+ Common Causes and Effects of Environmental Aging
Say what you will about the state of the environment and the effects of global warming, but it
is clear that the same sun which nurtures, protects, and warms us can also be very damaging. After spending an hour in the sun, there can be little doubt that there is something going on with the ozone layer. The idea that too many UV rays can damage our skin is no longer just a theory; many women—and men, for that matter—are wearing the truth of the matter on their faces. UV rays can be extremely damaging and invasive, especially in overabundance. This can lead to environmental aging, which can involve pigmentation—better and more correctly known as hyperpigmentation—and sun damage, which is also known as solar photodamage or photoaging. As you may have learned if you have seen the Resurgence® Infomercial, both of these things can be the direct result of too much exposure to the sun and its harmful ultraviolet rays. However, there are many other causes for this type of environmental aging as well. First off, let us take a more in depth look at the specifics of hyperpigmentation and sun damage. Anyone can suffer from hyperpigmentation, no matter what your skin type, though people with fair or pale skin show the effects much more readily. The same can be said of sun damage. People who have fair complexions are far more likely to suffer more from photoaging, which is one of the biggest components of skin damage caused by the environment. Hyperpigmentation happens when the cells that produce melanin—which are located at the base of epidermis—are activated and begin producing too much pigment. There are many factors which can cause this problem, including exposure to the sun, hormones, prescription medicines, a deficient amount of the B12 vitamin, and a post inflammatory response. In the case of hormones, pregnancy can cause pigmentation, as can some types of birth control pills. Other prescription medications which can cause hyperpigmentation generally include various types of antibiotics and other medicines. Sun damage can be caused by sun exposure as well, namely radiation caused by UVA and UVB rays, which weaken collagen and elastin. Ambient light, such as exposure to ultraviolet rays through windows, can also cause photodamage. Murad’s Resurgence® offers a variety of products which can help combat environmental aging caused by these factors. There are definite ways to tell if you are suffering from either hyperpigmentation or solar photodamage. In both cases, you might have age spots, uneven tints and colors in your complexion, or freckles where you never had them before. You may also notice fine lines, deep wrinkles, and less elasticity in your skin. Other symptoms include a very coarse texture to your skin in addition to a leathery appearance. Another giveaway occurs if you have acne—you may notice that breakouts leave behind a discolored pigmentation and take longer to heal. Yet again, Murad Resurgence® has several products available which can help with all of these symptoms, even wrinkles and age spots, which in the case of environmental aging are much different than those which come naturally with age. You might be saying to yourself that you have been out in the sun for years and have not seen any of the effects of environmental aging. You need to understand, however, that it can sometimes take years for these signs to show up in and on your skin. For that matter, the sun is not the only weather related factor which can cause environmental aging. Being exposed to such things as smog and pollution can have negative effects on your skin as well; and, as mentioned, sometimes the sun’s rays can even sneak through the windows. You also need to understand that your face is not the only place where you may see these effects. In a great many cases, our hands are the first parts of our bodies to show any age at all, and this is even true of environmental aging. Even if you wear sun screen every time you spend any time in the sun, think closely—are you applying sun block to your hands as well? Or are you starting to notice the presence of age spots and freckles where you never before saw them? You should ask that question about your chest as well, which is another place that the effects of environment aging often make an appearance. There are ways to combat this too, however; by taking advantage of the Resurgence® TV Offer, you will find several effective creams and treatments which can take care of the signs of aging on both your hands and your chest. To this end, it is vital to recognize the differences between melanin as it applies to people with dark complexions. People with tan complexions have more melanin, which may make them think that they are less prone to the sun’s rays. However, in the overall scheme of things, a suntan is the same as a sunburn, and your skin will remember these effects, even if the evidence does not show up until later in life. Subscribing to a skin care regimen like the many plans offered by Resurgence can protect you like no ordinary, every day sun screen can. You should also never underestimate the importance of freckles. While it is true that sometimes a freckle is just a freckle and that sometimes, they are genetic and/or hereditary, the appearance of freckles when you have never had them before can be a strong indication of sun sensitivity, which means you need to take extra efforts to protect yourself and your skin. You can combat environmental aging in a number of ways. As mentioned, you can subscribe to a daily skin care plan like the one offered by Murad Resurgence, you can stay away from tanning, whether you do it out in the sun or in a tanning bed, and even quitting smoking can keep your skin looking young, fresh, and healthy. + The Different Types of Aging and Their Effect on Your Skin
