An antioxidant cream with compelling results
Posted Thursday, November 19, 2009 by Marci Robin Zitner, NewBeauty Senior Online Editor
My experience trying countless skincare products has led me to firmly believe that, despite any clinical proof that claims across-the-board improvements, an ingredient can leave one person raving and another ranting. I've found that certain celebrated anti-aging ingredients do diddly-squat for my face; on the other hand, I now know what ingredients do make a noticeable difference in my skin.
Specifically, my skin really responds to a combination of alpha lipoic acid and DMAE—a combination that doesn't appear in nearly enough products, if you ask me. But luckily, it's in a moisturizer that recently made its way to my desk and, subsequently, my face.
Alpha Lipoic Antioxidant Cream is a sophisticated creation by Veronica Malibu, a spa-based brand run by skincare expert Veronica Barton-Schwartz, who can pass for about 20 years younger than her actual age. She's combined the radiance-boosting title antioxidant with skin-plumping dimethylethanolamine (DMAE is far easier to spell) and an impressive array of other anti-aging ingredients, such as copper, coenzyme Q10, L-carnitine, retinol, grapeseed oil, hyaluronic acid, bergamot tea and nourishing botanical extracts.
Skin is surrounded by moisture, protected from free radicals, and rejuvenated in such a way that your complexion's newfound vibrancy is impossible to miss. At least my complexion's newfound vibrancy is impossible to miss—like I said, I've come to know these ingredients work wonders for me.
If you have yet to try this kind of combo, Alpha Lipoic Antioxidant Cream is an unbeatable example to start—and stick—with. After all, they could very well work the same wonders for you.
