Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic Acid is a carbohydrate occurring naturally throughout the human body. It has a stiff viscous quality similar to jello. It can be used both inside and on the skin to produce remarkable results. Hyaluronic acid is capable of holding up to 1,000 times its own weight in water, which boosts moisture levels and minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid has been shown to maintain hydration, improve elasticity and protect against free radical damage. In the skin, hyaluronic acid is responsible for capturing water, in turn maintaining the smoothness and plumpness of the skin. When hyaluronic acid is depleted, skin can become dehydrated and lose elasticity, which accentuates lines and furrows. Hyaluronic Acid can be found as an ingredient in many products, or on it's own as a concentrated 100% Hyaluronic Acid serum. Dermatologists also inject it into the skin for faster results.

The DMAE skin miracle. Yes, that's right, I said miracle. DMAE (dimethylaminoethanol) is an anti-inflammitory substance that, when applied to the skin shows immediate results -- it reduces fine lines and wrinnkles, it works on  the musles under the skin to effet a younger, more toned look.

While results are immediate, they are also cummulaative and over time the skin sags less, deep lines and wrinkles are reduced, skin tone evens out as the face becomes brighter. It also helps to combat the sagging that oten occur around the eyes as we age. It even works on those "old lady bags" as like to call them on the upper arms, firming them up nicely making for a much more  youthful appearance. While DMAE iss not cheap, it is well worth the price and is often included as an ingredient iin many popular skin cremes.
