Learn What Makes A Good Wrinkle Cream
A good wrinkle cream is one that fills in the fine lines on your face giving you a younger look. Many beauty skin care lines offer creams that are anti-wrinkle. These creams need to be used as directed. But, what makes a good wrinkle cream is the ingredient called antioxidant.
When the skin ages it tends to breakdown and during this process allows for oxygen to escape. This escaping oxygen is one of the main causes of wrinkles, but this can be slowed down by anti-oxidants.
There are two main ingredients that work as anti-oxidants: Green Tea Extract and Retinol. When compared with each other, Retinol is the more effective. Retinol is essential Vitamin A and products that contain in are called Tritonin.
Skin care products that contain Green Tea are extremely effective at fighting free radicals that increase the breakdown of molecules. It is important to note, women who plan on becoming pregnant or already are should not use products that contain Vitamin A.
Alpha hydroxy acids in wrinkle creams act as an exfoliant. The upper cells are flushed off and the newer cells are exposed. The problem is that sun exposure can create a problem in pigmentation of skin cells due to sun rays.
To avoid blotchy or sun damaged skin while using a product that contains alpha hydroxy, make sure to avoid sunlight. Doing so will help you to avoid a lot of problems associated with this powerful treatment.
What makes a good wrinkle cream is the choice of antioxidant of the manufacturer. Retinol or Vitamin A and green tea extracts are well known. A cream that can imitate the effects of collagen would be a better buy since collagen treatments are the most effective way of treating wrinkles.
A good wrinkle cream should include antioxidants. A combination of organic serums mixed with Vitamins A and E are very effective in smoothing wrinkles.
Really the formula comes down to testing and expertise, but those products tend to be the more expensive. However, a anti aging cream that can be found in your local drugstore may contain anti-oxidants and might be the best choice for you.
