The Lipstick Cases

There is really nothing like a best skin care product. There really can’t be anything like ‘The best natural skin care product’, because skin care products work differently for different people (based on the skin type to some extent). A product that is the ‘best natural skin care product’ for one person might end up being the worst for another person. So, a more logical question to ask would be ‘What is the best skin care product for my type of skin?’. However, this still is not completely logical. We tend to segregate people into 4 groups based on their skin types – i.e. dry skin, oily skin, normal skin and sensitive skin. However, this classification is just too broad to be used definitively in determining the best skin care product. We can say ‘best natural skin care product for a dry skin’ or ‘best natural skin care product for an oily skin’ are better statements than just ‘best skincare product’. But really, that is what it is – ‘better’; still not accurate.  Read more...

Ascorbic acid is often regarded as a wrinkle fighter or an anti-aging agent. The main objective of ‘Vitamin C skin care’, in scientific terms, is to increase the synthesis of collagen (a structural protein that is found in skin). The additional benefit of ‘Vitamin C skin care’ is related to its capability of countering free radicals which cause damage to the skin.

Vitamin C skin care, however, faces a major challenge today. This is related to the oxidation tendency of Vitamin C skin care products. On coming in contact with any oxidizing agent (e.g. air), the Vitamin C in the Vitamin C skin care products, gets oxidized; thus making the Vitamin C skin care product useless (in fact counter-effective). The oxidized Ascorbic acid imparts a yellowish-brown color to the Vitamin C skin care product. This is something that you need to check before buying a Ascorbic acid skin care product. Even after you buy a Vitamin C skin care product, you need to store it properly and keep checking that it’s still good to use (i.e. it hasn’t attained a yellowish-brown texture).  Read more...
