Nutritional Benefits with an Herbal Anti Aging Facial Mask
Many people don't realize the added benefits of using natural skin care products aside from healthy skin. If you examine the ingredients of many natural skin care products and organic facial masks you might notice they are packed with mineral, vitamin, and antioxidant properties. The skin can act as a sponge and absorb these ingredients leading to an overall body wellness in addition to glowing skin. Take an herbal anti aging mask as an example, filled with potent herbs, such as Rosemary, Marsh Mallow, Dill Fennel, Lavender, Mint, Oregano, Aloe Vera, Cumin, Basil, Green Tea. Each of these ingredients will have a great effect on the body if eaten, yet many of the properties can also be absorbed through the skin.
Our skin has the unique ability to selectively absorb topical ingredients and pass them into the blood stream for use through out the body. It is true that eating these herbs can have a more powerful effect, but don't under estimate the effectiveness of your facial skin along these ingredients to enter through its pores when using an herbal anti aging facial mask. Many nutritionalists will agree that the antioxidants, micronutrients, enzymes, and herbal properties will be beneficial when exposed to the body through any means. Many ancient traditions have relied on these herbal properties to heal the sick and cure diseases both topically and internally. Understand these benefits when you choose your facial mask or natural skin care product in order to find the product best suited for your facial care needs.
These nutritional characteristics are important because as our society evolves many people don't fully understand the reasons for certain skin care practices like the use of herbal anti aging facial masks. Vibrant skin is the objective of many people who uses these organic skin care products. However the growing knowledge will help to educate people that part of the reason the skin looks healthy is because our skin reflects the well being of our inner body. Offer the inner body these beneficial ingredients and in turn our body will assist in creating a balance which can bee seen visually though the skin. In addition the cells which are most effected are the ones closest to the application. Our facial skin is so delicate it is able to absorb many of these properties more effectively than the torso for example. This is an added bonus because many natural skin care products are specifically designed for facial skin.
The conclusion we can make is the use of an herbal anti aging facial mask can offer more than just topical benefits. Many of the ingredients found in an herbal anti aging facial mask will offer nutrients, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and enzymes that can be used throughout the entire body. The internal benefits will help produce desirable external benefits resulting in a nourished body with glowing vibrant skin. The regular use of herbal anti aging facial mask products will keep you happy and healthy.

Rash! by AOB512 from Washington, DC, USA on 2010-09-02 I wish I would have read these reviews before trying this product, though I am not sure it would have made a difference--I probably would still have bought it. I have never had a reaction to a moisturizer or sunscreen or even make-up before, but while applying my third application of this I noticed the red rash on my cheeks that others have mentioned. I've used other Oil of Olay products with no incident, and I was actually trying to switch to this from the Neutrogena anti-aging product I had been using simply because of the name brand. Didn't work.Aside from the rash, I was also not a fan of the texture of this product--it was thicker and greasier than I had expected, more of a traditional sunscreen than a moisturizer. All over disappointing.
Be careful... by Caridad E. Macyke from Miami, FL United States on 2010-05-18 I applied this item as directed and it worked great everywhere -- except my cheeks, where it caused burning, irritation, and a very visible rash. My skin is not super sensitive and I've never once had a reaction to a moisturizer/sun screen before. I would STRONGLY suggest testing on a small area unless you're okay with risking walking around with a nasty rash for a couple of days. I have tried it again and it always burns in the same area but is fine everywhere else, not sure why.I understand that reactions vary by individuals, so I didn't think it would be fair to give this item one star. I don't believe it's the product's fault that my skin couldn't handle it, and like I said, it did work well everywhere else. I ordered other Olay products at the same time as this and have used them without incident.
unbelievable results by Tracy L. Leverone from kingston ma on 2010-05-09 Started using this at a friend's recommendation, replacing a product that was about 4 times more expensive. Some aging spots have significantly faded and the moisturizing effect is even better than the other product from a salon. We'll see how it does with sun protection this summer.
Great product, great price by L. Shrock from Sun Valley, CA United States on 2010-04-27 I have used everything, from Avon to Clinique, BioTherm, you name it I've spent a fortune on it. I have even tried Dermalogica. This product is WONDERFUL. It actually leaves my face feeling moisturized instead of dry and irritable. It cost 1/3 the price I was paying for moisturizer. Fragrance FREE - What a concept!! Great job Oil of Olay. I can now moisturize my face without my eyes burning and tearing for an hour afterward. May skin feels baby soft after I put this on it and it does not burn and itch, in the dry weather it brings great relief. I wake up in the morning and I cannot wait to put my daily moisturizer on.
great moisturizer by J. Saling from on 2010-04-15 I have used this amazing moisturizer for years and was excited to find it at such a reduced price but was disappointed when told that I would not be receiving it at the same price on an ongoing basis. It was originally listed as a product I could receive as often as I wanted it sent to me.

