Japanese Skin Care Ingredients That Make Women Ageless
For many years, the special ingredient used in Japanese skin care
unique remained a secret kept from the rest of the world; but not
any more because that ingredient has recently been discovered by
westerners. Japanese women are known to age gracefully due to their
life style, diet and this wonderful ingredient.
Phytessence Wakame
The name of this secret ingredient is Phytessence Wakame; this is a
unique sea kelp that had remained a well guarded secret to the
Japanese women ageless beauty for years. It helps to make the skin
soft, smooth and young looking.
Its major function is to inhibit the activity of a harmful enzyme
called hyaluronidase; this enzyme breaks down hyaluronic acid in the
body. Hyaluronic acid is a vital component of the skin that promotes
tissue repair. If the enzyme breaks down hyaluronic acid; the
collagen and elastic fibers lose their 'glue'. Thus leading to the
formation of dark circles around the eyes and loss of youthful
appearance.
Phytessence Wakame is a potent antioxidant highly regarded in the
Japanese skin care industry for its ability to keep the skin
youthful. It is also proven to increase the elasticity of the skin;
it heals irritated and dry skin.
Studies also show that Wakame contains 15 times more calcium than
milk; it also contains other important minerals such as sodium,
iron, potassium and calcium which all help to balance the skin's
moisture level, and keep it looking firm and healthy. Its high
content of vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6 and B12 helps to sooth
inflammation of the skin.
It is proven that Wakame contains sulfated polyfucose, a potent
ingredient that helps to protect the skin against damage from UV
rays and other environmental pollutions.
You may be surprised to know that it is not easy to find products
that contain this unique ingredient; only a few companies use it in
their products. one company I know that use it in all its skincare
products is in New Zealand; sells its products on the internet and
ships them worldwide. You can find out about this company that has
