My morning facial ritual is a routine activity: wash my face with a gentle facial cleanser and apply moisturizer. But lately it's not enough. I've noticed fine lines appearing beside my eyes and around my mouth. Wrinkles at 30? No way! Wrinkles are a cause of great concern among women especially for those in their 30s. Fine lines around the mouth and eyes may be visible without make-up. They become deeper and more defined as we age. Every anti-aging skin care product ever made have made amazing claims to delivering immediate results from reducing fine lines to completely eliminating wrinkles, but these media hyped propaganda can only be proven true when the active ingredients in those products have done what they were expected to do. Active ingredients like Argireline and Matrixyl which are peptides have shown positive results based on research studies. Argireline which is also known by its chemical name Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 or AH3 is considered as a safer alternative to botox. It is topically applied and not poisonous at all. It actually inhibits the release of neurotransmitters that initiate and control the intensity of muscular contractions on the face, thus relaxing the neural endings in wrinkles and getting rid of signs of tension on the face. Based on a clinical study published by the International Journal of Cosmetic Science, AH3 was able to reduce the depth of wrinkles up to 30% after just 30 days of continued use, and a 17% reduction of fine lines around the eyes after only 15 days of treatment. What's more impressive is that the tests showed a 39% improvement in smoothness, 42% improvement in dryness and 45% improvement in overall skin tone. Regular use of the product and application of it limited only to those problematic areas can lead to positive results. A similar peptide ingredient, Matrixyl (also known as Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-3), has shown to be as effective as Retinol in repairing sun-damaged skin and reducing fine lines but without the harmful side effects. It can also be considered as a safer option to use for people who develop skin irritation from retinoids or alpha-hydroxy acids. These two peptides are synthetically made but are considered safe for human use. When combined with copper, a natural trace element in all living cells, they can stimulate the production of collagen in skin and may enhance the action of antioxidants. Selecting the best antiwrinkle cream can be a risky decision to make.
