Looking for body creams with collagen and elastin? Let me share with a shocking truth. You simply do not need such creams.
The primary causes of skin aging are related to the deficiency of collagen and elastin. As we grow older, our collagen and elastin structure starts to thicken. When that happens, our skin elasticity fibers begin to break down and disintegrated. This makes our dermal architecture less responsive and disorganized.
Over time, you will find that our skin starts to lose its suppleness and elasticity, resulting in wrinkles, droopy neckline and sagging skin.
The thought of applying creams that contains collagen and elastin directly to our skin because our skin lacks these two essential proteins sounds logical. Unfortunately, nature simply does not work that way.
There are two key reasons why that is so:
First, most collagen and elastin added to skin creams come from plants extracts. However, such collagen and elastin (from plants and marines) does not match our human skin genetically. Secondly, our skin lacks the abilities to retain and transmit the benefits of such direct application.
So is there any the risks associated with using body creams with collagen and elastin? Fortunately, you can rest assured that no major risks exist in using such creams. However, in some rare cases, you may experience redness and other itchiness.
But, I think you should ask yourself is this. Why would you want to fork out your money for these creams if they don't work as they claimed?
To be candid, I think advertisements purporting these products are shams. Not only has it cause people to suffer time and money in spending their money for nothing, it has also resulted in people doubting skin care advertisements. To be fair, not all skin care advertisements are so blatant and false. You just have to do your research and take them like a pinch of salt.
Bottom-line? Just don't waste your money on these "supposedly" miracle body creams. Instead look out for skin care ingredients such as Nanobelle CoenzymeQ10, CynergyTK and Wakame.
Cynergy TK is a substance found only in New Zealand. It contains a protein that is sourced from the sheep. This protein has the unique ability to stimulate the re-production of collagen cells in our body.
Nanobelle CoenzymeQ10 is a mixture of vitamin E and COQ10. It contains skin protection capabilities against free radical cells that can harm your skin.
Wakame is also commonly know as Japanese sea algae. It is said that Japanese women has very smooth looking skin because they have been using wakame since young.
