Why Antioxidants?
Whether you’re new to the skincare regime or looking for a new one, you’re probably aware that a new device, treatment, or product is launched almost daily! The skincare industry is quickly climbing and doesn’t look like it’s slowing down anytime soon. However, this consistent growth and change can make it difficult to figure out where to focus your time, energy, and money. For example, some people focus their approach on a detailed 10-step regime. On the other hand others say it’s ok to wash your makeup off and skip the routine.
You want to be aware of and implement into your skincare routine the antioxidants in your products and how they work. You may know that antioxidants are in some of your favorite skincare products but are not aware of what they are or how they work. It’s worth becoming familiar with this class of ingredients because antioxidants can do a world of good for your skin.
Benefits of Antioxidant Protection
Aid in Correcting Signs of Aging : Years of damage from the sun, air, and stress result in collagen breakdown in your skin. This damage can hinder the skin’s natural repair process. You’ll certainly see these effects as loose skin, acne, blotchiness, lines, and wrinkles. Antioxidants can help prevent and correct these effects and give skin a more youthful glow. Whether you eat antioxidants or put them right on your skin – remember that it’s beneficial overall!
Can Help Prevent Sun Damage: All antioxidants are said to have anti-inflammatory properties- they increase your skin’s response to the sun’s harmful rays! The result? Prevention against sunburn, sun damage, and above all photoaging.
Help Skin Repair Itself : Inflammation can slow down the skin’s renewal process. Therefore, antioxidants allow the skin to repair itself and correct visible damage.
What Antioxidant Protection Are Out There?
VITAMIN C: This is one of the most known antioxidants – Vitamin C has skin health benefits that boost collagen production and ultimately fade those dark spots.
VITAMIN A: If there’s one anti-aging ingredient that’s proven to help turn back the aging clock, it’s Vitamin A. Retinol -A derivative of vitamin A, can penetrate deep enough into the skin to stimulate your skin’s collagen production and speed up the repair and renewal process.
VITAMIN E: Vitamin E is essential for your organs to function correctly! Probably the most potent antioxidant with the ability to accelerate the skin’s healing process. You will often find Vitamin E in your creams, moisturizers, and lotions.
RESVERATROL: Found mainly in the skins of fruits like grapes and berries, peanuts, tea, and red wine. Essentially is a substance that protects plants from air pollution, infection, UV rays, and climate changes. Therefore, it is said to help protect our skin in the same way!
