Why do you need an anti wrinkle pillow?

Monday, September 29th, 2008

What can an anti wrinkle pillow do for you? Well, one was designed by a plastic surgeon to keep the eye and orbital are ?open? while you are sleeping. It was originally intended for patients recovering from cosmetic or reconstructive surgery.

The anti wrinkle pillow was originally designed using the principles of ergonomics, a scientific discipline concerned with designing the workplace according to human needs. If followed correctly, ergonomic designs prevent repetitive motion injuries in the work place that can lead to permanent disabilities.

Applying this discipline to the anti-aging crowd is a rather new idea. The surgeon that came up with the anti wrinkle pillow, also has a complete line of products for use around the eyes.

They seem like good products, but are quite expensive. One product is for lightening dark circles and costs $75 for .17 ounces. Another is for moisturizing and firming. It costs $45 for .33 ounces. A complete list of the ingredients and the ratio of active ingredients is unavailable at the good doctor?s website.

But, since they were created by a doctor, I?m sure they contain only safe, hypo-allergenic ingredients. Whether or not the amount of active ingredients is enough to be effective is something that I could not judge.

I can however compare the prices to an effective product that I know of, which targets dark circles, as well as moisturizing, firming and reducing bags. That product was created by a health supplement manufacturer that I have come to know and trust.

So, I know there are no harmful or irritating ingredients in the bottle. I also know that the active compounds it contains compose more than 50% of the gel. Some lotions are only 1% active compounds; the other 99% is either filler or a carrier system.

For $35.45 I get .5 ounces of the eye gel that does everything the two products combined are supposed to do at a total cost of $120. The doctor may have based her prices on what designers and cosmetic companies are charging. And, that?s a competitive price from that standpoint.

But, while good ingredients are expensive, companies can provide them at a lower price, if they choose to do so. They would have to give up television and magazine advertisements. They would have to rely on the loyalty of their customers and ?word of mouth? advertising. That?s not likely to happen, so they continue to keep their prices high.

The anti wrinkle pillow seems like a pretty good idea. Although, I?m not sure how comfortable it would be. There are similar designs on the market.
The thing is that morning pressure wrinkles are not permanent. Is it really necessary to pay $58 for an anti wrinkle pillow, so that you?ll look better first thing in the morning? I guess that depends on the individual.

Stop losing money on ineffective skin care anti wrinkle creams, get the facts

Sunday, September 28th, 2008

You are never too young or too old for a skin care anti wrinkle cream. Well, maybe if you are still a youngster, but once you become a teenager, there is a lot of damage going on. If you can prevent it, you will look better for the rest of your life.

But, if you didn?t start early, new exciting innovations make it possible to undo the damage that you have allowed to happen. An effective skin care anti wrinkle cream should be your first line of defense against the elements that cause the face and body to look older.

It should support your body?s ability to repair tissue damage and increase skin-cell production. You just have to look for the right ingredients.

There are hundreds of products out there just crying for your attention, so let?s make it simple. A high priced skin care anti wrinkle cream that you see in television and magazine advertisements will not represent a good value.

In order to be profitable, those companies that advertise heavily reduce the amount of effective ingredients and use instead paraffin waxes and fillers. You may look better for a little while. You may end up with immediate irritation, especially around the eyes. But, if you continue to use a skin care anti wrinkle cream like that, you will end up with dryer, more easily damaged skin, because the natural oils that protect you will be stripped away.

On the other hand, a skin care anti wrinkle cream may be quite effective and pleasant, if it contains the right compounds in the appropriate amounts. Instead of being highly advertised, it will be sold direct from the manufacturer. Otherwise it would be unaffordable to the average consumer.

Below, we have listed and described some of the latest compounds that have proven effectiveness. So, when you go shopping for a skin care anti wrinkle cream, you will know what to look for.

Haloxy is a patented agent that actually has the special task of dealing with those nasty dark circles that appear around your eyes. This chemical reduces the by products of hemoglobin breakdown in your skin and helps to provide enzymes that fade the red and blue pigmentation that make the dark circles.

One of the most exciting natural approaches still in play after all this time would have to be Babassu palm oil. It has been used for centuries in the Amazon region of Brazil to soothe, heal sunburns, protect from the sun and to relieve itching and irritation.

Recent clinical research has shown that in the wax form used in skin care anti wrinkle cream it creates a light invisible barrier that keeps out dirt and grime, while keeping moisture in. It does this without clogging the pores as older paraffin waxes did. It even causes light to refract, so that while your body is repairing years old damage, you?ll look better right away.

Nature has provided us with a number of unique antioxidants. Oxygen is not just a substance we breathe on our planet. It also serves as a corrosive agent that breaks many solids down. It is powerful enough to rust metal, so you can imagine the effect that it has on the skin.

COQ10, vitamin E, active Manuka Honey and Wakame (a variety of kelp) are some of the most powerful antioxidants know to man. In the proper form, they will destroy free radicals produced after exposure to sun, air and pollutants. So, they protect, heal and nourish the cellular structure of your skin?s layers. Only the best skin care anti wrinkle cream will contain them.
