The Tango of Free Radicals, Oxygen and Antioxidants

Everywhere we look there’s antioxidant this and free radical that. But what do these terms really mean for you and your skin’s appearance? And how do they affect your skin’s health?

To truly understand the process of aging – and to stop the damage that free radicals can do to your skin in its tracks – you’ll need a quick (and easy, I promise) chemistry lesson.

The healthy cells in your body are made up of stable and balanced atoms. Stable atoms are happy atoms and they have an even number of electrons. These happy atoms dance around with other evenly balanced atoms, always in sync. They join forces with each other to become molecules. Molecules are the building blocks of our bodies’ cells. That’s right, every cell you have is chuck-full of molecules, and all of your body’s tissues are comprised of cells.

Enter our chemistry lesson’s villain (and cue the suspenseful music). Not all atoms have an even number of electrons. When an atom has an odd number of electrons it’s called a free radical. This high-energy, unruly atom has the kind of dance moves that don’t just clear the dance floor, they knock the other dancers on their butts. Free radicals bounce around, making the dance floor (and your skin) a hectic environment. They steal electrons from happy dancers, transforming the stable atoms into free radicals, increasing the chaos.

It’s a harmful cycle with serious implications for your skin’s health. All of this commotion damages cells and is believed to cause disease and accelerate the signs of aging.

Oxygen is good – except when it’s very very bad. Oxygen is everywhere and that’s a great thing because we need it to survive. But when an oxygen atom is the victim of one of these pillaging free radicals and loses an electron, it doesn’t just become an ordinary free radical. It becomes a super-charged free radical, called the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). When environmental stress levels are high – think sunbathing without SPF or strolling down a polluted city street – the Reactive Oxygen Species multiply rapidly. These mega-destructive free radicals are thought to play a key role in cell damage and aging.

Have no fear, free radical fighters are here! Antioxidants are the superheroes in our chemistry primer. They fight free radicals by neutralizing their threat. They give these atoms the extra electron they crave and then bam: the free radicals become happy, even-numbered atoms that are able to join forces with each other and repair cell damage.

The best news? Antioxidants don’t become free radicals by giving away an electron. They’re snappy dancers whether they are even or odd numbered. They’re the life of the party and just happy to be invited.

We know that eating foods rich with antioxidants is vital for our health. Think of this as an inside-out means of delivering antioxidants to your skin. We also know that using topical products that contain antioxidants is not only good for the health of your skin, but necessary to retain, and in some cases rebuild, your youthful appearance – see ya, Mr. and Mrs. Robinsons! This outside-in delivery of antioxidants is crucial in reversing the damage free radicals cause.

Using skin care focused on promoting healthy skin and neutralizing the effects of free radicals is essential. Tu’el has combined natural ingredients, the best in cosmetic chemistry and decades of research to develop products that cleanse, tone, protect and nourish your skin.

Our powerful serums work on the molecular level to fight free radicals and reverse damage. Our C Power serum packs the meanest antioxidant punch with potent doses of antioxidants Vitamin C and Green Tea. We use Chelated Vitamin C so the antioxidant is stable longer for maximum delivery into your skin. Green Tea fights free radicals as it repairs and strengthens. Our formula will help reduce fine lines, strengthen skin and vanquish free radicals, reversing the signs of aging and keeping you at your best.

Skin and Aging

If you are lucky you will live a long peaceful life and age gracefully.  

But with that long life you can expect some major changes in what your skin will feel and look like. There is good news and bad news when talking about the skin and aging. We will start with the bad news, then move on to the good.  As the skin ages it thins, even though the number of cells stays the same. Though, the number of cells remain unchanged the cells containing pigment decrease with time. These two changes create a thinner skinned, paler version of the youthful you. It also aids in revealing age spots and previous sun damage. The tissue that connects the skin decreases, giving a saggy less perky look. This loss of elasticity is especially vulnerable to sun damage and can result in a leathery, weather-beaten appearance. The fat under the top layer of skin also thins. That’s why older people need to wear sweaters all the time and yes, I have a sweater on right now. The loss of fat makes wrinkles more and more visible as the fat decreases. The sun feels so good, especially when you are young. But the price you pay for unprotected sun activities is visible when you are older. Ultraviolet rays penetrate the top layer of skin and wreak havoc causing accelerated aging. It’s premature aging delivered topically, especially of you are outside sunbathing. Had a long eventful night and went straight to bed wearing make-up? You might save time but you are smothering your skin when it needs you to care for it most. Wash your face every night so that it can heal, rejuvenate, and rest. Another way to age your skin is from the inside. Smoking, alcohol and eating unhealthy foods can not only impact your health but can speed up the aging process dramatically. Are you ready for the good news? I know I am. You can slow down the aging process. If you really want to improve the look and health of your skin you can find skin care that not only delivers younger looking skin but promotes healthy skin. A common misconception is that you can find great skin care anywhere. That simply isn’t correct. You aren’t going to find the best skin care over the counter at your local pharmacy or grocery store. Why? Because products that are meant to be on the shelf for long periods of time, for all skin types, for all ages, for all circumstances have very few active ingredients to cause real change in the skin. You may experience temporary results but will most likely be looking for something else to replace that product within a year. This is a big reason why skin care companies that make products for the general public come out with new products every year. What you need to slow the aging process are products with active ingredients for your skin type that promote healthy skin. Here are some basic things to look for based on your age. Under 30 and looking to maintain or enhance your youthful radiance? Look for products that:

Protect your skin from the sun

Add hydration

Contain antioxidants

Deeply cleanse the pores

Over 30 year and are noticing the first signs of aging like fine lines, thinner skin, and sun damage? It’s time to up the ante:

Invest in a couple of serums that penetrate the skin deeply

Use a Vitamin C serum with chelated C

Use products specific to your skin type

Get regular facials

Over 40 and have crow’s feet, wrinkles, age spots, or other clearly visible signs of aged skin? Look for these products:

Promote cell regeneration

Build collagen and elastin

Promote circulation

Penetrate the skin

The fact is your facial routine should get a little more complex as you age. You should go from a cleanser and moisturizer with SPF with the occasional exfoliation treatment (in your 20’s) to a cleanser, multiple serums, more aggressive exfoliation, more hydrating creams and a regular visit to a skin care professional. You are naturally beautiful but that doesn’t mean it is effortless to maintain or improve upon it. Treat yourself to lifelong beauty and invest in skin care practices that preserve your youth. Betty White is a perfect example of aging with grace (and humor). At 36 she was stunning and clearly looked younger. By the time she reached 53 she had visible lines near her eyes but still looked great for her age. At 90 she has much thinner skin, and heavier wrinkles than in her 50’s but she doesn’t look a day over 80. Two of Betty’s secrets are never using bar soap to cleanse her face and getting regular facials.  Your are beautiful. Keep it that way for as long as possible with smart choices in your skincare products and routine. Invest a little time and energy, and in products that focus on promoting healty skin.  Purchase products designed for your skin, your lifestyle, and your needs. We want you to enjoy growing older gracefully. Follow our blog to learn more about Tu'el Skincare and discover what we are made of.
