8 Great Anti-Aging Ingredients
By Coletta Hargis
1. Zinc Oxide
This is the best sunscreen ingredient for providing protection against the long-wavelength UVA rays that ravage our collagen and contribute to hyperpigmentation.
2. Niacinamide
A well-tolerated ingredient that can even increase the tolerability of more irritating ingredients, such as retinoids. It also helps reduce hyperpigmentation and inflammation typically associated with aging.
3. RetinoidsThis is the most-substantiated of all the anti-aging ingredients. It improves fine lines, texture, tone and pore quality. However, avoid it if you’re either pregnant or suffering from rosacea.
Glycolic Acid
Chemical exfoliation delivers more precise and controlled improvements in skin texture and tone, in addition to improved penetration of other skincare “activities”.
5. Salicylic Acid
A great choice of chemical exfoliant with anti-inflammatory properties, great for people with oily/combination skin. It exfoliates, increasing cell turnover and getting into pores to keep them clear and unclogged.
6. Kojic AcidDerived from a fungus, this is a great ingredient for targeting hyperpigmentation, that works well in combination with AHAs.
8. Azelaic Acid
If you’re prone to redness, and want to tackle pore clarity while also exfoliating without irritation, this is the perfect ingredient for you.
