Skin Care and Natural Extracts
There are many natural extracts, each with distinct characteristics and dermatological properties, used in healthful skin care products. These natural extracts include: allantoin, green tea, rosemary, cornflower, cucumber, and Roman chamomile. Combined, these natural extracts help provide a healthful face cream for absolutely beautiful skin.
Allantoin is a healing, moisturizing, soothing, anti-irritating, keratolytic and non-toxic agent useful in dermatological and cosmetic preparation. It's an excellent raw material to use for dry skin because it protects against harsh ingredients like detergents. It is a cell-proliferating agent that stimulates healthy tissue formation. It acts as a chemical debrider of necrotic and scaling tissue while softening skin. It is used to treat: skin ulcers, scalds, wounds, burns, sunburns, carbuncles, acne and skin eruptions, fissures, abrasions, impetigo, eczema and psoriasis. It is quite effective at low concentrations.
Green tea extract is a powerful skin care anti-oxidant due to its catechin content. Clinical studies have shown green tea to prevent or at least postpone the onset of cancer and heart disease. This is attributed to the catechin component's ability to penetrate into a cell, protecting the cell from free radicals and associated damage. Green tea is also incorporated into anti-aging formulas because of its anti-oxidant properties. It has excellent anti-inflammatory and antibacterial qualities. It rejuvenates skin, prevents sun damage and promotes elasticity. It can be found in sunscreens based on its ability to extend the life of the product's SPF.
Rosemary extract has an attribute to the promotion of healing wounds. It is said to have astringent, toning, stimulating, deodorant, antiseptic, reactivating, antibacterial, softening and invigorating properties. It helps improve blood circulation thereby aiding in skin regeneration. According to some sources it has antioxidant properties making it effective for anti-aging products.
Cornflower extract is beneficial for normal skin and skin care products used around the eyes. It has healing properties, particularly in the case of bruises.
Cucumber extract has moisture-binding, moisture-regulating, tightening, anti-itching, refreshing, softening, soothing, astringent and anti-inflammatory properties. It contains amino acids and organic acids claimed to strengthen the skin's acid mantle. This extract can be used in aftershave preparations, eye treatment products and treatment for oily skin.

Skin Care: Effective Ingredients
Modern skin care products contain various ingredients that are effective for many purposes, including cleansing, healing, soothing and firming. The following is a list of ingredients to look for in these products:
ALLANTOIN is a chemical extracted from the comfrey root. It is an anti-irritant with healing and soothing properties that makes an excellent additive in face creams, masks and lotions.
ALMOND OIL is a vegetable oil extracted from almond seeds. It stays fresher longer than many other similar nut oils and for this reason it is used in many skin care products.
ALOE VERA is a natural moisturizer. It serves as a delivery system for other vitamins and nutrients in skin care products and can probably be considered an essential ingredient in almost all skin care products.
ALPHA LIPOIC ACID is an anti-oxidant with a powerful anti-inflammatory effect. The fat soluble portion of alpha lipoic acid is of tremendous benefit to the skin. Substances that are water soluble do not penetrate the skin very well, but fat soluble molecules do penetrate.
ASCORBIC ACID is a water soluble form of Vitamin C which promotes collagen production. Vitamin C also has anti-inflammatory properties and defends against free radicals in the skin created by sunlight, ozone and harsh chemicals.
CHAMOMILLA RECUTITA (MATRICARIA) EXTRACT is from chamomile which is one of the few herbs that has any value for the skin. A mild mixture of chamomile leaves produces an oily substance that is soothing to the skin. Matricaria is a derivative of chamomile that some experts believe hastens skin healing.
DMAE is a nutritional substance that can be found in fish such as salmon. It is an anti-inflammatory, anti-aging topical agent that increases skin health, tone and radiance. A landmark study in which DMAE and alpha lipoic acid were combined in a topical solution showed marked resolution in scarring for patients with surgical scars when applied twice daily. It can also reduce the severity of atrophic (indented) acne scars. DMAE can also act as a penetration enhancer to increase the anti-inflammatory effects of alpha lipoic acid. Topical application of DMAE has a cumulative effect and can decrease the appearance of large pores over time.
