WHAT IS THE BEST NATURAL REMEDY FOR WRINKLES?

Finding the cure for wrinkles has been prevalent, especially for women, since Cleopatra’s era. Although many products have been developed and advanced over the past centuries, few if any can actually boast being “the cure” for this natural aging process. Cleopatra credited her youthful skin to her daily use of milk and honey for washing and bathing her skin. Another well-known French beauty from the late 1600′s, Ninon de L’Enclos, was still so physically alluring at the age of 90 years old that young men fell hopelessly in love with her. Her face was as smooth and free of wrinkles at 90 as it had been at 20. Louis XIV declared that she was the marvel of his reign. Paintings of her from ages 50 to 85 show her with youthful, clear, wrinkle free skin. Her secret, which was later revealed around 1710, was a simple balm made from beeswax, lard and onion juice!

Although anti-aging skin treatments from Cleopatra’s and Ninon’s eras, and even the most highly advertised “wrinkle creams” on the market today, cannot stop the natural aging process of the skin, studies have shown several natural and herbal ingredients can certainly slow the process down significantly. I will be covering a few of the most effective of these ingredients a little later.

Firstly, let’s do some “Wrinkles 101″. Wrinkles are visible creases in the skin. Wrinkles form as the skin loses collagen, a protein that allows the skin to retain fluids that support a smooth, supple contour. As the collagen-filled elastic tissues underlying the skin are increasingly damaged, wrinkles deepen and become more prominent. Exposure to ultraviolet light and free radicals accelerate the process. Frequent exposure to sunshine results in premature skin wrinkling and increased pigmentation, called liver spots. Exposure to cigarette smoke means exposure to toxic free radicals that also contribute to wrinkling. In women, smoking exacerbates skin wrinkling that occurs after menopause, canceling out the anti-wrinkling effects of estrogen treatment. Other factors that can lead to premature wrinkling include poor diet and nutrition, poor muscle tone, habitual facial expressions, stress, lack of proper skin care, excel sun exposure and heredity.
