Anti Aging Eye Cream - A Daily Must For Youthful Skin

To care for the skin around the eyes and prevent aging skin, lines and wrinkles an anti aging eye cream should be part of the daily beauty routine. An eye cream can also help to reduce crows feet, frown lines and firm and tighten the skin for a youthful appearance. The skin around the eye area shows the first signs of aging due to poor diet, toxicity, a lack of sleep, stress and environmental factors like sun exposure. With age our hormone levels change (especially in women). Lower levels of estrogen's cause dry skin and less skin elasticity which causes saggy wrinkly skin.  The skin around the eyes is about 10 times thinner than on the rest of the face. It also has less oil glands which causes a lack of natural moisture in the skin. Therefore it needs special attention and a separate anti aging eye cream. Your normal facial moisturizer could be too oily and heavy for the delicate eye area. This can cause Millie, those white bumps under the skin. Best Anti Aging Eye Cream Ingredien

Anti-Aging Skin Care Ingredients

The quest for the ultimate anti-aging ingredient..

Anti-aging skin care is in a state of constant development. With huge profits being ploughed into more and more research, cosmetic companies and dermatologists are continually taking the quest for the ultimate anti-aging ingredient up to the next level. 

So how do you pick your way through the minefield? What should you be looking for in an anti-aging skin care product to avoid wasting your hard earned cash on ingredients that simply don't do what they claim?

Two key questions to ask about any ingredient..

In our opinion there are two key questions to ask about any anti-aging skin care ingredient or product:

Firstly - is there reputable research evidence to show that the ingredient works when topically applied?  Many cosmetic manufacturers jump on the latest bandwagon from the anti-aging industry and take anti-aging ingredients that have been shown to be effective orally and add them to a skin care product.  That's fine if there is evidence that the ingredient can be absorbed through the skin and has an anti-aging effect when applied in this way.

Secondly - is the amount of the key ingredient in the product enough to make a difference? A very common approach in the cosmeceutical world - particularly at the lower end of the market - is to use the latest ingredient in a product at very low levels. This enables the manufacturer to make claims for the product based on the presence of the ingredient - even though the ingredient is present at such low levels it cannot have an anti-aging effect.

Good anti-aging skin care doesn't come cheap..

Don't be surprised to find that the best skin care products cost quite a lot of money. As a consumer you may cynically assume that this is because of expensive packaging or advertising or large salaries paid to senior executives and CEO bonuses. 

Well - it may be that this is true in some of the larger companies. What is also true is that the ingredients that truly make a difference in most anti-aging skin care products cost a lot of money for cosmetic companies to acquire - especially if used at higher levels in the product. Often the ingredients are rare or difficult to formulate and manufacture. The companies producing these effective ingredients spend a lot of money on researching, trialing and testing their products - otherwise many of them cannot legally be used.

Anti-aging research and development adds significantly to costs..

Cosmetic companies producing really effective anti-aging skin care products will also spend a lot of money on research and development before a cream or lotion is launched on the market.  All these things add to costs.  Basic levels of skin care can be bought quite cheaply but if you want anti- aging creams and lotions that make a difference then usually you have to spend more.

Some of the best anti-aging skin care ingredients to look out for…

So what are the ingredients to look out for in a good anti-aging skin care product?  There are a huge number out there - among some of the best you should look for: peptides, retina-A (vitamin A), alph-lipoic acid, DMAE,
