Satisfy your skin’s everyday needs
To stay firm and toned, the skin requires daily nourishment - in fact, our various skin tissues have a range of needs. For example, the formation of collagen and elastin fibres depends on an adequate intake of vitamins, minerals and amino acids. Collagen and elastin are two types of fibrous protein that play a key role in the skin’s structure, giving it its suppleness, elasticity, firmness and resistance.
Nutritional deficiency can therefore have important consequences for the quality of our skin. Alongside a healthy, balanced diet, nutritional supplements can be vital in plugging any gaps. One such product is the multivitamin Daily 6® which provides a concentrate of vitamins and minerals in a single capsule. Proper hydration of skin cells is also essential and benefits not only from regular application of a moisturising cream, but from supplementation with natural ceramides which help to moisturise the skin at a deep level.
Protect the skin from oxidative stress damage
Sagging skin can also be minimised if we combat premature aging of skin cells. To do so, we need to counteract oxidative stress, a process known to cause significant cellular damage. The stresses of daily life, air pollution, excessive exposure to UV rays, poor diet … these are all factors that can promote oxidative stress, and as a result, premature aging of the skin.
The good news is that there are powerful natural antioxidants that can combat oxidative stress. They include a number of plant polyphenols such as resveratrol from grapes, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) from green tea and curcumin from turmeric. These natural antioxidants, which feature in the formulation of dietary supplements such as AntiOxidant Synergy, help protect the skin by tackling oxidation and aging of skin cells.
Combat the process of glycation
Premature aging of the skin can also be caused by another reaction called glycation. While this mechanism is perhaps less well-known than oxidative stress, it can nonetheless have a significant impact on the integrity of the skin. Scientists have shown that glycation of elastin and collagen fibres may speed up loss of elasticity and tone in the skin.
Fighting glycation is thus a key element in preventing sagging of the skin, and for this, we need carnosine, a peptide known for its anti-glycation effect. Carnosine can be produced in the body when we digest protein-rich foods but it can also be provided by dietary supplements. One such product is carnicine, a stable form of carnosine available from the SuperSmart catalogue.
Take exercise to firm up the skin
As mentioned, the skin loses its firmness for a variety of reasons. In addition to oxidative stress, and premature aging of cells through glycation, physical inactivity and weight loss are also contributing factors. Following a long period of inactivity, or after losing weight, it’s not unusual for the skin to appear untoned.
Experts often recommend taking exercise in order to maintain firm, toned skin. Among the sports recognized for having toning, firming effects is swimming which has the advantage of mobilising every part of the body: the arms, thighs, hips, stomach … Fitness and strengthening exercises can also be effective and are often a popular choice for tightening the skin after weight loss or extended periods of inactivity.

Great customer service
The address correction app put in the incorrect address and I missed it when I hit the accept option. I noticed it when the order was already in route and called customer service to request that they change it to the correct address as the shipper and they were right on top of it. They called me back right away and changed the address. They sent a new email with the tracking information and called me to let me know it was all taken care of. Really happy with the product and customer service.
