Where do you buy your skin care anti wrinkle cream? Do you buy your anti wrinkle creams and lotions from a department store or pharmacy? Do you order them from TV or over the internet? Are you satisfied? Or are you just frustrated?

It's Your Skin - It's Your Health - It's Your Choice

It may be that you need to change the way that you think about skin care anti wrinkle cream and other cosmetics. You use them every day. You apply them topically. Synthetic chemicals can be absorbed through the skin’s layers and enter the blood stream.

Parabens Are Dangerous

Parabens, which are widely used in all cosmetics, including anti wrinkle creams and lotions, have been found in breast cancer tumors. Scientists examine these tumors, in order to try and identify a cause.

Parabens are used in skin care anti wrinkle cream and other products as preservatives. While researchers have not been able to determine if parabens actually cause cancer, they are also unsure of their safety.

But, the fact that they have been found in the tumors proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that synthetic chemicals enter the bloodstream through the skin’s layers. If you use a product daily that contains a cancer causing substance, then you may as well be eating it. So what goes on your skin should be safe enough to eat.

100% Safe? Yes. Where?

There is a new movement towards safer cosmetics and a new line of anti wrinkle creams and lotions that, while being 100% safe, are far more effective than anything else on the market. The reason they are so effective is because they focus on the skin’s health.

What do your skin’s cells and fibers need to stay healthy and younger looking for life?
These:
*Proteins
*Vitamins
*Antioxidants
*Minerals
*Fatty Acids

It should be of no surprise that these are many of the same things that the inner body needs. So, look for those ingredients in a skin care anti wrinkle cream. If you don't find them there, you will be wasting your time, money and your skin.

Bio-Availabiltiy is Vital

Now, some manufacturers include these things in their anti wrinkle creams and lotions, but they are not processed correctly, so the skin’s cells cannot use them. As with vitamin supplements, a compound must be “bio-available” before the body can use it.

Keratin is Essential But Just Any Keratin

One of the amino acid proteins that make up the skin’s fibrous mesh is keratin. Keratin has been used in skin care anti wrinkle cream and other lotions for many years. But, the source and the process that the companies use for manufacturing are wrong.

The source is animal hooves, primarily. The process denaturalizes the amino acid peptides, so the keratin that is present in the hooves cannot be used to create new cells and fibers. But, one manufacturer (from my research) has come up with a new ingredient for anti wrinkle creams and lotions that the can be used for that purpose.

It is called Functional Keratin and you will not find the ingredient in department stores or on pharmacy shelves. The major manufacturers have, as yet, not started using it. They may decide not to because they would have to increase the price of their anti wrinkle creams and lotions, in order to pay for new advertising and a new bottle.

There are many other new discoveries that improve the body’s ability to produce new collagen and elastin fibers. Do yourself a favor and do a little research before you buy skin care anti wrinkle cream. Learn about what makes a product effective and safe. You’ll be glad that you did. I'll be happy to help.
