Anti-Aging Tips
January 27, 2009
The first signs of aging are generally seen on the most visible part of our body and that is our skin. Because our skin bears a lot of wear and tear everyday, if you do not care for it properly, it will soon show signs of aging that you will not be able to hide.
When skin starts to age, it starts losing elasticity. This is the first step towards aging. Therefore, the first step towards anti-aging is restoring the lost elasticity of the skin. Here are some facts about aging skin that you will need to know.
What is the significance of collagen?
Collagen acts like a cushion and pumps up our skin so that it looks plump and healthy. Skincare products that contain retinoids can actually help to boost collagen and hence keep your skin young-looking.
How can I care for my eyelids?
Eyelids are the first to become irritated if not cared for. Therefore, moisturise them at bed time so that they can fight water loss and hence cracking.
How can I defy wrinkles and fine lines?
First and foremost, you need to protect yourself from the sun. UV rays of the sun can cause your skin to damage and wrinkle. Therefore, protect yourself by wearing suitable sunglasses and sunscreen. Creams containing retinoids, chemical peels or lasers are also seen to be helpful to prevent these signs of aging. If your skin products contain vitamin or botanical anti-oxidants then they are also good. If these products can influence cell regulation peptides then they will prove to be very effective.
Which is a better choice, cream or lotion?
Cream is the better choice because it will replenish your skin of lost moisture better than lotion and it will prevent it from itching.
What about wrinkles that are already there because of sun damage?
Coenzyme Q 10 is proactive in reducing wrinkles. This is an anti-oxidant that is synthesised in your cells. This is effective in reversing wrinkles that are present because of sun damage.
How to get rid of Crow’s feet?
You should never forget to apply sunscreen, even if it is not too sunny. However, do not go crazy and avoid applying it too close to the eyes. You can add further protection by covering yourself with protective eyewear; wraparound sunglasses are ideal.
Is there a real solution for wrinkles?
This will surely disappoint many, but the fact is that is just not possible. However, you can reduce them with moisturisers and the rest you will have to live with.
