Our bodies are a true wonder of evolution. The healthy supple skin that contains, protects and describes it, is never so beautiful as when it’s entirely nude. Cosmetics, chemicals, the sun’s radiation, our harsh home and work environments, not to mention the inevitable ravages of time all work to reduce the vitality of the skin. As we get older our skin starts to lose its youthful resilience and the lives we have lived, and the things we have done remain like ghostly palimpsests.
While it is impossible to actually turn back time, contemporary skincare products have made it possible to offset some of their consequences and help restore the skin’s natural vitality and resilience. Here are just a few of the commonly used skincare terms associated with modern skin repair products.
## Probiotic
When we refer to probiotics we are referring to a wide array of microscopic organisms which live symbiotically throughout the body and bestow advantageous (and in some cases essential) effects.
## Bio-available
When a compound is referenced in terms of its bio-availability what is being referred to is the percent of the active element which is absorbed by the body and available to enter into the system for which it is intended.
## Bio-compatible
A material that’s said to be bio-compatible is capable of interacting with the cells of the body in a neutral, natural manner without provoking any toxic or allergic reactions. The more bio-compatible a material is said to be the fewer potential deleterious reactions to it.
## Ethical
This of course doesn’t so much reference a product’s impact on the body so much as its impact on society and the environment. Whenever possible you should be looking for skincare products that have not been tested on animals, whose ingredient have been responsibly obtained, and whose packaging is recyclable.
When you are thinking about various eye creams, hand creams or face moisturisers read the online and packaged literature carefully whether it is a recognized brand like the UK’s Nude Cosmetics or a smaller, lesser known brand. Know what it is you’re putting on your skin and understand the claims that are being made.
