 How Free Radicals from
Heavy Pollution,
Auto Exhaust and Sun Exposure
Make You Look Older

Free radicals are a key factor in wrinkles and sagging skin. Free radicals make great skin care more challenging today than ever before.  HEAVY POLLUTION and CAR EXHAUST surround you everywhere - and they are major sources of free radicals that eat away at the youthfulness of your skin!

What gives skin its youthful resiliency? Well, skin is full of tons of little fiber bundles between the cells that bond and strengthen it. It’s these fibers that need the collagen and elastin we hear so much about.

When we’re young, these fibers are potent.  But with time, exposure to free radicals through environment and diet begin to attack these fibers or “connective tissue” and the DNA of our very cells. 

Free radicals break down those fibers. Skin elasticity and suppleness then fade, and that’s how the skin begins to sag and wrinkle.  The proverbial “age or liver spots” are a familiar sign of the activity of free radicals.

Only natural antioxidants halt this “domino effect” in its tracks and stop the ravaging.  So keep your skin well supplied with a vast pool of anti-oxidants every day.

Vitamin C:
Nature’s Essential Nutrient for Your Skin Cells to Build Collagen and Elastin

Clinical research proves that Vitamin C:

Is essential for the creation of collagen (the skin’s structural fiber “net”).

Repairs the skin.

Helps correct sun damage.

Establishes new collagen growth to inspire fullness and firmness to the skin.

Reduces the appearance of fine lines.

Improves uneven skin tone and clarity.

Is a potent antioxidant that speeds up cellular renewal.

Reduces wrinkles and improves skin texture, if you already have wrinkles.
 

HOWEVER - two important criteria must be met!  Unless there are high enough levels of Vitamin C available in a lotion, very little effect will occur. AND, the Vitamin C must be in a stable form so it doesn’t oxide and lose all usefulness to the skin.

Trade Irritating Retin-A
for Soothing Pro-Vitamin A.

Since Vitamin A is more difficult for the skin to use, Retin-A and Renova were created. Their anti-aging effects are well documented, BUT they can have side effects like skin irritation, dryness, peeling and sun sensitivity. Especially if overused.

Pro-Vitamin A, and beta carotene are precursors to A that the skin can readily embrace. All of the benefits, none of the harm.  Designed by nature.

Vitamin A: improves the texture and tone of skin, and very important - enhances youthful skin elasticity.

Vitamin E:
Nature’s Most Potent Anti-Oxidant Protection against Aging from Free Radical Damage!

The word that most comes to mind for Vitamin E is - ANTIOXIDANT.  A strong antioxidant action with lots of skin loving benefits.  It’s known for healing scars without a trace, reducing stretch marks, helping with psoriasis, preventing premature aging and even reducing the risk of skin cancer.

How does it work so well?  Vitamin E’s unique design by nature allows it to stabilize free radicals. It does this by supplying an extra electron and bringing balance - neutralizing the damaging effects of a free radical on the search for balance by ravaging your skin!

10 Powerful Reasons
Why Shea Butter is Anti-Aging for Your Skin:

1. Clinical trials found that shea butter helps prevent wrinkles, and provide UV protection.
2. A powerful combination of high levels of the anti-aging Vitamins A and E works to regenerate and repair cellular degeneration damage.
3. Shea butter has been traditionally valued for centuries for its ability to reduce existing wrinkles, while preventing the formation of wrinkles.
4. Gives skin the help it needs to retain youthful elasticity and firm up aging skin.
5. Rejuvenates skin pores.
6. Fortifies nails and cuticles.
7. A high presence of essential fatty acids (oleic and stearic acid) promote healing and anti-aging. As a side note: essential fatty acids are needed for every function of your body!  They are the foundation for all hormone production by the body.
8. Activate healing for burns, scars, stretch marks, sun damage and even eczema and psoriasis.
9. Deeply penetrating, shea butter has a reputation for relaxing tired, aching muscles and even bringing relief for rheumatism and arthritis.  This is due to high levels of two important anti-inflammation factors known as stigmasterol and unsaponifiables.
10. The healing and moisturizing qualities of shea butter help maintain a beautiful skin by slowing and even reversing the signs of aging.

15 Incredible Ways
Virgin Coconut Oil Affects Skin and Body Health:

1. High levels of Vitamin E.
2. Small molecules allow virgin coconut oil to absorb deeply into the layers of the skin for maximum conditioning and strengthening of tissue.  Yet it never clogs pores.
3. Can help bring back a youthful appearance to the skin.
4. High levels of antioxidants that protect against free radical exposure that attacks skin and causes cellular damage.
5. Profound effects on the skin can even prevent liver spot blemishes.
6. Helps keeps skin strong and supple so it doesn’t sag and wrinkle.

10. Helps quickly reestablish the skins protective acid barrier.
11. Has a unique fatty acid structure not found anywhere else that is highly prized for the welfare of the skin as well as the body.  Basically the fatty acid chain of molecules is much shorter, called MCTs.
12. The body is able to process and use these molecules for  health and well-being in some amazing ways to:
• Improve thyroid performance
• Increased energy levels
• Balance metabolism, induce weight loss – and more.
13. Is a rich source of lauric acid that boosts the immune system and fights off viruses, bacteria and fungus. (The only other place this is found in such abundance is mothers milk.)
14. Can reduce chronic skin inflammation.
15. Exfoliates dead surface skin cells - gently (no rough abrasive action, which damages the skin.)
