Hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid helps you fight dryness by acting as a sponge and retaining the moisture of your skin. This magic molecule is known to hold around 1000 times its own weight in water that boosts suppleness and hydration in your skin. It actively fights skin ageing and brings softness, firmness and elasticity in your skin and face.
Retinol
Your skin starts ageing when the process of skin renewal stops or slows down. This is where retinol comes into the picture. Retinol is known to slow down the ageing of new cells, build collagen and boost cell renewal. A derivative of vitamin A, it works deep into your skin to stimulate the production of collagen to fight deep wrinkles.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is a wonder material that is crucial for your health, hair and skin. It is rich in antioxidants and fights premature ageing. Vitamin C is known to remove excess oil from your skin, boost the production of collagen, reduce fine lines and wrinkles and fight dullness to give you a more elastic and firm skin.
Salicylic acid
Salicylic acid is a chemical compound that penetrates deep into your skin to unclog pores and fight skin problems like blemishes, acne and breakouts. It exfoliates your skin and refines your pores to slow down damage, and skin ageing. It also refines your skin texture, making it brighter and smoother. Usually not found in organic form, salicylic acid is widely used in skincare products like L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Crystal Micro Essence which with daily use accelerates skin renewal & mildly exfoliates to refine pores & skin texture.
Resveratrol
A plant compound found in the skin of red grapes, Resveratrol is a powerful antioxidant that stops the ageing process by producing collagen and elastin. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that firm the skin and removes wrinkles. It is called the queen of antioxidants and is also found in peanut and berries.
Though a balanced diet, healthy lifestyle and good skincare regime is essential for your youthful skin, it is equally important that you have these crucial anti-ageing ingredients in your body to retain your youthfulness. While some of the active ingredients are usually present in your body, some others have to be replenished through skincare products that recover the lost moisture of your skin, renew your cells and slow down your cell ageing process.
