Skin Care Through The Ages

January 6th, 2010

Healthy, radiant skin can be had at any point in your life. The important thing is to work out which skin benefiting ingredients you should look for in products depending on your age. Using the wrong products on your skin could end up costing you a lot financially and physically as the wrong products could cause more damage to your skin. Using harsh exfoliation and or micro dermabrasion on your skin for example could cause more trauma to the skin that cannot always be reversed.

It is important to learn how the skin functions. The skin weighs about 2.7 kg and is the largest organ in the body. This skin is quite amazing in that it does so many things for us; it serves as a protective shield against heat, infection, and injury. It helps to regulate body temperature, it can store fat, water and vitamin D and senses both pleasant and painful stimulation. the skin is made up of three layers: The Epidermis, the Dermis and the Subcutis.

Skincare in Your Fifties

January 6th, 2010

Your skincare regime in your 50s should consist of staying out of the sun, wearing sunblock; cleansing, toning and moisturizing twice daily. Continue to use eye serums and creams high in Vitamins A, C and E. (see Skincare in Your Thirties)

Mature and dry skin can really benefit from moisturizers that high in lipids like ceramides. Grapeseed extract and vitamin E can help protect against the decrease in lipids as we get older. Lipids play a major role in keeping the skin moist and stopping it from drying out.

A natural alternative to oestrogen therapy is to use a skin cream that contains phyto-oestrogens. Phyto-oestrogens include: fresh flaxseed oil from the fridge and soy, wild yam, red clover and dong quai.