Some things are just a fact of life. For women, menopausal is as inevitable as menstruation
itself, and it involves just as many changes. Of the many affects of menopause, hormonal aging may be one of the worst, simply because it is out there for everyone to see. Menopause is an extremely emotional time, and suddenly looking in the mirror to see fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin when none of those things were there before can just add to the shock of it all. Because, you see, although it is a natural part of life, menopause evokes a sense of loss for a lot of women. There will be no more babies, no more menstrual cycles – and a lot of women believe it is also the loss of firm, taut skin and healthy skin tones, unless they are willing to have some kind of cosmetic surgery. Perhaps that was true once, but thanks to the line of Resurgence products, it does not have to be true any longer. One thing you need to understand about menopause is that contrary to popular belief, not all of it occurs solely at the onset of middle or late middle age. You can start seeing some of the effects as early in your twenties. These are known as the perimenopausal years and they can last upwards of two decades – from your twenties to your forties. Of course, for some women, the span may be longer, while for others it could be shorter. The point is, even the “shorter” versions involve a long, drawn out process. One thing you need to understand about aging in general is that there are many different kinds, although all of them are interrelated. For instance, hormonal aging occurs, as the name suggests, because of changes in hormones – namely progesterone, estrogen, and androgens. The production of the former two decreases while the production of the latter increases. Some of the changes include the weakening of collagen and loss of elasticity, and skin which turns dry, dull, thin, and more susceptible to damage. Murad Resurgence, however, can help with many of these factors. For example, the Renewing Cleansing Cream is not only an exfoliation regime which gets rid of dead and dry skin cells, it also makes your skin more radiant – it will make you glow, while keeping your skin hydrated and full of essential moisture. There are thoughts that menopause is at least partly genetic – ergo, if your mother started going through menopause, or at least exhibiting the signs and effects, at an early age, the chances are good that you will as well. Like the process of menopause and hormonal aging, it is thought to be a natural progression of age and appearance. Similarly, if one or both of your parents aged well or aged badly, there are genetic chances that you will follow suit. If both aged well, you are in luck; if both aged badly, you are not. If one parent aged well and one did not, you have a fifty/fifty shot for either one. Genetic aging can manifest as dry skin, as well as a lack of collagen and elasticity – very like the symptoms, so to speak, of hormonal aging. For many years, people held the opinion that there is really nothing to be done about genetic aging – again, unless you wanted to pay a high price, financially and sometimes physically, for collagen injections to replace what was being lost. However, a good skin care regime such as the one marketed by Resurgence can help battle the signs of this type of aging as well. For example, the Age-Diffusing Serum can make your skin much more supple by increasing its elasticity and making it firmer – sagging skin will look toned again. + Understanding Menopause and How It Affects Your Skin
Menopause – if you are a woman, it is one of life’s inevitabilities. There is nothing we can do to
stop it. There is nothing we can do to get away from it. In some ways, the emergence of menopause makes many of us feel like school girls again – after all, how many of us plotted ways to get out of having a period when we started menstruating? Would that we could – except really, just as menstruation is a new, beautiful part of a woman’s life, so is menopause. It can be extremely hard to think about it that way – at first. However by learning the main facts about menopause and some of the things you can do to remedy the aspects of it that generally upset and affect us the most, you will be off to a fantastic start. Menopause is loosely defined as the period in your life when you stop having periods – which further means that you can no longer get pregnant. At least, that is true for most women, but there are exceptions to every rule. Succinctly, menopause is the act of your ovaries making less estrogen and progesterone, which are essential hormones important to menstruation and pregnancy. There is no set age or time frame when menopause automatically starts; it is different for every woman. On average, women start going through menopause around in the age of 50. However it can began as early as 51 and as late as age 59 – if not earlier or later. In fact, women can start experiencing the physical and hormonal effects – such as aging skin – as early as their 20s and 30s. No matter what age you are, if you notice that your periods are becoming erratic and/or gradually stopping, simply go see your doctor. He or she can do some tests that will indicate if you are