It's springtime in Utah, where we are based, and the blossoms are at their glorious peak. The pink, white, and purple flowering trees are breathtaking. Crocus, daffodils, and tulips are blooming everywhere. I was skiing in deep powder just a couple weeks ago. Talk about extremes!
Have you ever wished your skin could be renewed like plants in the spring? Guess what? It can. Amazing "new age" botanical discoveries and powerful, nutrient dense, Australian Superfruits may be the closest thing to a new "spring" for your skin.
Today's post focuses on the best face creams to look younger:
Kakadu Plum Powerhouse Anti-Aging Serum Concentrate
Lemon Myrtle & Lavender Anti-Aging Youth Serum
Lilly Pilly Ultimate Eye Rescue
Just as Mother Nature rules the seasons, she is the skin-renewing power behind these products. In this trio, there are over 22 plant-based ingredients. I have dedicated previous posts to the Australian Superfruits Kakadu Plum, Lilly Pilly and Quandong. In today's post, I want to highlight some of the other key ingredients in Australiana Botanicals best face creams to look younger. These are all designed to work together to give you healthy, vibrant and youthful looking skin. And to help you stay that way!
Aloe Vera
Many people have used the thick Aloe gel straight from the plant to soothe a sunburn. It contains Auxin and Gibberellins, two hormones that reduce inflammation and help repair damaged skin. It also contains proteolytic enzymes that spur the growth of new skin cells (a new “spring” for your skin). Aloe is also used to treat acne, psoriasis, and eczema.
Grape Juice
Deep purple grape juice is so vibrant that it's not hard to imagine that it's full of vitamins. Grape juice works on lines, wrinkles, and age spots to reveal younger-looking skin. Its Vitamin C boosts collagen growth for increased elasticity and firmness. Resveratrol is the star nutrient in red grape skins and for anti-aging skin care because it increases skin tone and firmness while shrinking lines and wrinkles. It's a powerful anti-oxidant and used in a host of health foods because the polyphenols in Resveratrol are believed to prevent conditions like heart disease and cancer. As such, it may protect against skin cancer.
While other skin care companies use diluted cosmetic grade Resveratrol from China, we do not. We use undiluted, pharmaceutical grade from the USA. The difference in effectiveness is very significant.
Apple Juice
Apple juice has antioxidants including Vitamin C that protect against free radicals. As mentioned previously, Vitamin C also supports collagen production. Apple juice is an excellent toner and helps keep skin pores clean—helping to prevent acne breakouts in the process.
Sunflower Oil
Sunflower oil is rich in multipurpose Vitamin E, your skin's best friend. Vitamin E is an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and super-moisturizer. Sunflower oil can also protect skin from UV damage.
Jojoba Oil
The Jojoba is a drought-tolerant shrub that grows not in Australia but in North America. Like Australian bush plants, indigenous tribes have used it in topical and ingestible medicinal preparations for eons.
Jojoba oil comes from the nut of the shrub. Unlike other plant oils, Jojoba is very similar to the waxy sebum produced by our skin glands. Because of this, our skin readily absorbs it and lets it go to work. Jojoba oil seals in moisture and protects against irritants. Jojoba is also an ideal carrier oil for Australian essential oils.
Micro Algae
It's not surprising that Micro algae has been popping up in the best face creams to look younger. Micro algae is an excellent skin hydrator, detoxing agent, and pore-tightener. It also minimizes wrinkles and lightens age spots for spring-like youth and radiance.
These are just a few of the safe, natural, plant-based ingredients in our best face creams to look younger. Our philosophy is "natural" is always better. Nature has a remedy for just about everything, including slowing aging. Many skin problems come from the skin not being sufficiently nourished, or lacking in some particular nutrient. Our products are designed to richly nourish your skin and to give it all it needs to look healthy, vibrant and youthful.
In future posts, I will highlight the other ingredients we use in our anti-aging creams, masks, and serums. I hope you are enjoying spring (or fall in the Southern Hemisphere) wherever you call home. Thanks for visiting my blog. I am always happy to answer any questions about our ingredients and their benefits for youthful skin.
