BEAUTY KLINIC

The anti aging beauty industry is one that is ever-changing. Keeping up with the trends and latest ingredients of eye cream across the multitude of brands can be quite a feat. Perhaps because of misleading claims and promises of miracles, we have become a bit skeptical ” and rightfully so. Here is your 2009 guide on trends you can be on the lookout for while making that important ” and sometimes expensive ” decision on anti aging skin care.

Trend 1: Cosmeceuticals. Cosmeceuticals are among some of the products people are paying attention to simply because they make perfect sense. Mixing cosmetics and pharmaceuticals in effort to medicinally relieve certain problem areas like puffy eyes and dark circles is pure genious - especially when so many people need more than the over-the-counter strength skin care lines that are available. Cosmeceuticals are on the rise due to advancements in ingredients and skin care technologies. Clinique Medical Skin Care is a perfect example of this approach to anti aging skin care which was introduced by Clinique (a maker of cosmetics) and Allergan (a leader in medical aesthetics). Some cosmeceuticals, like Clinique Medical, are available only at a doctors office, while others popular ones like Perricone MD are readily available just about anywhere online.

Trend 2: Caffeine and peptides. Products containing peptides and caffeine are on the rise. Studies are relatively inconclusive as to what the long term benefits are, but caffeine is shown to reduce puffy eyes and increase circulation while peptides are claimed to have anti-inflammatory properties to aid in adult acne and other serious skin conditions. Anti aging peptides will continue to be at the forefront of age-reducing product lines in your local drugstore. A study at the World Congress of Dermatology in Paris found that a 50% reduction in wrinkles is possible when the skin is treated with a high concentration of peptides. And those ever-so-popular home remedies suggest using the caffeine properties in tea to relieve puffy eyes.

Trend 3: Anti-inflammatories and topical antiseptics. You will start to see these antiseptics and anti-inflammatories in anti aging skin creams and makeup in the form of: tea tree leaf, lavender oils, and algae extracts. They all will provide healing to delicate eye skin. Anti-inflammatories are on the up-rise as we are becoming more aware that the inflammation is what leads to many degenerative diseases and skin problems.

Trend 4: Skin care begins on the inside. There is so much talk on the proven benefits of antioxidants. Products as well as supplements are being developed because everyone wants to eat healthier in order to improve their skin. Cosmetic companies are now including along with antioxidants - nutraceuticals, botanicals, and green tea in their skin care. They are believed to penetrate the skin quickly in order to nourish and protect skin. Dermalogica is one skin care line that offers potent antioxidants. Some potent antioxidants that you will be hearing a lot about, thus seeing in skin care are: goji berry, turmeric root extract, resveratrol from grapes, and the acai berry.

Trend 5: Probiotics. Some skin care lines are introducing probiotics into their formulas. Probiotics refer to foods that contain the good type of bacteria that are similar to those normally found in your body. Yogurt is one such example as well as the recently introduced Activia by Dannon. There has been a sudden growing scientific interest in probiotics and what they can do for your body. The companies who are adding probiotics to their products believe that it softens and exfoliates the skin. The only catch here is that most available research supports skin benefits when probiotics are taken internally as opposed to topically.

Be on the lookout for brands of skin care that support these trends as they are companies that are more likely to produce products that will give you optimal results. Anti aging products can cost a pretty penny, so for this reason alone, I encourage you to do your research and keep up on the lasts breakthroughs as they are continually emerging.

You’ve probably never heard of Phytessence Wakame. If you’re interested in the best skin care products that money can buy you really ought to know about Phytessence Wakame though. It’s a stunning breakthrough in skin care science.

Strange sounding substance isn′t it? Phytessence Wakame is actually a seaweed found around the coast of Japan. The Japanese have eaten Phytessence Wakame for hundreds of years, both dried and fresh.

And you may also know that Japanese women have some of the worlds best skin right into old age. Eating Phytessence Wakame has a lot to do with it.

