If you want to slow the aging of your face, natural skin care products are the visible choice.  The latest cellular rejuvenation research has focused on the benefits of naturally occurring ingredients, principally antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.

Why the focus on nutrients?  Amazing discoveries have been made about how to keep people healthy on the inside and what causes them to be sick.  Somewhere along the way, cosmetic companies lost sight of the fact that the skin is an organ of the body.   The skin needs nutrients just like any other organ in the body.   In some ways, it needs even more help.

Internal organs don’t have to cope with the damage effects of direct UV sunlight.   The outside of the body is dangerously exposed.   The face is especially vulnerable to photo-aging; wrinkles and other signs of aging caused by exposure to sunshine.  The rest of the body is generally protected by our clothing.

A good wide-brimmed hat and a pair of UV protective sunglasses can do a lot to protect the facial skin.   The trend in recent years has been to include sunscreen ingredients in everything from body lotion to night creams.   Why should we put a sunscreen in a night cream?

There is no benefit and the high quality natural skin care products do not contain sunscreen ingredients, because they are not safety tested.   Even the effectiveness of the sunscreens has been questioned, because the SPF rating process is inaccurate.   Sunscreens are only effective if they are reapplied on a regular basis.   What is the point of putting sunscreen in a day cream or body lotion that you apply only once daily?   There is none.

The conscientious companies take a different approach by using formulas rich in antioxidants to prevent aging caused by UV exposure.   Natural skin care products containing the antioxidant coenzyme Q10 can not just protest against sun damage, they can actually reverse it.

Coenzyme Q10 was was praised in years past as a fountain of youth.  It can be applied topically or taken orally, but the particles included in natural skin care creams must be smaller.  Otherwise they will not penetrate.   Technology can improve what nature has provided through micro processing of CoQ10 into Nano-Lipobelle Heq10.  Look for a skin cream with this ingredient for naturally younger skin.
