It’s not as easy as it once used to be when one considers selecting a brand of skin care products for daily use. In the “old days,” it was just as easy as finding a good skin cream with some vitamins and aloe vera, and “bam” you’ve got a solid skin care product.

These days, as companies make advancements in the skin care industry, they are smartening up and adding ingredients with clinical tests behind them in order to formulate top-notch skin creams. This article will aim to define some of those ingredients and help consumers find the best products for their daily skin care regimen.

The idea with skin care is to look younger, have smoother skin, get rid of wrinkles, and freshen up the area of skin under the eyes, for the most part. At least, those are the main reasons people buy skin care products. After a daily moisturizer, it appears that eye creams are among the most sought after skin care products among most people. Wrinkle-treating creams are also a strong seller, as many of the baby boomers look to reduce the depth of their facial wrinkles as well as smooth fine lines that develop along the expression lines and forehead.

This past decade has seen some great advancements in skin care products. For starters, you have companies using antioxidants in their formulas more than ever. Resveratrol, the powerful anti-aging ingredient that received praise from Barbara Walters, among others, is used in many skin care products for it’s powerful antioxidant properties. Other than ascorbic acid, it’s one of the more commonly used antioxidants other than various fruit extracts. Acai berry extract is another leading antioxidant, and if you can get past all the scamming diet pill companies that use it, you can find a wealth of good information about this magical berry imported from the Amazon forest in Brazil.

Other advances include the importation of cosmeceuticals from far-away labs such as Sederma in France. These ingredients are normally the most advanced and discussed among skin care experts, due to the fact that most are clinically-tested. This means that these ingredients, when used in the suggested concentration, can have a documented effect on test subjects, and customers buying a cream of similar concentrations can usually expect similar results. Common cosmeceutical ingredients include Haloxyl, Eyeliss, and the best wrinkle-treating ingredient (by most people’s accounts) Argireline. These all have fancy INCI names, (like Argireline, which you may know as Aceytl Hexapeptide 3)but you can look for them in Google as they are not as easy to remember as the names I’ve listed them by in this commentary.

Due to the cost of importation and advanced formulating, these products usually cost more than common skin care products that use basic ingredients that have been used for many years. However, the proof is in the pudding, most companies that make these products are among the hottest-selling in retail stores and on the web. If you are looking for an advanced skin care product, I suggest you take a long hard look at scientifically advanced cosmeceutical products.