Nice, working slowly by ArcKal from Oak Brook IL, USA on 2010-05-03 This was my first beauty treatment from Olay. I was a little concerned before buying and applying it. I applied it and result came about after for two weeks, my skin felt now a little lifted, no more losen skin specially on neck and close to eyes. I apply it daily before sleep, once a day.Comparing with other similar treatments, it looks a little expensive, but I subscribed from Amazon to get 15% off.
awful. by Alice from on 2010-03-10 I normally use regenerist which works great, so this time I thought I'd try one of Olay's other products. It might have been a coincidence but while I used I had breakouts and my skin was dry. Save your money.
Feels great!1 by Susan M. Franko from Upstate NY on 2009-07-08 I love the Olay products, and this was no disapointment. Very creamy and smooth feeling.
My skin is so soft! by Jen from Houston on 2009-06-22 I have been using the product for a week now and I've noticed that my skin is very soft and supple. I put one whole pump morning and night because I use a medication that severely dries out my skin and the dry flakes are now gone. Only time will tell if it has anti aging properties, but it doesn't hurt to try.
Overpriced...underperforms by Rusty from CA on 2009-06-14 This product is actually a lotion, not a creme which I expected. Being a lotion and rather thin in consistency, you will have to use a lot more. This is especially true considering the fact that there does not seem to be a whole lot of moisturizers in it. I find my cheap Suave hand lotion moisturizes my skin better, and at about 1/50th the cost ounce for ounce.

Artificial smell by Pamela Tuma from on 2010-09-01 If you are sensitive to artificial smells do not buy this product. It would be much better if it was unscented!
Great Protection by Chun-yuan Y. Hu from Flushing, NY United States on 2010-09-01 Great protection (50spf for face), smooth application and it absorb easily. I would suggest it to those who have dry-normal skin. I have a sensitive skin and this one all right for me.
Wonderful lotion by asiana from Chicago on 2010-08-31 Non-greasy, no perfumy odor,works well. What more is there to say? This is my third bottle!
Great coverage by Betty from on 2010-07-25 Protects my middle-aged skin from harmful rays while I work outside most of the day. My skin feels soft and supple. I've been an Olay user since I was 18 and my skin looks good.
OLAY Youth by Dawn from OCEANSIDE, NY, US on 2010-07-23 I have used OLAY products since I was 16. Now I'm 42 and can easily pass for 30 not just because I was blessed with good genes:) OLAY products have played a role and UV defense regenerating lotion SPF 50 is no excepection. Most important is offers SPF 50 so I can go out with/without make-up and never have worry about sun damage=wrinkles ladies. It hydrates and provides the anti-aging nutrients my skin needs to both prevent and correct any damage, ie: wrinkles, crows feet, sun damage, protects against free radicals. All the while making your skin feel refreshed, never sticky or shiney with a radient glow. Great under make-up. If you're over 35, it's time to get grown-up moisturizer because the mirror never lies unless you use OLAY UV defense regenerating lotion SPF 50 (lol).

