Aging skin can be characterized by fine lines and wrinkles. But there can be more to aging skin than just that. Many aging women may have dehydrated skin, sagging skin, and hyper pigmentation spots on their faces too. We will take a look at a few ideas to help fight aging skin.
Some women with dehydrated and aging skin do not think it is necessary to cleanse their face each night. This is not the case. It is necessary to remove free radicals from the skin each night. Free radicals are destructive molecules within the skin that are formed when UV rays react with oxygen in the skin. They are responsible for damaging and dehydrating the delicate skin of the face. To maintain proper moisture levels in the skin, be sure to use a good creamy cleanser.
As women age, their skin produces less collagen and elastin. This causes skin to sag and lose it’s firmness. To help with sagging skin, look for skin care products containing collagen amino acids and hydrolyzed elastin. Both will help hydrate, moisturize and increase the skin’s firmness, resiliency and tone.
Sun spots, dark spots, age spots, whatever you call them, they are a sure sign of maturing skin. Even women who have avoided the dry sagging skin may still fall victim to hyper pigmentation on the face. To help with this always choose skin care products that include Vitamin C derivatives. Also, fairly new to the skin care world, Licorice Root Extract and Grape Extract. All three ingredients help diminish the appearance of spots and discoloration thus improving skin clarity.
Always remember, it is better to prevent aging skin than to have to correct it. Start using quality skin care products at an early age, and you will have years of beautiful youthful skin ahead of you!
