Best Results in Moisturizers: Skin Moisturizer & Facial
Moisturizer to Keep Your Skin Looking Great
The total number of moisturizers on the market today can be
overwhelming. Which one is the right one for your skin type?
Well, that depends. As we get older, estrogen becomes more
important because of two structural proteins called collagen and
elastin. These two proteins actually give us structure and
elasticity. As we age, the collagen begins to break down. As it
breaks down, we start to notice fine lines and wrinkles
appearing. This is where a good facial moisturizer comes in. If
you find one that contains collagen and elastin, it can help
reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Now if you are
still young, you may not need this type of skin moisturizer. A
growing trend is to use all natural moisturizers. We will
discuss the benefits to that next.
Your skin is your largest organ and can therefore absorb into
your bloodstream certain chemicals found in today's
moisturizers. There are over 5000 chemicals used in personal
care products and that is one of the reasons people are turning
to natural moisturizers and beauty products. When it comes to a
facial moisturizer, find one that contains vitamin A and E.
These vitamins are great for your complexion and they can help
reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Getting a
cream with an SPF of 15 or greater will provide you with the
protection you need when outdoors. The sun's harmful rays can
cause some serious damage.
You can use the best, most expensive moisturizer in the world,
but your complexion won't look its best unless you do some extra
things. First, you must drink between 8 and 10 glasses of water
a day to make sure you stay hydrated. Make sure to exercise and
stay healthy. After a good work out, be sure to apply a quality
facial moisturizer. When out in the sun, wear a hat and a
sunscreen with minimum SPF 15. Remember, you don't necessarily
have to buy your skin moisturizer. There are a number of recipes
on line that tell you exactly how to make your own us
ingredients such as Aloe Vera, olive oil, cocoa butter and rose
water.
