There is a new buzz in anti aging lotions on the market today. These lotions contain certain foods that you might not expect. Apples, pomegranate, rice, licorice, and mushrooms are the latest ingredients you can find in skin care products. These products promise to be the next trend setters in your skin care regiment.
Over time, dullness, wrinkles, age spots, redness, and puffiness are all signs of aging that you can expect over time. Most women (and men) experience one or more of these symptoms as they age. What you might not expect is that research is being done to combine the nutrients found in some foods into the lotions and serums that we use for our skin!
Healthy foods help nourish your body and skin. Now, newer products with newer formulations promise to take anti aging to the next level!
By now you know how vitamins feed your body. They are an essential part of big anti aging picture. The more nutrients you get, the less you show your age! That’s a fact! In fact, most women have been applying foods (especially fruits) to their faces for years with the many facial masks that contain them.
What if the products you use contained natural food extracts that benefited your skin more than if you had ingested them? Wouldn’t that be great?
Researchers are beginning to look at other foods you may not have suspected! Because your skin has pores, it will ‘drink in’ any substances that are applied to it. Most lotions are fine for normal skin however, if you have skin sensitivities, these products are worth looking into!
You shouldn’t expect miracles overnight though. Most anti aging lotions and products take 3-6 months before you see visible results. To get the most benefits, these products should be used regularly and directions for use should be followed. Also, before I posted this page, I researched the products recommended. There are a few things that I wanted to point out about them.
Beauty products have many ingredients in them. Some are natural and some are synthetic. Most products that hydrate your skin contain water as the first ingredient. That’s only sensible! Other synthetic products have to be added to most beauty products to stabilize them so they won’t spoil. You can imagine what would happen if you tried to ship ingredients without them. They would certainly spoil and be of no use to anyone. So where products do contain natural ingredients, they also should contain a small amount of stabilizers in them so they have better shelf life.
