If you’re looking to be a natural beauty, fruit acids are the way to go.
The use of natural fruit acids is not new. Polynesians used sugarcane and fruit juices to soften their skin. Legends of Cleopatra’s milk baths are well known in beauty care. The common denominator is a group of natural, non-toxic substances derived from fruits, milk and molasses.
Natural Fruit Acids
Researchers confirm and validate what has been known in ancient times and other cultures: natural acids have the unique ability to loosen this intercellular fluid, thereby allowing the top layer of dead skin to slough off easily.
All natural fruit acids, from sugarcane, citrus fruits and apples are far more gentle to our skin but are just as effective for skin exfoliation when used in the proper proportions.
The Natural Ageing Process Of Our Skin
The skin is made up of two layers, the epidermis and the dermis. It is the epidermis that is mostly responsible of the appearance of your skin.
The uppermost layer of the epidermis is made up of old dried, damaged cells we generally call dead skin. This layer is meant to be sloughed off, to exfoliate by itself, steadily and naturally. The exfoliation of the dead skin actually stimulates new cell growth in the lower layer.
When we are young, this process is very efficient and the skin remains soft, healthy and vibrant. As we age, the process slows down and the accumulated layers of dead skin grown thicker and stiffer.
The outer layer of skin begins to crease easily, forming fine lines and building up deep wrinkles to a rough and scaly appearance.
Alpha-hydroxy Acid
Alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA) are natural substances derived from fruits, sugar and other plants. They have been proven to be effective in minimizing the appearance of wrinkles, age spots and fine lines. They work by loosening the glue-like bonds in the outermost layer of our skin cells, thereby gently exfoliating the dead, dull skin cells.
The Key To Youthful-looking Skin
Exfoliation is the most important key to long term beauty. Clinical techniques of laser peel, dermabrasion and chemical acid peels are considered by many to be harsh ways of smoothing a complexion.
Using a natural skin peel with fruit acid and balancing fruit enzymes provide gentle exfoliation.
