Herbs for Acne

If you want to slow the aging of your face, natural skin care products are the perceptible choice.  The newest cellular rejuvenation discovery has studied the use of compounds that occur in nature, chiefly antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.

Why the focus on nutrients?  Astonishing discoveries have been prefabricated about how to keep people healthy on the inside and what causes them to be sick.  At some point in time, cosmetic companies lost sight of the fact that the skin is the largest organ in the body.   It needs the same things that the inside of the body needs.   In some ways, it needs even more help.

Internal organs don’t have to cope with the ruin effects of direct UV sunlight.   The outside of the body is dangerously exposed.   The face is particularly prone to photo-ageing; fine lines and wrinkles caused by exposure to sun.  We protect the rest of our body by wearing clothing most of the time.

A good wide-brimmed hat and a pair of UV conserving sunglasses can do a lot to protect the facial skin.   The trend in current years has been to include sunscreen ingredients in each skin cream on the market.   Why should we place a sunscreen in a night cream?

There is no reason and the high calibre natural skin care creams do not incorporate sunscreen ingredients, because most of them were never tested for safety.   Even the effectiveness of the sunscreens has been questioned, because the SPF rating process is inaccurate.   Sunscreens are only effective if they are reapplied on a regular basis.   What is the point of putting sunscreen in a day cream or body lotion that you apply only once daily?   There is none.

The superior companies take a different approach by using formulas rich in antioxidants to prevent photo-aging.   Natural skin care products containing the antioxidant coenzyme Q10 have even been shown to reverse sun ruin and the wrinkles caused by it. 

Coenzyme Q10 was was praised in years past as a fountain of youth.  It can be applied topically or taken orally, but the molecules included in natural skin care creams must be smaller.  Otherwise they won’t penetrate the skin’s pores into the deepest layers of skin.   Technology can improve what nature has provided.  Look for a skin cream with this ingredient for naturally younger skin.
