Several factors contribute to an even complexion, including the amount of collagen and elastin present in the skin. Collagen and elastin are the proteins responsible for skin elasticity, tone, and texture, and are affected by diet, age, hormones, skin products, cosmetic treatments, and overall health. In order to achieve smooth skin and a radiant complexion, it is important to understand how these factors affect one another. The first step you can take to improve your skin texture is to identify the root causes of less-than-perfect skin.

Diet: Did you know that many vitamins and minerals are essential for your body to make collagen and elastin. It is now impossible to get optimal amounts of vitamins and minerals from our food alone, even if it is organic. The US Department of Agriculture did a study a few years ago and compared the vitamin and mineral content of our food today with the food 50 years ago. There was up to a 70% reduction of vitamins and minerals in our food today. The best way to find out if you are deficient is to get tested.

Skin Products: Skin Products, even ones from Dermatologists and Plastic Surgery offices, may contain harmful chemicals and preservatives that are dangerous. Parabens are a very common preservative that has been linked to breast cancer. Other chemicals in skin care products can harm your liver and lymphatic system. Over 90% of mascara on the market has mercury in it!

Age also plays a role in the formation of wrinkles, age spots, blotchiness, and rough skin texture. Wrinkles, fine lines, and an uneven skin complexion all develop as a part of the natural aging process. Our skin renewed itself every 4 weeks when we were in our youth but slowed significantly as early as our late 20’s. Fortunately, it is possible to reduce the outward signs of aging by following a careful regimen of skin care and protection.
