Natural Ingredients in Facial Skin Tightening Lotion

With the right lotion skin tightening for face and body is possible. Research has shown that some ingredients are effective when used at a high enough concentration. This article will tell you about which ingredients to look for. You will have to trust that the manufacturer is smart enough to use the right concentration.

Avocado Oil

Many plant-based oils are highly compatible with the skin’s own sebum. So, they are very effective moisturizers. The petroleum-based oils that most cosmetic companies use, including mineral oil and petrolatum, are not moisturizing.

Avocado oil is not only moisturizing. It has the added ability to stimulate collagen production and increase the amount of collagen present in the dermis of the skin.

The oil is used, primarily, in anti-aging night creams. It is a little too heavy to wear under makeup during the day. Grape seed oil is a better choice for daytime moisturizers.

If your skin is dry, it will not look as firm. If it is moist, it will look firm and tight.

Wakame Kelp Extracts

With a wakame kelp lotion skin tightening for face is possible, because nutrients in the kelp inhibit the activity of an enzyme called hyaluronidaise. Hyaluronidaise breaks down the skin’s hyaluronic acid, which is one of the compounds that keep the skin’s cells tightly packed together. Wakame kelp extracts have been shown to inhibit hyaluronidaise activity by 52% at a 5% concentration.

Active Keratin

Keratin is a protein that makes up the skin’s outer layers, but including it in skincare products has been challenging, to say the least. Finally, one company has come up with patented processes that allow keratin to be softened and still remain active. The old procedures broke up the protein strands and turned them into goo.

With the regular use of an active keratin lotion skin tightening for face or body is definitely possible. Volunteers participating in one trial had a 40% improvement in firmness after only 18 days of use. Those are the most impressive results ever seen with a non-invasive treatment.

Coenzyme Q10

The key to improving the skin’s firmness is stimulating the production of collagen and elastin fibers. The antioxidants coenzyme Q10 has been shown to do that in several clinical trials.

The problem with many antioxidants is that they cannot penetrate through the skin’s layers. The molecules are too large in size.

Normally, COQ10 molecules are too large, but through the use of nanotechnology, it is possible to reduce the size of the molecules, so that they penetrate deep down into the dermis layer, where the collagen fibers are located.

With the use of a COQ10 lotion skin tightening for face and body, wrinkle reduction and sun damage reversal is possible. But, you will need to be sure that the manufacturer uses the smaller particles of COQ10. Otherwise, you won’t see the best results.

Some of the best lotions contain both COQ10 and active keratin. With that type of lotion skin tightening for face and general de-aging is possible, regardless of your skin’s current condition, as long as the manufacturer uses the right concentration.
