Dry skin can be a curse. What natural ingredients are there that would make a difference to a dry skin problem?

Many people are less interested in anti aging products than just tackling one simple problem. What do do about dry skin.

And the cracking and peeling associated with dry skin, and itchiness, and redness, and so on.

Here’s 2 natural ingredients that can be found in the best skin care products to tackle dry skin. There are of course prescription medications available on the market to tackle dry skin. But many people prefer not to use any prescription medications, and prefer a natural organic approach to skin care.

Phytessence Wakame. This is a Japanese seaweed that is native to Japan, and is a large part of the Japanese diet. It is prized by the Japanese for keeping the skin looking youthful and has a large role in moisturizing and smoothing the skin. It is packed full of vitamins and anti oxidants, all important for skin health, and is also rich in minerals, particularly calcium, which help maintain the skin’s moisture balance.

And research has also shown that one ingredient in Phytessence Wakame ( sulfated polyfucose) helps work as a natural protector from sunburn as well.

Jojoba oil. Jojoba oil is an oil that is extracted from the oil of the Jojoba plant which grows mainly in North America. For many years native Americans used Jojoba oil for it’s healing properties.

And the oil of the Jojoba plant also has quite some important moisturizing properties. In particular it is chemically similar to sebum, the oil produced by human skin, and so is an extremely effective moisturizer and skin softener.

And it helps reduce wrinkles and skin marks too.

Why is it such a good moisturizer? Studies have shown that it is both absorbed into the skin so it helps moisturize it, and also forms a non greazy layer on the skin that keeps the water out so the skin doesn’t dry out so much.

Where would you get skin care products that contain Jojoba oil and Phytessence Wakame? You get them at Xtend Life, where you find the best natural skin care products that are ideal for dry skin as well. Read the rest of this entry

What is Phytessence Wakame and what does it do for your skin?

You probably won’t find Phytessence Wakame listed in the ingredients of your current skin care and anti aging skin care products. Look on the label to see.

That doesn’t meant that Phytessence Wakame is not one of the best and most effective ingredients that it’s possible to put into a skin care and anti aging product, because it is.

It just means that modern skin care and cosmetics companies aren’t using the best ingredients in their skincare and anti aging products. Because for them it’s all about sales and profits, and as not too many people know about Phytessence Wakame it won’t drive sales to put it in, despite the fact that using Phytessence Wakame is probably one of the best things you could do for your skin.

How do you “use” Phytessence Wakame? Well you could do what the Japanese do and eat it, but you mightn’t enjoy it quite as much as they do. That’s because it’s seaweed.

Yes Phytessence Wakame is seaweed, found growing naturally around the coast of Japan, and the Japanese eat it. It’s a big part of their diet, both fresh and dried.

And Phytessence Wakame is packed with all sorts of things that are just great for your skin. Like most of the B group vitamins, and essential minerals like iron and potassium and calcium. It’s got about 15 times more calcium in it than milk does.

And it does wonders for your skin when used in a high quality modern natural skin care product routine.

And all these help to keep your skin hydrated, healthy, and looking young. Supple, well toned and youthful, right  into your old age. That’s the main reason why Japanese women have such great looking skin as they grow older, and now that science has established why Phytessence Wakame is so good for the skin, it’s also the main reason why Phytessence Wakame is so highly prized in Japan.

But there’s more. Phytessence Wakame helps inhibit the effects of hyalondurase. What’s hyaluronidase? It’s a substance that breaks down hyaluronic acid in your skin, and as hyaluronic acid is good for your skin you don’t want it broken down.

Hyaluronic acid  is an essential component of our skin. When combined with collagen and elastin it helps maintain the suppleness and tone of your skin, and maintain skin health. All important to prevent the visible effects of aging on your skin. Read the rest of this entry
