How Do Fatty Acids Work To Help Reverse Signs Of Ageing?

What Are Fatty Acids?

There are different types of essential fatty acids, and they all play a part in how fatty acids work in the body.

You probably remember hearing about fatty acids and the importance and integral part they play in maintaining a well-balanced diet. Fatty acids support a healthy lifestyle.

 Omega-3 is the most commonly used and talked about fatty acid as it is an essential nutrient that plays an integral part in the restoration of your cells throughout your body.  Having a direct effect on regulating hormones and inflammation.

 But can fatty acids benefit your skin?

How Do Fatty Acids Help Your Skin?

Fatty acids are essential if you want radiant and healthy skin. They help by protecting your skin barrier and locking in moisture, keeping it hydrated and helping to restore skin plumpness. As well as skin fullness and evening out fine lines and wrinkles.

Your skin’s moisture barrier is a shield for your skin, aiding to keep your skin’s surface protected from harmful environmental factors that can cause irritations, redness, acne and dehydrated, dry skin.

Include Fatty Acids Into Your Routine

Eating fatty acids through your diet is the best way to get them into your system to nourish your skin, as essentially you are what you eat and nutrient-rich foods which are high in omega fatty acids help to nourish your skin from the inside out.

 However, it is equally important to use products that will work with your skin to effectively protect and hydrate from the outside.

Lipid depletion, or the loss of natural compounds on the skin's surface, such as ceramides, natural cholesterol, and fatty acids, becomes more common as skin ages. As skin loses its ability to efficiently self-repair, lipid loss undermines the skin's natural protective barrier, resulting in signs of ageing, showing fine lines, wrinkles, visible pores, roughness, and a lack of firmness on the skin's surface.

 The best products to use will incorporate fatty acids in their formulas.
