Let’s talk: Oxidative Aging⚡️ You may have heard of this, but what does it actually mean?
Oxidative aging™️ is a term used by AlumierMD to describe skin ageing caused partly by ‘oxidative stress’.
This is when unstable molecules called ‘free radicals’ damage skin cells and structures - faster than the skin can neutralise them💫
In simple terms:
➡️Free radicals are produced naturally by the body, but UV exposure, pollution, smoking, stress and other environmental factors can increase them.
➡️These molecules can damage collagen, elastin, cell membranes and DNA.
➡️Over time, this can contribute to fine lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness, uneven pigmentation and a dull complexion.
➡️Antioxidants help defend the skin by neutralising free radicals. This is why antioxidant ingredients are an important part of many AlumierMD skincare routines.
➡️Daily broad-spectrum SPF is particularly important because UV radiation is a major source of oxidative stress and premature ageing!