starting menopause. Keep in mind that the entire menopausal process generally takes years from start to finish. Normally, the rule goes that if you have not had a period for an entire year, you are likely beginning menopause. In addition to changes in your monthly menstruation cycle, there are some other signs and symptoms of menopause which can indication its beginning. Sometimes you start bleeding more heavily, more often, or for longer periods of time than you normally would. Hot flashes are a universally recognized sign of menopause as well. There are changes in appearance as well – for instance, the skin around your vulva can grow thinner, and sometimes urinary tract infections and other problems occur. It is not uncommon to experience frequent headaches during the onset of menopause either. As well, you may notice that you have insomnia or simply do not sleep as well as you once did. Conversely, you may also be tired and fatigued. These contrasting symptoms are generally due to night sweats and hot flashes. Of course, there are also physical symptoms which go along with menopause as well. If you have ever seen the popular Resurgence Infomercial menopause and hormonal aging can have a serious effect on your skin. This is one of the things that makes women dread menopause so much. The prospect of not being able to have children can be devastating; the emotion associated with that is only exacerbated by suddenly seeing fine lines and wrinkles where once there were none. It may seem slightly superficial to think that a few wrinkles and age spots could bring on depression, but it is so much more than that. Everything changes with menopause. It is not uncommon to feel that the ways in which you defined yourself as a woman have broken down completely. This can cause intense feelings of isolation and displacement, which are only emphasized when your skin’s elasticity and the radiance once in your eyes begin to fail you too. You do not have to deal with those factors however. It is vital to embrace menopause, to accept this new phase of your life with wide open arms – but that does not mean that you have to simply roll with the physical punches. You may not be able to stop menopause from coming on, but you can stop the way it affects your skin. There are numerous anti aging skin care tips which can help you. For instance, during menopause, there is one thing you need to remember at all times: keep your skin moisturized. In addition to the infomercial, if you have ever seen the Resurgence TV Offer, then you know how extremely important hydrating your skin is, especially in terms of keeping it looking young and healthy. As it happens, Murad Resurgence offers a variety of products which will do just that, including a three step skin care regimen. The Renewing Skin Cream is lavish and creamy; it not only moisturizes your skin but also removes dry cells and impurities. It is a natural product which helps restore youth and vitality to your skin. The Resurgence Age Diffusing Serum can help in your battle against hormonal aging by increasing your skin’s firmness and elasticity. In addition, it diminishes wrinkles – medium to deep ones at that. Then, too, there is the Age Balancing Night Cream, which works as you sleep to moisturize your skin, making it smoothing and softer. As seen in the Resurgence television offer, you can also benefit from the from the Glow Bonus Pack offered by Murad Resurgence. This pack includes the Acne Spot Treatment, which quickly and effectively deals with those blemishes bound to pop up when your hormones start changing. The Renewing Eye Cream addresses the thinning, darkening skin around your eyes, while also diminishing the appearance of wrinkles. The Sheer Lustre Day Moisture SPF 15 is vitally important, because the sun’s harmful UVA and UVB rays can damage your skin as well, in addition to exacerbating hormonal and menopausal aging itself. You will also get the Skin Health Guide created by Dr. Murad itself, which contains a wealth of skin care tips and information. + Looking as Young as You Feel: Anti Aging Tips
Contrary to popular belief, you do not have to spend a fortune in order to look just as young as
you feel. There is absolutely nothing wrong with taking care of what you got, of maintaining what you have been given, and making the most of any age you happen to be, whether it is twenty eight or fifty two. The fact of the matter is, hormonal aging can start affecting women when they are still in their late twenties, so starting to think about anti aging skin care at twenty eight is actually a good idea. Even if you are already in your mid forties, though, and already in menopause, there are still a lot of things you can do to simply restore your skin and maintain a youthful appearance proportionate to the way you feel inside. If you have ever seen the Resurgence Infomercial, then you know that the best way to go about an anti aging skin care regime is to take a full body approach to wellness and health. After all, you are more than just your skin, and while that is vitally important, you have to take care of yourself as well. The Resurgence way of thinking is undoubtedly much healthier than believing you need to have surgery or crash diet or any of those things, to keep yourself looking and feeling young. Never forget, being healthy is actually the first step to doing both of those things – and really, health is the most beautiful thing of all. Now, there is no question about the fact that a good, effective skin care line is a must have for any anti