| - | Your skin is a really clever organ. No matter which in the arsenal of developments in anti aging skin care items are proudly emblazoned on the bottle and in the marketing literature, your skin knows the truth. And whilst it might play the game for a little while, plumping up nicely to give the look of looking younger, far 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. Don't be fooled.

| - | Skin care is massive organization. And there is nothing at all incorrect with that. But whilst its very entertaining to browse via the shelves and try out the newest 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 outdoors globe, bearer of our expressions, our joys, our grief. Guard against the invisible tide of micro-organisms that seek to infiltrate our body's initial defence against disease and infection. This complicated array of cells that each month regenerate and shed, within the constraints of age and the high quality of our diet. Our skin is a hard worker and significantly unappreciated. Often barely nourished despite the cash spent on technological promises, we still hope the dream of youth slipping away will be restored.

| - | There is a way to slow the approach of aging. But not by applying higher tech anti aging creams. By understanding specifically what our skin is, we can discover much better techniques of providing it what it requirements. And consequently, we will discover ourselves with what we want - more youthful skin.

| - | Our skin is composed of 3 primary layers. The outside layer that we apply our anti aging skin care products to is the epidermis. This in turn has 4 to five layers, depending on where it is in the physique, and whether there is a lot of hair on it. The top layer of the epidermis, the stratum corneum, serves as a barrier. This is exactly where the cells are continually shedding and exactly where new cells are eventually pushed up to. These cells have no blood provide, and hence no nutrients or oxygen carried in the blood reach these cells. They are essentially dead in that they cannot engage in the metabolic processes that living cells do. But they do serve really crucial functions. By producing an impenetrable barrier, they preserve out bacteria and other micro organisms, and are hence portion of the immune method. But this really function also serves to keep out most of the high-priced components in anti aging treatments. And no matter how well an ingredient performs in a laboratory test tube, that does not necessarily translate to reaching the deeper layers of your skin, exactly where the real anti aging perform requires place. Most skin care products perform only on the stratum corneum, and that is their downfall as anti aging secret agents.

| - | The next layer down from the best 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 current collagen is broken down in the month-to-month cellular cycle. The production of collagen slows with age and variables like smoking, sun exposure, pressure and inadequate nutrition. Other skin nutrients like elastin and hyaluronic acid are discovered right here. Hyaluronic acid for instance, aids hold water. As the dermis is composed of living cells, it has a blood provide, which transport nutrients and oxygen to the cells. These capillaries also transport cellular wast like carbon dioxide away. Right here you are going to also locate 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 major 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 stress, blood, lymph vessels, fat cells, collagen and elastin. The subcutaneous layer thins as we age, which creates a much more angular appearance.

| - | Moisturizers obtain their short-term impact by trapping water already in the skin. They primarily act as a seal, they do not provide extra water or 'moisture'. The handful of products that actually operate on the deeper layers of the skin are the Retin-A skin care treatments. Vitamin C, although well-known, has not conclusively demonstrated that it can attain the deeper layers, the dermis. And even if it did, there is not sufficient proof that it actually does something there.

| - | But the news is not all poor. We can do one thing, and its not rocket science. If we supply the skin with the nutrients it needs, with great, fresh fruit and vegetables, and very good good quality fats and protein, or even supplements as a enhance. Then, and only then, will we stall the clock at a far more agreeable hour.
