Have you ever wondered why those fine lines and wrinkles have started appearing on your skin? This is something that almost every one of us faces at some point in our lives. Most of us then try out some kind of treatment to remove them, which doesn’t work and then we try some new product that claims to remove those wrinkles – and that doesn’t work too, and the cycle goes on.
The good news is, these fine lines and wrinkles need not be permanent. There are ways to minimize and prevent them in a safe and effective manner. How? Let’s find out.
Wrinkles can be caused by a variety of factors. Aging and sun damage are the top ones. Other causes include smoking, exposure to wind and heat, pollution, and habitual and repetitive facial expressions like frowning, smiling etc.
If you can take care of the aging and sun damage factors, most of the wrinkles can be taken care of. Let’s see how.
As we age, the Collagen and Elastin production in our body slows down. These two proteins are what make our skin elastic and firm in nature. As we begin to lose them, the skin also starts to become loose and wrinkles and lines begin to form.
The sun’s UV rays damage the collagen fibers in our skin and accelerate the process of wrinkle formation. The heat from sun light dries out our skin, which also contributes to the wrinkling of our skin.
How to avoid wrinkles
A major part of the fine lines and wrinkles can be avoided by some elementary skin care. Keep your skin hydrated by using a good moisturizer daily. When going out in the sun, apply a sunscreen with an SPF of 15 of more. Use sunglasses and a hat to shield sour face from the sun’s rays.
An effective treatment
A good skin care cream can help in preventing wrinkles from forming. Look for natural ingredients like Phytessence Wakame – a Japanese sea kelp which is rich in minerals and vitamins and nourishes the skin. It helps keep the skin soft and supple and also protects it from the UV rays of the sun and environmental pollution.
Cynergy TK – another natural ingredient derived from New Zealand sheep- stimulates the production of collagen and elastin in the body.
COQ10 is a powerful antioxidant found in natural products. It protects the skin from free radical damage, and helps in keeping the skin wrinkle-free. Since these natural ingredients are completely chemical free, you need not worry about any side effects also – which you can face when using most commercial creams.
Now go out there and look for a natural cream that can remove those fine lines and wrinkles once and for all!