aging regimen. However, there are also some simple things you can do with other parts of your face. For instance, there is also denying the fact that dull or yellow teeth frequently signify age. There are several things you can do to keep those pearly whites dazzling. For one, you can brush regularly with a whitening tooth paste. You can also get over the counter whitening strips or gels. A word to the wise, though, the strips are much easier to use, way more convenient, and way less messy! You can also talk to your dentist about teeth whitening options. Back to your skin, however, there is one important word you need to remember at all possible times: moisturize. Your skin can begin losing moisture as early as your late twenties as well; it gets worse as your estrogen levels start to decrease, taking your skin’s collagen with it. When dry and dead skin cells build up on the surface of your skin, it leaves you with a dull, rough looking, and very lackluster complexion. It just looks old, in other words. To add to all of this, your skin also begins becoming thinner as collagen breaks down. When coupled with all those dull skin cells, the overall effect is even worse. Fortunately, to these ends, the Resurgence line of anti aging skin care products can help you in a number of ways. To begin with, the first step in the three step line is the Renewing Cleansing Cream. As the name suggests, it cleanses your skin, eliminating all those dead skin cells and getting rid of other impurities in your skin. It also protects its natural moisture barrier. It is also an extremely rich and creamy product, and thus helps moisturize your skin. Another thing you absolutely have to do is protect yourself against the sun. It is, of course, impossible to just stay inside during the daytime, all the time. So, failing that, protect yourself with a good, strong sun block. Resurgence can actually help you here as well. When you take advantage of the Resurgence TV offer, you get all the benefits of the Glow Bonus Pack. One of the treatments offered in this special product is a comprehensive sun block. The Sheer Lustre Day Moisture SPF 15 not only protects you from the sun’s harmful, drying rays, it also moisturizing your skin and makes your complexion luminescent and glowing, thanks to a special blend of minerals. However, it is only recently that the sun has been widely recognized as damaging. As little as wenty years ago, many of us spent entire portions of our own and our children’s childhoods out in the sun during the summer. Some of us are already dealing with those effects. In addition to dry, rough, leathery looking skin, they also include fine lines and wrinkles, particularly noticeable when paired with thinner, fragile skin. Yet again, however, Murad Resurgence comes to the rescue. Step two in the excellent line, the Age Diffusing Serum, actually restores firmness to your skin – by as much as 42 percent – and even reduces lines and wrinkles, even if they are deep. For some of us, those lines and wrinkles show up around our eyes, along with dark circles. Resurgence thought of everything, though. Another product in the bonus pack, the Renewing Eye Cream, takes care of those wrinkles – again, even if you have deep ones. At the same time, it restores the delicate, tender skin around your eyes and makes it firmer. You also need to take care of you, in order to remain looking youthful and feeling your best. This means staying fit. You have to exercise regularly. Go to the gym or take regular walks, anything as long as you are working your muscles, your heart, and your longs. Besides, exercise also helps your bones stay strong, it makes your posture stay straight, it relieves stress, and it just makes you feel better. Add into that a healthy, nutritious diet, and yet again, you are golden! Finally, because it is important – moisturize! And once again, Murad Resurgence has your back – and your skin! Step three, the Age Balancing Night Cream, is an advanced moisturizer comprised of a special formula specifically designed as an anti aging tool. Not only does it restore the moisture your skin loses each day while you rest, it also promotes a much faster turnover rate for new, healthy cells. This leads to a smooth, youthful complexion, supple skin, and minimized pore size. + The Whole Body Approach to Healthy Aging
Have you ever seen the Resurgence Infomercial Then you have also seen the Resurgence
philosophy as it applies to aging, and specifically, the aspects of anti aging. Considering the images we see on television – and every other media outlet – about age and especially aging women, that view is a refreshing, honest, and altogether healthy one. If you have no idea what that view is, wonder no more. The best way to approach anti aging is to take a whole body approach to it. In other words, do not just concern yourself with your skin, do not obsess ove those wrinkles, lines, age spots, or even the tone and texture over your skin. All too often, that can lead to ultimately unhealthy anti aging methods. To put it simply, some women would rather have themselves injected with something or cosmetically enhanced in some way than make some different lifestyle choices. Others choose this route because they want quick results – and really, that is completely understandable. You see, most women really start to notice the physical signs of age when they reach the pre menopausal stage of their lives. This can actually occur when you are still in your late twenties, though it tends to manifest more sometime between