Slowing aging and improving skin barrier

Understand the true cause of aging and learn how to keep your skin youthful and healthy.

 

Intro

The skincare industry sells millions of products each year, promising to lessen wrinkles, brown spots, slacking skin, jowls, and under-eye bags.

However, aging is a skin challenge, and a wrinkle is a result of not effectively addressing that skin challenge. 


Understanding the true cause for aging or rapid aging.


Inflammation is the root cause of aging. If you consider your skin in a holistic system of health, then aging or signs of aging of skin is a reflection of the body’s ability to heal and regenerate on the cellular level. Chronic inflammation caused by exposure to environmental stressors can slow down your skin’s ability to regenerate and accelerate your skin’s loss of vitality in the tissues.


What makes wrinkles appear?

As we age, our skin loses its elasticity and becomes thinner and more fragile, which accelerates the formation and deepening of wrinkles. Aging also causes changes in overall skin texture and tone, and instigates the development of age spots, or hyperpigmentation. Hormonal changes due to menopause, pregnancy, or birth control pills can cause various reactions, especially hyperpigmentation. Your skin type, sensitivity threshold, and scent or fragrance tolerance might change during these stages.

How to slow down aging aka age well?

It’s necessary to look at your overall lifestyle. Whether in foods that you want to include more of in your diet or the ingredients you should look for in your skin products, they should be anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant rich.

One of our favorite skin care lines, Hale and Hush, specializes in anti-inflammatory and products packed with ingredients that come from medical research. They also address the effects of skin aging with the latest skin technologies in Vitamin C, Retinaldehyde (Vitamin A), Peptides, and Stems Cells.
