Choosing Antioxidant Skin Care Products

Stress has become a part of our lives. Pollution, refined foods, exposure to sunlight—they all impact how our skin looks and feels. Realistically, avoiding these things can be very hard. Fortunately, there’s an alternative to becoming a beauty hermit. Antioxidants can play a big part in protecting your skin. This is called preventative care, and one of the best lines for it is SkinCeuticals. “Antioxidants can be found in fresh fruits and veggies. Naturally, diet is a big part of skin care. A good diet can help you fight lines, wrinkles, and discolouration. For optimal results, you should reinforce this with a comprehensive preventative program. I have great faith in SkinCeuticals, and refer many of my clients to this line,” says aesthetic doctor Roz Kamani. Many studies and lab tests have repeatedly shown that antioxidants are very effective at neutralizing the chemical reactions generated when skin is exposed to various environmental stresses. This helps prevent signs of premature aging, fine lines, and discolouration. “SkinCeuticals has developed a wonderful menu of super-antioxidant formulas that can provide the most advanced protection from environmental damage,” says Dr. Kamani. “It’s important to use both a good daytime and night time serum. The formulas I like best are SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic or Phloretin and Resveratrol, which work with all skin types.”

1). C E Ferulic (AM) (For Anti-Aging Anti Oxidant)Buy C E Ferulic® antioxidant skin cream - 15% L-ascorbic acid, 1% alpha tocopherol (vitamin E), 0.5% Ferulic acid.

A daytime Vitamin C serum, this formula strengthens the skin’s natural protection from free radicals induced by environmental stressors such as UVA/UVB, infrared radiation (IRA), and pollution. In addition to the antioxidant protective benefits, C E Ferulic improves the signs of aging and photodamage, the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and the loss of firmness, while also brightening the skin’s complexion.

  • Provides advanced environmental protection by neutralizing damaging free radicals
  • Visible anti-aging benefits, such as the improvement of lines and wrinkles, loss of firmness, and a brighter complexion
  • Once absorbed, the vitamin C serum remains effective for at least 72 hours
  • Paraben-free and ideal for normal, dry, and sensitive skin types

2). Phloretin CF (AM) (For Anti Aging and Reducing Discoloration)Buy Phloretin, a broad-spectrum molecule with antioxidant properties

A powerful antioxidant face serum featuring a patented combination of 2% Phloretin, 10% pure Vitamin C (L-ascorbic Acid), and 0.5% Ferulic Acid, Phloretin CF works to neutralize free radicals induced by environmental stressors such as UVA/UVB and pollution, which may lead to visible signs of accelerated skin aging. Improve the appearance of discoloration, fine lines, and uneven skin tone.

  • Provides advanced environmental protection by neutralizing damaging free radicals
  • Helps reduce the appearance of discoloration to improve overall skin tone
  • Once absorbed, the Vitamin C serum remains effective for at least 72 hours
  • Paraben-free and ideal for normal, oily, combination, and aging skin types
  • Excellent complement to sunscreen for enhanced protection

Dr.Roz Kamani recommends this for younger skin and for those with pigment. “If you wear makeup every day, a good antioxidant serum could be incredibly beneficial to your skin. Make an appointment and tell us your skin concerns. We’ll help put together a high quality regiment that addresses your specific needs.”

3). Resveratrol BE Night Serum (PM)

(1% pure Resveratrol, 0.5% Baicalin, 1% Alpha Tocopherol) Resveratrol works against environmental effects on visible skin drying. With aging, the skin’s resilience in maintaining skin longevity wears down. Resveratrol reduces the visible effects of collagen breakdown by improving the skins’ radiance, elasticity, and density. Apply 1-2 pumps on a clean face at night. Put Resveratrol to work on your skin as you sleep.
