Protect Yourself from Free Radical Damage Using a Natural Skin Care Balm

by Valentina Bellocchio

Is there anything better than a warm, sunny day at the beach? We all love the excitement of a day enjoying the water. We pack a cooler and get the umbrella. We arrive early in the morning to park ourselves on a prime spot of real estate close to the water just so we can enjoy the breeze and rays. While most of us do use sunscreen to prevent burns, we don't always apply enough to completely prevent damage. Everyone can use a second line of defense to help fight the signs of sun damage and photoaging.

Tan skin is at a premium in the warmer months. What is it about dark skin that makes people feel better about themselves? Women (and men too) spend their winters frequenting tanning salons to try and maintain the look all year round. While most people do know that excessive exposure to UV rays is hazardous to their skin, most do not know exactly how the damage changes their skin.

Photoaging is the term that details damage to the skin caused by chronic exposure to sunlight. Exposure to ultraviolet light is the basis for almost all of the signs of early skin aging. Skin afflictions ranging from sun damage like sun burn to larger problems like skin cancer are unmistakably tied to sun damage.

Natural Protection from UV Radiation

UV rays affect the production of collagen and elastin, throwing off the delicate balance needed to keep skin healthy and strong. The principle reason why people finally address photoaging is because it makes an individual appear older than his or her chronologic age. When skin is damaged by the sun, you might search for a treatment for photoaging, sensitive skin and fine lines.

The effects of UV radiation on the skin are connected to the intensity and length of UV exposure and accrued through time. The damage builds and builds until it finally becomes a problem. People should be troubled because if not treated properly, sun damage can lead to skin cancers like basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.

Using sun protection is very important for your overall health. If you take a few minutes everyday to put on sunscreen, can avoid years of a more intense skin treatment later on down the road. The catch is sunscreen alone is not always sufficient. Skin exposed to excessive sunlight should be renewed in order to clear out the damage inflicted by UV rays.

Now, how can people effectively rejuvenate skin and prevent the effects of photoaging and sun damage? There are natural sun filters produced by certain algae and plankton. These organisms thrive in shallow water where they are exposed to incessant UV radiation. They then generate the strongest UV-absorbing substances in nature which is gathered and used in natural skin care products to help protect and remodel human skin. These new sun filters embodied in a line of natural skin care balms help the skin adjust to the stress of daily UV exposure and halt free radical damage.

The aforementioned balms fight the effects of photoaging by rejuvenating collagen and elastin levels in the skin. When applied consistently, the balm will fuse with your skin cells and:

* restore the regenerative capability of sun burned skin cells.

* promote fibroblast formulation. Fibroblasts evolution gives rise to new collagen and elastin fibers which are the most vital of all skin elements.

* limit oxidative damage and free radical development, protecting healthy cells near deep sun damage.

* Improve the skin's ability to heal from the effects of perilous UV rays and traumas caused by other environmental hazards using powerful antioxidants.

* Boosts the development of the water holding carbohydrate molecules within the skin, making the skin stronger and healthier.

* Improves the capability of skin to secrete antimicrobials and kill microbes.
