Anti-aging ProductsFree radicals (also known as Reactive oxygen species, ROS) is the main and primary cause of aging. Free radicals occur naturally, damaging our cells. Many anti-aging products are to reduce free radical reaction by strengthening the cell membranes. Anti-aging wrinkle cream or lotion for eyes usually contain retinol, vitamin A1 or a mixture of vitamins A1 and A2. Vitamin A functions in normal cell growth and development.
Wrinkles One of the major factors associated with wrinkles is the loss of collagen and elastin from the skin. Collagen and elastin serve to make the skin firm and increase its elasticity.While genetics can influence the degree of wrinkling the skin will show, and gravity is a fact for all of us, other factors can dramatically increase the incidence of skin wrinkling. Some of the worst of these include sun exposure, smoking, habitual expressions, and constant lack of moisture in the skin. Both the cumulative effects of sun exposure over time and most especially the suffering of sunburns (particularly repeated sunburns) will cause the skin to show much more wrinkling. This happens because ultraviolet rays from the sun damage the elastin fibers in the skin. Just like the name sounds, elastin acts much like elastic, allowing the skin to "snap back" into place after stretching. When the skin fails to return to its normal tightness after being stretched, it will sag and the result will be wrinkles. Smoking affects the skin in much the same way, damaging the elastin fibers. Studies demonstrate that persons who smoke generally have more wrinkles than a nonsmoker of the same age, skin type, coloration, and amount of sun exposure. The effects of smoking are cumulative, like sun exposure. Therefore, the longer a person smokes, and the more heavily they smoke, the more wrinkles they will develop. Facial expressions can also play a role, such as when a person repeatedly makes an expression that creases the skin in the same way. However, it is possible to correct this factor by exercising the facial muscles in a correct manner and learning to consciously control the expressions that promote deep creasing.

Fighting Wrinkles One of the easiest ways to fight wrinkles (especially when it is already too late to prevent the effects of the previous factors) involves properly moisturizing the skin. An important secret to preventing wrinkles and solving skin aging problems lies in keeping the deeper layers of skin well-hydrated and replenished. Effective wrinkle-prevention creams moisturize deeply and promote elasticity, allowing the skin to both stretch and then re-tighten to its former smoothness instead of sagging when it is stretched, causing wrinkles.
