Time in a Bottle Or What the Heck's an Anti-Wrinkle Complex?
By Maverick Jensen Platinum Quality Author




If you live in America you are one of millions who are constantly bombarded with the idea that youth equals beauty. The media, television, movies, health shows, talks shows all espouse the ideals of a perpetually youthful figure and eternally smooth skin. The reality though is that our skin does naturally change throughout our lifetimes. Some of these changes are the result of natural bodily processes, some lifestyle choices, and many of the changes are due to exposure to damaging factors in our environment-you just can't avoid some of it.

While we certainly cannot, and should not, be expected to maintain the appearance of a 25 year old throughout our life we certainly can reduce the damage that we do to our skin and keep a healthful, bright appearance. Skin can be beautiful at any age if it is healthy and well cared-for. Wrinkles are not the only or even the primary, sign of aging. Think about it-not only is youthful skin free of wrinkles but it is smooth, evenly pigmented and bright. Exposure to the sun, environmental pollutants and antioxidants damages skin cells, resulting in a dull, uneven complexion and loss of elasticity.

While some exposure to environmental damage is unavoidable the good news is that some of this damage can be reversed and with proper care future damage may be considerably minimized. Some of the following are lifestyle considerations that will help you maintain healthy skin for a lifetime:

  • Wear sunscreen all year round, regardless of whether it appears sunny outside or not. Sun damage can occur even on cloudy days and is one of the biggest factors that determine how skin will age. Choose a sunscreen with an SPF (Sun Protection Factor) of at least 15 for maximum effectiveness.
  • Stop or cut back on smoking. Smoking reduces skin oxygenation and creates mouth wrinkles, resulting in unhealthy, dry skin.
  • Be sure to drink plenty of water each day to keep skin adequately hydrated. Your skin is a reflection of your overall health, so a healthful, varied diet is equally important. If you are not well hydrated your skin will reflect that by appearing as dry, flaky and dull.

In addition the use of naturally derived anti-wrinkle products can make a big difference in the appearance of complexion irregularities and wrinkles. "Wrinkle complexes" or treatments are available in a wide range of formulations and it is important to choose one that fits your needs, lifestyle and budget. First of all it is a good idea to choose a wrinkle complex that uses natural ingredients since many conventional products contain harsh chemicals that can irritate and further dry out aging skin. One of the most important ingredients to look for is an antioxidant - particularly CoQ10.

Antioxidants fight free radicals, one of the biggest culprits in aging skin. Wrinkle complexes should also contain natural moisturizers (emollients) to hydrate the skin and increase elasticity. Revitol is a natural skin products manufacturer that carries an excellent line of anti-wrinkle products including a treatment serum, wrinkle complex and anti-aging moisturizer. They are quite affordable and naturally formulated with vitamins, antioxidants, emollients and skin firming compounds. But probably the main reason why Revitols anti aging cream is becoming so popular is that it works, they have produced an honest product that does what it claims too.

Are you looking for younger and almost flawless skin, probably the best way to achieve this is using Revitols Anti Wrinkle Solution.