your mid thirties and your mid forties. That is when the average woman starts to experiencing the fluctuating hormone levels which lead to menopause. That flux leads to quite a lot of other things as well, and for a lot of women, they can come as a shock. Even though menopause is inevitable, it hits some of us like a ton of bricks. As well, it is just a fact that some women are more aware of society’s expectations of older women than others; or, more rather, they care about those expectations more. Because they want quick results, they rely on short term anti aging methods. However, even if you get a face lift, at some point within the next few years, nature is still going to take its course and you are going to have to go back for more work. The same goes for eye lifts, tummy tucks, and injections – especially Botox and collagen injections. As Murad Resurgence also counsels us, when hormonal aging starts to manifest itself, one of the results is a break down of the collagen in our skin. No matter how many collagen injections a woman gets, it is still going to continue to break down, and she will keep needing more. The point is, the best way to take control of aging is to take preventative measures and to look for long term remedies. As with anything long term, you have to work for it, you have to commit – but if you want to keep looking as young outside as you feel inside, then that determination is well worth it. First of all, you cannot just concern yourself with your skin – or rather, you cannot just focus on products designed to help your skin. You see, there are a lot of outside forces that can make lines and wrinkles appear, that can cause your skin to sag and have a rough texture. For example, smoking cigarettes can make you look old long before your time. The nicotine sucks the moisture right out of your skin. This can lead to a rough, leathery, dry complexion – and who wants that? Alcohol does the same thing – in addition to filling you up with empty calories, which can greatly add to hormonal and menopausal weight gain. Fortunately, Resurgence can help with that. Among other things, the products in its three step line are designed to restore to your skin the essential hydration necessary to keep it looking youthful, radiant, and healthy. The added bonus is that committing to a comprehensive, long term anti aging skin care regimen ensures that you will also have long term results. You will not have to fight back the signs of aging because once you start using the Resurgence line, you will be reducing the signs of age you already have and preventing the appearance of new lines and wrinkles. Furthermore, because you are keeping your skin healthy and hydrated, it will remain smooth and supple for far, far longer. Like say, though, Murad Resurgence advocates more than just a good skin care line to battle the signs of aging. You have to have a game plan, you have to exercise anti aging methods from all angles. As a matter of fact, exercise is one of them. Staying fit can keep you feeling young and looking young. Not only will your muscles stay strong, supple, sinuous, and flexible, but regular exercise can also benefit your skin. A healthy, nutritious diet does the same thing, for both your body and your skin. Not only do you need to eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, but drinking plenty of water will also help keep your skin hydrated, which will in turn keep it healthy and young looking. Of course, there are some things that diet and exercise cannot do. For that, there is Resurgence. If the three step line does not take care of it, then the bonus offer frequently seen in the Resurgence TV offer certainly will. Among other things, it includes a product designed to take care of hormonal acne and one specially formulated to restore the tender, delicate skin around your eyes, while simultaneously reducing the wrinkles there. It also comes with an excellent sun screen, which is absolutely essential because UVA and UVB rays can severely damage your skin. Fortunately, the other products in the Resurgence line can take care of their effects as well. The sun screen just gives you preventative protection, while giving your skin a mineral infused radiance. When you combine an effective, in depth skin care line like the one offered by Resurgence with an active lifestyle and healthy eating choices, then you no longer have to worry. You can stay looking just as young as you still feel. And if you do have to worry about anything, well ... Resurgence can take care of the frown lines! + Looking Young and Feeling Great: Inside and Out
These days, if you are a woman, you carry a lot of expectations on your shoulders, especially
after you reach a certain age. Daily we are assaulted with billboards, magazines, movies, television shows, and commercials, all of which tells us that we have to look as young as possible if we want to be respected. It is important for us not to fall for that message. You see, we have to respect ourselves as women first. As Resurgence says, it is far better to take a realistic, full body approach to anti aging. There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to appear youthful and beautiful, especially if you do not feel old inside. However, you still have to take a realistic view of things. Aging happens; old age is not something from which we can escape. Rather than cutting, lifting, and injecting, and trying to deny the aging process, it is healthier, not to mention more long lasting, if we simply endeavor to take care of what