Why Your Skin Needs Moisture to Prevent Premature Aging

by Dr. Farid Mostamad

"Medical experts say that nearly seventy percent of a normal adult's body is made up of water. Thus, it should make sense that our skin needs moisture to help prevent it from drying out and wrinkling. Caring for your skin is not really difficult, with just a few basic components as a daily regimen that can keep it healthy and looking young. There are four steps that everyone, both men and women, should take to keep skin looking its best.
Cleanse for Anti-Aging
The first very important step to keeping your skin healthy and young-looking is to cleanse it on a regular basis. Facial skin, which can be damaged by dirt and other environmental factors, should especially be cleansed at least twice per day. Using a mild facial cleanser, such as Celazome Botanical Hydrating Cleanser, will ensure things such as dirt and pollution particles are removed from the skin to prevent it from being damaged.
Moisturize for Youthful Skin
Many people do not realize how important it is to moisturize the skin. From head to toe, a good moisturizer will prevent the skin from drying out. Even those with oily or acne prone skin do need to moisturize to keep skin hydrated and supple.
Moisturizers work to protect and repair the skin's barrier by retaining its water content and by increasing its ability to hold and retain water. It is a good idea to choose a balanced moisturizer with an SPF 15 or higher, such as Celazome Botanical Daily Moisturizer, which can provide long-lasting moisture, as well as help prevent free radical damage and premature aging.
Protect Your Skin
Whether it is cold weather or sunny weather, it is important to protect your skin from the elements. Especially when it is sunny, however, it is always a good idea to wear a hat or sun visor to prevent the skin from being sunburned. In very cold temperatures, a scarf or other face wrap should be used to cover up and prevent drying and cracking.
Anti-Aging Hydration
Using a cream moisturizer is not the only way that you should keep your skin hydrated. To really keep your skin healthy, beautiful, and looking as young as possible, medical experts and dermatologists recommend drinking eight glasses of water each and every day. Drinking eight glasses of water per day allows your body to moisturize itself from the inside out. This small change to your skin care regimen will make a big difference is a short amount of time. Starting a similar skin care regimen which include these steps and skin care products, such as those available from Celazome, will keep your skin healthy and looking young for many years to come. The earlier you start this process, the better. When you cleanse, moisturize, protect, and hydrate your skin, you will start to notice a difference in both how you look and how you feel. Aging is inevitable, but you can prolong the process with just a few simple and easy steps."

Antiaging Skin Care: What Will Tell My Children

by Ashley Canfield

Antiaging Skin Care is one of the most researched health care issues online. Yet, it's amazing that most people don't know that our skin is the largest organ in our body and needs to have the same special care we give all our other important organs. One of the most important things we can do for ourselves is to perform some simple skin care procedures every day.
We know that there are some people who just seem to have beautiful skin while others feel they need plastic surgery and other invasive procedures to provide them with what they hope will give them the natural look they want, but with modern beauty products that is not necessarily the case.
After much scientific research today's antiaging skin care products are able to do amazing things in helping keep our skin looking healthy. The first thing is becoming aware of the fact you need to start treating your skin right and finding skin products that are a perfect match to your skin type since everyone has their own unique PH skin balance. A little research on the internet or at your favorite department store cosmetic section will help you find the best products for you. If you want to research it in more depth, consult a qualified health care practitioner. Ask about the use of Aloe Vera Products. They do wonders.
Once you have found your perfect product you need a daily routine. The first step in any antiaging skin care routine is making sure your skin is clean. Years ago my Dermatologist told me to never use a wash cloth on my face but to gently massage my cleanser or mild soap into my skin in circular motions using my finger tips and then splashing warm water over my face to rinse off. Be sure to pat your skin with a soft towel to dry it.
The next step is to follow your products recommendations usually treating your skin with a skin toner followed by a moisturizing cream or lotion. It is also recommended that you use an exfoliant or natural peel once or twice a week to remove any dead skin cells. You must then remember to cleanse and use a toner on your skin or the exfoliant may not be completely removed.
Now that you've taken care of your outer skin it is important for you to realize using the right skin products is only part of the solution, the other part is having a healthy diet. Remember the old saying, "We are what we eat."� It is a truism! It is through proper diet and nutrition, eating foods that are rich in vitamin A, C & F, that helps maintain that healthy look you are trying to achieve. Research the nutraceutical companies that provide natural products specifically formulated for anti-aging skin care. But, by all means, research these companies thoroughly.
Antiaging skin care is continuously growing as an important part of our life because, with all the advances in the areas of Bio-Technology and Nano-Technology, it's predicted that we could live to be 110 to 115 years old. As you can imagine, with all the wear-and-tear as a result of pollution like dust, bacteria, toxins, etc. - that's a lot of years of wear and tear on this important organ. Know this: The "wanting to look good"� issue for any or all of us never changes, regardless of age.

Antiaging Skin Care - Collagen Who?

by Johanna Myers

Antiaging skin care articles have a Ms. Collagen that appears every time. After researching on how Ms. Collagen has such a vital affect on our skin I decided to look her up in the dictionary. Their definition of her is "a fibrous protein found in connective tissue, bones, and cartilage."
To understand just what part Ms. Collagen plays in the antiaging skin care cycle we have to delve into what makes her so important. Collagen is the main supporting substance that's produced in the dermis or inner skin. Collagen formation and breakdown takes place inside that inner skin lying beneath the thin outer skin called the epidermis. In younger people the collagen is firm and abundant. Unfortunately as we grow older, the collagen structure begins to fall away creating wrinkles, deeper creases, that horrible sagging neck, and those baggy areas around the eyes. Increasing collagen loss also causes the elderly to bruise more easily and to be subject to skin tears.
Is there something we can do to minimize the negative affect that this breakdown of collagen has on our skin? The answer is yes. A great study published by some University of Michigan scientists that gives us hope. Their research has shown that as our skin ages, there is an increased production of the enzyme collagenase which breaks down collagen. Fibroblasts (cells in the skin that are the main producers of collagen) are an important part in firm and healthy skin. If they lose their normal stretched state they can actually collapse resulting in additional breakdown enzymes being produced. In one of their studies they tested lotions containing retinal, a form of vitamin A, and found it reduced wrinkles and skin roughness by promoting new collagen. There are also professional procedures available such as topical retinoic acid or injections of cross-linked hyaluronic acid. Collagen injections, derived from the skin of cows, works by puffing up the lower skin levels, stretching the outer level, thus helping to remove wrinkles and fine lines. It is important to note, that collagen gels, derived from the skin of cows, does not work when applied directly to the skin as the skin pores cannot absorb it. You would need to talk to your health care professional about this antiaging skin care treatment or any others, for that matter.
If you are looking for products that are alternatives to chemically created ingredients look for natural skin care products. Botanical or natural skin care products are created from plant extracts. One ingredient to look for in natural skin care products is keratin. Cynergy TK is a patented form of keratin which tests have shown stimulated collagen growth, regenerate elastin and increase production of new skin cells.
There is always that big question, "What should I look for in an anti-aging skin care product?" The first word of advice I would give is to be very cautious. Finding a good product on the internet can be difficult as you need to be able to evaluate whether there are any ingredients listed in the fine print on the label that might be harmful. An example of one of these ingredients is the preservative Parabens. Although it is believed to drive cancer tumor growth there are some companies still using it in their anti-aging skin care creams. I would say your best bet would be to research any product you intend to buy or to talk to an expert at your local vitamin or health food store. Whatever you decide to do start today as every month you wait has Ms. Collagen crying for help.
