A good anti aging hand cream is one that contains all the active natural ingredients that your skin needs to look and feel youthful. Our hands are constantly in use and they are always on display. Our hands are subjected to a wide range of conditions such as when we are doing the laundry, washing the dishes, busying ourselves in the garden, and so on. They are always susceptible to sun damage and this leads to wrinkles and sun spots which are also known as age spots or liver spots. In fact, sun spots occur most often on the face and the hands. When you decide to purchase a hand cream it is vital to understand what ingredients are necessary and beneficial for the health of your skin as well as those ingredients that you should most definitely avoid. Skincare products are abundantly available as there has been much advancement in the industry. Unfortunately with this advancement has come an increase in the number of businesses operating within the field and therefore there is greater competition among them. They spend copious amounts of the financial resources on advertising and women the world over buy into the packaging and promotion that these companies use to sell their products. But there is vital information that they do not want their consumers to know. For instance the manufacturers of many different anti aging hand creams as well as other skincare products on the market do not want you to know that many of their products contain chemicals that are often used in other processes and these are not only harsh on the skin but also proven to be dangerous to your health. They have many adverse side effects and are known to result in irritation and allergic reactions as well as cancer. It is understandable that they do not want this information to be common knowledge because it will obviously result in fewer sales and therefore less profit. Among the different ingredients contained in many of the world's most popular and leading skincare products is acrylamide. This is often to be found in face creams as well as in hand creams and studies have concluded that this might cause breast cancer. Certain alcohols such as ethanol, methanol, benzyl alcohol, and ethyl alcohol are all proven to result in dry and irritated skin. Alcohols are known to remove the natural acid layer in your skin which means that you become more susceptible to bacteria and viruses. What is more alarming is that they might even promote the development of age spots and premature aging, the very things the product is supposed to counter. Another very extensively used component in skincare products is dioxane which is a synthetic that is obtained from coconuts. It has high concentrations and is very easily absorbed into the skin. Alarmingly it is known to cause cancer as well as being a toxicant for the kidneys and respiratory system among others! Beware of products which display the term ‘fragrance' on their labels. There are more than 4000 possible ingredients that are used and are known to be either toxic or cancer causing and yet are common in many leading skincare products. Toluene (also known as benzoic and benzyl) is obtained from either petroleum or coal tar and is often part of synthetic fragrances. It can lead to anemia, lower blood cell count, liver or kidney damage, and more. These are merely some of the common ingredients found in many anti aging hand cream and other skincare products. All have potentially serious side effects. When choosing your hand cream or other skincare product always choose one that contains entirely natural ingredients. Beware of those that claim to contain natural ingredients but that do not. Choose to purchase your skincare products from a reliable source and have peace of mind knowing that you are doing the best for your skin without endangering your health.
