Ingredients that Truly Turn Back the Clock

In my last blog I made a distinction between anti-aging ingredients and age-reversing ingredients. After about age 40 or 45, most of us need to add more active ingredients to our skin care routine. With the drop in hormones and the years’ accumulation of UV and free radical exposure, signs of aging become visible to the naked eye.



One day, you look in the mirror and think “When did that happen?!” I remember my moment of truth like it was yesterday. I was dusting and bent over a mirrored table. In my reflected image, the skin was actually hanging from my face. What a shock!



Fortunately today we have several truly age-reversing ingredients that can repair some of the damage without surgery or injections of foreign or toxic substances.



My choices for age-reversing cosmeceutical ingredients are: acetyl hexapeptide-3 to control and diminish lines of expression; palmitoyl pentapeptide-3 to stimulate new collagen growth and plump wrinkles from within; and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-3 to fight and reverse the glycation damage which causes facial sag.