So why is Phytessence Wakame so good for the skin? What does it have that makes it perhaps one of the most important modern ingredients for the best skin care products?

Phytessence Wakame is packed with all sorts of vitamins and minerals that are good for skin health. Most of the B group vitamins, which are good for soothing skin inflammation, calcium at a concentration 15 times higher than milk and many others.

It is also high in iron and potassium, and all these ingredients together combine to help maintain the skin′s moisture balance, keeping your skin hydrated, which in turn keeps it looking young and healthy.

And there’s more good news. The ingredients of Phytessence Wakame help inhibit the effects of hyaluronidase.

Now you might be saying what in the world is hyaluronidase?

Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid in our skin. And hyaluronic acid is very important to our skin. The effect of hyaluronic acid, when combined with elastin and collagen, is to maintain the smoothness and elasticity of your skin right into old age. It keeps your skin toned and looking youthful. It makes sure that your skin not only looks youthful, but is healthy too.

So you want plenty of hyaluronic acid. So if hyaluronidase breaks it down you don′t want too much hyaluronidase. And if Phytessence Wakame helps inhibit the effects of hyaluronidase then it is doing a world of good work for your skin. It’s helping inhibit one of the main factors contributing to skin decline with age.

But unfortunately you are unlikely to find Phytessence Wakame in any of those big name skin care and anti aging products that you see on the TV and on the shelves. The good news is that you can find great skin care products, in fact the worlds best skin care products, containing Phytessence Wakame. But not in any of the big brands.

The reason? Phytessence Wakame is expensive and the big brands don′t use it for that reason. However the small niche company that makes the worlds best skin care products does use it, because they don′t spend millions on TV advertising, instead they spend big on product quality.

If you′re interested in skin care you might know about keratin. It’s very important for optimum skin health, and now there’s a new form of keratin called Cynergy TK, and it can do wonders for your skin. It’s used as an ingredient in the best skin care products and best anti aging products on the planet, and it’s showing stunning test results.

But you might be thinking that there’s already keratin in my big brand name skin care products that I use now? What is it that Cynergy TK does for my skin that I′m not getting from my current skin care products?

Yes there is keratin in many skin care and anti-aging products, but Cynergy TK is a form of keratin that is far more useful to your skin than the keratin you′re getting in your skin care products now.

Keratin is an extremely strong protein found right throughout the body, but in particular in your skin, as well as your nails, hair and some other parts of your body. It helps make your skin more elastic and pliable, and to combat wrinkles and sagging in your skin.

As you age your skin loses some keratin, and this contributes to the aging of the skin and the aging signs like wrinkles and fine lines around your face and eyes. Loss of keratin is not the only cause, but certainly one of the biggies.

So why should’t you just buy some of those big brand name anti-aging products with keratin in them. Won’t that replace the lost keratin?

As keratin is found in parts of your body like hair and skin and nails, and as it is also found in the hooves and horns of animals, the big brand companies source their keratin from the hooves and horns of animals. The keratin is extracted by using heat and acid, and this changes the form of the keratin. It has, in effect, been de-naturalized by a process called “hydrolyzation”, and as the form of the keratin is changed it’s usefulness to the skin is also changed.

Cynergy TK is also a source of keratin, but the manufacturer of Cynergy TK extracts the keratin in an entirely different way. The keratin is taken from the wool of sheep, and is extracted by a process that doesn’t involve heat or acid. In fact the process of extracting the keratin is so advanced that it has been patented. Keratin extracted this way if fully biologically available to your skin.

The result is what’s called “functional keratin” and the effects on skin are amazing. It is extremely similar to the protein found in human skin.

Functional keratin is like a “liquid skin”. It is so effective that it actually gets collagen and elastin to start regrowing. Collagen and elastin are very important components of your skin, and your skin starts to lose collagen and elastin as you age. So if Cyntergy TK starts the collagen and elastin growing again your skin is winning!

