Supercharge Your Morning Skin Care Routine With These Powerful Antioxidant ProductsFree radical who? |
"Don't forget to slather on your antioxidants!" is advice that's on par with "Make sure you eat all your veggies!" and "Wear sunscreen!" Or at least it should be.
Antioxidants — which come from many sources — play an essential role in anyone's skin care regimen, no matter their age, gender or skin type. Consider them a beastly defense against free radicals, which can wreak havoc on your skin and lead to premature signs of aging, including fine lines, sunspots, laxity and uneven texture. After rinsing your face in the morning, apply your favorite toner followed by a cream or serum that's rich in antioxidants. (You can certainly apply antioxidants at night, but free radical damage — aka oxidation — is caused by pollutants and UV rays.) Follow up your antioxidant cream or serum with a dollop of sunscreen and your skin will seriously thank you.
