Protect your skin from negative environmental impacts. External factors such as a hectic lifestyle, UV light or stress cause up to 80% of premature skin ageing. Your skin is constantly exposed to harmful free radicals which accelerate the ageing of cells, cause loss of collagen and elastin in your skin, create wrinkles and age spots. Antioxidants can combat all of these effects and significantly protect your skin from external stress by counteracting the impact of free radicals as well as oxidative stress.
This group of organic molecules includes vitamin C, E, retinol, beta-carotene, zinc, selenium, coenzyme Q10 and many other beneficial ingredients. So what can they do for your skin?
Antioxidants neutralise the harmful impact of free radicals, they create a protective barrier and prevent unwanted skin ageing.
Natural antioxidants are substances commonly found in your body, but only in small amounts. If you want your skin to be healthy and wrinkle-free, you need to supply them on a regular basis by using the right skin care with antioxidants.
Focus mainly on antioxidant cosmetics which contain a complex of effective antioxidants as well as other beneficial ingredients that prevent skin ageing. Even your night skin care and day creams should come with antioxidants. And if you want a really substantial rejuvenating effect, try a regenerating face mask or serum with antioxidants.
If you’re planning to spend some time in the sun, use a protective sunscreen with antioxidants as well as a moisturising after-sun cream with antioxidants and other nourishing and soothing ingredients. We also recommend trying antioxidant hair care that prevents your hair from dehydration and colour fading in the summer while combatting the negative impacts of cold weather during the winter months.
notino.ie offers an exceptionally large selection of serums, masks and moisturisers with antioxidants. Slow down the process of skin ageing and treat yourself to a youth elixir that keeps your skin beautiful, free of wrinkles and hyperpigmentation.