Best Product for Lips by Naila from Lahore, Pakistan on 2009-07-06 A great product, best in the market compared to other expensive treatments. Instant moisturising and results that last for hours. Addiction has happened can't use any other lip product.
Very disappointed by L. M. Malec-Lewis from Western MD USA on 2009-03-06 I was very disappointed in this lip treatment. My lips tend to be very dry and I am always looking for something new to try for that problem. This product actually made my lips even drier and redder. It feels great going on but after that it is downhill. I normally love the Olay Regenerist line of products and that is why I thought this was going to be great. Sorry to say, but the Anti Aging lip treatment just doesn't cut it.
Not a miracle, just a little good help by Digigirl from Sugar Land, TX on 2008-02-28 I am 41 years old. Recently I'd begun to notice that the little vertical creases around my upper lips were really starting to look deep and severe. My upper lip in general was looking thinner. I know some of this is hereditary - I remember my mom's lips looked just like this. But, like us all, I wondered if there was something I could do. I'm very skeptical of all the "anti-aging" wrinkle creams out there, but I've been happy with some other Olay products so figured I'd give this one a try.I've been using this for about 2 weeks now and am really noticing a difference. I keep it in my purse and apply throughout the day, using as a regular lip balm / lip gloss (I don't wear lipstick). In terms of gloss, I like the way it looks - natural and moist rather than slick and shiny. It feels fine, similar to other lip balms, with just a tiny hint of tingle. I have been applying this on my lips and also just beyond the lipline as well. Those sharp lines around my lips have really softened - they haven't gone away, but they are softer and my upper lip looks a little more plump and natural than it did before, more like it did when I was younger. The lines are less noticeable due to the plumping of the lip itself and the softening of the lines along the edge.I'm a believer in this product and will definitely continue to use it.
Terrible results by Val from Mount Juliet, TN on 2008-02-03 This product made my lips very dry and cracked. I usually use Burt's Bee balm to keep my lips hydrated. The Olay product not only didn't fill out any lines, but actually dried out my lips incredibly and made them crack. I would definitely NOT recommend this product to anyone.
I tried their skin and eye Regenerist lines and really like them. I was hoping this would work as the skin care line was highly rated by Consumer Reports, but alas, it didn't. It actually made things worse and at $6, a tube, I would save my money and buy three tubes of Burt's!
Never got it by Erin H. Edwards from Bristow, VA on 2007-10-21 Well I never got the item, but I was refunded the money without having to contact them.

Too thick and left me with a white face! by Denisse from on 2010-08-25 This product was good for my sensitive skin, as it did not give me any reaction. Although I wanted it as a daily moisturizer with high protection. It is too thick to put on my face and it left me looking white! I looked ghostly, quite unflattering!
Best sunscreen ever. by Mariely from on 2009-09-13 I used it for 21 days under the sun and I didn't get tanned a bit. It doesn't leave the white color on your skin. It does not smell at all. I totally recommend it, but also recommend that you put moisturizer first, since it is kind of rough applying it to the skin without something that can help you move it.

Epic waste of $ - worse than useless, actually seems aging by kskiska from on 2010-08-12 I couldn't agree more with Pame Derr's review. I've been using this for a few weeks and I could swear that my skin actually looks worse since using this - lines/crow's feet MUCH more prominent, skin drier and more lackluster. Everyone used to tell me I look young for my age but since using this it seems I've aged years. As expensive as this was I discontinued use after only a few weeks and still half the bottles remaining as my face seemed to be going the way of Dorian Grey's portrait.
Another great product by Neutrogena by J. Hoormann from Missouri, USA on 2010-05-24 I'm a BzzAgent and I received a product sample and coupon from BzzAgent for the new Neutrogena Clinical facial lifting wrinkle treatment. After I first started using this product my face began feeling so much softer to the touch. The cream feels so silky when I apply it to my face and has a light fresh scent. I spent years out in the sun as a child and teenager without even thinking about sunscreen. That is just the way it was back then and now I have a lot of sun damage and freckles. I really want to try to take care of my skin as I age.
All you have to do is apply the grey Ion2 serum complex and you can feel it working. The ion2 complex is in one tube that is applied to your washed face and works overnight. The other bottle is the day activating cream. It can be used under makeup. One great thing about this product is that doing something proactive for your skin doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg. I have been using
it for about 6 weeks now and notice that my skin feels softer and
pores looks smaller too.
Neutrogena is a brand I trust and that has been recommended by my
dermatologist more then once.
Anyway, if anyone wants to try this great new product you can download a rebate form at [...]
very disappointed by Pame Derr from Pennsylvania on 2010-05-06 When I was younger I swore by neutrogena products, though as I reached my 40's they didn't really have products for mature skin, so I switched to Oil Of Olay, which have been using for some time. When I had seen Neutrogena came out with this product for mature skin, I was thrilled and excited to try it. After one week of using this product I was very disappointed! I'm 51, but look like in early 40's, after a week of using this product, my face seemed dryer, lines were more visable, skin just didn't look healthy. I switched back to Oil Of OLay and skin is looking better again. For the price I paid was very disappointed and the tiny bottles just wasn't worth it to me! If you never used a skin care product might be good for you, but if you are using a product and happy with it, I would not suggest wasting your money!!!

