We all have asked ourselves at least once what the best remedy to reduce wrinkles is, and that is right what this article deals with. Here there are the contents of the article:
First of all, let's define what wrinkles are: wrinkles are structural alterations of the skin that loses its elasticity and gets thinner as time goes by, until creating a groove, that is a wrinkle. As we get older, our organism produces less collagen and elastin, which are the proteins responsible for skin's elasticity and tone. One of the first reasons why wrinkles occur is then the natural skin aging process that leads to a reduction in the production of such proteins.
However, aging is not the one and only reasons why wrinkles occur: we also have to include:
So, wrinkles mainly occur because of a reduction in collagen and elastin production. Before going on with suggesting you remedies to reduce wrinkles, we'd want you to know that to eliminate wirnkles forever there exists a solution, which is undergoing treatments of cosmetic surgery. However, before choosing this way, which often is invasive and expensive, we want to suggest you greener and more natural remedies to minimise wrinkles.
Just a little clarification: if your wrinkles are caused by your facial expressions, try to combine the action of specific products with facial gymnastics and massages!
Either way, if you would like to reduce wrinkles, we suggest you make small changes in your everyday life and include anti-age products in your beauty routine. First of all, to stay healthy outiside you have to start from the inside: make sure to drink at least 2L of water everyday, thus preventing the skin from getting thinner and drier; try to include food rich in vitamin C, which is a powerful antioxidant, in your diet. It can be found in citrus fruits, kiwis, berries, and cabbages.
As to your skin care, we are about to deal with it soon. In the meantime, just make sure to protect your skin using a sunscreen even during winter. To do so, we suggest you use our Antipollution firming face cream - High Protection SPF 30. As to your lifestyle, try to avoid smoking and drinking too much, and make sure to have enough sleep.
We have just suggested you a few small changes you should make to your lifestile in order to reduce wrinkles. But we know that you have been waiting for this...and now the time to deal with anti-wrinkles skin care routine has come! What can be used to treat winkles? Peptides are very effective against them and once you have tried using them, we know that you will never go back. If you don't know what peptides are and what benefits they have in reducing wrinkles, we are here to tell you.
Peptides are sequences of amino acids that constitute proteins: to make it simpler, just imagine them as small bricks on which proteins are built. Peptides are naturally present in our organism and they build proteins like collagen and elastin. And as we know that as we get older our organism reduce their production, it is essential to use products that contain peptides to stimulate it again.
In addition, peptides have many other beneficial properties for our skin:
Peptides are an ideal ally to counteract the presence of wrinkles and other signs of time, as they make the organism both stimulate and improve many skin functions, like skin renewal. Peptides are also highly tollerated by all skin types, even the most sensitive ones, and you will soon see that if you stop using them, your skin may go back to its original condition. For this reason, keep using them, or even better, combine their action with other Pure Actives.
If you're looking for a peptide-based face serum, try our Peptides Complex with Sacha Inchi, a Pure Active with firming, toning, and lifting action.
Peptides Complex contains a hexapeptide, composed of 6 plant-derived amino acids obtained through fermentation, and Sacha Inchi extract, itself rich in peptides, a perennial plant from South America. The combination of these two ingredients effectively and comprehensively acts on the rejuvenation of the face and décolleté.
Peptides Complex with Sacha Inchi is therefore able to:
We have mentioned that one way to counteract the appearance of wrinkles is to maintain correct levels of hydration. In addition to drinking at least 2 liters of water a day to prevent the skin from drying out and thinning, use Hyaluronic Acid for moisturizing and lifting action – our best-seller anti-aging face serum!
Our Hyaluronic Acid is highly effective because it is composed of three different molecular weights mixed together:
We can define it as a targeted treatment against wrinkles, giving the skin an immediate and lasting lifting effect, reshaping the features of the face and décolleté. When combined with peptides, hyaluronic acid enhances its moisturizing properties because peptides improve the tone and elasticity of the skin, stimulating collagen production and thus reducing wrinkles.
Do you remember about retinol? Also known as provitamin A, retinol has been used for many years in cosmetics, since the 1980s. In particular, it was used in antiage products to fight skin aging and to stimulate collagen production. Its lifting effect is really effective, so what is the problem with retinol? Retinol commonly contained in cosmetics products is photosensitizing and highly irritating. What is the solution? Phyoretinol, the organic alternative to retinol.
Phytoretinol is a Pure Active with anitaging effects that contributes to skin renewal and to collagen production. It is plant-based and it gently works on the skin by counteracting wrinkles, regenerating skin cells, and giving a lasting lifting effect. Day by day, you will notice all the benefits that Phyoretinol give to your skin. If combined with peptides, these Pure Actives boost their antiwrinkles and antioxidant properties.
You still haven't found the right combination for your skin? Try to combine Peptides Complex with Plant Collagen: this Pure Active has lifting and firming effects that provide the skin with the right proteins and support it needs to fight signs of time. It also moisturizes and protects the skin from external agents.
Plant Collagen comes from the combination of two extract obtained by the fruit of Kigelia Africana and the bark of Quillaja Saponaria, rich in peptides and flavonoids respectively, and that, once in synergy, unleash their powerful elasticising, toning and lifting actions. In addition to nourishing and repairing the skin, these precious active ingredients provide an immediate natural tightening effect. As Plant Collagen already has Peptides in its formula, you can use it pure before applying face cream, or as a booster by adding 1 or 2 drops of it in your favourite face cream or serum. Plant Collagen will make the texture of your cream much lighter and easier to absorbe.
