Preventing aging in your skin with antioxidants

Hopefully, by now you know that sun avoidance is paramount to delaying the aging changes of the skin.  I would add (tobacco) smoking avoidance to that list too.  Aging of the skin is primarily due to oxidation which can also be delayed or lessened with the application of topical antioxidants found in skin serums and creams.  Many cosmeceutical lines now contain antioxidants.  It is best to use a line that has published good data on the efficacy of their antioxidant product.  For some ideas, see www.skincreamguide.com
