Antioxidants for Skin Care



Antioxidants are a hot topic in the skin care industry. They are generally derived from fruits, berries, vegetables, legumes, and nuts. A diet rich in antioxidant foods is vital to healthy skin.

Antioxidants fight free radicals that damage the function of your cells. In addition to a healthy diet, you should apply antioxidants topically to reduce skin damage.

There are numerous antioxidant-rich cleansers, serums, lotions and creams on the market. Here are three effective antioxidants available:

- Vitamin C: it helps in the synthesis of collagen and reduces free-radical damage. Vitamin C products should be stored in a cool, dark place. Try SkinMedica Vitamin C Complex as it’s stored in a dark, airtight container.

- Vitamin E: also fights free radicals and speeds up the healing process. It is a good natural anti-inflammatory. Vitamin E is great for sensitive skin types that react to more active forms of antioxidants. Topical vitamin E is great for people with skin prone to acne. Good products include Kinerase C6 Peptide Intensive Treatment and Peter Thomas Roth Max All Day Moisture Defense Cream, SPF 30.

- DMAE is a new antioxidant that, when applied topically, tightens skin, increases firmness and fades hyper pigmentation. It can be found in most of NV Perricone’s products.

To conclude, include in your skin care regimen products with antioxidant-rich formulas and eat a healthy diet. You’ll be able to show off a youthful, glowing complexion.
