4 Important Ingredients in Natural Wrinkle Creams

A natural wrinkle cream containing antioxidants, proteins, plant extracts and nourishing oils could be exactly what you need to improve your skin’s health and appearance.  Here’s a look at the benefits of specific ingredients.
Grape Seed Oil
Grape seed oil can be used for cooking.  Some chefs like it because of its unique “filming” ability.  It forms a film over the pan and the vegetables being cooked.  This allows them to use less oil.
When applied to the skin, the film acts to hold moisture in.  The benefits of use may include reduced wrinkles, scars and stretch marks.  It can help improve circulation.  Because of its antioxidant activity, it protects against free radical damage (one of the causes of cellular aging) and it may reduce your risk of skin cancer.
You can purchase grape seed oil at gourmet food stores and use it “as is”.  Or, you could look for a natural wrinkle cream that contains it.  It may be particularly beneficial for repairing damage around the eyes.
Wakame Kelp Extracts
Wakame is one of the most nutrient-rich varieties of kelp.  Kelp is simply another name for seaweed.  It is sold in health food stores around the world.  The extracts must be properly prepared in order to be used on the skin.
The minerals in wakame are necessary for balancing the skin’s moisture content.  The extracts have antioxidant activity and contain B vitamins that help to provide protection from sun damage, another cause of wrinkles.
