Anti Aging Skin Care Treatments – Reality Or Illusion ?

Can Anti Aging Skin Care Products
Really Turn Back The Clock?

A quick look at the marketing presentations for the elite, big name skin care companies would have you believe that their anti aging skin care treatments turn back the hands of time and make you look “years younger”.

In fact not long ago I saw a commercial from a leading, global skin care company, claiming that their Retinol products are “ a breakthrough treatment clinically proven to give 10 years back to the look of your skin”. Wow!

SMOKE AND MIRRORS?

No matter where you look in the anti aging industry you can see similar claims being proudly highlighted for all kinds of miraculous ‘fountain of youth’ type products. Of course what we consumers really want to know is:

DO THEY ACTUALLY WORK?

Any of them?

Or is it all just make believe – smoke and mirrors – snake oil ?

Putting Together An Anti Aging Skin Care System !

How Many Parts In Your

Anti Aging Skin Care System

?

Are you currently using (or considering how to piece together) some form of effective anti aging skin care system to slow down the effects of aging and keep you looking your best?

Regardless of whether you’re young, middle aged or in your senior years people naturally want to look their best. And more importantly, we absolutely DON’T WANT TO LOOK OLD BEFORE OUR TIME! Unfortunately, that’s exactly what’s happening in western society and it’s a direct consequence of living in the ultra modern, twenty first century.

Civilized western lifestyles, compounded by the continually increasing effects of inescapable daily exposure to harsh and dangerous environmental and dietary toxins and stressors have resulted in a speeding up’ of the rate at which we naturally age!

The clinically established outcome of this precipitous health disaster, (which is still in the making), is the EARLIER AND EARLIER ONSET OF DEGENERATIVE DISEASE! This is clearly visible in the ever rising statistics for the incidence of all major degenerative diseases at younger and younger ages. Health conscious consumers have evidently woken up to this as exemplified by the skyrocketing profitability of the anti aging products and nutritional supplements industries in recent years.

But, living in a civilized society isn’t all gloom and doom for our health and beauty! The exciting truth of the matter is that with the technology and knowledge now available it’s not difficult to defy nature and look way younger than your chronological age. No doubt you’ve seen many examples of people in their 40′s looking like they’re in their late 20′s (and others in their 40′s looking closer to 60 years old!)

For along time these age differences have been put down to the “it’s in the genes” theory but this is now largely discredited by mainstream science. Most scientists now generally agree that genetics probably doesn’t play more than around a 10% role in the general manner and appearance of our health as we age (and a persons inner health naturally reflects on their physical appearance!).
