 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!

 For some people, wrinkles creep up very slowly, and for others they seem to suddenly appear overnight. Wrinkles may begin as “laugh lines”, which are no laughing matter, or in many cases, in the area under the eye. The skin under the eye is most susceptible to wrinkles because it is thin and as we age, the skin becomes even thinner. Initially, fine line surface wrinkles will begin to appear, and then deep furrows appear. Most wrinkles appear on the areas on the body where there is the most sun exposure. Typical locations are the face, neck, back of the hands, and tops of the forearms. Despite some people thinking that wrinkles signify wisdom, most ladies and gents, would prefer not to have them if at all possible!
Skin Gift has many excellent skin care products that are developed from leading manufacturers that will help keep unsightly wrinkles away. Stop by our store to see Jan Marini’s Age Intervention Regeneration Booster, iS Clinical Eye Complex, Obagi ELASTIderm Night Eye Cream, and the Skin Medica TNS Eye Repair cream.

 If we could only go back in time! We probably wouldn’t have spent hours baking in the sun with little or no protection. If your skin is showing the mistakes from your younger years, TNS can rewind your skin to a younger time.
A three-part system is used to attack aging and sun damage from all angles. The first product used is TNS Recovery Complex. It contains one of the highest concentrations of growth factors for serious skin cell therapy. Growth factors stimulate cells to produce more collagen and elastin. Collagen gives that plump, youthful firmness while elastin gives tightness and snap-back to the skin. Recovery Complex will reduce wrinkles, fine lines, age spots and loss of elasticity.
In the morning you layer the Vitamin C Complex on top of Recovery Complex. Vitamin C is a crucial antioxidant that protects against damaging sun, pollution, smoke, etc. In the evening you layer Retinol Complex over the Recovery Complex. Retinol comes from Vitamin A. Retinols promote cell renewal, improve skin tone and texture, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
Misspent youth? Now it can be your secret!