EVENING PRIMROSE OIL is a source of GLA (Gamma Linoleic Acid), an Omega-6 essential fatty acid which is a potent anti-inflammatory agent.
GLYCERIN is a clear, syrupy liquid made by chemically combining water and fat. The water splits the fat into smaller components, glycerol and fatty acids. It improves the spreading quality of creams and lotions and prevents them from losing water through evaporation.
GRAPESEED EXTRACT is important to skin care because it protects collagen from damage by free radicals, dampens inflammation and helps maintain the health and integrity of blood vessels.
GREEN TEA EXTRACT helps protect the skin from damaging free radicals. It contains powerful anti-oxidants called polyphenols that are also excellent anti-inflammatories.
HYALURONIC ACID is a substance found in human cells that helps hold moisture in the skin, as much as 300 times its own weight in water. This is an extremely effective ingredient that can also be quite costly.
JOJOBA OIL is an expensive oil extracted from the jojoba seed that can provide a good film of moisture.
KERATIN is the protein that is the primary constituent of the hair, nails and skin.
OMEGA-3 & -6 OILS are essential fatty acids important to skin health. The Omega-3 essential fatty acids dramatically reduce the body's production of inflammatory compounds. The active ingredients in Omega-6 oils are derived from linoleic acid.
PANTHENOL is a powerful anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory.
SQUALENE is a substance derived from shark lipid that contains large quantities of Vitamins A and D and has very good emollient properties.
TRIETHANOLAMINE is an alkali that handles oil well by emulsifying it.
UBIQUINONE preserves the anti-oxidant action of Vitamin C and protects cell membranes against oxidative damage.
UREA is a natural substance that removes dead, dry skin cells. Urea both soothes dry skin and stimulates cell growth in the epidermis. It is a valuable additive in moisturizers. It is an aquaphilic compound that both attracts water and prevents its loss. It is the dry epidermis' best friend. Acne-prone people should also use products containing urea as it seals in moisture without clogging pores.
VITAMIN A is probably the most important vitamin involved in the appearance of the skin. It can pas through the skins' layers and may exert an effect on the rate of keratinization of the skin. It is also an excellent ingredient in acne preparations, dry skin care and soothing creams for burns and irritated skin. Retinyl palmitate is a form of Vitamin A that some studies indicate turns into Retin-A (the acidic form of Vitamin A) in the skin. Retin-A appears to be one of the only products that when applied to the surface of the skin reduces lines and wrinkles and restores pink color to aging skin.
VITAMIN D is absorbed through the skins' outer layers. There is some evidence demonstrating that it exerts a healing effect on the skin when applied topically. It seems to work particularly well when combined with Vitamin A.
VITAMIN E is a powerful anti-oxidant.
This list in fairly comprehensive but by no means exhaustive. It is important to note that many of the above ingredients work well together and can have a synergistic effect when combined.

Exfoliation and Masks for Beauty Care
Clay and mud masks
Anthropologists claim that clay and mud masks have been used since before the time of written language. With their superior oil-sopping, pore-clearing, and skin-tightening abilities, these masks continue to be popular among those with oily and normal skins.
Clay and mud masks can generally be used once or twice a week. They are applied to clean skin and allowed to harden for 15 to 40 minutes, before they are rubbed off with a wet cloth and the face splashed until remnants are removed. While many of these masks contain only a special type of purified mud or clay, many also contain added extras such as sulfur, alpha hydroxy acids, herbs, or botanical extracts.
Peel-off masks
Peel-off masks emerge from the bottle as a gel. To use, spread a moderate amount of the cool-feeling mask evenly over your face. Do not miss any spots! When the mask has dried, start at the forehead and peel it off; dead skin cells, pore-clogging gunk, and other debris are removed with the mask. Peel-off masks can be used by people with oily, normal, and dry skins, depending on the mask's individual ingredient list; its bottle should mention what types of skin the product works best for. These masks can severely irritate sensitive or thin skin, and skin being treated with alpha hydroxy acids or trentinoin products.