we have. There are a number of ways to do that. You can adopt a good anti aging skin care regimen, such as the one offered by Resurgence. In so doing, however, you need to make sure that the products you choose will be effective and beneficial. The same goes for any other steps you take in the direction of anti aging. Believe it or not, making smart, healthy lifestyle choices will benefit you more than all the cosmetic surgery in the world – and you will both look and feel young for far, far longer. So, let’s look at a few of the things you can do to make sure that happens. We will also discuss what to look for in terms of skin care, and endeavor to pinpoint the perfect product line. Not so surprisingly, one of the best ways to remain looking and feeling young is to simply take care of yourself, health wise. This does not mean that you have to log in forty hours a week at the gym. Some people do, and if doing so strikes your fancy, then by all means, do so. However, where you work out is not important. Simply staying active is the real key. Even if you just try to walk around your neighborhood a few times of week, that is extremely helpful. Roller blade, ride your bike, take the dogs for a walk in the park – just get some type of regular exercise, even if you want to do so in the privacy on your own time. Such activity is a huge part of looking and feeling youthful, something which is even touted in the Resurgence Infomercial. The same can be said for maintaining a healthy, nutritious diet. Women, especially women in their pre menopausal and menopausal years, at the height of hormonal aging, have to be very careful about what they eat. Too many women think that drastically reducing their calorie intake is the key to staying trim, but in truth, eating too little is detrimental to your metabolism. When your metabolic rate decreases, so does your stamina, your energy, and your ability to exercise. You do not have to go to extremes; you absolutely should not. Just make sure to stay away from too many fatty foods and to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. Drinking water is helpful as well – not just for your body, but also for your skin. Lots of water keeps it moisturized – it will even keep your hair hydrated! Speaking of your skin, you still cannot underestimate the importance of a good skin care line. The best anti aging products will be good for your skin no matter how old you are. Murad resurgence falls into that category. In a great many ways, Resurgence acts as a preventative measure as well. Because women can actually start going through hormonal aging while they are still in their twenties and thirties. By beginning a good skin care regimen even before you start seeing any lines or wrinkles, you can actually prevent them from showing up – or at least prolonging them, not to mention the fact that they will be lighter and more mild when they do appear. Diet and exercise are not the only things about which you need to think, however. There are a variety of outside factors which can make you look and even feel older as well. The sun is just one of them. You have to be so careful about the sun, no matter what your age. Again, though, menopausal and pre menopausal women need to be exceptionally careful. You see, the sun’s increasingly intensive UVA and UVB rays have a number of detrimental effects. Primarily, it steals essential moisture from your skin. This can result in several things. It causes wrinkles and it also tends to give your skin a rough, leathery appearance. This is especially true if you spend a lot of time in the sun, getting burned and then peeling. You always need to worry about your skin’s moisture barrier, especially if you do spend a lot of time outdoors. Not only that, but you should always protect your skin from the sun’s rays. Resurgence can help you do this as well, in a couple of different ways. For starters, the first step in the line is designed to gently eliminate your skin’s impurities, all while protecting your skin’s moisture barrier. The Renewing Cleansing Cream also works to exfoliate your skin, which makes for a wonderfully supple, youthful texture. Secondly, there is a product in the Glow Bonus Pack, which you may be familiar with via the Resurgence TV offer. Within that pack, you get the Sheer Lustre Day Moisture SPF 15, which not only protects you from the sun, but also provides you with a literally radiant complexion, thanks to a blend of illuminating minerals. Smoking and drinking alcohol can have extremely disastrous effects on your skin as well. Large quantities of nicotine and alcohol not only make you age, but they also exacerbate the natural signs of aging. They can increase the breakdown of collagen, leaving your skin sagging and slack toned. They, too, can cause a rough complexion and leather texture, because both substances play a part in stealing the hydration your skin needs to thrive. Again, Murad Resurgence can battle these effects – and many others – in a number of ways. Steps two and three in the line, the Age Diffusing Serum and the Age Balancing Night Cream, are particularly effective in terms of these signs of aging. The former, for example, makes your skin firmer and more supple, and even minimizes the appearance of wrinkles. The latter works to rejuvenate your skin; it, too, adds to the suppleness of your skin, keeps it hydrated, and even makes your pores appear smaller! + Environmental Aging: Spot It and Stop It
