It’s common knowledge that drinking plenty of water every day is a big part of the secret on how to look young. Or is it?

Gulp all the water you want every day, but if your cells can’t absorb that moisture correctly, you might as well save your bladder the trouble – at least as far as anti aging hydration goes.

When we are young, the human body produces plentiful amounts of a vital substance named Glucosamine.

You see, when we’re young, or bodies produce generous amounts of what is known as Glucosamine. The key role of Glucosamine is to keep moisture in your cells. It’s a highly vital, natural moisturizer, and it is partly responsible for keeping our faces “young and plump”  when we are young.

It is also a major reason why your face drops its plumpness to the wayside as you age (along with loss of collagen). As you get older, Glucosoamine levels diminish, along with your skin’s ability to hold water. As you age, your skin and body has less and less ability to absorb the water you supply it with, and so you dry up, and lines and wrinkles ensue.

BUT THIS IS WONDERFUL NEWS!

It’s great news for you, as you now know this, and as you may know, Glucosamine is available for sale in most health food shops. When you start giving your body this vital component to youth, it will help your body mimic what it did when you were in your teens. What do you think that means?

Younger looking skin! Smoother complexion, smaller pores – basically a younger, much better feeling version of yourself. If you purchase Glucosamine, make sure you get what is known as Glucosamine Sulfate. There are other types, but they have found to not be as effective towards wrinkle reduction as Glucosamine Sulfate.

Alright, so consuming water isn’t completely pointless, as the body does need water. However, drinking water beyond what you normally do to satisfy your thirst is in fact pretty close to being pointless. Until now, that is, because now you know the secret.

Of course, just because you’re taking Glucosamine does not mean that now you’re going to all of a sudden look 20 years younger. That is why it is important that you apply a high quality anti aging/anti wrinkle cream after washing your face morning and night.

This skin problem is a condition that afflicts a significant number of our population. We are all prone to the appearance of this skin problem. Because the skin in this part of our face is thinner, it is vulnerable to damages.

But let me tell you some Beauty tips on how to get out of dark circles under your eyes:

1. Exercise daily to improve blood circulation. If you are stressed out all the time, your skin tends to look paler. Your circulatory functions are not working properly during this time. You need to exercise to boost blood circulation. It will make your face look more vibrant and less stressed. In addition to that, exercising can help release endorphin. This is the hormone that encourages “feel-good” feelings. This will make you feel more energetic.

2. Stay away from the sun’s UV rays. When you are going outdoors, you might want to use sun glasses or apply sun block. UV rays tend to mess up with the core functions of our dermis. The skin under your eyes is more vulnerable to the damaging effects of the sun’s UV rays. These rays speed up the aging process of the dermis. Your thin skin can get thinner.

3. Use an ideal eye cream. Your eye cream should be made up of natural ingredients such as Eyeliss, Haloxyl and Babassu. Eyeliss is an ingredient that plumps up weak skin cells. This is made up of natural peptides. Peptides can improve cellular circulation. This ingredient can also improve the thickness of the dermis. Haloxyl can lessen haemoglobin in red blood cells. Due to improper circulation, some cells leak to the surface layers of the skin. By lessening the haemoglobin that gives red color to them, you are lessening the appearance of dark circles. Babassu contains emollient properties. This ingredient creates an invisible shield on the surface of the skin to ward of external aging factors such as toxins, allergens and pollutants.

4. Use chamomile tea bags. Soak chamomile tea bags in lukewarm water first. The temperature of the water can help loosen up constricted blood vessels. Apply the chamomile tea bags under your eyes. Let it stay on your skin for about 15 minutes. Chamomile also contains components that can reduce leaking red cells.

Skin Care is Important

Good skin care is essential to graceful aging. Babies have smooth, soft skin that is wrinkle free and moist. Over time harsh elements in the environment wear on the skin making is dryer and tougher. With age comes wrinkles and sagging in the skin. Good skin care can slow down the harmful effects of time and the environment.

Before good skin care can be attempted, it is important to have a thorough understanding of how the skin operates. Skin consists of three layers. The inner most layer is the subcutaneous tissue. The tissue in the subcutaneous layer contains fat cells, which insulate the body. The middle layer is the dermis. The dermis contains the connective tissues. The outermost layer of skin is called the epidermis. The purpose of the epidermis is to protect the inner skin from environmental contaminants. Cells in the epidermis continuously travel from the inner most part of the epidermis to the surface, flaking off once they reach the top. The cells in the epidermis become thinner over time. Less collagen is produced causing skin to lose its elasticity. This causes the skin to sag and wrinkle. The number of sweat glands also decrease over time leading to dryer skin. As people age, cells in the subcutaneous layer become smaller also contributing to the sagging and wrinkling. UVA and UVB radiation from sunlight thin the epidermis even more. They also contribute to a faster breakdown of collagen in the dermis.

Good skin care requires cleansing and moisturizing. Cleansing is essential to remove dirt and dead skin cells. It helps to prevent pimples or acne. Cleansing, however, can dry out the skin. Cleansing removes the oil on the skin, which retains moisture. As a result moisturizers are needed to restore water to the skin and protect the skin. Special liquid cleaners are recommended over using traditional bar soap. Liquid cleansers can be made with moisturizer to combat the drying agents in the cleansers. The type of cleaner chosen depends on the skin type of the person using it. Vitamin E is often included in good skin care products as it helps moisturize the skin. It also maintains elasticity. The type of moisturizer used is important as well. A heavier moisturizer should be used at night while a thinner, lighter moisturizer is recommended for daytime use.

Good skin care requires a lot of effort. A regime of cleaning and moisturizing should be followed everyday in order to be effective. Avoiding exposure to the sun and tanning is ideal to prevent the harmful effects of radiation. Application of sunscreen with a minimum SPF of 15 is helpful as well. Smoking should be avoided. A healthy diet is beneficial in improving the elasticity of the skin. Drinking water is essential to good skin care. Water helps the body function better. It also cleans the pores from the inside. It re-hydrates the skin, which helps the skin stay moist. Keeping good habits in addition to good skin care will help the skin age gracefully and beautifully.
