Vitamin A derived skin care products can be found in many anti-aging beauty formulas. The antioxidant effect of vitamin A helps rejuvenate the skin from deep down within the collagen fibres working hard to reverse damages caused by free radicals from sun damage, smoking and other environmental factors.

Keep in mind that excessive vitamin A is not excreted like vitamin C or B. Vitamin A Is a fat soluble vitamin meaning that it is stored in the body. Eating a couple of carrots is not going to hurt.

How Your Skin Ages From Birth to 100

Putting genetics aside, you’ll notice a significant difference in your skin with each decade of life. Every phase has its challenges.

From the day you were born, you’re faced with thin fragile skin that is prone to eczema and other sensitivities. As you move into your teenage years, the increased oil production leads to breakouts and blemishes. Moving pass your oily acne years, you’re now faced with drier more dehydrated skin and fighting against fine lines. And as you get pass your 50s, your collagen production becomes weak and elastins become fragile leading to the challenges of wrinkles and skin sagging.

So as you can see, every phase of life has new skin challenges. The main idea however, is to maintain a consistent skin care regime using the ‘right’ skin care products for various aging phases.

AGE IS ONLY A NUMBER. You can easily slow down the clock by maintaining a healthy diet, having regular sleeping and eating patterns, controlling your stress, participating in vigorous exercise and AVOIDING THE DIRECT SUNLIGHT…… REPEAT AGAIN……STAY OUT OF THE SUN.

Lets go through the the changes in your skin from 0 – 100.

Puffy Eyes

Late nights, body dehydration, excessive alcohol, lack of sleep, computer work, allergies and even reading can all lead to swollen puffy eyes.

Normally, the eye puffiness you get in the morning when you wake up should calm down and disappear by mid-morning when the excessive eye fluid that has accumulated throughout the night is drained away. Swelling that doesn’t disappear rapidly once you’re out of bed is commonly caused by allergies, dehydration, or hormonal changes.
