Caring for your Skin from Head to Toe

The ABC’s of Caring for your Skin from Head to Toe

At some point in your life, you will start to reflect on your aging. It might be a line that shows up or a gray hair that catches your eye as you look in the mirror. Either way, though, you will see it and it will be time to start considering the implication of growing old. You don’t want to just lie down and take it, though, do you? The number one way you can fight the effects of aging is by taking care of your skin. By taking the proper measures to care for your skin from head to toe, you will be able to reverse some of those effects of aging while at the same time improving the health of your skin as well.

What steps should you take then? The best way to remember is that you have to keep with your “ABC’s” when caring for your skin from head to toe. “A” is for anti-aging cream, “B” is for blemish control, and “C” is for collagen. If you keep those three words in mind, you will be well on your way to proper skin care and reversal of those wrinkles associated with aging. Each word is a reminder about an important step in the skin care and age reversing process.

“A” is for anti-aging cream, and that is an incredibly important step in the care of your skin. Hopefully you were properly hydrating and caring for your skin before that first wrinkle. If you weren’t, though, once you see that little aging sign it is time to spring into action. Waiting or ignoring the wrinkle is the worst thing you can do. Once you see a sign at all, application of a quality anti-aging cream will possibly stop new lines from forming while getting rid of the one or two wrinkles that have shown up already.

Though anti-aging creams are not miracle drugs or fountains of youth, they do actually help. They are made up of vital vitamins and nutrients that science has proven to rejuvenate skin. Look for an anti-aging cream that contains Retinol. Retinol is a form of Vitamin A that has been shown to rejuvenate the effects of aging on the skin.

“B” is for blemish control. Blemishes, pimples, zits if you will, are not only for teenagers. They are something that can affect your skin for your entire life. So you need to always be diligent in your search for and treatment of blemishes and potential blemishes. They can manifest themselves in a number of ways: whiteheads, blackheads, and minor inflammations. Each should be caught as early as possible since they actually can be prevented in most cases. If you can’t stop them, you can conceal or cure them with over the counter medications and skin care products. What you use will vary depending on when you catch the blemish and what kind it is. Just be sure to use the proper medication rather than squeezing and popping your blemishes which can cause scarring and in some cases can even lead to more blemishes down the road.

“C” is for collagen. Collagen is contained in your skin and is what makes it elastic and smooth. As you age, the collagen molecules in the skin begin to break down .This break down creates wrinkles and lines on your face and body. The problem in the past has been that anti-aging creams could only use partial collagen molecules because they are large and difficult to get into the skin through lotion. Recently, though, one major company developed and patented an infusion system for collagen. With it, creams can deliver whole collagen molecules into the skin. Once the collagen has been delivered, there is a noticeable difference. Your skin will have a healthy and rejuvenated glow. In addition, the wrinkles and lines that come with aging will begin to dissipate. Collagen is important, and it is the closest thing we currently have to a miracle aging cure.

If you are ready to put up a fight against the effects of aging, the process is going to start with your skin. Take the time to learn you’re “ABC’s” of skin care and you will start to look younger and your skin will begin to feel better. Remember, anti-aging cream, blemish patrol, and collagen is the key to your fight against aging skin.
