Anti-Aging Skin Care Oils

I’ve just bought an anti-aging skin care oil to try out, always in the never-ending search of skin rejuvenation products that are antiaging and natural. It’s a natural essential oil from the Tamanu tree (Calophyllum tacamahaca) which grows on the island of Tahiti.

Among other things, this oil promises skin rejuvation – antiaging, scar removal, moisturizing and correct dry red scaly skin problems and has powerful antioxidant properties. Anti-oxidants in this oil help prevent oxidative skin damage, something we all want.


This 100% cold pressed Tamanu nut oil smells of a delightful, nutty fragrance which brings me to another point, you should not use this if you are allergic to nuts. However, if you are not allergic to nuts, you smooth on the oil all over your body after a bath or washing your face. It can be used directly on the skin. I bought and tested the Tamanu Nut Oil bottled by Hedd Wyn Essentials and it comes in a little bottle with a roll-on applicator – very good for target problem areas such as age spots and wrinkles under the delicate eye area. The shelf life of this essential oil is ten to 14 months, but shelf life will be reduced if it is store in a hot climate and not kept cool.

Tamanu Nut Oil is a natural antiaging oil, good for your skin and good for your body and helps prevent the signs of aging we don’t want. It especially works well on fine wrinkles and age spots and I’m applying it directly to those nasty brown age spots on my arms and hands a couple of times a day.

Nanoblur Review

I promised a while back that I would write a review on the antiaging skin care product Nanoblur which promises to make you look “ten years younger.” Well, the time has come and I started using it about two weeks ago and can now publish my findings. I started using it because my friend who's using Nanoblur as well told me she was using it and I had to get it.


So I decided to start using Nanoblur, try it out and write this review. I noted that my friend's face looked softer and still natural so I tried it out the next day.


Nanoblur is a cream that you apply after you have put on your moisturizing cream. It's got a nice light texture. It is supposed to correct the things we want to get rid of as we age, such as fine lines, wrinkles, crow's feet and enlarged pores. It also promises to make you look 10 years younger.


Here are my findings: overall, it gives your skin a softer glow. That I can vouch for viewing my friend's face and my own. It may get rid of some of my fine lines and some of my wrinkles. It helped with the large pore situation. I don't have crow's feet yet so I can't judge that aspect of Nanoblur.


My biggest disappointment is that, no, it doesn't make me look 10 years younger by any stretch of the imagination. It doesn't make my best girlfriend look 10 years younger. Really, that promise is sort of stretching the truth. Should you buy this product? Yes, I'll keep using it because I must admit, it does add a kind of softness to the skin and I like that in Nanoblur. If you want to obtain that softness, try Nanoblur and you will see that it does, at least, give you this... Add this product to your anti-aging arsenal.Link

Does growth hormone slow aging?

Many people are rushing to buy growth hormone for a variety of reasons. However, one of the key reasons is that it is believed that growth hormone can slow aging or prevent it all together. Growth hormone is produced in a pea-sized structure located at the base of the brain. This hormone is vital for normal growth and development. Without growth hormone, many organs cannot develop and life expectancy is shortened. Growth hormone levels are highest during the early years of life and the production is less with advancing age. Today, there is synthetic growth hormone available that can only be injected. It is available with a prescription for certain approved medical disorders. in general, growth hormone deficiency is extremely rare and the majority of cases may be due to brain tumor, surgical removal or radiation therapy. When growth hormone is administered to people it can increase bone density, increases muscle mass, decreases body fat and even increases exercise capacity. However, there are no long-term studies, which show that growth hormone can prevent aging or reduce the rate of aging.


Growth hormone affects may organs in the body and is not an innocuous protein- there are definite risks when taking this hormone unnecessarily. People who take growth hormone can develop numerous nerve compression syndrome including carpal tunnel syndrome, swelling in the legs and arms, muscle and joint pains, breast growth in men and uneven growth. There is strong evidence, which shows that growth hormone can also worsen or produce new onset diabetes and stress the heart. These side effects of growth hormone are much more common in older people compared to young individuals.


Growth hormone is widely sold over the internet as a pill but it appears that these are fake products. Growth hormone is small protein molecule that would immediately be destroyed by the stomach acidity when taken by mouth, so oral preparations are useless. If you want to look young, then growth hormone is certainly not the answer. The best way to look young is to quit smoking, exercise regularly and eat healthy. You can rest assured, everyone will die and if you fool around with growth hormone, you may not age butLink you sure can die prematurely.
