The Right Stuff: What to Look for in a Skin Cream

Our skin is an organ just like all the others within our body that we need to take good care of. Unfortunately, this fact is often overlooked and with time, the results of aging raise their ugly head.

Thanks to chemistry and understanding of the human body today, now we can make use of a number of topical creams, such as regenerist night cream. These treatments fight back against the natural effects of aging to leave the skin with a glowing, youthful appearance. So, what are some of the most important aspects to consider when choosing any skin cream?

Getting your vitamins and minerals
Throughout the day, our skin will naturally lose vital substances that need to be replenished. This is a completely healthy cycle and is necessary to remove toxins from our system. Still, vitamin C, vitamin E, and minerals such as silica and zinc, will become depleted. A good skin cream needs to have all four of these ingredients to be considered effective. In particular, the levels of vitamin E need to be appreciably high so that the skin can regain its elasticity (you don’t to look as if your little terrors are wearing you down!).

Everything under the sun 
The sun may call out to us to bathe out in it, but the accompanying ultraviolet radiation can severely damage the skin. Over time, this can even increase the likelihood of certain cancers, nasty to say the least. So, a good skin cream should also offer solar protection of SPF 30 or greater. It’s also a trustworthy sign if the cream doesn’t leave a sticky residue or wash off, as you may be considering visiting the beach. Thankfully, most quality creams are actually quite resilient to these factors and protect you amply against the sun.

Coming out at night 
At night, the human body secretes hormones that help replenish us after an arduous day (so that’s where we find the energy to cope with the kids!). Also, the pores of our skin will open up during this time. So, it only makes sense that evening creams are especially effective at allowing our skin to remain youthful and smooth upon waking. Treatments such as regenerist night creams provide excellent back up to daily lotions and will help your skin to stay elastic.

Above all, the best creams will contain few (if any) chemical additives and colors. Many will also offer a host of herbs such as ginseng that are claimed to promote rejuvenation over time.

By choosing the right skin cream, you can really hold back the years, or, if they’ve already started to take their toll, gradually turn back the clock for your skin. Who said time travel wasn’t possible!
