A natural wrinkle reducer is the thing we pray for when we hit a 'certain age', I've noticed.
What's more, there are plenty of cosmetic companies that claim to have creams that are both natural and reduce wrinkles.
Sadly, most of what you find in the stores doesn't live up to the claims on the labels. The components might be natural, but reducing wrinkles takes a lot of know-how and research that cheap skin care product makers just don't have.
While this is true on one hand, on the other hand I have decided we can't blame businesses for trying to sell us natural wrinkle reducer creams and wrinkle filler. The beauty product retail market in this country alone in 2007 was worth $16 billion and is set to grow to $21 billion a year by 2012. It's just too attractive and lucrative to resist. And this explains is why there are so many skin care manufacturers advertising natural wrinkle reducers.
But you don't need to be caught by glossy advertisements and celebrity endorsements. Let me quickly explain some simple science -- how wrinkles can be reduced and what will reduce them. When you know this you'll be able to spot a real natural wrinkle reducer when you see it, and sidestep the other ones that will never work.
Putting it simply, we get wrinkles because the collagen protein in our bodies begins to break down when we reach that 'certain age' I mentioned at the beginning. For many of us, at mid-life this extremely important protein begins to lose its force after decades of giving our tissues, and especially our skin, structure, rigidity and flexibility.
Unfortunately we can't just get some collagen and rub it back in. The molecules are too big to pass through our skin. (Which is a good thing. After all, our skin was given to us as a barrier against a hostile world. Right?)
But there are natural substances that can be introduced into our bodies which will rejuvenate our supplies of collagen. They go in and stimulate our system to naturally generate more collagen. And when that happens the wrinkles and tell-tale signs of ages in our skin get rolled back. We regain some of our youthful looks.
Keratin will do this, for example. It's a protein we all have in our body and if you can introduce more of it, it will stimulate your declining reserves of collagen to rejuvenate and continue to give your skin and tissues the firmness and flexibility that is characteristic of youthful skin. Keratin is included in some skin care products, but almost always it is the plain, simple form of the protein which is extracted from the waste parts of dead animals using acid under temperature. Personally, I wouldn't put it anywhere near my face.
Rather I suggest you consider the Functional Keratin that has only recently become available as the result of some ground-breaking research that made it possible to extract it gently from the clean wool of selected sheep.
Functional Keratin can penetrate deep into your skin and start o rejuvenate the collagen that you are losing. I would highly recommend you seek out natural wrinkle reducer that has Functional Keratin as a key ingredient. If you need help to find the creams that this new form of the protein has, I have some suggestions on my web site.
But you can also search Google for it -- a natural wrinkle reducer that contains Functional Keratin should lead you to the answer to our prayers. Studies I have read show this protein give sustained 14 percent improvement in skin moisture retention (over 18 days) and a better performance in skin elasticity of 42 percent over the same time period. That's impressive!
So, what I am trying to say is, you can find natural wrinkle reducer advertisements in any glossy magazine. But the only ones that will do you any good contain protein, like Functional Keratin, that will stimulate and rejuvenate your dwindling supplies of natural collagen which used to keep your skin flexible and firm.
Find a cream with this as a major ingredient and your prayers for a natural wrinkle reducer that works will be answered.
