A lot of money, time and energy goes into making our faces look younger - smooth our complexion, reduce wrinkles, hide blemishes, and fade discoloration and marks. Interestingly, our necks (and our hands) often show our age more than we might expect.
I guess all of us have been to a county fair. Every time I've been we invariably pass by the guy or gal who is guessing people's age. For a buck or two we get to challenge them with the hopes they'll guess high, and we get to walk away with a prize and the satisfaction we look younger than we are.
Unfortunately, they are more right than they are wrong? Why? Because of the tools of the trade.
These barkers know what to look for. For older folks like me, they go straight for the hands...then on to the neck. Why, because the hands and neck are excellent representations of our age and they often don't get the care and love our faces do.
The neck line has several issues that increase wrinkles and make these wrinkles more predominant. First, there is gravity. I'd suggest most of us have a rather upright neck line facilitating the skin to sag and become more prone to the pull and force of gravity.
Second, unlike the face which has muscle and skeletal structure to give support, tissue on the neck, well, just hangs there. Unless you have a fairly large "adam's apple" to make the skin more taught, wrinkles are likely to be more visible.
Third, neck skin has a place to rest...that being the base of the neck upon the shoulders. That is why you'll notice the first signs of wrinkles appearing on the sides (near the base of the neck) and around the front above the collar bone.
Lastly, neck wrinkles don't get the care they deserve. An effective neck wrinkle cream can help tone skin, firm sagging and moisturize giving your neck as much attention as your face. The neck is often as exposed to elements - wind, dry air, dirt and oil as much as your face. Taking proper care will help reduce neck wrinkles and give you a younger, more youthful appearance.
We recommend neck wrinkle creams that use Collagen III and polypeptides to firm and moisturize. These ingredients combine with other actives such as Hyaluronic Acid, Argireline and Emu Oil to provide increased elastin tissue production, improved cell membrane health and deep moisturize.
Though we can't fight the effects of aging, we can help slow and renew the health of our skin - and walk away with the prize and the knowledge we look younger than we are!
