The Basics Of Anti-Aging Skin Care

Anti Aging Skin Care

The very basics of anti aging skin care begins with effective skin rejuvenation.  Go into any pharmacy and you will see shelves full of anti aging skin care products for skin rejuvenation, but the big question is which skin care products actually do work as they say?. 

Unfortunately there seems tto be little conclusive evidence about the multitude of anti-aging treatments flooding the marketplace and which are the best ones for anti aging.  So it is down to you to do your own research so that you can make informed decisions for developing your own skin rejuvenation regime which incorporates the anti-aging skin care techniques.

The basics of skin rejuvenation that is effective begin with the facts on anti-aging skin care treatments.  There are a number of active ingredients that have proven to be clinically effective skin rejuvenators, one of the most effective ingredients is vitamin A.

But before you look at any anti aging skin care products you need to understand what are the unique needs of your skin type. For those people who are prone to having oily skin they will only need a small amount of moisturizer once each day.  Whilst those people having dry skin will need to use moisturizer several times a day.

Anti Aging Skin Care

To maintain healthy glowing skin and reduce anti aging no matter what your skin type is you must be using a good moisturizer daily, but equally important all year round sun protection.  The moisturizer will keep the skin hydrated and using a sunscreen has the advantage of protecting itself from free radicals and harmful ultraviolet radiation that results in skin damage, discoloration, aging and even skin cancer.

It is advisable to speak with your pharmacist to discuss what are the best anti aging creams with with vitamin A that will suit your skin type, because some anti aging creams with too high a concentration of vitamin A may cause your skin irritation.  The basic rule of thumb is, the higher the concentration, the stronger the treatment.  Always read the directions carefully before you apply any anti aging products as some can be irritating to the skin.  It is always best to start slowly and gradually working your way up to higher concentrations over a period of time this will then allow your skin to adjust to the treatments better.

Another anti-aging skin rejuvenation treatment is a chemical exfoliant such as an alpha hydroxyl acid (AHA) or beta hydroxyl acid (BHA) product.  With AHA glycolic acid being the most popular of these acids. Depending on your skin's sensitivity glycolic acid can be used in concentrations of 8% up to 15%, but seek the advice of your pharmacist prior to using any products with glycolic acid.

Products containing vitamin C or CoQ10 are good antioxidants are good for skin repair The last consideration is including an antioxidant to contain the skin damaging free radicals as well as to encourage overall skin repair.  There are many natural organic skin care treatments that can used as part of your daily anti aging skin care regime and we will be posting some recipes soon.

But finally we cannot stress enough that the most critical and essential aspect to any successful skin rejuvenation regime is to use a good sunscreen, at least once a day, each and every day.
