We will all eventually get age spots, especially if we spent a lot of time in the sun without proper sun screen protection.
The telltale aging signs are these dark spots, also known as brown spots, or liver spots.
They usually appear on your skin when you reach age 50 and will progressively get worse unless treated.
These spots are caused by exposure to the sun during peak periods.
The melanin in our skin gets produced excessively and eventually they form these spots on our skin.
However even though the damage is already done, no use crying over spilt milk there are things you can do to reduce the effects of these spots and also get rid of the spots you already have.
If you are a younger person say late 20s early 30s you should try to prevent age spots from forming by using proper skin care products.
The best prevention is to wear proper sunscreen.
Whenever you go outdoors you should apply sunscreen to your face, hands and all the areas exposed to direct sunlight.
Most times we forget and that is why we experience these spots on our hands and face especially.
It is also important to eat nutritious meals consisting of foods rich in essential minerals and vitamins.
This will help keep our skin in good condition.
Eating lots of fruits and green leafy vegetables, lots of fish and nuts will help too as they will provide our bodies with omega3 fatty acids.
Taking care of the skin on the outside by proper cleansing, moisturizing and exfoliating as this will help keep it rejuvenated and help to get rid of the dead skin and regenerate new skin cells.
These are all important to eliminate age spots.
Look for a line of skin care products that contain a combination of natural ingredients that have the ability to boost your body's collagen and elastin production.
Also instead of using those skin whitening substances that can cause further blemishes look for natural whitening substance that is natural and will naturally fade the age spots.
One special substance I use is known as Extrapone Nutgrass.
It has the ability to inhibit your body from producing too much melanin thereby lessening the chance of these spots taking over your skin.
Other natural healthy skin substances you should be aware of are Cynergy TK, COQ10, Phytessence Wakame and Natural Vitamin E.
These are powerful antioxidants that nourish the skin from the outside giving it a beautiful glow and making it smoother to the touch.
Stay away from harsh products containing chemical substances as they will cause negative changes to the tone and texture of your skin.
One particular whitening agent you should try to avoid is hydroquinone as it can make your skin worse.
Stick with natural ingredients as they are safer and will be more effective and will produce younger looking skin.
I know there are many different ways to try to eliminate age spots, more complete approach should include eating healthy, protecting your skin from the sun and using the right skin care products.
Follow these tips and you should have skin that is younger looking, smooth and age spot free.
