Age spots, or extra facial pigmentation, can make you look older. Age spots usually appear as a form of brown patches on the skin surface, or uneven tone and texture. This facial pigmentation can highly affect the way you look and age you by up to 15 years! The good news is that you can do something about age spots and sun damage with Dead Sea skincare products.
Although more common to appear at old age, age spots can actually appear much before you consider yourself old. In fact, one of the main reasons for early age spots is too much sun exposure. The skin's normal reaction to sun rays is tanning, a form of pigmentation that creates a darker skin tone. Yet too much sun exposure and tanning can speed up the appearance of age spots. Age spots can look very different from one person to another, or even from one period of time to another, appearing as small as freckles, or through patches of uneven skin tone to actual age spots, which look like small dark brown areas, showing up mostly on the face, hands and chest.
Dead Sea Mineral Treatment for Age Spots
Dead Sea minerals are packed with important nutrients that replenish the skin and keep it healthier over time. Like most things, the best treatment for age spots starts by preventing them in the first place by avoiding excess tanning, and staying out of the sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. A regular skincare routine is also very important for preventing and diminishing the appearance of age spots, including daily moisturizer with SPF to protect the skin from the sunlight.
Jericho Dead Sea mineral products are ideal for treating age spots, thanks to the unique balances of Dead Sea minerals, vitamins and natural oils. Another important step in your skincare routine for preventing age spots is exfoliating the skin on a weekly basis. This will help your skin to slough off dead skin cells and produce new ones. Along with a deep rich night moisturizer, exfoliation will help your skin maintain a healthy glow.
When choosing a skin care product for preventing age spots, look for three key ingredients: Vitamin C, Collagen and Retinol (not all three ingredients have to appear in the same one product). You want your skin to be firm, smooth and nourished in order to diminish the appearance of age spots; these are all the natural, healthy components which will help you achieve just that.
