How to Keep Your Face Young – 3 Ways to Keep an Aging Body Looking Amazing
Posted by siravich in Retinol Cream on January 20, 2012
Learning how to keep your face young is important because that is the first thing people see when they bump into you. It could mean the difference between getting the man (or woman) you want or getting that job you’ve always wanted.
Let’s be honest, beauty plays a big role in our society whether we admit it or not, so looking your best is important. Luckily, there have been many advances made in the last few years that allow you to take care of your skin naturally and look better now and in the future.
A few of the ingredients that I am about to list are some of the ones that have helped me look younger than most of my friends and family, so make sure you look these up when you’re looking for skin creams, moisturizers, lotions, gels and serums.
1. Retinol is a topical ingredient that is very powerful with proven anti-aging effects. It helps promote collagen production, reduce fine lines and wrinkles effectively. Retinol has also been proven to improve your skin tone, skin color and reduce patches on your skin.
2. Alpha-Lipoic Acid has been called a universal antioxidant for its ability to be both water and fat-soluble. This means it can be absorbed by your skin easily and help protect your body and skin from free radicals from the inside out.
3. Vitamin C is another good ingredient that will help your body produce more collagen and elastin, which keeps your skin elastic, firm and young. Vitamin C can be found in oranges, kiwi fruit and almost any other fruit available. It is especially powerful when applied topically in a natural skincare line.
Great Christmas Gifts For Mom
Posted by siravich in Retinol Cream on January 9, 2012
It’s that time of year again when people are trying to figure out Christmas gift ideas for mom. Women love skin care items any time of the year and receiving them during the holidays makes it even better.
Skin care products can vary dramatically with prices. Keeping that in mind, below are a few gifts ideas for any budget. The list starts from the highest and trickles down to the lowest.
More than likely, mom already has her favorite skin care routines in place, so these gift ideas will enhance what she already has in her repertoire.
Anti-Aging Technology:
Anti-aging technology is totally changing at-home skin care. For years, women had only creams and serums, but now skin care has jumped to a whole new level. There are many devices to choose from that would make wonderful Christmas gift ideas. But whatever is given to mom make sure that it’s a FDA cleared device.
One to look for is microcurrent technology. It actually regenerates muscles underneath the skin, is painless, lifts slack skin, and shows immediate results.
LED light therapy is another hand-held product turning heads. This at-home tool is so gentle it’s good for daily use to defy premature wrinkles. When buying mom’s Christmas gift, be sure to find red, amber and infrared LED light. All three lights promote collagen and elastin. And every mom out there wants younger looking skin.
Both of these products are in the high $200 price range.
Body Moisturizer:
While mom may already have a facial moisturizer she uses, wintertime is the perfect time to buy her a body moisturizer. If she’s using regular soap for bathing, her skin is getting dehydrated. A good moisturizer is going to add water back into the skin to make it soft and supple.
Body moisturizers come in butters, creams, lotions, oils, and ointments.
Also in this category are anti aging body moisturizers. To find the best one for mom, look for ingredients such as:
• Emollients
• Glucosamine
• Lactic acid
• Retinol
A good body moisturizer may cost anywhere from $35 to $80.
Lip Care:
The cold and windy holiday weather brings chapped and dry lips. So, another Christmas gift idea for mom or even a stocking stuffer for her would be lip care treatments.
Since every lip balm should have a sun protection factor, visit the Skin Cancer Foundation website for some recommended product listings. Avoid petroleum-derived products; it leads to more dry lips.
Prices for lip treatments can range from $10 to $50. Other great formulas to look for are:
Aloe Vera
Anti-Ozonate
Coconut Oil
Green Tea Extract
Shea Butter
Vitamin E and C
A great skin care Christmas gift for mom will make her look and feel younger. And gifts like that are truly priceless.

Current skin condition: Many, MANY tiny little bumps all over skin, especially forehead and chin area due to mini breakout. Scars still pretty visible! That’s about it. Kind of reaching a plateau here…skin condition remaining pretty stagnant!! Just hope that within a couple of months, the scars will be gone!! Or at least dramatically lightened. Have a good day