Epidermal treatment masks
For a strong dose of therapeutic ingredients, your best bet is an epidermal treatment mask. These masks are packaged in face-shaped sheets that have been infused with active ingredients such as antioxidants, moisturizers, or alpha hydroxy acids. They are modeled after medical epidermal patches, such as the ones used to deliver nicotine to smokers. Epidermal treatment masks can be used up to three times weekly.
Studies have shown epidermal delivery sends active ingredients deep into the skin without causing irritation. For smaller areas, some companies make epidermal patches designed to treat specific problem areas.
Suffer from blackheads? Don't have time for an all-out mask treatment? Smooth a pore strip over the infected area and wait 15 minutes. Pull off the strip and voila - the sebum and dirt that were in your pores will be stuck to the strip. Pore strips are most popular for the nose, but some companies make versions for the chin, cheeks, and forehead as well.
Non-hardenine masks
Soft and soothing, non-hardening masks are applied thickly to clean skin and allowed to sit for 15 to 40 minutes before being tissued or rinsed off. Popular non-hardening masks include calming gel-style versions, which are often formulated to pamper sensitive or irritated skins, and creamy moisturizing formulas designed to hydrate normal to dry complexions.
Try keeping your favorite non-hardenine mask on in the shower. After cleansing your face, apply the mask and allow it to sit as you shave your legs, loofah your elbows, and shampoo and condition your hair. After 5 minutes, rinse the mask off The steam will open your skin's pores and help the mask penetrate faster, giving you results in a short amount of time.

Beauty Products For Blokes, is it Really Necessary?
When it comes to skin care products for men, the choices in a typical store range from products made solely for women, to products made specifically for men. These, however, smell more like a bottle of cologne than a skin care product. And even when a guy is able to find a skin care product, it is often difficult to use or still leaves the same irritated, oily or dry skin that is the very reason you are trying to improve your skin.
Why You Need Much More Than Soap
There are plenty of men out there who have had to put up with agitated skin that is can be dry, oily and unfortunately not their best feature. Many don't understand what the problem is because they wash their face with soaps, cleansers or various astringents and yet it still never really feels clean. There are a variety of skin care products for men from anti-aging lotions to eye contour gels that reduce the puffy eyes, dark circles as well as any signs of aging. Guys who have traditionally used soap or their shaving creams as a source of moisturizer won't believe the difference that can be found by using products that are genuinely designed to hydrate your skin!
One of the key elements of the skin care products for men, is their ease of use. High quality men's skin care products will contain the same active ingredients. This means that your skin is being continuously hydrated, nourished and improved around the clock. And especially for the guy's who don't want to spend a ton of time figuring out how to use the products or when to use what lotion, cream or gel, you can be assured the instructions are easy to follow and the minimal skin care routine will easily work for any guy.
How They Work
A unique ingredient known as CynergyTK is used in one of the most unique skin care product lines available. One of the key features of this ingredient is that it can reduce inflammation. Consider all the days you look in the mirror and notice red, agitated skin and only had a lotion product filled with fragrance to use. Instead of having a few red inflamed spots, suddenly your whole face looks like a third degree sunburn. With the carefully created skin care products for men, the lotions, gels and masks are all designed to sooth any irritated skin, not make it worse.
Your skin will also benefit from the rejuvenation ingredients. Whether you look every morning for the lines and wrinkles that are starting to creep up, or if you are lucky enough to be more than a few years from seeing any signs of aging, there are skin care products for men which reduce the signs of aging. The skin care products target some of the main causes of aging including a loss of collagen. There is plenty in the news about collagen being injected into aging skin but the best defense is to prevent it from aging in the first place. Collagen causes the skin to sag because it has lost its elasticity. By protecting your skin from this loss, you are more inclined to keep those wrinkles away from your face for as long as possible.
What Kinds of Products
There was definitely a time when men just had a choice of a plain old facial cleanser. With the many unique and well designed products now available men will find several types of products to help their skin looks its best. There are several lotions and masks for facial skin, but there are also body lotion products that have been designed with age defense ingredients. Younger, healthier skin can belong to you with just a few applications of these high quality skin care products designed just for men.
