An anti aging skin cream must have the correct ingredients to give your skin that smooth radiant glow. Most anti-aging creams don’t even come close to delivering what your skin needs. Your skin needs new collagen and elastin. It needs new cells and fibers. Let me show you what you need in anti aging cream to regain that smooth beautiful look. Also I’ll show you some ingredients to avoid.
As I mentioned, to get that new fresh look from your anti aging skin cream you need collagen and elastin. As we get older we get less. Your body needs to produce new elastin and collagen. When it does those terrible wrinkles slowly begin to leave. Then in time that new, fresh, younger looking face begins to appear
Skin’s Building Blocks
Not all proteins are alike but they are referred to as the building blocks of the skin. On such protein is called Keratin. If Keratin isn’t constructed or made the right way, it will not penetrate the skin. Therefore, most skin care products contain a useless type of “keratin”. The correct type of keratin must be in the anti aging skin cream or it is worthless. How do we find the correct type of keratin?
Ingredients that Work
Functional Keratin, also known as, Cynergy TK is a protein when added to an anti aging cream helps remove wrinkles. It is the only type that I found that really works. Other companies claim to have keratin but it is usually from the wrong source therefore doesn’t work.
From the Sea of Japan comes an ingredient that is a must for anti aging skin creams. It is called Wakame. Wakame is an algae or sea kelp that has a lot of good ingredients such as, potassium, B vitamins, iron, sodium and calcium.
A laboratory analysis of the sea kelp found that a component in it helps promote smooth and younger looking skin. And that is what anti aging creams are supposed to do.
As a extra bonus Wakame is an excellent antioxidant which will successfully fight free radicals. It will also help increase the skin’s protein level.
Antioxidants
Usually we think of antioxidants coming with the vitamins we take. But since free radicals damage skin cells it is very beneficial to include them in the skin cream.
Antioxidants like wakame, vitamin E and CoQ10 should be in anti-aging skin creams. But they also should be natural not some synthetic filler.
Special, Effective Formula
Nano-lipobelle is a special ‘nano-emulsion’ form of CoQ10, which PENETRATES DEEPLY into your skin. It is created in such a way that it will penetrate through seven layers of skin. It contains both COQ10 and vitamin E in a special emulsion created specially for use as an anti-aging skin cream. How effective is Nano-Lipobelle H-EQ10 in skin care? When applied to your skin, Nano-Lipobelle H-EQ10 can produce quite a dramatic anti-wrinkle effect, which has been confirmed by scientific studies. This is due to its ability to increase collagen and elastin production in the skin.
Ingredients to Avoid
Briefly, let’s look at a few of the things that an anti-aging skin cream should not contain: -alcohol because it is drying. (stearyl and cetearyl alcohol are fine. They are waxes and have nothing in common with the alcohols that cause skin problems.)-fragrance because it can be irritating.-sunscreen because it alone does not reduce the risk of skin cancer and some compounds are hazardous.-parabens because they are cancer causing suspects.-paraffin wax or mineral oil because they clog the pores and strip natural oils, leading to dryness.
Our skin is our largest organ. We need to be careful what touches it since whatever does could end up in our blood. This is a common sense health precaution. If you wouldn’t eat it don’t put it on your skin. Use only natural ingredients in your anti-aging skin care creams. For more information please see my website. – Thanks, Margaret Bell

