Natural Skin Care Remedies - Avocado Is The Glue That Holds The Body Together

What’s so important about collagen ?

Our skin is mainly made up of collagen –mainly 80% of the dry weight of the skin is made of collagen. It is the main structural protein found throughout our body. Collagen provides the strength our tissues and organs need while elastin provides the ability to stretch and recoil.

Collagen works hand in hand with elastin in supporting the body’s tissues. It gives the body tissues form and provides firmness and strength. Elastin gives the same body tissues much needed flexibility.  Some people refer to collagen as the “glue that holds the body together”

.

The goal in natural skin care skin rejuvenation is to have a treatment that stimulates new collagen development. Any collagen cream claiming to give immediate results will not be long lasting.  Increasing collagen does not happen overnight as it takes time for a substance to bond with your skin naturally.

It has been scientifically proven that avocado oil stimulates an increase in  the amount of  soluble collagen in the dermis layer of the skin.

 

Although avocado oil is officially a vegetable oil, it is really a fruit because it has a stone.

Avocado oil penetrates into deep skin tissue. It enriches, nourishes and revitalizes the skin. The oil is rich in vitamin A, D and E.  The oil contains proteins, lecithin and amino acids.

Avocado Oil is  highly therapeutic and is said to have regenerating properties. This oil is ideal for mature and dry skin, or for sensitive and problem skin.

   It also relieves the dryness and itching of psoriasis, eczema and other skin ailments. It is very useful when treating sun, climate or chemical damaged skin that is dehydrated or undernourished.  Avocado oil is very high in nutritional value and will help keep your skin healthy.

 And it stimulates collagen production.

Natural Skin Care Treatments with Alpha and Beta Hydroxy

ALPHA HYDROXY, BETA HYDROXY And POLYHYDROXY ACID

              ANTI-AGING SKIN CARE FROM HOME

Skin care products that are on the market today contain Alpha Hydroxy or

Beta Hydroxy Acids and are usually somewhat expensive. They are all the rage since they were launched in the 1980’s.You can achieve the same benefits that are found in these expensive creams using all natural anti-aging skin care from home.

Alpha Hydroxy is primarily derived from fruit and milk products. They work by speeding up the loss of dead skin cells and thinning the stratum corneum (the outer layer of the epidermis).  In the process they create a tingling sensation. The key mechanism of AHA’s is setting off a wound-healing response in the lower dermis, which triggers increased collage production and has a visible anti-wrinkle effect.

The combination of fewer wrinkles, smoother skin, and fresher color can produce a remarkable change in your skin, sometimes in only a few days.

Many exfoliating products now contain PHA’s (Polyhydroxy Acid). They have been chemically modified to be gentler.  Beta Hydroxy, such as salicylic acid, are cousins of AHA but more oil soluble. They are also stronger, more irritating and not as widely used.

Salicylic Acid is a type of Beta Hydroxy (commonly found in acne treatment creams). It penetrates your pores and gets beneath the sebum and dissolves and exfoliates dead skin cells.

 A simple recipe for an effective mask for acne-prone skin is: 

             Mix honey and aloe vera together.  Crush and dissolve an aspirin tablet
             and add to honey and aloe vera.

            Apply to skin for approx. 10-20 minutes. 

This mask helps to exfoliate the skin, soothes painful pimples and de-plugs any blackheads.

A great recipe for a mask for mature skin is:

              1 teaspoon honey

              A few drops of orange juice

Mix the two together well.  Spread the mixture over entire face, even around the eyes and mouth. 

Leave on for approx. 20 minutes.  Remove with warm water.

If used regularly, it can stave off those fine lines that appear as we get older.
