Many of us women know that as we get older, we have to work harder to fight back the signs of aging and skin greasiness. We have all been guilty of falling for the latest miracle skin cream, the cream that sorts out all our skin care issues. We have tried many concoctions promising many wonderful results. Unfortunately the only thing these wonder products had in common was their failure to work and the mess it left our skin in. As you grow older, you body begins to produce less and less levels of the proteins collagen and elastin. These are vital proteins for maintaining the skins firmness and smoothness. These two proteins, as we age, are more and more difficult for the body to produce. This causes our skin to sag and wrinkle and makes it more and more difficult for our skin to maintain it's normal more youthful levels of moisture. If the truth was known we have probably done more harm than good as we tested our way through a multitude of lotions and creams over the years. Very often these creams and lotions contained high amounts,proportionately,of alcohol and oily substances. Initially it always looked as if it was working but ultimately the effect wore off and we ended up worse than we were before we started. A massive amount of skin care products currently on the market contains alcohol and oils that in the long term only further damage the skin.Yes, they seem to work well initially but very soon reality sets in. These creams are packed with substances that give a temporary plumpness and firmness to the skin.In truth all they are doing is blocking our pores and restricting the bodys ability to breathe through the skin.Never a good idea, let alone be of any help with skin aging and greasiness.Once again it was all an illusion. So what is the solution? The solution is to find a product that works to replenish the skins natural levels of collagen and elastin as well as hyaluronic acid. A good product will also work toward fighting oxidization due to free radicals, and not with the help of ingredients that actually increase aging and skin greasiness. Looking beyond the hype and choosing quality products is the solution. DISCLAIMER: This article is provided as information only and is not to be taken as financial advice.
