Skin care cream ingredients that really work are hard to find.  Why not go the all-natural route?  A skin care moisturizer cream that contains nothing harmful will obviously be better for your skin's health and improve your appearance, as well.  Let me tell you about some of today's ingredients that really work.

It's never too early to worry about wrinkles.  They say that most of the damage that causes wrinkles is done before we reach the age of twenty.  That's not to say that we cannot undo some of the damage with the right skin care cream.  It is said simply to encourage those of you who are younger to start taking better care now, so you'll look better later.

4 Ingredients to AVOID

Out of the hundreds of products on the market there are only a few that are effective.  In order for a skin care moisturizer cream to be effective, it must not contain:

-alcohol,

-paraffin wax,

-mineral oil,

-petroleum jelly or petrolatum. 

Those ingredients will strip your natural oils and so become self defeating.

There are several steps you should take for moisturizing.  Let's start with a skin care cream for bedtime.

While you sleep, your bodily systems are very active.  They go about repairing damage done during the day, healing and replacing dead cells with new ones.  So, sleep is very important for your skin and your overall health and well-being.  A skin care moisturizer cream for bedtime should contain nothing irritating or it will disrupt your sleep.

6 Most Beneficial Ingredients  for Nighttime Care

The best choices for nighttime skin care cream include:

- Manuka Honey for it's healing effects,

-avocado oil for it's hydrating effects,

-COQ10 and vitamin E because they are antioxidants that destroy free radicals that  damage tissue,

-Shea butter because it is naturally moisturizing and

-light Babassu wax because it softens and soothes.

Day Care Essential Ingredients

During the day, you also need a skin care moisturizer cream.  One that contains similar ingredients to those mentioned above, but is a little lighter and not as waxy.  To prevent or undo wrinkling, there is a new skin care cream called Cynergy TK.  It contains protein that can be used by the body to create new collagen, elastin and skin-cells.

Hydrating Mask

Twice a month, you should use a deep hydrating mask instead of your nighttime skin care cream.  The newest skin care moisturizer cream of this type is not green and does not harden.  You don't have to scrub it off.  It is gradually absorbed by the pores over the course of  20 or 30 minutes, so all you need do is wipe of any excess and go on to bed.

The best skin care cream mask contains most of the ingredients mentioned above, but it also contains a special nutrient called Rigin.  In clinical trials, it has been shown to improve firmness and elasticity around the face and neck by as much as 40% and an increase in hydration by 24%.

Over all, the best products contain a large number of active ingredients.  The typical product contains lots of fillers and only a trace of anything that could actually be effective.  Take the time to do your research before you buy a skin care cream and you'll be happier with the results.