And Cynergy TK has some other skin benefits as well. It contains some other essential skin nutrients like copper and zinc which help increase skin thickness. And regrowing collagen helps reduce skin wrinkles by increasing skin elasticity.

If you haven’t heard of skin keratin before you now know a little about it, why it is important to your skin and why your skin starts to wrinkle and sag as it ages. And why using a skin care product with Cynergy TK in it works to help replace lost keratin and collagen as well.

Will you find Cynergy TK in your big brand name skin care and anti aging products? No. It’s too expensive.

So can you find a skin care company that makes aging products with Cynergy TK in them? Yes, but I′ll bet you′ve never heard of them. And their products are reasonably priced because they don’t spend millions on TV advertising, and that’s why it’s unlikely you′ve heard of them.

So head over to my website to find out more about skin care products containing Cynergy TK.

It used to be the case that if you wanted to erase the signs of aging you had to undergo expensive and painful surgeries. Today that is no longer the case, with the advent of very potent face lift creams that aim to accomplish the same task. Beauty science has grown in leaps and bounds over the years and now presents a very viable solution.

One of the key characteristics that you want to look for is a robust moisturizer. Keeping the skin well moisturized really helps to reduce the signs of aging. Look for a cream that will get deep into your facial tissue and replenish needed nutrients. This will bring back your youthful glow, that dry skin just doesn’t have.

You want to rid your face of harmful bacteria, so look for a lift cream that really cleans deep into your pores. You want to get them unclogged and keep them unclogged. This makes your skin healthier and it will show.

These face lift creams will gently peel away the top layer of the dermis, leaving a healthier, brighter layer below. It will also work to firm up areas that have begun to sag and get rid of fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth and eyes. All with out a scalpel or needle.

There is no question that surgery and other procedures can be very costly and painful as well. The results are striking, but often not very natural looking. You can think of several celebrities that now have a permanent plastic appearance. An effective anti-aging cream will tighten up your face while leaving it with a much more natural looking appearance.

If you want similar results to what surgery provides, without the expense of the discomfort, you really should try out a face lift cream. Read some online reviews so that you can be sure you are getting a product that has proven itself. Then follow the directions and watch for the results. If you are aren’t satisfied, you can often return the product for a full refund.

Does it worry you that the big brand name skin care products and anti aging products often contain suspect ingredients that may be dangerous and can also be damaging to your skin? It may well surprise you that this is the case but sadly it’s true. That’s why so many women are now turning to the best natural skin care brands.

It may come as a surprise to you to find out that the big brand name skin care and anti aging products can contain chemical ingredients that aren’t necessarily healthy. This includes products like cosmetics and personal, beauty and body care products too. It’s such a problem that there are now several organizations set up to combat it.

Here’s a few examples to demonstrate the problem.

Over 50% of lipsticks tested in a recent study had lead in them.

And another study found that many teenage girls have elevated hormone levels that come from the cosmetics they use.

That’s just 2 examples but there are many many more.

Can you see now why so many women are now starting to look for natural organic skin care products? And trying to find the best natural skin care brand?

That’s because there are excellent reasons. The best natural skin care products don’t contain dangerous ingredients and they work better than the big brand name anti aging products.

How do they work better? The reason is that natural skin care and anti aging products use natural ingredients that are known to be safe and effective skin care ingredients. The big brands concentrate on cheap ingredients. These are chemical alternatives that don’t work so well.

Ingredients like extracts from the wool of sheep, from a Japanese seaweed and oils from the nuts of trees and fruits, like avocado oil.

But it’s not easy finding the best natural skin care brand. Here’s 2 tests to begin with. First, did the company sign the compact offered by the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics? The compact is a pledge to use only known safe ingredients. And second, do they offer a full money back guarantee on their products?

There is one natural skin care producer that has done both these things, and they make stunningly effective skin care products, and because they don’t have a marketing budget their products are very competitively priced.

They make the best natural skin care brand.
