Los Angeles Skin Care
SECRETS THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW
Los Angeles Skin Care- Your skin is bad or could be better. You're unhappy. You live in the Greater Los Angeles Area. Is there a connection?
It may not be your entire fault. Los Angeles skin care is more difficult than you imagined.
LOS ANGELES SKIN CARE- IS SMOG THE BAD GUY?
Skin care in Los Angeles is a problem because of air pollution. You find yourself getting frequent Los Angeles skin care treatments because the air is filled with ozone. Ozone is the main component of our old L.A. friend, Smog.
Smog attacks your Los Angeles skin and quickly removes Vitamin E from your uppermost skin layer (called the stratum corneum) according to the unexpected results of a Feb 1997 University of California, Berkeley study.
How bad is the smog in Los Angeles? "...despite an average $5 Billion to $8 Billion spent to carry out regional air quality plans in recent decades, Los Angeles last summer again led the nation in smoggy days" according to the October 11, 2006 issue of the Los Angeles Times in the California Local News section.
VITAMIN E SKIN CARE
Vitamin E is an important component of healthy Los Angeles skin care because it acts as a protector against oxidation. Oxidation is a major agent causing the aging of your skin.
An example of oxidation is an apple turning brown when it is cut and exposed to the oxygen in the air. In about an hour the polluted air will start to destroy the flesh of the fruit.
Think of the apple's outer skin as your uppermost skin layer (statum corneum). Think of your skin as the flesh of the fruit.
Stop for a moment and imagine the effect. Do you see the age spots and the discoloration like with the browning apple?
Are you getting the oxidation picture? It's not a pretty one is it? Nope.
Los Angeles smog attacks your skin and removes Vitamin E. Vitamin E is your body's natural anti-oxidant. Vitamin E is found in some plant oils and in leafy green vegetables. It is a vital weapon in your Los Angeles skin care.
The smog ages your skin after the protective level of Vitamin E deoace is reduced. Aging is characterized by the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness, uneven skin tone and age spots.
Obviously, one result of the research was it validated the use of Vitamin E for good Los Angeles skin care.