Good cleaning powder, a little strong for very sensitive skin by Sarah from Houston, TX USA on 2010-09-01 I have very sensitive facial skin prone to acne and rosacea-like patches. I began using this night and day, as directed, for about 1 week. It cleanses well and thoroughly, without making my skin too dry or "tight." I feel that the dead skin cells are sloughed off nicely, and my face feels fresh. However, I feel that washing twice a day (as indicated in directions) may be too much for very sensitive skin. I would highly recommend washing using this once at night, before bed, to remove impurities on your facial skin which may have accumulated a lot during the day, and plus it would probably be better to use at night anyway since the alpha-hydroxy acid would make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. I'd recommend just washing with a very gentle cleanser (or even just water!) in the morning. I still have red patches and bumps on my skin, so it doesn't seem to be creating a drastic improvement in my skin, at least for the past week, that's why I'm giving it 3 stars. I'm planning on using it for another week or so, but using it only *one* time daily, only at night before I sleep.Note: you should make sure to wear a good sunscreen since using any products with AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) can make your skin more sensitive to the sun.
My favorite face wash ever! by Candy Force from St. Louis, MO on 2010-08-18 I am a complete devotee of Alpha Hydrox products in general, and the foaming face wash in particular. It removes makeup with no sting to the eyes and cleans gently and well. I just wish I could still buy it in stores. No one seems to carry it anymore. We must keep them in business! Buy this!!
BEST FACE WASH EEEEEEVER!! by H. WILLARD from on 2010-04-13 I've used Alpha Hydrox products for over twenty years. I've tried other products now and again, but always come back to them because I find them the BEST skin care products out there. This wash always leaves my skin clean, baby soft and helps keep is soft and clear. I have teens and between us we use the A.H. acne treatment, lightner, lotion, etc. GREAT PRODUCTS at a GREAT PRICE!
Cleared up my acne and plumped my skin by malcontent from Boston, MA USA on 2010-04-05 I purchased this product, along with the lotion, on the recommendation of my esthetician who said it would "go a long way towards preventing aging." I'm pretty much a beauty product lazy bones, and prior to using these I rarely even washed my face before bed--reason being, that I doubted most products really DID much of anything. But I decided to give it and the lotion a try.WELL, this product made a noticeable difference in my skin the very first time I used it. My acne instantly began clearing up and the acne discolorations that had long been there started fading. But the most pleasant side effect was that my skin looked a lot plumper and more youthful! I cannot imagine a product performing any better than this.I have to say that I'm really impressed. The price cannot be beat. Also, it did not irritate my notoriously sensitive skin. Buy it, you will not be disappointed.
Outstanding product and value! by Cloudwalker from Lansdale, PA United States on 2010-03-26 This line is highly rated as state of the art skincare by independent reviewer Paula Begoun (author of "Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me.")

I especially like that I don't have to shop all over to find, I order and it's here in a couple of days.

Preemptive strike by Jennifer Rooth from Shawnee, OK USA on 2010-08-01 I'm only 22 years old, but I like to use anti-aging products as a precautionary measure instead of a fix for something already damaged. With this cream, a little goes a long way, my face feels moisturized without being greasy, and it makes my skin feel more elastic after wearing it all night. A great buy if you have sensitive skin!
Swisa is fantastic by Maria S from Switzerland on 2010-05-01 I was a bit sceptical at first, as there are so many new fancy brands on the market with 8 peptides per cream, all new branded ingredients and myths around them, bla bla bla. I decided to give it a go after reading all great reviews here. I was looking for a new skincare line as high-end brands are just rediculuosly overpriced for what they offer.Result- Swisa really improved my skin when I had a serious clogged pores situation (fulliculitis).No idea whether it is dead sea salts or selection of ingredients in general, but my skin looks better than ever, firm, reduced wrinkles, younger by a decade (I am 35), zero spots.I use it in combination with the Prototype - 37c and UNT AHA/ABA serum.It is sold at discount on Amazon, and A-VIVA seller fills in details in the product description form in a client-oriented manner so you do not have to pay import tax. Fantastic deal all in all.I would recommend this brand to anyone.
Refreshing by L. R. Willson from Arizona on 2008-10-28 Goes on easily, leaves skin feeling nourished and smooth. Love the fresh scent. Highly recommended.
Swisa is awesome by C. Mattos from California on 2008-02-15 Swisa is a product that uses dead sea salts and minerals. Cleopatra used the dead sea as her own beauty spa. This company's products are awesome and you will notice positive effects within the first few days. What is even nicer, is that a little goes a long way, so the product will last you a while. I highly recommend buying Swisa and Premier products from Amazon becuase you'll get them for half the price of buying them at your local mall kiosk.
