Anti-Aging Skincare & The Truth Behind Moisturizers

An antiaging skin care review will help some but can be confusing.  It is best to consider an anti aging skin care system designed for the individual person.

Things to consider are: No. 1 – The ingredients. Are you allergic to any of the listed ingredients?  What is your natural skin tone?

Maybe some home TV program may have lured you in causing you to think that you were getting a high quality product.  I ordered one too, just so that I could write this anti-aging skin care review.

 I watched as the number of orders go up, I shook my head in frustration.  There is no way for any one to know what this highly advertised anti aging skin care system contains.  You cannot read the list of ingredients.  There is no way to tell if there is any clinical research to support their claims.

However, since I wanted to write this anti aging skin care review, I got out my credit card and ordered the product.  It was a “collagen kit”.  Because, I’ve done my research, I know that most any anti aging skin care system claims to include collagen.  And, since I know a little bit more about it than the average guy, I know that the fibers are usually derived form bovines, or cow hide.

Because my assignment was to provide an anti aging skin care review for this product, I ordered it anyway, at a cost of $78.  You might think of me as a guinea pig.  Better me, than you.

 I received my antiaging skin care system in the mail and I opened it with trepidation.  Finally, I could read the ingredients.  The first ingredient that I noticed was paraffin wax.  It was in the eye treatment and the lip “plumper”.

Any product that contains paraffin wax will feel like chap-stick.  If you put it around your eyes at night, you will wake up with blurred vision and sometimes itchy watering eyes.  That’s because, as you sleep, you rub your eyes, subconsciously.  So far, I have all zeros for my anti-aging skin care review and I haven’t even tried it yet.  I just know a little more than the average consumer, so I’m not looking forward to the negative results.

 I tried the eye cream in the anti aging skin care system, because I wanted to do a complete review.

 As I suspected it felt greasy, sticky and heavy.  It ended up in my eyes over night and I awoke with irritated, swollen eyes.

So, I tried the lip “plumper” in the anti aging skin care system.  I might just have well have bought a tube of Chap Stick and saved the money. But since I was writing an anti aging skin care review, I had to make the effort.  As with Chap Stick, your lips feel better initially, because the wax heals and protects them from further injury.  But, if you use something like this on a regular basis, it will eventually strip away all of the natural oils that your lips contain and they will be dryer than ever.

I have done an anti aging skin care review for a wonderful product, but it’s not available in store or on any home TV program.  If you would like to know about my review of a safe natural skin care product line just visit AHealthyRadiantSkin.com

Help answer the question about Anti Aging

What Type of red wine is best to drink for anti-aging benefit?
I've been reading about the anti-aging benefits of having a glass of red wine everyday but haven't found any suggestions as to what type of red wine is best to drink. I've read that wines high in tannins and wines made from muscadine grapes are better, but does anyone know which type of wines have high tannic value or use muscadine grapes? Funny how so many health articles talk about "red wine" without specifying the type.

  • Estee Lauder is good. If you like it then there's no reason to change. However, anti-aging is a multi-faceted thing. It starts with good health by not smoking, very little alcohol if any, exercise, eating good food, etc. I have found that if you abuse your body within, that no anti aging formula is going to make up for it on the outside.
    So, with that said, fighting free-radical damage in the skin with Vitamins A,E, and C are good starters. Vitamin A in the form of Retinoic Acid, Vitamin C serums, and creams laced with Vitamin E have confirmed that they do help slow down the aging of the skin.
    If you are using any high end skin product with vitamins in it, good moisture binding ingredients, and are doing routine exfoliating, you should be getting more than adequate pampering for your skin.

    Any moisturizer that contains sunscreen is great in preventing wrinkles.

    I have so many products in my bathroom (I like to try it all…lol). I currently wash my face with Olay Regenerist and then use the Thermal Skin Polisher (which heats up with water, it's like a mini chemical peel). I moisturize with Loreal Wrinkle Decrease. My foundation has a spf. My routine changes constantly.

    I also love Clinique's Dramatically Different moisturizer and Dermalogica's Active Moist.

    The key is to eat right, drinks lots of water, and moisturize :)

    Sounds like these will be good videos. I am 21 and I am interested in natural, safe, preventive anti aging the will work years down the road. Unfortunately, I only started wearing sunscreen around 19 and moisturizing at 20. (I use a blend of grapeseed oil and jojoba oil. I am very interested in essential oils for skincare because they are natural and not very expensive.

  • Vitamin C serums and Retinol creams are really effective. The only problem with retinol creams are that your skin may have a brief “purging” period.

    It’s great that you started wearing sunblock at 12! I wish I had that insight back then.

  • It's so nice of you to want to buy your Mom a good anti-aging/anti wrinkle cream.

    I think buying a cream or surface treatment is so much better than getting surgery or using Botox.

    When I select my anti-aging products, I tend to look for a few things:

    1) are there proven results?
    2) can I get a trial or sample (so I know it will work before I spend a lot of money)
    3) are the results as good as Botox or even better? (I want to get really great results without the pain or hassle)
    4) decide what you want to focus on treating (age spots, wrinkles, sagginess- or all of the above)
    5) decide how often you want to apply the treatment and how long it should take (I don't like to sit around for hours- I want something I can use quickly and then get on with the rest of my day)

  • Emma says:

    1. Loss of strength, especially in limbs.
    2. Hearing will begin to fade.
    3. Your on more than 4 prescriptions at one time.
    4. You realize that its ridiculous to drive past 55 mph.
    5. Joins creak and ache.
    6. A smiling child whose name escapes you, calls you "grandpa"
    7. You wake up early in the morning to find the clocks broken and stuck at 1:00

    If you want to combat anti-aging, do nothing, and get off the prescriptions.

  • jillykate says:

    so.. question… what can do you do for anti-aging if you need to get to the dermis and moisturizers don’t work

  • It's never too early. The most important thing is sunscreen!
    Sun damage starts when you are exposed to the sun which is usually when you are a baby unless you've never been outside since.
    Don't listen to the comments that wrinkles start when your 30+, because once they start it's too late and it means you haven't been taking care of yourself! You'll thank me when you're 35 and wrinkle free!

  • aleisha says:

    you should have started when you were 20, but its not too late. If you are really looking for the best anti aging products,
    I suggest doing what this mom did, combining Resveratrol and Lift

  • Retinol (vitamin A) & Vitamin C serums have been proven to be really effective. But only particular forms of these vitamins are small enough to be absorbed deep into our skin. This is why these serums are so much more expensive than moisturizers.

    I’ll make a video about these serums soon!

  • I’m only 15, but I take good care of my skin. Other than using different products for acne, I use SPF 30 everyday with UVA and UVB protection. I’ve been doing this for about 3 years.

    I was just wondering what else can I use to prevent wrinkles when I’m older? Are they’re any good products? I want to prevent now so I won’t have many later! :)

  • rikajaj says:

    30+

    or when you start seeing the first signs of wrinkles i guess.

    you are 21. you should not worry about that. just continue taking care of your skin by cleaning it, avoiding foundation that clogs your pores, and using your sunscreen. enjoy your youthful skin good luck! :-)

  • Dee Dee says:

    i haven't used them but my mom, who is 49, uses Artistry Time Defiance products. they are a little more expensive then the drug store brands but they're definitely worth their value! And Artistry also has a 100% guarantee of satisfaction. : )
