It's depressing. Not only does your face need firming up, but the lotions and creams you hope will work are obviously not making much difference.
Well I would say two things about that.
One, remember that beauty IS skin deep.
Your qualities and character count for a lot more to the people who know you best (and see you most). How you look is important for your own self-esteem, and it helps if you look young and beautiful when you are mixing with people in crowded offices or out in parks. But it is only important to a certain extent. Who you are is more important in the long run than how you look.
But having said that, I'd say, second, it is not encouraging to look in the mirror and see those lines, wrinkles and sags.
And it does not help to find yourself with areas of your face dry and others moist -- an embarrassing condition called combination skin.
Let's think about the sagging areas of your face.
The best skin firming for the face needs to do three things which I want to list here for you. If you can find a lotion or a cream that will do two, or even all three, of these things then you have struck gold. So let me explain why skin needs to be cared for at your age, and then you will know the ingredients you need in a skin firming cream to take care of how you look on the outside.
First, the best skin firming for faces will include gentle moisturizing agents extracted carefully from natural products.
Avocado and macadamia oils, for instance, have natural compounds in them that will take the oils into the layers of your skin and hydrate areas that are dry.
Not all oils will do this. Mineral oils, for instance, stay on the he surface, clog pores and make you dependent -- when you stop using them you will find the dry areas of your face are worse than ever.
As you research about moisturizing agents you will learn about the damaging affect that these mineral oils can have. I would never recommend them.
Another factor to look for in the best skin firming products for your face would include something to make the skin firm again. (We ARE talking about sagging after all!)
One of the natural compounds that researchers are excited about at the moment is a substance called phytessence wakame. It is better known in Japan because it comes from a special sea weed harvested exclusively on the shores of Japan. And there is a lot of research supporting what women are learning by using creams that use this ingredient -- it is effective.
So look for a skin firming product that includes it. (As a bonus, it has an easy name to remember!)
Sagging skin is almost always dry skin.
Cynergy TK™ is a rather special compound that good skin care products are increasingly turning to. I've seen reports that have found an improvement in skin moisture retention of almost 15 percent over a three week period. So that is something you can test yourself. Find some of the best skin firming products that have this, use it for a month, and see if you can see the difference. Many women have.
