"Moisturizers are nourishment for your skin!"

Natural Skin Care Creams

When you think of anti aging moisturizers, the one your mother used probably comes to mind immediately. Whether it was a natural skin care recipe she preferred or a beauty cream, the facial products most likely had something in common – a base oil with skin nourishing ingredients, whipped into a cream that made it easy to apply. It’s still a good formula – improved for today.

The newer beauty products are almost like custom skin care products mainly because you have so many options when it comes to ingredients. Do you know that you can even make your own cosmetic moisturizers just like you can make your own homemade facial scrubs? Models and makeup artists often share makeup tips for taking ordinary products and customizing them.

Have you ever tried adding Vitamin E or grape seed oil to moisturizer? It might seem far-fetched at first, but many of our mothers used olive oil and lemon to moisturize with. In fact, natural facial recipes are mainly based on adding essential oils or vitamins to a base recipe for cleansing or moisturizing your skin.

Sensational Skin Serums

Anti aging moisturizers have evolved and now serums are the newest trend. Are you wondering what the difference is between a cream and serum? The claim is that serums give you visible results faster than the creams that we’ve been using. Although many of the ingredients are similar – like Vitamin A (Retinal) and peptides – serums are absorbed by the skin faster. They also have another function.

Serums contain peptides. Those peptides appear to act on collagen levels. Remember, as you age you lose collagen. The key to appearing younger is to keep the collagen building because it lessens the look of wrinkles. In other words, your skin will appear plumper, fuller and more youthful.

Serums have another advantage over ordinary anti aging moisturizers. Many contain an ingredient called Argireline. Argireline is said to have a relaxing effect on facial muscles if it’s used continuously. Naturally, when your facial muscles relax, your skin appears smoother. It does not give you the same results of Botox.

How To Apply Anti Aging Moisturizers

One of the most confusing things is figuring out which product should be used first if you are using more than one and then applying makeup. Here’s a makeup tip to help you remember the process.

Use prescription products first.

Serums second.

Moisturizers third.

Correct with makeup.

Yes, it is USMC...You won’t forget it will you? Prescription products are formulated to absorb into the skin. Serums may have some absorption properties, but they’re not as intense as products you buy from a physician. Moisturizers are coating products. They deliver moisture to the upper layers of your skin. Makeup is just that – color applied last.

Did you know you can also combine color with moisturizers? You can, but start with a good anti aging moisturizer – keep your skin looking great for a lifetime!
