 Skin care experts agree that if you want to keep your skin looking bright and help it maintain that youthful glow, you must exfoliate your facial skin. Exfoliating your skin can be done chemically (with a scrub or a peel) or mechanically (with a mechanical device or wash cloth.

 As we age, most everything on our body tends to change in one way or another. At some point in time everyone will experience fine lines, wrinkles, gray hair, sagging skin, the loss of collagen and elastin, and often times the appearance of dark circles under the eyes.
Dark under eye circles can appear at any point in time for a wide variety of reasons. Here are a few examples of the most common reasons for the occurrence of dark circles under the eyes.
• Poor Nutrition – Not eating a balanced diet or the lack of iron or Vitamin K can cause dark circles under the eye.
• Heredity – Having dark eye circles is often an inherited trait. The skin under the eye is extremely thin. Blood passes through veins that lay close to the surface of the skin. Dark circles will appear worse the more transparent the skin is.
• Fatigue – Pale skin is caused by the lack of sleep. When the skin looks pale, the blood that passes through the veins appear to be more visible. This in turn makes the dark circles look darker.
• Allergies, Asthma and Eczema – Rubbing your eyes for any reason will irritate the delicate thin skin under your eyes which will cause the appearance of dark circles.
Please check back on Tuesday for the conclusion.

 A person could embrace the onslaught of wrinkles in their life and believe that they signify wisdom and grace from the years of life’s experiences. For most people who are getting older, especially women, wrinkles are something that they would likely choose to leave behind.
Wrinkles occur for a variety of reasons. The most common reason is because of the typical aging process. There are other factors that can speed up the wrinkling process as well.
• Some people tend to wrinkle more than others do based upon their genetic makeup.
• It is a well-known fact that smoking is a major contributor to premature aging of the skin.
• Light skinned people who tend to burn easily are more likely to wrinkle faster.
• Working outdoors (i.e. construction workers, farmers, road workers, etc.)
• Not protecting your skin from UVA/UVB rays when playing outdoors.
• Using tanning beds. Skin care experts agree…that there is no safe tan!

 The quest for women to maintain their youthful look and defy age successfully has been ongoing for thousands of years. There are many potions and concoctions that claim to reduce or prevent wrinkles and sagging skin in stores around the world. Age defying skin care products range from low cost home treatments to costly products which yield debatable end results.
In both men and women, there are several causes as to why our skin ages. Skin care experts cannot pin-point exactly when a person’s skin will age, but certain factors will speed up the aging process such as…not protecting your skin from the sun, eating an unhealthy diet, and smoking.
Aging skin is the most visible sign we have of getting older. One of the main reasons that our skin naturally ages is due to a loss of collagen production. As we age, our skin becomes thinner and loses its elasticity and strength.
The great news is that Skin Gift can help you find the perfect skin care product to help you combat the signs of aging. You can pamper your hands with Jan Marini’s Age Intervention Hands while you give your eyes a treat with iS Clinical’s Youth Eye Complex.