What’s in Your Anti-aging Skin Cream? You Really Need to Know
Thursday, January 20th, 2011The Shocking Truth About Most Anti Aging Skin Care Products
Tuesday, January 18th, 2011Finding a high quality anti aging skin care product that is really effective can be like finding a needle in a haystack.
Many anti aging skin care products do not perform as promised.
Some of them only moisturize and several are not even very good at that.
Recently we looked at the customer reviews for a popular anti aging skin care product sold on Home Shopping Network.
The “collagen kit” as it is called was supposed to remove fine lines, lessen wrinkles, enhance the lips and soften crow’s feet around the eyes.
We didn’t find a single person that was satisfied with these anti aging skin care products.
And, I believe I know why.
First of all, the Home Shopping Network is great for jewelry, clothing and similar items.
But, when you are looking for an anti aging skin care product, you have to be able to read the fine print.
You should be able to answer these questions: What are the ingredients? What are the guarantees? What research do they have to back up their claims? Why does it cost so much?
If you skip the homework, you will end up dissatisfied and possibly with more skin problems than you had before.
Ingredients to Avoid
Purified water is often the primary ingredient in anti aging skin care products and cosmetics of all types.
It’s fine, but it doesn’t “do” anything for you.
Alcohols of various types are usually listed. Ethanol, ethyl, methanol, benzyl and isopropyl are all forms of alcohol and they are all drying.
The collagen fiber that many companies list as an ingredient in their anti aging skin care product line is derived from cow skin and is ineffective.
We all have collagen and elastin in our skin.
As we age, we lose collagen due to the sun, the wind and other environmental factors.
Cow collagen can not replace what we have lost.
It works in injections in sort of the same way that you would blow up a balloon. It does not work in creams.
Parabens are preservatives that a company may still use in anti aging skin care product, even though they have been banned in several countries, because they are believed to drive cancer tumor growth.
Diethanolamine, monoethanolamine and triethananolamine or the abbreviations DEA, MEA and TEA are sometimes used in anti aging skin care products to adjust pH levels, even though they too are believed to cause cancer and there use is restricted in Europe and many countries around the world.
Dioxane is another cancer causing ingredient that you may see.
It is sometimes used to make harsh ingredients milder.
Ingredients to Look For in an Anti Aging Skin Care Product
Cynergy TK is a patented form of keratin which has been shown in clinical trials to stimulate collagen growth, regenerate elastin and increase production of new skin-cells.
Wakame is a type of sea kelp that is clinically proven to increase levels of hyaluronic acid to those of a much younger person, thus improving elasticity, reducing bags and healing dryness and irritation.
Nano-lipobelle H EQ10 is an emulsion of vitamin E and COQ10, which is used by skin-cells to counter the effects of the sun and oxidative stress.
Stearyl and cetearyl waxes keep moisture in and create a fine thin coating that protects your face from further damage.
Only the best anti aging skin care products contain all of these ingredients.
Cost and Guarantees
Anti aging skin care products that are highly advertised or have celebrity endorsements cost more, not because of the quality ingredients they contain, but because the majority of their budget goes to pay for commercials.
COQ-10 is an expensive ingredient, but if not properly combined with vitamin E, it cannot be absorbed through the pores.
If the company does not guarantee your satisfaction, look for one that will.
The best anti aging skin care product that we have seen offers a full 90 day satisfaction guarantee.
Take the time to read the ingredients and look for the best.
Now that you know this, it would be a good idea to start looking for an anti aging skin care product that uses scientifically proven ingredients that help promote a healthy and youthful appearance for you.

The correct art and science of choosing the best Anti Aging skin care system is what shall give you the desired young skin that you are looking for.Skin aging shows its signs in the appearance of wrinkles, saggy skin, age spots, skin dryness, dark circles and dark uneven complexion on the skin. If you want to be free of all these signs of skin aging, then a scientifically proven effective anti aging skin care system is all you need.In order to choose the best anti aging skin care system, of which anti aging skin creams form a vital part, you need to research the market and scrutinize the ingredients that are being used in the various anti aging skin care products. After this analysis, you shall be in a much better position to know which products work effectively and which ones are useless hyped up anti aging skin care products.Let us look at the list of harmful chemicals and ingredients that are found in many anti aging skin care systems which claim to be the best. You might be shocked to know what type of harmful stuff is used in manufacturing such anti aging skin creams.1) Parabens – These are a class of preservatives added in anti aging skin care products to improve their shelf life. It means fatter profits for the manufacturers, but for the consumers it means the risk of cancer. Parabens have been classified as known “Carcinogens” – meaning that they are a cancer causing agent.2) Alcohols – Alchohols used in anti aging skin care products are known to cause dry and sensitive skin and are very harmful for the skin health in the long term. Some of the harmful types of alcohols used in anti aging skin creams are: ethanol, ethyl alcohol, methanol, benzyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol and SD alcohol.3) Fragrances – Fragrances are added into anti aging skin care products so that they smell nice when applied. But the cost that we pay in terms of our skin health is too big. Very harmful chemicals are used to produce these fragrances. You might find fragrances in different forms in anti aging skin creams. There are more than 4000 types of fragrances classified as carcinogens or toxic substances.These fragrances are known to cause depression, hyperactivity, mood fluctuations, irritability and adversely affect the central nervous system. Besides that, we must be very vigilant with what kind of anti aging skin care product that we use because these topical applications are literally “eaten” by our skin.

They are responsible for giving us a firm, supple, pliant and elastic skin.The anti aging skin care system that I personally use, has a latest, cutting edge natural substance called Cynergy TK. It is being used by elite and niche skincare companies and is not yet available to the big brand names.It has been pioneered in New Zealand. Clinical studies on Cynergy TK on human volunteers showed that it worked amazingly well in enhancing the collagen and elastin production in the body naturally. It also sustainably improved the skin moisture retention and skin elasticity.You can visit my website for an in depth look at the best scientifically proven natural substances which work effectively as a part of the best Anti aging skin care systems.
