Antioxidants In Skincare
You may be aware that antioxidants are in some of our favorite skincare products, but maybe not about how they benefit us. Well, it’s worth getting familiar with this remarkable ingredient because antioxidants can do a world of good for your skin.
How are antioxidants beneficial in skincare?
No matter what we do, we can’t escape free radical (unstable molecules that cause damage to skin cells) damage completely. But as the skin is our body’s largest organ, nourishing it with antioxidants is important to keep free radicals at bay. Some of the key benefits of antioxidants are:
-
Anti-aging:
Free radical damage and premature aging go hand in hand. As free radicals attack cells and oxidative damage occurs, our skin cells can stop functioning and the production of new cells can slow down. Antioxidants are the key to fighting premature aging; they help to protect current skin cells and increase the production of healthy skin cells.
-
Pollution protection & skin stressors:
It’s a scary thought, but our skin is under constant attack from invisible daily stressors, from traffic exhaust fumes to UV rays. Skincare packed with antioxidants can help to protect the skin against these attacks and keep aging damage at bay. Look for products with vitamins A, C, E, and CoQ10, they can prevent, repair, and heal free radical damage.
-
Softening fine lines & wrinkles:
By improving skin health and rejuvenating its appearance, antioxidants can slow down the effects of aging. They minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and bring back a healthy glow.
-
Skin firming:
As we age, collagen and elastin in the skin’s surface are depleted and skin firmness begins to decline. Antioxidants can help to slow down this process and improve skin firmness. Look for products rich in fatty acids and omegas 3, 6 and 9, as these revitalize the skin’s surface.
-
Glowing boost:
Certain antioxidants can improve the appearance of uneven skin tone, bring back a glow to dull skin and deliver radiantly healthy skin. Vitamin C is the powerhouse antioxidant that helps to fight free radical damage and stimulate normal collagen production.
-
Calms the skin:
Antioxidants rich in anti-inflammatory properties can help to calm red and inflamed skin. Green tea and chamomile are some of the key antioxidants to look out for, as these are famed for their ability to soothe inflamed or sensitive skin.
We tend to ignore skin issues believing they will go away with products and natural skincare but at times, your skin can warn you of a serious health condition. It is advisable to consult a homeopathic dermatologist if your skin problems don’t ease with skincare products.
