Natural Wrinkle Remedies and Those Long Words in the Ingredients
Are you frustrated with so called natural wrinkle remedies when you read the labels and you find all sorts of chemicals in them? The term natural means many different things to different people, so don't always trust what you see at your first glance of the label.
It is prudent to read all the ingredients and know what those long words in many skin care products actually are.
I found a jar of what I thought was a natural wrinkle cure cream the other day.
Glancing at the ingredients, I saw TEA.
At first, I thought it may have some tea tree oil in it, but that didn't make a lot of sense since I usually find tea tree oil in natural cleansing products and this was a moisturizing cream.
Looking closer I saw in parenthesis the long word triethanolamine.
I then knew my first thought was wrong.
This TEA (triethanolamine) is used in skincare products to adjust the pH - the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a product.
TEA is a chemical that causes allergic reactions, such as dryness of skin or eye problems.
It also could be toxic if used over a long period of time.
Thus this cream I found was not a natural wrinkle cure and was not good for my skin.
So read everything and know what those long words in the ingredients actually are and what they do for your skin.
Some of the long words you find in a natural wrinkle cure may actually be good for your skin.
Even though we don't use phytessence wakame in our every day speaking or writing, it is an extract from Japanese kelp.
Many Japanese eat it dry or fresh because it has lots of health benefits.
Finding it in your natural wrinkle remedies is great.
It curbs the activity of hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down the hyaluronic acid in the skin.
Hyaluronic acid is one of the essential elements, along with elastin and collagen, to maintain the elasticity, smoothness and tone of the skin.
Without hyaluronic acid, the collagen and elastin fibers lose their adhesiveness, which causes the skin to begin to show signs of aging.
Another long word that is beneficial in our natural wrinkle cure cream is Nano-Lippbelle H EQ10.
This is a form of CoenzymeQ10 (CoQ10).
CoQ10 is found in every cell of our body.
Exposure to the sun, aging and stress are three things that decrease the CoQ10 in our body and skin.
Thus having this substance in our natural wrinkle remedies is a health benefit.
Besides being a health benefit, scientific studies have shown it also reduces wrinkles and fine lines.
CoQ10 enhances cell activity by rejuvenating the skin.
It also nourishes the skin with antioxidants.
Antioxidants destroy the free radicals, which is one of the causes of wrinkles in the skin.
So it works on the underlying cause instead of just masking the problem, which doesn't solve it long term.
So when reading the labels of your natural wrinkle remedies don't be afraid of those long words.
Some of them will be necessary for the smooth, young looking skin and some of them will actually harm your skin and your overall health.
By educating yourself to the good and bad in skin care products you will be doing your self a big favor, which will have lasting health benefits.
