Aging skin shows itself in a variety of different ways, but the root causes leading to skin deterioration and decline are fairly common. When skin begins to wrinkle, sag or show tendencies towards dryness, it's a good indication that it has lost moisture not only on the skin's surface but also at the cellular level.
That's why aging skin moisturizers should not only provide hydration to the skin, but also contain key active ingredients targeted for moisture retention and collagen production within the body. Here are some excellent choices that offer deep skin therapy for anyone faced with the prospect of aging skin.
Xtend TK is an organic extract derived from New Zealand sheep wool that contains keratin. This essential protein is produced in our bodies and is chiefly responsible for new cell production and moisture retention. Keratin's shortfall has been that it could not be successfully absorbed by the skin when applied topically in the form of a lotion or cream.
When Xtend-TK was first discovered in 2006, it became won instant acclaim from the skin care industry since its production in "soluble" form (Functional Keratin) now gave keratin the commercial benefit of being processed as an active organic ingredient that could be absorbed by the skin. Many high quality aging skin moisturizers will contain Xtend-TK as it offers several benefits by: 1) stimulating collagen production in the skin; 2) aiding in new cell production and renewal; 3) retaining moisture in the skin; and 4) fighting free radicals.Nano Lipobelle E-Q10 This active ingredient is a soluble form of CoEnzyme Q10, an antioxidant substance created in the body that protects our cell membranes from free radicals -- highly destructive oxygen molecules in the body that cause cell damage. Like keratin, it is present in every cell within our body and contributes to energy production within our cells andto skin renewal. It also scavenges free radicals in the body which delays the onset of premature aging.CoQ10, however, faced a similar challenge to that of keratin -- it could not be easily absorbed since its molecular structure was too large to penetrate the skin. That's why aging skin moisturizers containing CoQ10 do not work.Nano Lipobelle E-Q10, however, makes absorption possible through a unique patented process that reduces the molecular structure of CoQ10 to a microscopic emulsion that allows it to effectively penetrate the skin through not only its surface, but all of its 7 layers. This deep moisture therapy revitalizes the skin at the cellular level and works to retard the effects of aging. Rich in nutrients and antioxidants, Nano Lipobelle E-Q10 is recognized for having a natural "anti-wrinkle effect," and is among the best choices to have as an active ingredient for aging skin moisturizers.Pytessence Wakame Retaining collagen and elastin in the skin is essential for healthy looking skin. Skin, as we know it would not exist without these two vital proteins that contribute to our skin's firmness, tone and elasticity. But these two proteins would be incomplete without the "glue that holds them together.That glue is called hyaluronic acid and we gradually lose it as we age. Aging skin moisturizers containing Phytessence Wakame, an organic extract of a sea kelp native to the Sea of Japan work to stimulate both hyaluronic acid and collagen production. Phytessence Wakame is also high in antioxidant value which aids in minimizing the damage caused by free radicals while offering the added benefit of having unique anti-inflammatory and immune-stimulating properties.Aging skin moisturizers containing any or all of these active ingredients will have a dramatic effect in reducing the visible signs of aging and contribute to healthier skin, more vibrant skin.
