How aging affects your skin
Aging is a natural process and we should embrace our age, whatever it may be! As we age, the skin becomes slack, rough and fragile. It begins to sag, stretch, and become loose.These changes begin beneath the surface. Collagen and elastin decrease in production, causing the skin to lose its elasticity. Hyaluronic acid production also reduces, leaving the skin rough and dry. The appearance of wrinkles, age spots, freckles and pigmentation start to appear.
Taking good care of your skin and nourishing it with plant nutrients can help the skin to look healthier, younger, plump, elastic, and beautiful.
