Face Skin Care for Seniors

Skin aging is a result of programmed events, which are represented by modifications at the cellular and molecular level.  Major external and internal changes affect tremendously the aging process. One of the major external factors is sun exposure.  UV rays can irreversibly induced wrinkles and skin damage.  A change in hormonal balance is one of the major internal factors. Due to menopausal hormonal changes, women’s skin looses its elasticity and firmness, becoming wrinkled. There are also changes in the skin’s barrier function, sebum (a mixture of waxes, free cholesterol, free fatty acids and other lipids) production and facial contour.  

 Your Skin Care and the Environment

There are many creams which claim SPF more than 15 due to their concentration in titanium oxide or zinc oxide.  These minerals divert UV rays but in the some time can block the “breathing” capability of your skin. In time the skin becomes more sensitive to environmental conditions, prone to dermatitis and dryness.

 All our products contain a large variety of natural antioxidants such as: Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Beta carotene, Selenium. In addition, our products contain protoantocynidins (the same structure as the well known Pycnogenol) which are the most powerful natural antioxidants. In our case

UV lights are not diverted but are absorbed and the free radicals (by products, very active with a high capability of harmful oxidation) are neutralized. In another words, you might have some tan on your face but definitely no harm on your skin will come from UV rays when you applied our creams.    We strongly recommend our Natural Balance Menopause Face Cream which contains estrogens and flavonoids from Red Clover blossoms and a high concentration of vitamin C and protoantocynidins (natural and efficient antioxidants). This cream is meant to refine your skin structure and  nourishes your skin with vitamins and minerals. It is recommended for all skin types with a high incidence in the case of dry and aged skin.
