How To Refresh Your Skin With Antioxidants


What are antioxidants? Antioxidants are molecules that can help prevent the damage generated from oxidation of free radicals. In your everyday life you probably encountered oxidation. An example of oxidation is like when you cut an avocado and it turns brown. Free radicals can impact your skin by causing oxidation and can have a negative impact such as premature skin aging. Antioxidants can help neutralize free radicals so that they don’t cause too much damage. While your body produces some antioxidants, you need to make a conscious effort to incorporate them into your diet and skin care routine.


Know Your AntiOxidants Vitamin C is an effective antioxidant — it can help brighten the skin’s appearance. It’s ideal in helping to minimize the appearance of fine lines, dark spots and skin dullness. Vitamin E is a fat soluble vitamin whereas Vitamin C is a water soluble vitamin. These two vitamins together may be beneficial for skin care. Vitamin A is also known as retinol in skin care and it may be useful in the fight against the effects of skin aging. Retinol has exfoliating qualities and can help smooth skin’s appearance and help it look firmer.


Cleanse Effectively Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and lukewarm water to remove impurities and sweat that might have accumulated on skin’s surface. Avoid harsh soap as this can strip your skin.


Use A Serum Apply a product formulated with retinol/pro-retinoid or other antioxidants (Vitamin C, Vitamin E, reservatrol, etc.) to help neutralize free radicals that may have found a way onto your skin over the course of the day. Shop imported face serums at mybeautybazaar.com


Apply A Cream That Works In Your Sleep Lock in the antioxidant goodness you just applied to your skin with an extra layer of cream. If you have dry skin, you can slather on something nourishing to add moisture to your parched skin; a product formulated with ceramides or glycerin is ideal. Those with normal, combination and sensitive skin should use something hydrating, but not greasy so that your skin can still breathe and you won’t wake up with excessive shine or breakouts. Give skin an extra boost at night with an anti-aging cream that really works.


Be Mindful Of Your Nutrition A diet with lots of natural antioxidants such as leafy greens (spinach, kale, broccoli), fruits (citrus fruit, berries, pineapple), and fish can help you feel and look your best.
