women
to protect their skin from the damage of the sun. While the dangers were not as
well known years ago (or so severe) it now the responsibility of everyone to
safeguard the sensitive skin on their face from the harsh damage caused by the
UV rays from the sun.

Your skin is exposed to the sun no matter what the
weather so use a moisturizer or foundation with a sunscreen that has an SPF of
15 or higher every day. UVA and UVB rays contribute to wrinkles and burns not to
mention the possibility of skin cancer.

MOISTURIZER

As skin ages
it tends to become drier. Dry skin will show more wrinkles than well hydrated
skin. Moisturizers create a barrier that keeps the skin from losing essential
water.

The moisturizers available today are far more luxurious than the
cold creams of yesterday. Starting a moisturizing routine will help your skin
retain hydration which contributes to a supple texture reducing the appearance
of fine lines.

Moisturizers also prepare the skin for the application of
makeup which will apply smoother and create a fine finish without cracking or
flaking.

ANTIOXIDANTS

Pollution in the air and chemicals in our
food release free radicals into our bodies. Free radicals break down the
collagen and elastin in your skin which leads to wrinkles and sagging. Using
antioxidants in your facial products or in supplements will protect the collagen
and elastin which keeps skin firm and supple.

AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids)


AHA comes in many forms, from store bought creams to dermatologist
applied formulations. The AHA sloughs off skin in what is commonly called a
'peel'. A mild formula used at home can treat fine lines while harsher peels can
be performed during a short office visit.

NUTRITION and HYDRATION


As many people are aware, what goes inside will show on the outside. The
best prevention from aging skin is to provide your body with a proper diet of
healthy fresh foods as well as sufficient hydration. Alcohol and caffeine cause
dehydration and should be limited.

Drinking plenty of water throughout
the day will improve the texture of your skin and fight dry skin. Healthy foods
can provide the vitamin C and E that are so rich in antioxidants. Add to this a
good nights sleep and the steps noted above and you are on your way to getting
the fresh, vibrant skin you desire!