It has recently become clear that the very sun which has nurtured us for millennia is now a potentially damaging figure in our lives. In the scorching summers we have seen in recent years, all you had to do was be out in the sun for an hour, and you could suffer a burn of enormous proportions. Once upon a time, this was just an extremely painful nuisance. We used to burn, peel, repeat, and finally tan as we spent happy days outside during the summer vacations of our youths. The idea that those were bad things was just a theory for a very long time, but now there can be no denying the fact that the sun’s UVA and UVB rays can be very dangerous. It has the potential to cause skin cancer. It is also entirely capable of damaging your skin to an extent that you look old even when you are not. Instead of only having to deal with natural, hormonal aging, we also now have to deal with environmental aging. Hormonal aging, as described in the Resurgence Infomercial,happens to all of us. It can start early – while you are still in your twenties, even. Environmental aging can speed up the physical signs of that process quite easily as well. But do not misunderstand: the sun’s rays are not the only factors involve. You need to be wary of a lot of different things. Let’s take a look at those – and also the kinds of things you can do to combat all of them. We will also discuss how Resurgence can help you protect yourself against all types of aging. First, we need to consider some of the aspects of aging causing by UVA and UVB rays. Hyper pigmentation is one of the main signs. If you are fair, your skin shows this more readily. Among other things, hyper pigmentation can manifest as age spots. Sun damage does the same thing. Caused by exposure to the sun and the radiation caused by its UVA and UVB rays, sun damage specifically results in photoaging. This is just a fancy way of explaining why prolonged exposure to the sun can cause your skin to sag. It can actually weaken your skin’s collagen and elastin. Given the fact that both these essentials begin to break down during the process of hormonal aging, especially in pre menopausal women, you can hardly afford for your skin to lose any more of its strength. For a long time, repairing and fortifying damaged collagen seemed like an unreachable goal. Even collagen injections do not work to do that, even though that is what they are supposed to do. Besides, most people cannot exactly afford them – or any other cosmetic procedures, for that matter. Heck, no one really needs them. If you want to stay looking as young as you feel, it is simplicity in itself. It is so easy – it just takes a little dedication. For instance, you need to adopt a good, comprehensive anti aging skin care regimen. You have to make good lifestyle choices as well. Most of all, you simply have to be good to you: do the right things for your body, love it and nurture it and make it the best it can be, and your body will reward you. That is really the Resurgence philosophy: take care of yourself, embrace your age, and love who and what you are. After all, improvement and nurturing can only be beneficial – and your body will thank you for it. Now, without a doubt, skin care is important. Just as you want to keep your mind sharp as you get older, why should you not keep your skin in the best condition possible as well? Most women know the value of things like lotion and night cream. They know about choosing good shampoos and conditioners. You use the best tooth paste to keep your teeth strong. You drink milk to make sure you have enough calcium. You do all these things to keep yourself in good condition. Well, your skin is an organ, and organs are important. Ergo, protecting your skin is vital. Besides, it is a visual indicator of how old you look – but not how old you are. So what makes good skin care? And where can you find it? Well, first of all, you need something that will get rid of impurities. You need something that will get rid of the skin cell build up which makes your complexion look dull. You will get something that protects your skin’s moisture barrier, so it will stay healthy, hydrated, and radiant. Good news: Murad Resurgence has that, in the Renewing Cleansing Cream. It is the first step in a three step line, designed to protect your skin in every possible way. How comprehensive is this line? Well, for starters, when you take advantage of the Resurgence TV offer, you can get a fantastic SPF 15 sun screen. Not only will it protect you from the sun’s damaging rays, it will also make you shimmer and shine, thanks to a specially blended mixture of luminescent minerals. No doubt, Resurgence has thought of everything. You also need something to combat the most common effects of all types of aging: losing the collagen in and elasticity of your skin and taking care of the wrinkles, bags, and sags those losses cause. Murad Resurgence about-resurgence-products takes care of that as well, with the Age Diffusing Serum. This is the treating step in the Resurgence line, designed to make your skin firmer and reduce the appearance of moderate to deep wrinkles. Because everything from the sun to cigarette smoke to too many cocktails can lead to dry skin – which in turn leads to a dull appearance and rough texture – moisturizing is also an important part of any anti aging skin care plan. Resurgence covers that too, through the Age Balancing Night Cream. This works as you sleep to replace the moisture your skin has lost. That leads to a faster rate of cell turnover, and that leads to a firm, supple, youthful, and radiant complexion. Your skin will be as smooth as a dream. |
