Antioxidants have become a vital ingredient in the skincare world due to their anti-aging properties. Of course, there is nothing wrong with aging; it is a process all of us and our skin will endure; however, there are ways to slow the process and preserve your skin's natural glow. Antioxidants are substances used in skincare products that protect the skin from UV damage, irritation, and free radical damage. Free radicals break down the collagen in our skin resulting in wrinkles, dark spots, and breakouts. 

This robust component of s products is fundamental to keeping your skin youthful, glowing, and healthy. Several antioxidants in skincare can be found on the market today, so we're going to break down exactly what to look out for when building your ideal anti-aging routine.
