We have all wondered what the very best ingredients REALLY are for getting rid of wrinkles and lines on our face and neck. Well, Oleda has known for many years and has used them for almost 15 years...now an Anti Aging Expert on the Oprah Winfrey Show has confirmed it! Here is the answer…
Alpha Hydroxy Acids...BUT...there are several types of AHA to choose from and, of course, many different strengths, as well. Some AHA formulas make your skin "flaky and peeling," while others do not. Also, what about the sun and AHA? The answers below will clear it up for you once and for all.
AHA
Oleda has used an Alpha Hydroxy Acid skin cream on her face and neck and has been touting its benefits for 15 years. Oleda truly believes that the OLEDA Formula I 15% AHA cream is the best on the market, and she holds up her 71-year-old skin to you to prove it. I agree with her 100% and here's why:
the OLEDA Formula I has 5 different AHA in it to make sure we get the most and best benefits possible from the combination. They are Lactic, Citric, Tartaric, Malic and Glycolic. This mix works very well.
Alpha Hydroxy Acid helps dissolve the bond, the "glue" as it were, that holds dead cells on the surface of the skin. It helps repair the aging or damaged lower cellular level because its molecules are tiny enough to penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin. It helps the underlying tissues become firm for greater elasticity.
Collagen is a natural protein that provides structural support. The fibers of collagen are woven together like threads in fabric to form a framework into which new cells can grow.
AHA helps to stimulate and maintain these cells so that the skin appears softer, fuller and smoother. It helps diminish age spots, lines, wrinkles and sun damage, as well as tighten pores and help correct both dry and oily skin.
The Strength
Some "AHA" creams have as low as 1% or 2% concentration...forget about getting rid of wrinkles and lines with such formulae. Then there are those that claim they have 20%...be very careful of these. Our laboratory chooses 15%, which is high, but we added 2 conditioners to soften any side effects and to keep the skin soft and beautiful during treatments. Maintaining a pH factor of 4.5, this balance is perfect and it works without the harsh side effects some are known to have, such as irritation and skin "peeling or flaking" rather than quietly sloughing off. This formula is also strong enough to plump up the flattened cells under the skin to give a more youthful appearance.
The Sun
While using AHA you must be very careful of the sun, since your skin will be more susceptible to it. You should avoid the sun as much as possible anyway to prevent skin aging in general, as well as possible skin cancer. While you're using AHA, make sure you use a proper sunscreen on any exposed area. For outdoor sports activities while using AHA wear a hat for added protection.
When not to use AHA
A makeup foundation or powder cannot be worn over a good Alpha Hydroxy Acid formula, so you must use it at night or when you are not wearing makeup. The AHA formula that is strong enough, and has conditioners, will cause your makeup to be uneven and splotchy...so just apply AHA before bedtime.
Another Anti Aging Expert says:
I'm happy to say that OLEDA CELL-abration Formula I Alpha Hydroxy cream has become one our best selling products. But, there are some people who might still be skeptical. For those of you who are just not sure, I would like to refer you to the Oprah Winfrey Show of May 3, 2005. You can get a copy of the transcript, even download it, at www.oprah.com, which will take you to her home page. From there, click on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" in the left menu, then, on the right, click on the "Archives." This show was all about anti aging.
One of Oprah's guests was Dr. Michael Roizen, a renown anti aging specialist. During his interview, Dr. Roizen talked about the very positive effects of Alpha Hydroxy Acid on wrinkles and damaged skin and that AHA ingredients are really the only ones that can help with wrinkles. He also mentioned how it helps produce new skin, which makes us look younger.
You would be surprised to learn what Dr. Roizen had to say about all the claims made by the makers of those many expensive creams and lotions that do not contain AHA. Oprah seemed to be, too. And, when you see this dialog for yourself, perhaps then you'll believe me, if you don't by now!
Clarification
But there are some clarifications I need to mention here. When Oprah and Dr. Roizen talk about the effect of products without AHA, they're referring to wrinkles and lines in the face and neck. Don't confuse this with needing other applications of night cream and day cream that are very necessary to maintain your skin in a youthful, healthy condition, in conjunction with AHA.
