Radiant skin is indicative of healthy, youthful skin. Eating well, getting enough sleep and exercising regularly will go a long way towards achieving that glow you desire. Here are 4 skin care ingredients proven to help deliver radiant skin:
1. Topical exfoliants. Exfoliation is an important part of any skin care routine because it helps to remove dead skin cells that can lead to a dull complexion. Choose from a range of products including exfoliating scrubs and chemical based alpha hydroxy acids such as glycolic acid, mandelic acid or lactic acid. For face, consider M2 HP Refinish Serum or Neostrata Skin Renewal Peel Solution. For body, products such as Epilyt lotion and Lac Hydrin work wonders.
2. Vitamin C . A workhouse skin care ingredient, Vitamin C has many skin benefits including an increase in collagen synthesis, protection against free radical damage and an increase in the skin’s moisture content. At concentrations greater than 5%, Vitamin C has been shown to help depigment and lighten leading to more radiant skin. Look for Vitamin C in Neostrata Skin Brightener.
3. Sunscreen. A well formulated UVA/UVB blocking sunscreen is the most important skin care product. Not only will it help to prevent against wrinkles, but it will also help to minimize dryness and discoloration that comes with unprotected exposure to the sun’s rays.
4. Moisturizers. Dry skin presents with flaky patches that can lead to a dull complexion. Apply a moisturizer morning and night and spot treat as needed throughout the day.
