DRINK Your Best Face Forward!
Tuesday, March 31, 2009 at 02:03PM If you recall from high school biology, your skin is the largest organ in the human body. Its primary function is to provide a barrier of protection from the external environment. It performs the duty guarding you against sun, harmful microorganisms and toxic substances. It does it well. But to keep your skin healthy and looking its best you need to provide it a little help in the fight against the external and internal factors that effects it’s appearance.
By having an effective daily skin care regimen, you help fight both the internal factors of the natural aging processes, your genetic make-up, and external factors. Using gentle cleansers and hydrating crèmes will keep your skin looking youthful while providing a level of protection from the outside world.
However, as your skin protects you from exposure to sun and pollution, free radicals are generated and free radicals are considered to be key components in the degradation of healthy skin. For example, skin redness and inflammation and uneven splotchy skin tone are all linked to free radicals! What’s a girl to do!
Time to DRINK your best face forward! This is where what you put inside your body is just as important as the products you put on it. Your skin needs help from the inside to help neutralize free radicals. The skin naturally does this with antioxidants such as vitamin C and vitamin E; however, if these antioxidants become depleted, then cell degeneration can occur. Cell degeneration leads to the breakdown of collagen and elastin which are key building blocks to healthy skin. When these building blocks break down, there is an increase in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
You can not totally avoid free radical production. It is a natural byproduct of everyday living. The goal is to make sure you always have more antioxidants than free radicals in your system, because if free radicals are produced in excess, due to overexposure to the sun, pollution, and other external toxic substances, then your antioxidant supply becomes depleted. That’s why it’s critical to replenish these antioxidants to protect your skin.
SnapDragon helps you with this balancing act! It is formulated with a long list of hard working ingredients, including antioxidants to help fight the free radicals in your system, 7 daily vitamins, collagen, green tea, white tea, red tea, aloe vera, foti, ginkgo biloba and baobab fiber. No preservatives or sugars added – you’re sweet enough! Nutritious and delicious. Enjoy!
