Goodbye to wrinkles!

Wrinkles - one of the effects of aging. As the skin ages, natural proteins, called collagen and elastin, begin to break down, resulting in fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity in the skin. The skin is made up of three layers:
The outermost layer, the epidermis
The middle layer, the dermis
The innermost layer, the subcutaneous layer 

What causes wrinkles? Well, the dermis has an elastic quality (elastin) that helps keep the skin looking young. A protein called collagen, found in the dermis, also helps prevent wrinkles. As we age, the dermis loses both elastin and collagen, and the skin begins to appear thinner. Meanwhile, underneath it all, the subcutaneous layer begins to fade away, and the epidermis begins to droop (sag), forming wrinkles. There are a variety of products that can help stimulate cell growth and increase collagen production. 

If you're looking to diminish lines, firm and restore, try this Ultra-Refining Miracle Moisturizer. An effective blend of Retinol and antioxidants make this the moisturizer of choice for diminishing fine lines and restoring elasticity and firmness.

To combat deeper wrinkles, use the Age Rewind Anti-Wrinkle Night Cream. This is formulated especially for mature skin types. A combination of anti-oxidants, moisture rich lipids, and superior nutritive and skin softening ingredients replenish moisture to dry, dehydrated skin.

For the eye area, apply a small amount of Youth Boost Eye Firming Gel, formulated with an effective peptide enriched gel that soothes, firms, brightens, and restores elasticity around the eye area.

Remember, it's never too early to treat wrinkles and lines. Keep your skin properly hydrated by applying a moisturizer after each cleanse and always wear sunscreen.
