The power of antioxidants on the face

Every day, the skin on our face faces constant challenges: pollution, UV exposure, stress, and unhealthy dietary habits all contribute to premature ageing. To counteract these damages and maintain a healthy, youthful appearance, antioxidants play a fundamental role. These molecules help the skin defend itself against free radicals, unstable compounds that attack cells and accelerate the signs of ageing. Let’s explore how antioxidants work, the different types available, and the best ways to apply them, while also introducing the revolutionary Eva by Endospheres method for facial care.

What are antioxidants and how do they work?

Antioxidants are substances that neutralise free radicals, protecting the skin from their harmful effects. Free radicals are primarily formed due to external factors like sunlight, smoke, and pollution, as well as internal processes like cellular metabolism. When these compounds accumulate, they can degrade collagen and elastin, key proteins for skin firmness and elasticity, leading to wrinkles and dark spots.

Using antioxidant-rich products helps prevent these effects, improving the skin’s ability to regenerate and maintain a youthful appearance. However, not all antioxidants are the same, and it’s important to know which ones are the most effective.

Types of antioxidants: which ones to choose for your face

1. Vitamin C: One of the most powerful antioxidants, vitamin C stimulates collagen production, reduces dark spots, and gives skin a radiant glow. It also acts as a shield against UV rays, preventing photoaging.
2. Vitamin E: Known for its moisturising power, vitamin E strengthens the skin’s defences and protects against sun damage. It is often combined with vitamin C to maximise antioxidant benefits.
3. Polyphenols: Found in plant extracts such as green tea, grapes, and pomegranate, polyphenols have anti-inflammatory properties and improve the skin’s microcirculation, promoting cellular rejuvenation.
4. Coenzyme Q10: This potent antioxidant is naturally present in the body, but its levels decrease over time. It helps reduce fine lines and maintain skin elasticity.
5. Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): This antioxidant supports the repair of the skin barrier and reduces hyperpigmentation, helping to even out skin tone.

How to apply antioxidants on the face: best practices for optimal results

Antioxidants are most effective when used regularly as part of a well-structured skincare routine. Here are some tips for maximising their benefits:

• Serum: Serums are lightweight yet concentrated formulations, ideal for delivering antioxidants deep into the skin. Apply them after cleansing and before moisturising.
• Moisturisers: Many day and night creams contain antioxidants. During the day, be sure to choose a cream with SPF, combining UV protection with the antioxidant power to fight free radicals.
• Face Masks: A face mask enriched with antioxidants can provide a nourishing boost, especially after prolonged sun exposure or periods of stress.

Eva by Endospheres: innovation and nature for radiant skin

Endospheres has developed a revolutionary approach to facial care through the Eva by Endospheres device, an advanced method that uses compressive microvibration to stimulate the skin in depth. This non-invasive treatment improves microcirculation, promotes lymphatic drainage, and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and signs of fatigue. By incorporating antioxidants into your daily routine and combining them with Eva sessions, you achieve firmer, more toned, and radiant skin.

Compressive microvibration enhances the optimal absorption of active ingredients, including antioxidants, making the treatment even more effective. Additionally, it stimulates collagen and elastin production, prolonging the benefits of the substances applied to the skin. Find the nearest Centre!
