Can anti aging creams really help turn back the hands of time or is it all slick marketing and snake oil? These products promise a lot but can they walk the walk? Many people use them believing they will work other refuse to waste time, but can these products really make a difference. And if they really do work should they be considered a drug and regulated by the FDA? Right now no product are including anti aging skin cream or serums.
The anti aging world revolves mainly around active ingredients things like amino acids, peptide bonds tetra peptides are buzz worthy. These ingredients usually involve chemical reactions with active ingredients that help do thing for the skin. There a few studies for these products but some swear by the results where others say its all bunk.
The best products use science to back them up. Ingredient made by nature that have been shown to have good results. These products can do anything from help cuts mend faster to help the body produce collagen faster to keep the skin looking young and firm. Keep in mind you cannot just rub collagen into you skin, your body actually has to produce it or it will not accept it.
The King of Proteins
Collagen is a protein that your body makes that helps create skin cells. It makes up groups of connective tissue, this tissue is what keeps your skin firm. When your body produces college your skin looks and feels younger. The younger you are the more collagen you have but as you get older those bonds start to get weak and your skin starts to sag. Because your body is aging it cannot naturally make collagen as fast which leads to wrinkles.
Many people do not like needles so ant aging creams help make the skin younger without painful and expensive surgery. When given the choice what would you choose? Can these treatments actually give you better results then a procedure? The real question is, for you which is better? These products all contain natural botanicals, herbs and vitamins that help make skin healthy.
Be aware of the products that promise the world and have no guarantee. These are the ones that will probably not work. You want a product that fixes the age lines not that just relaxes the skin to make them go away. There are some products that simply relax the muscle, this process works but is only temporary. You want a product that will rebuild collagen not relax the muscles for long term results.
Here are some active ingredients and what they have been shown to do: Pentapeptide – is a sequence of repeating proteins that for a chain. This has been shown to aid in certain protein production in the skin. Palmitoyl Oligopeptide – refers to the base structure of the proteins. These are known by being a sequence of amino acids which are the backbone of the skin. Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 – Helps reduce the effects of aging by reducing wrinkles. It is also know as Argireline.
These ingredients have been proven to help with aging and also have some healing properties. Anti aging creams are cheap compared to cosmetic procedures and natural. They do take longer to work but have better and more gentle long term effects. Overall we have seen how natural ingredients do in fact work in anti aging skin care. They have been proven time and time again to not only work but help turn back the hands of time.
Research shows there is a better chance of green tea being applied to the skin (such as green tea lotion) verses beingswallowed at which it might be able to prevent skin cancer. Research also shows that putting these chemicals into a lotion might work better at preventing skin cancer than using your everyday sun block. There have been numerous amounts of studies of skin benefits of green tea. Green tea appears to remove sun damage protection by quenching free radicals and minimizing inflammation rather than by blocking UV rays. Therefore, green tea may synergistically promote sun protection when used in combination to sunscreen.
What are some of the Green tea benefits? Green tea helps fight off the free radicals, free radicals are molecules that are missing an electron. In other words free radicals are oxygen that contain molecules that damage our DNA. Free radicals can form in ones skin for many different reasons, such as to much exposure to toxins. Patients who have been exposed to cancer have been treated with Green Tea, with its ability to fight cancer. Research is being preformed to see what types of cancer green tea will benefit and give the most promise too. Green tea has a high importance for us to live longer and healthier.
What about wrinkles, and other signs of aging? Could green tea lotion help? Considering the research that has been documented antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, and topical green tea applications are more likely to slow down the development of some signs of aging. Whether green tea lotion can actually diminish wrinkles is far more uncertain.
Considering all the evidence above I would say green tea can’t hurt ones well being. I would definitely say using green tea lotion would benefit a person and even taking green tea internally. Green tea has many benefits and these are just a few.

The benefits of Emu Oil are far ranging – from very common use in hair products to skin care.
Emu Oil is what is known as a “carrier oil”. It has the ability to deeply penetrate the layers of the skin (and scalp) unlike many other oils such as Jojoba, Mineral or Argan. This penetrating property allows its healing abilities to treat common skin problems where they start – most often in the dermis layer of the skin.
It is a natural anti-bacterial making it ideal for treating burns, cuts, and wounds (even scars from surgery or injury). It is also an anti-inflammatory having the ability to reduce inflammation, irritation and to soothe itchy and redness.
The video below is a quick overview that discusses some of it’s benefits that include treating skin rashes, acne, abrasions, and stretch marks. It can be used by itself or combined with other lotions, creams and shampoos to generally improve efficacy of the product. There are a range of Emu Oil products available and you can find it as a key active ingredient in many high-end treatments.
Truth be told, Dermory ST isn’t a one of a kind product, but that’s okay. Considering that the market is already dense with products ranging from mediocre to outright ineffective, all it needs to do to stand out is become a skin rejuvenator that ranks among the best skincare creams available, or at least actually work.
Right from the outset, Dermory ST has a lot going for it marketing- and promotion-wise. That’s because it’s a brand that specifically caters to improving and firming female breasts via the topical solution method. It has become well known for targeting its’ niche – specifically firming vs. claims of many competitors of “enlargement”.
Not to use a play on words, but “enlargement” is pretty tall task. However, “firming” is achievable with the right ingredients, and that is where Dermory ST has found its home – and effectiveness.
In a world where incredibly effective breast augmentation procedures exist (breast implants and “jobs”) and creams are more often than not as effective as cheap supermarket lotions in achieving what they promise, Dermory ST shouldn’t even stand a chance. Well, against surgical breast improvement procedures, it doesn’t; but for effective firming and mositurization, it does.
