How your car makes you look older
November 17th, 2008
Studies have proven that pollution may contribute to the appearance of wrinkles on our skin. Exhaust from cars, smoke, industrial pollution, and random chemicals dump all kinds of free radicals into the environment that we breath and that rest on our skin.
Free radicals accelerate aging by breaking down collagen in the skin. Without enough collagen skin will sag, wrinkles will form, and discoloration will occur.
To counteract the effect of free radicals, eat foods high in antioxidants (vitamins C and E) and use skin care products that contain antioxidants like MD Formulations Moisture Defense Antioxidant Lotion.
