| - | Your skin is a extremely clever organ. No matter which in the arsenal of developments in anti aging skin care goods are proudly emblazoned on the bottle and in the advertising and marketing literature, your skin knows the truth. And whilst it could play the game for a little even though, plumping up nicely to give the appearance of hunting younger, much more even, and significantly less lined, this is only a temporary, somewhat cosmetic ruse. It is really a biological trick of the light, a chimeraic nod to the quest for youth. Never be fooled.

| - | Skin care is large company. And there's nothing at all incorrect with that. But while its hugely entertaining to browse by way of the shelves and try out the most current pedigree of skin cream, these foot soldiers in the war on wrinkles meet a somewhat tenacious and uncooperative foe in our skin.

| - | Our skin. This multi-layered emissary to the outside globe, bearer of our expressions, our joys, our grief. Guard against the invisible tide of micro-organisms that seek to infiltrate our body's first defence against disease and infection. This complex array of cells that each and every month regenerate and shed, inside the constraints of age and the top quality of our diet. Our skin is a challenging worker and significantly unappreciated. Often barely nourished despite the money spent on technological promises, we nevertheless hope the dream of youth slipping away will be restored.

| - | There is a way to slow the method of aging. But not by applying higher tech anti aging creams. By understanding exactly what our skin is, we can locate far better methods of giving it what it needs. And consequently, we will find ourselves with what we want - much more youthful skin.

| - | Our skin is composed of 3 primary layers. The outside layer that we apply our anti aging skin care goods to is the epidermis. This in turn has 4 to 5 layers, depending on where it is in the physique, and no matter whether there is a lot of hair on it. The top layer of the epidermis, the stratum corneum, serves as a barrier. This is where the cells are continually shedding and exactly where new cells are ultimately pushed up to. These cells have no blood supply, and therefore no nutrients or oxygen carried in the blood reach these cells. They are basically dead in that they can't engage in the metabolic processes that living cells do. But they do serve extremely important functions. By creating an impenetrable barrier, they maintain out bacteria and other micro organisms, and are as a result part of the immune system. But this really function also serves to keep out most of the high-priced ingredients in anti aging treatments. And no matter how nicely an ingredient performs in a laboratory test tube, that does not necessarily translate to reaching the deeper layers of your skin, where the real anti aging perform takes spot. Most skin care goods perform only on the stratum corneum, and that is their downfall as anti aging secret agents.

| - | The subsequent layer down from the top is the dermis. This is the layer exactly where wrinkles develop. The dermis consists of living cells, and they are responsible for the structure, integrity and elasticity of the skin. Right here collagen is regenerated while existing collagen is broken down in the monthly cellular cycle. The production of collagen slows with age and elements like smoking, sun exposure, stress and inadequate nutrition. Other skin nutrients like elastin and hyaluronic acid are found here. Hyaluronic acid for instance, aids hold water. As the dermis is composed of living cells, it has a blood supply, which transport nutrients and oxygen to the cells. These capillaries also transport cellular wast like carbon dioxide away. Here you are going to also discover lymph vessels, sebaceous and sweat glands, hair follicles, and nerve endings for heat and cold.

| - | Fibers from the dermis extend down and into the next primary layer, the subcutaneous layer. They anchor the skin to it. The subcutaneous layer in turn attaches to organs like bone and muscles underneath. Here are nerve endings that are sensitive to pressure, blood, lymph vessels, fat cells, collagen and elastin. The subcutaneous layer thins as we age, which creates a a lot more angular look.

| - | Moisturizers obtain their short-term effect by trapping water already in the skin. They essentially act as a seal, they do not give added water or 'moisture'. The handful of goods that actually function on the deeper layers of the skin are the Retin-A skin care treatment options. Vitamin C, though popular, has not conclusively demonstrated that it can reach the deeper layers, the dermis. And even if it did, there is not adequate proof that it in fact does something there.

| - | But the news is not all bad. We can do something, and its not rocket science. If we provide the skin with the nutrients it requirements, with good, fresh fruit and vegetables, and good high quality fats and protein, or even supplements as a increase. Then, and only then, will we stall the clock at a far more agreeable hour.
