<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Wrinkles are a normal part of aging, but they can also be caused by factors like sun exposure, smoking, dehydration, and poor diet. Fortunately, there are several anti-aging ingredients that can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles while keeping your skin looking youthful and healthy. Let’s take a look at some of the most popular anti-aging ingredients and how they work to prevent wrinkles. </span></p>
<h2><b>AHAs </b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs)</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><span> </span>exfoliate the top layer of your skin which helps to remove dead skin cells and reveal brighter, more even toned skin underneath. AHAs like glycolic, citric, and lactic help reduce wrinkles by preventing build up of dead cells on the surface of your skin which allows for better absorption of other anti-aging ingredients like retinoids or ceramides. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The<span> </span></span><a href="https://us.filorga.com/products/scrub-mask"><b>SCRUB & MASK</b></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"><span> </span>contains citric acid. It is a dual-action mask that reveals cleaner and fresher looking skin.</span></p>
<h2><b>ANTIOXIDANTS LIKE VITAMIN C</b></h2>

<h2><b>CERAMIDES </b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ceramides<span> </span></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">are fatty molecules that help keep your skin hydrated and supple. Ceramides help to strengthen the skin’s outermost layer, which helps reduce wrinkles over time. </span></p>
