How Does Stress Age You?

Stress happens.  We know it, but hate to admit the fact that stress, emotions, and everyday challenges can impact the condition of our skin, making us look older than we really are. If it’s not one thing, it’s another: decisions, deadlines, and unlimited details to deal with on a regular basis, with only elusive moments for enjoying a little downtime. Even when we try to pamper ourselves with a spa facial, skincare professionals remind us that stress-related lack of sleep, frowning, crying, and tense facial muscles can cause wrinkles, sagging skin, discoloration, bags, crows feet, and other signs of premature aging.

As if that weren’t bad enough, researchers have discovered that stress also speeds up the shortening of telomeres, which are regions found at the ends of chromosomes.  Telomeres protect the tips of chromosomes, similar to the way that aglets prevent the tips of shoelaces from fraying.  When age and stress cause telomeres to deteriorate, our chromosomes are affected, leading to cellular dysfunction associated with visible signs of aging.  Unfortunately, knowing that stress affects even your chromosomes might ratchet up your stress level a few more notches.

However, a remarkable substance called teprenone has been shown to slow down the shortening of your telomeres.  Teprenone is a plant derivative known to extend the lifespan of skin cells and facilitate cellular repair.

Le Mieux Collagen Peptide Serum features teprenone as a key ingredient in a potent blend designed to increase hydration and collagen production for a remarkable lifting and firming effect.   This luxurious, creamy serum also contains the most advanced peptide technologies available, as well as hyaluronic acid, retinyl palmitate, superoxide dismutase, and ceramides I and III to specifically target sagging facial contours.

While most anti-aging creams focus on creating a barrier to seal and retain moisture inside the skin, this serum focuses on increasing the moisture levels from within to achieve toned, firmer-looking skin,” says Janel Luu, CEO of Le Mieux, an award-winning beauty brand praised by estheticians, makeup artists, and celebrities alike. “Collagen Peptide Serum features an exclusive double-encapsulated, timed-release technology that allows potent anti-aging ingredients like teprenone to reach targeted areas and rejuvenate the delicate tissue on the face, neck, and décolleté.”

In Collagen Peptide Serum, teprenone joins forces with ground-breaking peptides to combat signs of aging by improving the appearance of wrinkles and sagging; superoxide dismutase, an antioxidant that fights free radical damage and helps prevent lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation; retinyl palmitate, a form of Vitamin A that encourages exfoliation and promotes collagen production; and ceramides II and III to restore the skin’s essential moisture barrier for a healthy, ageless complexion.

Although you can’t always avoid stress, you can minimize its negative effects on your skin by changing how you respond.  Make time to relax, renew, and rejuvenate… and seek out the anti-aging benefits of teprenone in your skincare choices.