However, it isn’t a cheap skin moisturizer that happens to have a “breast firmer” sticker attached to it either. Buy the product and feel its effectiveness for yourself. It has been formulated with several specific ingredients we feel get the job done…
BioBustyl – This ingredient was specifically researched to firm and tighten bust tissue. Much of the sagging following weight loss, nursing, or pregnancy comes from sagging caused by loss skin on or around the breasts. BioBustyl firms tissue and gives the appearance of enlargement by helping restore natural shape and “perkiness”. Similar to anti-wrinkle ingredients such as Matrixyl 3000, BioBustyl adds shapeliness while resisting wrinkling and sagginess.
Hyaluronic Acid – Another of our favorite ingredients, Hyaluronic Acid restores and helps retain moisture in the skin cells membranes. While this may not seem like a big deal, lost moisture creates dryness, shrinkage, flaking and accelerated aging – adding to the “sagging” and drooping breasts. Skin feels softer and firmer – just what we;re looking for.
Antioxidants – Free-radical damage promotes sag. Antioxidants such as green tea help protect cell membranes and in some cases may help repair damage tissue, making skin look and feel younger – again, more of what we’re looking for in a breast cream.
Admittedly it takes a while before you can begin to see the difference in your breasts’ shape and texture, but like a steady weight loss regimen or constant exercising, patience and devotion are indeed the virtues you need in order to optimize Dermory ST’s performance. To be able to attain youthful, teenager-like firmness and fullness to your breasts, you need to follow the directions that come with this product to the letter and adjust to it accordingly.
To many people, this may seem like too much a hassle in order to get the sexy body that they long for. If that’s the case for you, consider the pros and cons of using a cream against a surgical procedure first. On one hand, the cream is safer. On the other hand, invasive surgery has a chance of becoming irreversibly botched up. On one hand, the cream is more inexpensive, and can be stopped at any time if it proves to be ineffective. On the other hand, breast implants will cost you hundreds or even thousands of irretrievable dollars.
With all this in mind, the Dermory ST Breast Cream gets a good 8.99 out of 10 stars considering its limited but verifiable effectiveness, its cost, and how it stands up against its true main competitor, cosmetic breast surgery. It works, but not dramatically so, and that’s the best you can ask for a topical agent. But, for a “breast enhancement product” we feel its effectiveness, price and ease of use warrant a close look.
In the first post on smoother skin, we talked about the “top 3″ of proper care – cleansing, hydrating (moisturizing), and treating. Each are equally important to prevent enlarged pores, avoid rashes and keep your complexion soft and smooth.
Not to get to detailed, but we (the consuming public and manufacturers) can break down each of these areas and take a closer look at some things that work and some that don’t – and why.
There are a lot of skin care products for smoother skin – they come in a wide range of applications, mix of ingredients and a multitude of bases. The market has been segmented to the extreme as everyone looks for the miracle product that will make us look younger. Cream, abrasions, exfoliators and moisturizers all vie for the dollar you are going to spend.
But do they work?…do they help?…really? Well as a researcher, formulator and manufacturer, I would argue that it depends on the ingredients and what your goal is. I’m ot trying to talk in circles, but that’s what it boils down to.
For instance, moisturizers have been considered a regimen staple going back a long time. I remember my Mom applying a mask every night. The general purpose is to rehydrate the tissue. Even years ago, we recognized dryness and tightening and believed re-hydration was good. In fact, it was and is. The cool thing now is we have so many more effective ingredients than 40 years ago.
In the past 10 years, the most popular ingredient for moisturizers has become Hyaluronic Acid. It has found its was into wrinkle creams, solutions for skin rashes, burn treatments, and for chronic or acute drying. It is naturally found in our cells and becomes increasingly depleted as we age.
Many biologist and dermatologists believe it is the accumulated effects of free-radical damage that causes us to lose and produce less hyaluronic acid. If so, it certainly is a convenient response to why tissue becomes thin, dry, and wrinkled as we continue to age. So, to re-hydrate and moisturize look for creams or serums with Hyaluronic Acid. The effects are almost immediate.
Another couple of ingredients to loo for are Aloe and Emu Oil. Aloe most of us are familiar with. It makes a great base for a cream – especially serums. Its widely used in beauty and anti-aging products – working well for facial and wrinkle solutions, especially as an eye smoother. One of the challenges older men and women have is neck wrinkles. Particlularly sun damage and natural aging can show premature wrinkles on the neck giving the appearance of unsmooth skin. If this is what you are experiencing, look for the best neck cream that can add moisture and reduce the sagging wrinkles at the base of your neck.
Emu oil is less well known, but has become a premier (and fairly expensive) ingredient for pitted acne scar treatment, burns, and stretchmarks. I’ve put up a few posts regarding Emu Oil, and at the risk of oft repeating myself, it is great. It has been used for years in Australia and New Zealand for wound healing. It deep moisturizes, and clinical studies have shown it is super-effective at both repairing and improving the complexion. A pretty good combo.
So, there are a few things you should look for when considering products for smoother skin. Each help soften, reduce enlarged pores, help retian moisture, and in some cases, help purify tissue to rid bacteria, oil and dirt. Another idea you should consider is using skin tightening exercises for the stomach if you have been dealt the hand of flabby skin on the tummy. These exercises will help give you smoother skin by improving and strengthening underlying muscle and connective tissue. They will also help improve tissue flexibility, thus tightening the abdominal area.
