The purpose of this anti aging skin care guide is to inform you
of the ingredients used in skin care products so that you can
make the best choice for your skin type, and stop wasting your
time and money on mediocre products that don’t work as well as
they should.
I get dizzy with the selection of anti aging skin cream, botox
alternatives, as well as body lotion and creams available on the
market. What are these products, and which ones are right for
you? How do you know which products to buy?
I have spent a lot of my time and money looking for the
“magical†products that work.
Finally, I decided to keep it simple, learn about the
ingredients that will treat the needs of my skin, and use the
process of elimination to avoid the products with toxic
ingredients that I don’t want or need.
I researched the web, library and consulted various medical
references to learn about aging. I was stunned at some of my
findings and that’s when I decided to create this anti aging
skin care guide.
Keep in mind that the key to any anti aging skin care treatment
is to keep it simple.
- Eat a healthy, high-fiber / low-fat diet
- Drink
plenty of water
- Exercise at least 20 minutes a day, three
to five days a week
- Know what ingredients are in your skin
care products, and how they affect your skin
A healthy diet and exercise is anti aging because it provides
your entire body with the antioxidants it needs.
Most importantly, you need to know what ingredients should not
be in the skin care products you use.
Toxin ingredients to avoid are:
Triclosan
Triclosan is widely used in skin care products and week killers.
Yes, weed killers. Can you believe it? I am amazed to learn that
it is an anti-bacterial agent, and there is evidence that it may
contribute to creating strains of bacteria that are resistant to
antibiotics, due to its wide use in skincare products.
Dioxane
Dioxane is commonly used in skin care products, and usually
contains high concentrations of 1,4-dioxane. 1-4 dioxane is
easily absorbed through the skin. In the state of California,
1,4-dioxane is considered a chemical known to cause cancer.
Mineral Oil
Mineral oil is used by skin care manufacturers because it is
cheap. Mineral oil clogs the pores and stops your skin’s
ability to eliminate toxins, inviting acne and other disorders.
Products made with mineral oil can be contaminated with cancer
causing PAH’s, (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons).
I now have a better understanding of why so many more people are
getting various cancers than we were 10 or 20 years ago.
On a positive note, lets look at ingredients that should
definitely be in the products your use within your anti aging
skin care treatment.
Ingredients to look for
Coenzyme Q10
Also known as Nano-Lipoelle H-EQ10, which is a vitamin-like
substance that is in each cell of our bodies, and is vital for
healthy skin. Coenzyme Q10 diminishes as we get older as well as
when we are stressed.
Nano-Lipoelle H-EQ10, penetrates deeply into the skin. It has
also been confirmed by scientific studies to increase collagen
and elastin production in the skin which reduces wrinkles.
We spend a lot of energy examining the products that we consume
into our bodies, and most of us don’t think about what we put
on the outside of our bodies. When we use skin care products on
our skin, the ingredients are absorbed into our bodies.
Remember, too that when you purchase an anti aging skin care
treatment, you are also paying for the packaging. Big
manufacturers use elaborate packaging which can significantly
increase the expense associated with different products.
Also, when you buy a product, you are paying for the advertising
and marketing as well as TV commercials, magazine ads, or
celebrities to promote them. Big manufacturers spend huge
dollars in advertising which means they usually use ingredients
with poor quality in their products to offset the cost.
