Many people rely on cutting edge science to research new ingredients to produce cutting edge anti aging products that produce better skin health. However in reality the best ingredients to be found in the best anti aging products have been known about for centuries, and they have, for all that time, have been known to have a role in improving the health of your skin. Seaweed and sheeps wool are 2 examples of this.
What do sheep and seaweed have to do with skin aging? In fact there has been a seaweed skin care link for hundreds of years. For centuries Japanese women have used seaweed for great skin care.
Seaweed, and in particular Phytessence Wakame, a particular type of seaweed found around the coast of Japan, has been eaten by the Japanese for centuries. And it is no coincidence that Japanese women have some of the best looking skin in the world as they age. And the Japanese have known about the seaweed skin care link for a long time.
Phytessence Wakame has always been prized for its properties in promoting better skin health.
Cutting-edge science has now found why this ancient ingredient is so good for your skin, and as a result there are some excellent seaweed extract skin products now available. The reason has to do with enzymes. There is one enzyme in particular, called hyaluronidase, which breaks down collagen and elastin which are big components of your skin.
Collagen and elastin are very important to help maintain the elasticity of your skin and it is elasticity that helps keep your skin supple yet firm. It is elasticity that helps keep wrinkles away and the loss of elasticity leads to wrinkles and skin sagging. If hyaluronidase breaks down your collagen and elastin that's bad.
Modern science has now discovered that there are very important components of Phytessence Wakame that help reduce the actions of hyaluronidase, thereby helping maintain the levels of collagen and elastin in your skin and helping to maintain skin elasticity leading to less wrinkles.
But how about the sheep? Science now knows of the link between seaweed and skin aging but why would sheep have anything to do with good anti aging?
It's about collagen and elastin again. Science has also discovered that there are some important ingredients in sheeps wool which, when applied to the skin, help stimulate the skin to produce more collagen and elastin all by itself. These components of sheeps wool have now been formulated into a patented product called Cynergy TK that is found in the worlds highest quality skin care products. It also helps increase levels of collagen and elastin in your skin to help keep those wrinkles away.
So cutting-edge science has discovered why age-old ingredients like seaweed extract and sheeps wool can help produce optimum skin health and the result is some excellent seaweed skin care products which use extracts of Phytessence Wakame and Cynergy TK.
