SKIN CARE PRODUCTS :
When most women think about anti aging we tend to think skin care – products that help us deal with the changes that age brings to our faces like lines, wrinkles, sagging skin and age spots. Anti aging skin care now includes a huge range of products – mostly for the face but increasingly targeted at specific problem areas like the neck and decollete, the under eye area and even the hands.
The skin care market for older women is so huge that we have devoted a separate section of this site to news, reviews, opinions and articles all about it – just follow the links to anti aging skin care or the top site tab.
For a more detailed look at what type of skincare products are available take a look at the anti aging skin care guide on the other section of this site. What follows is a brief summary.
Most anti aging skin care lines focus on the four steps to good skin care (cleanse, tone, exfoliate and moisturize) and include products that target each step. Moisturizing creams aim to hydrate skin as a first step and also include active anti aging ingredients to deal with skin wrinkling and sagging.
The key actives are alpha hyaluronic acid (AHA), retinol, peptides, and antioxidants like vitamin e and vitamin c. Skin care products in the anti aging market also include temporary wrinkle fillers, botox alternatives and exfoliating or microdermabrasion creams and gels.
