Antioxidants in Skincare: Why They are Important and How They Work

By Louisa Agate, LMA

 

Trying to achieve healthy beautiful skin? If the answer is yes, then you should turn to antioxidants. Antioxidants help prevent free radical damage and do several things to keep your skin healthy: they correct the signs of aging, prevent sunburn, help the skin to repair itself, brighten skin tone, and may even help prevent skin cancer. Here is a list of antioxidants that you should look for in choosing a skincare line for healthy skin for yourself.

 

Retinol (vitamin A): Retinoids and Vitamin A have stood the test of time because its small molecular structure penetrates deep into the skin to stimulate collagen and skin remodeling. It smoothes fine lines, improves skin texture, and makes your skin look younger.
