12 Anti-Aging Skin Care Ingredients You Need to Know About

EXCELLENT breakdown of ingredients--thank you! I was using products with Hydroquinone to lighten a small dark patch, when Niacinamide worked much more quickly and in a healthier way.

I really like Paula Begoun and I swear by her product knowledge and her website. This article highlights all of the important ingredients needed to help keep skin healthy. Excellent reading, especially for skin care newbies!

Retinol has been known to have great anti-aging properties.

This retinol product (Roc) is just as evvective as similar products costing $100 or more. And it has other "good for you" ingredients in it as well , like hyaluronic acid which helps your skin retain moisture , therefore plum[ing it up. As for the comment regarding mineral oil; there are many grades of mineral oil and, as a chemist, it doesn't prevent good ingredients from being absorbed (and a seven years old's skin and hair doesn't need any help).

very helpful list, thanks

I am going to keep my list of those great products that I want to check out in my purse because every time I have a chance to spend a few extra minutes checking things out at the store I can never remember which products I read about that were good for you and had a reasonable price, too!

Run,don't walk, to your nearest drug store and buy this cream! This is a fabulous buy and it really has scientifically proven ingredients to improve your skin help so it really looks better. Besides the Niacinamide, It also has Ceramides in it which plump your skin and wrinkles up. My face was beginning to get that kind of hollow cheek look. This cream, plumps it up. I could not believe the results! Works really well. Also, has Hyaluronic acid (an absolute must) which helps your skin retain moisture. I would not be without this lotion. It comes ion "AM" and "PM". I buy the PM not the AM because I personally do not like sunscreens. The price is a steal. I really love that I can apply more of it due to the very affordable price. I use it liberally on the backs of my hands and wrists, décolleté and elbows. I use many different creams, serums and peels, but try and always top it off with this because many of the others do not have all three of these very important ingredients. It is great to wear under makeup too. There is a new product in this line, I noticed when I was at Walmart, the other day. It is just a few dollars more and has other proven ingredients in it. I am going to buy that one as well. It is rare you can purchase an item such as this, which has the 'good stuff' in it, which some of the more expensive products don't even have in them, and get it at a price this affordable. Amazing product at an amazing price.

Totally agree with you Alexandra. All these big companies advertising everywhere, spending big bugs in marketing and brain washing yet product they advertised as a breakthrough, a miracle do not even contain enough ingredient to make any goodness to skin to the contrary speeding the aging with all that harmfull chemicals slowing down the nutrient flow through the skin composition. I would rather age gracefully then having cancer or destroying my skin early, speed the aging process. Look at those famous people, they advertised all those Lancom, Estee Lauder, Olay and the rest in the same bang vagon, aged so quickly ending up at doctors office for a procudure whether cosmetic or surgical. Thanks to some cheeky journalist, some of them they get caught. I hate Olay the most as advertised everywhere i look to the point it makes me vommit.

it all sounds really good,, but what are the other ingredients in it? make sure it has no mineral oil or petroleum derived ingredients they clog your pores and don't let the good ingredients get in. We use ARBONNE for all of our skin products, even my 7 yr old noticed the diference in her skin and hair

I always use Lifecell Skin cream as its has natural ingredients. After using various products i have got one perfect cream that is best for my skin. You can surely try this cream and I am sure that you will feel the same way i have. The best part about this cream is that has no side effects. They also offer the money back guarantee, so if you don't like it, you'll get your money back. Do visit this web site and check for all the details.

by ella_torres Saturday, April 2, 2011 at 01:44AM Report as inappropriate

I have an oily face, so which of these products would be best for me? I obviously cannot buy all of the products and use them all on my face, so is there a product or two that include most of these ingredients, out there?

by voncanont Tuesday, March 15, 2011 at 07:11AM Report as inappropriate

I just revamped my skin care because I could not keep paying so much for products with such crummy ingredients. Used this article to help me get some product ideas. Hope my skin does not freak out! :]

I use a AHA moisturizer by Racco Cosmetics that is doing wonders to my skin, and I highly recommend it. It is called Glicolic Acic Facial Cream with AHA, and it is very resonably priced: $24.90

anti aging??? best way is to just eat healthy and not put too many products on your face. My mom is 58 and her skin is amazing for her age!

I swear by Alpha Hydroxy Acid...you can get a good cream with it for cheap, and it has completely improved my skin tone and texture.

I have to say that Trilogy rosehip oil feels so much better than this and it is natural and organic too - give it a go !
