Simple Secrets for Rejuvenating Aging Skin
by: Sue Dolan
Which anti-aging rejuvenation skin care strategies are really
effective?
For goodness sake, how many secrets can there be and why doesn’t
everyone know them all already?
Well, actually many of the simple secrets as shared by the
http://www.skincareresourcecenter.com are quite well known
but many of us simply haven’t integrated them into our daily
skin care routine yet. As a result we have gradually seen the
effects of aging take over our former youthful complexion.
Now the mirror reveals those horrid brown age spots that have
started to blossom with wild abandon, fine lines that are
deepening into wrinkles with the passing of each day, spider
veins that have not only begun to creep over the bridge of the
nose but to squiggling across the cheeks, and the list goes on.
(For some of us, the list goes on and on and on….)!

The more obvious simple secrets begin with keeping out of the
sun or at least using sunscreen each and every day. As most know
by now, many of the signs of aging occur as a direct result of
damage caused by over exposure to the sun or from those quick
trips to the tanning salons.
As most also know, to achieve healthy skin it is important to
eat nutritiously, drink lots of water to keep the skin hydrated,
not to smoke, and get the recommended eight hours of sleep each
night. These anti-aging rejuvenation strategies can really
represent “face saving” lifestyle changes… literally!
Simple secrets for maximizing the benefits from your skin care
regime start with keeping the skin hydrated. This can easily be
achieved by drinking the recommended amounts of liquid per day
and using a good, hydrating mosturizers.
Now, one of the tricks is not to slather on your moisturizer.
More is definitely not better in this case because you will only
end up clogging your pores. Lightly apply your mosturizer,
several times a day, if needed.

Most people only need to cleanse their face
once a day. Cleansing at night is usually preferable. Too much soap and
water can dry and irritate the skin. Use a cleanser with emollients,
avoiding those with astringents. This is especially true for dry or
sensitive skin types. Use a light toner to refresh and cleanse the skin in
the morning rather than washing your face again.
Appling skin care products to clean, warm, moist skin allows the ingredients
to absorb into the skin more efficiently. Even using a warm face cloth that
is placed on the skin for a few minutes is helpful prior to toning and
moisturizing. Use upward sweeping strokes, from the chin up and outward to
the brow area, as you apply the toner and again with the mosturizers.
Gently tap the surface of your skin after applying the moisturizer to
stimulate the cells which will allow the skin to more efficiently absorb the
nutrients provided by the mosturizers.
Select a moisturizer with active anti-aging rejuvenation ingredients that
have been clinically proven to be effective. Products to look for include
those with a sufficient concentration of vitamin A, (retinol) and an AHA,
glycolic acid with between an 8% and 15% concentration. Use a microdermabrasion scrub or home treatment once a week to exfoliate away dead
skin cells.
Last, but not least, use a sunscreen each and every day in order to protect
the skin from further damage. You’ll then be on your way to achieving more
youthful, radiant skin.
