(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 13, 2013 ) San Francisco, CA -- While the beauty industry has no shortage of creams and products on the market, with literally thousands being hocked at almost any given time, one might wonder: Do any really make a difference?
It was previously considered that effects like crows feet seem to be stubborn and immovable, researchers from the University of Reading claim that an ingredient used in anti-wrinkle cream do work to turn back time when it comes to wrinkles. Apparently the new “miracle chemical” produces a clear anti-aging result by upping the overall amount of protein collagen produced within the skin. The researchers noted a doubling of the protein.
Collagen occurs in the skin-repairing process naturally, giving skin it firmness and elasticity. The total of collagen produced within the body decreases as one ages. Researchers have stated that the protein has become something of an essential ingredient in many anti-aging products that claim to erase wrinkles and restore skin.
While many products do claim to stimulate production of the necessary protein, some contain the actual collagen itself. Still, because of the competition in the industry, researchers have noted that the effectiveness of the ingredients used in most products are hard to find.
There have been many studies in the past that show pricey products that claim to hold the secret to age-defiance have little-to-no effect. In 2011, researchers from the University of Bath noted that collagen molecules in creams were too large to soak through the skin, and thus simply sat on the surface until rubbed off in short order.
Now the team of researchers from Reading have tested effectiveness of peptide known as MatrixylTM on collagen. To the surprise of many, they found there was enough of the necessary ingredients to show actual effectiveness.
"Studies like this are very important for the consumer as cosmetic companies rarely publish their work so rivals can't copy their products," Professor Ian Hamley, from the University of Reading's Department of Chemistry, said in a statement, adding that the latest finding "shows that products with MatrixylTM will have skin-care benefits."
