Age Spot Lotions That Even Out Pigmentation Naturally By Valerie Rosenbaum At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

The disadvantage of age spot lotions is that can lighten any part of the skin that they touch. This means that you could still end up with uneven pigmentation. Why not instead look for a cream that will even out pigmentation on your face or body. This article looks at the natural ingredients that have been proven to even out pigmentation and make the skin look younger, at the same time.

No matter your skin type, you should be using a moisturizer on your face and body every day, right after you shower. What’s the reason?

Showering strips away the skin’s natural moisturizers. Even plain tap water, without any cleanser strips away protective oils. Dry skin looks older and more wrinkled. If your moisturizer contains the right ingredients, it will even out pigmentation, reduce wrinkles and improver moisture content, as well as firmness.

If that sounds like more than you could expect, then you are used to cosmetic companies that make grandiose claims, without any real basis. But, you really can expect age spot lotions to de-age your skin. The latest research has proven it.

One of the ingredients that you must look for is coenzyme Q10, just be sure that it is natural COQ10 and not synthetic. Some scientists might argue, but there is no way that a synthetic nutrient could be as effective as a natural one.

Research has shown that coenzyme Q10 repairs sun damage and that’s what age spots actually are. They aren’t related to your liver or even how old you are. They are melanin clumps caused by overexposure to the sun.

When you are out in the sun, UV rays cause an overproduction and excitement of free radical molecules within the skin’s cells. Research has shown that levels of COQ10 are quickly depleted as the molecules try to neutralize the free radicals, before they can damage the skin cells and collagen fibers. But, if you continue to stay outdoors, without protection, they lose the battle.

Most age spot lotions do not repair free radical damage. They simply inhibit melanin production, which is why they lighten other areas of the skin. Creams containing a special formulated all natural coenzyme Q10 can repair free radical damage, as well as preventing further damage from occurring. They have been shown to reduce wrinkles, improve hydration and soften.

If all that you want to do is fade the spots, please be careful when you are shopping for age spot lotions. Many of them contain an ingredient called hydroquinone. Lots of sources will tell you that’s a safe ingredient. But, if it’s safe, why has it been banned from skincare products manufactured in the European Union? It has been banned, because it is associated with an increased risk of skin cancer.

A safer ingredient, that also inhibits melanin production, is a natural extract from a plant called cyperus rotundus, nut grass or Motha. Hopefully, you see that you have many choices, other than hydroquinone age spot lotions. Take my advice and shop for safe all natural ingredients. In the long run, you’ll be glad that you did.
