Pollution-Fighting Skin Care Products

You may be the most hygienic person out there, but no matter what you do, we are all faced with invisible pollutants every time we step outside our doors. So, if we do our best to stay inside, we’ll be okay then, right? Wrong. At times, indoor air is even worse than outdoor air because of the microscopic particles it harbors.  If your skin is unprotected, you’ll find both the innermost and outermost layers damaged by the air around you.

However, there are steps you can take to protect your skin. You’ll find several anti-pollution products designed to fight dirty air and keep your skin glowing. We’ve listed some of the best products below.

VITAMIN C + E FERULIC ACID SERUM

Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and ferulic acid are some of the most powerful ingredients you can find to fight against dirty particles and sulphur dioxide, saving you from damage and skin aging. Ferulic acid, an ingredient that has more recently been discovered and put to use in the beauty industry because of its ability to fight pollution, is an antioxidant that naturally occurs in plants. Both Vitamins C and E are also antioxidants that protect the exposed layer of your skin from environmental pollution and inflammation.

An “antioxidant” is a substance that inhibits oxidation or oxidative stress. This stress disturbs your body’s ability to detoxify and repair and also causes wrinkles along with other premature aging symptoms. Oxidative stress happens when oxygen molecules break up into single atoms containing unpaired electrons referred to as free radicals. These free radicals search the body for other electrons with which they can pair, damaging cells along the way. When you consume and apply external products that contain antioxidants, your skin is better able to repair itself and fight off free radicals.  

Throughout the summer, try DermaCell C+ Anti-Aging Serum on your face and skin every day to help combat the aging effects of air pollution and encourage naturally produced protective collagen to maintain your skin’s elasticity and protective barrier.

HYALURONIC ACID 

This acid is one that is often used in natural skin products to nourish the skin; in fact, it occurs naturally in your skin and connective tissues already to keep it moist. Hyaluronic acid is so powerful that it can hold many times its weight in water, blocking out pollution.

One of the effects of aging is that your body produces less hyaluronic acid which leaves your skin exposed to dehydration and pollutants. By applying top-quality hyaluronic acid to your face, you can offset this process, but be sure to select paraben-free products that don’t have added fragrance or color dye. Rub some into your skin each morning before exposing yourself to polluted air.

GIVE YOUR SKIN THE PROTECTION IT NEEDS 

Now that you know your skin is constantly being exposed to pollutants that could very negatively affect it, you also know how important it is to keep your outer layer protected, nourished, and radiant through high-quality products designed to do this. As you choose what’s right for you, just make sure you’re using products that are natural, pollution-fighting, and without parabens, fragrances, or other harmful ingredients. Apply these products on a daily basis for the best results, keeping your skin youthful, glowing, and pollution-free!
