Every person's skin is different
Depending on your skin type, what products you should use and how you should take care of your skin is not the same for everyone
Today we're going to show you some of the hottest treatments for dry skin
oily skin, and the best new anti-aging skin care. For an anti-aging routine
DMAE is becoming one of the best methods of reducing the signs of aging
It's a naturally occurring substance that may help to stabilize cell membranes
And the longer you use it, the better the results will be. It's so effective that it's sometimes called a facelift in a bottle
One of the newest antioxidants showing up in moisturizers is DMAE. This is a natural chemical that is an antioxidant and anti-aging product put into creams now
We all have sun damage and environmental damage that have led to aging, damaged skin
This particular antioxidant seems to give people the sensation that their skin is tightening and firming up by just using it topically
Another weapon in the anti-aging arsenal is alpha-lipoic acid, a powerful antioxidant
It can help to destroy free radicals that can harm the body and cause the skin to age more quickly
Because alpha acid is fat and water it very effective in skin cells and can help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles soy is a skin care ingredient that has tremendous benefits to the skin Soy contains lipids isoflavones proteins and nutrients that help to moisturize skin
even skin pigment, and lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
It's almost like food for your skin. Mature skin being skin of all of us as we get older gets drier
We do lose some hormones, growth hormones, sexual hormones. and they affect the skin. With all of these skin care options to choose from
we decided to check out some of these ingredients for ourselves. Lisa Lewis is the owner of MediSpa, Spa 415 in Beverly Hills, California. She helps some of the
biggest stars in Hollywood achieve beautiful skin, so we thought she would be the perfect
choice to test our products with DMAE, alpha-lipoic acid, and soy. Well, alpha-lipoic acid is one of the key ingredients that a lot of new skin care
companies are introducing because they found that it actually can duplicate what the skin is lacking
Now that we've seen some of the newest products for anti-aging, let's take a look at what works best for dry skin
For dry skin, it's important to use cleaning products that are gentle and will not dry skin
even more. Herbs and vegetable extracts are one of the latest skin care trends
and you can use herbs such as aloe vera and chamomile to calm skin and keep it moist A soap free cleanser such as a cleansing milk can remove dirt and makeup from pores Also products that are organic will contain less chemicals that may dry and irritate the skin
Another tool to help dry skin is hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the body to help build collagen, increase moisture levels, and keep skin supple
Risa Crickler is a fashion executive who has to be up on all the latest trends while still looking her best
She tried the soap-free cream cleanser along with hyaluronic acid serum and some moisturizing sunblock to protect her skin and keep it from getting damaged
I like to stay away from products with harsh ingredients, so using an organic cleansing milk is very helpful when you have dry skin and you notice right away that it calms your skin
The last type of skin care we're talking about is for oily skin
Oily skin can be prone to breakouts even as we age. One of the best ways to treat oily skin or blemish-prone skin is with glycolic acid
Many times, oily skin can cause pores to look larger. Glycolic acid cleans the skin, removing dead skin cells and debris
and helping to diminish breakouts and minimize pores. Glycolic is one of the many fruit acids
These are meant to exfoliate the skin gradually and smoothly without the person knowing it
and also they can prevent acne and help bring more moisture to the skin Yvonne Ouellette is a makeup artist to celebrities such as Suzanne Somers She has to keep skin looking great for TV and film and she always looking for the
best skincare ingredients. I really like the products with the glycolic acid in it
I know I've noticed a really big difference in my skin tone. It's kept my complexion very clear, my pores clean, and I've had a lot less breakout
and also the tone and texture of my skin has changed quite a bit
But whether your skin is dry, oily, or you use anti-aging skin care
there are a wide array of new treatments to choose from that will keep your skin looking great
