Using Horsetail to Reduce Wrinkles - August 20th, 2009

Let’s not worry about being fat anymore. Or about what the best weight loss pills out there are. Let’s talk about wrinkles. Under eye wrinkles are small lines or wrinkles in the skin around the eyes, also referred to as ‘laugh lines’ or ‘crows feet’. This is because the lines resemble the feet of a crow, branching outwards from the outer corner of the eye or below the eye. Most women (and men too) will admit to one (or more) anti-aging cream in their beauty regimen. There are vast creams and lotions on the market claiming to reduce or eliminate under eye wrinkles and fine lines or stop the aging process. The truth is that while creams may help to moisturize the skin, there is no conventional way to get rid of wrinkles. Furthermore, many creams are too rich and may further irritate the skin, or cause the skin to over compensate and disrupt the delicate balance of natural skin oils. What I have found to be very beneficial when trying to reduce wrinkles is an herb that goes by the name of horsetail. No other herb in the entire plant kingdom is so rich in silicon as is horsetail. This trace element really helps to bind protein molecules together in the blood vessels and connective tissues. Horsetail is that kind of rare and unique cosmetic agent which beautifies from the inside out rather than just externally. So the next time you are out looking for an anti-aging wrinkle cream, look for one that contains the herb, horsetail.
