When choosing a Night Cream, there are two basic things that one should know about the particular Night Cream:
1. Does it provide Antioxidant Protection?
2. How much Collagen Production does it provide?
What do we mean by Anti-Oxidant Protection?
Essentially, they are substances that reduce, neutralize, and prevent the damage done to the body by free radicals. Free radicals are simply electrons that are no longer attached to atoms. Instead of circling the nucleus of an atom, free radicals crash/smash through our cells, inflicting damage as they go. They can affect all different cells of our body including: the deterioration of bone, joints and connective tissue; the destruction of internal/external organs; the decline of our immune system; the advance of the visible effects of aging.
The best night creams to neutralize the effect of Free Radicals on your skin are a combination of these four natural ingredients. These four ingredients provide anti-oxidants qualities to reduce and eliminate the harmful effects of Free Radicals. They are:
a. Vitamin E: Vital in protecting skin cells from ultra violet light, pollution, drugs, and other elements that produce cell damaging free radicals
b. Honey: Beneficial to the skin as it has the ability to attract water and to nourish the skin deeply.
c. Avocado oil: One of the natural oils that is the most easily absorbed by the skin and transported deep into the tissue. It’s ideal for dry, dehydrated or mature skins.
d. Shea butter: melts at body temperature and absorbs rapidly into the skin without leaving a greasy feeling.
To improve collagen production there are two very important ingredients that you should look for. They are:
Nano-Lipobelle H-EQ10 This is a special ‘nano-emulsion’ form of CoQ10, which penetrates 7 layers deep into the skin, thereby providing much greater benefits for skin health. It is extremely effective in reducing free radicals in your skin.
Cynergy TK Developed by a research team in New Zealand, it is a cutting edge substance, that stimulates the body's production of collagen fibers, because this natural substance can be “used” by the skin to create both collagen and elastin, thereby promoting firmness and elasticity.
