If you're getting older and more interested in great skin care then the good news is that modern science really is finding some answers to the big skin care questions. How to reduce wrinkles is the biggest question asked by women getting older.
As women age they find more and more they understand why their mothers got interested in anti aging products. Wrinkles start to form, the skin on the face starts to form lines around the eyes and mouth, age spots start to develop and the skin under the neck might start to sag.
As we all age our skin starts to lose it's store of collagen and elastin, 2 very important skin proteins. The skin produces it's own stores of both elastin and collagen, but as it gets older it is less able to do this so they both reduce. This means your skin starts to lose it's elasticity.
And there's a way to see elasticity at work in your skin. Pinch a piece of skin and pull and let go and, if you're young, it will snap back into place. If you're older it will sag back slowly, because your skin elasticity is reduced.
That's elasticity at work and one of the biggest goals of good anti aging products is to improve elasticity in the dermis. And that's done by replacing lost elastin and collagen.
It has been thought that adding these to those bottles of anti aging products that you see on the shelves of your stores will help replace elastin and collagen but in fact it's been known for some time that they both have quite large molecule sizes, too large to enter the skin. So if they're in, for example, and anti aging wrinkle cream, they will just remain on the face and not get into the skin where they are needed.
So why are they still put in the bottles? Because it's a great way to sell lots of bottles because women buy skin care products with collagen and elastin listed on the label.
So if it's no use using skin care products with elastin and collagen in there what do you do to increase skin elasticity?
Well one innovative skin care company has found a ground breaking new way to do it. They increase skin elasticity by stimulating the skin to produce more of it's own. They use ingredients like Phytessence Wakame, a Japanese seaweed that is known for it's properties in promoting great skin health, and the reason why Japanese women have such good wrinkle free skin.
And they use anther patented ingredient made from the wool of sheep that help promote good skin elasticity too. And studies have shown excellent visible results within 8 weeks.
Great skin is about optimizing skin health and elasticity by promoting the replacement of skin proteins lost with age. This is the how you optimize skin care. Wrinkles reduce in a few months and the skin looks, and feels, healthier.
