5 Ageless Skin Care Heroes to Never Run Out Of
When it comes to ageless skin, there is no single magic formula, but there are a few essential elements that bring the magic to any regimen.
Antioxidants (polyphenols, flavonoids, vitamins) protect collagen from degradation by chasing free radicals out of the tissues. Cell regulators (retinol, peptides) have direct effects on collagen metabolism and production. Exfoliators (acids) stimulate cell turnover to bring fresh new skin to the surface, stimulate collagen production, and clear cellular debris from the surface of skin to enhance penetration of antioxidants and cell regulators. The holy trinity of skin care.
How do you find the products that best incorporate these fundamentals to enhance your healthy, youthful glow? We’ve narrowed it down for you. Here are five ageless must-haves with the most.
Green Tea Antioxidant Cleanser
This optimal cleanser is loaded with antioxidant goodness to promote healthy cell function and protect against age-accelerating photodamage. The fresh, gel formula is also anti-inflammatory, hydrating, and cell-nourishing to support a resilient skin barrier and radiant glow. It’s the ultimate in protection and repair. Also excellent for body, hair, and as a shaving gel.
An antioxidant cocktail of gently exfoliating acids and healing and hydrating botanicals give this replenishing refiner its essential edge. Niacinamide, mandelic acid, rosehip oil, green tea extract, kiwi fruit extract, and honey nourish dull, dry skin and protect against environmental stressors. Bonus, it loosens and lifts cellular debris to enhance absorption of serums and optimize results.
This potent vitamin C and E serum might be as close to an age-proof solution as you can get. The antioxidant duo has an unparalleled synergism that maximizes protection from harmful free radicals. Off-the-charts photoprotection, plus the brightening and collagen-boosting effects of vitamin C and the reparative effects of vitamin E, make this superstar serum an absolute essential.
Derm-A-Renew Gentle Peptide and Vitamin A Serum
Skincare’s ageless power couple—peptides and vitamin A—are the foundation of this exceptional beauty defender. Both are cell-signaling collagen boosters, so you get a double dose of firming and lifting. Vitamin A is also a potent antioxidant and cell turnover accelerator. The formula is enhanced with lactic acid for softening and hydrating and kojic acid for brightening.
The only eye cream you’ll ever need. Banish bags, boost collagen, brighten dark circles, and sort out sag with this high-performance blend of vitamin A, peptides, and caffeine. The antioxidant- and nutrient-rich formula is lightweight, fast-absorbing, and non-greasy, making it perfect for use under concealer or alone. Excellent for firming and brightening neck and décolletage too.
Comments
Hello Lori,
If you are already using Exfol-A Forté and would like to incorporate peptides into your regimen, then you could simply add the Rejuv Rx serum to your regimen AM and PM. Derm-A-Renew is a starter Vitamin A serum for those with sensitive skin and/or rosacea.
I would like to know is derm a renew a better choice over exfol a forte if you want the vitamin a and have been using the products for awhile.? Would you use both one in the am and one in the pm? Is derm a renew the lower strength vitamin A? If so why use a lower strength vitamin A. If you already are use to the vitamin A and what a stronger one? Why not make a stronger derm a renew? What is the strength of the vitamin a in derm a renew?
