When it comes to anti-aging ingredients, the research is very clear: Antioxidants are king, not only fighting the harmful free radicals responsible for the signs of aging, but also improving the effectiveness of sunscreens in preventing sun damage.
In fact, during the day, the combination of antioxidants together with a sunscreen, is the strongest defense we can give to our skin and is an effective combination to treat skin aging when we talk about; improving skin quality, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, achieving luminosity, fading spots and attenuating uneven tone. At night, the dose of antioxidants promotes cell renewal and self-repair of the skin.
Connection between wrinkles and antioxidants
When we are young, our skin is loaded with antioxidants that naturally protect us from cellular oxidation caused by harmful free radicals.
Mainly due to sun damage and also to other factors such as pollution, the passage of time, menopause, and even the use of irritating products... the skin loses its natural capacity to produce antioxidants.
If we do not get sufficient antioxidant protection, either from our own body's own production, from dietary sources or by topical application of products formulated with antioxidants, free radicals cause breakage of collagen and elastin support fibers, as well as harmful damage causing cellular oxidation and impairing the skin's ability to stay healthy and youthful.
