Also, show proof that silk as a material delays aging.
If not, remove that as part of your description.
Read the entire page. Not a single reference at all that silk as a material delays aging.
Also, anyone can write anything, not a single point of research at all.
- How are wrinkles formed?
Generally speaking, your skin looks supple and smooth because of the collagen underneath "pushing" your skin out. Applying force to your skin will cause temporary disfiguration to the site at which the force is applied, which causes the collagen underneath the surface of your skin to deform and be damaged. When you are younger, this damage is easily reparable due to fast metabolism, and as long as the nutrition intake is sufficient, your body will be able to convert the nutrients in food to collagen and mend the damaged skin in a short period of time. This is why wrinkles are harder to find in younger people.
However, as one ages, metabolism tends to slow down, which means that intaking the same amount of nutrients doesn't mean your body can use these nutrients as efficiently, and as such, collagen damage takes longer and longer to repair, and eventually your body will decide that it is no longer worthwhile to spend so much resources on repairing your skin since other parts of your body are more vital to your sustained survival - this is the time when you are gaining wrinkles rapidly.
- How do we reduce/prevent wrinkles?
Given how the wrinkles form, it's obvious there are two approaches to solve the wrinkle problem. One is to increase nutrient intake efficiency, i.e. construct faster than destruct, and the other is to reduce incoming damage so there isn't too much to repair to begin with.
Increase nutrients intake:
This is where the skin care products shine - they contain nutrients needed by the skin to regenerate and the way they are administered allow these nutrients to be directly absorbed by your skin. The drawback, of course, is that good skin care products are often very expensive, and the not-so-good ones may end up doing more harm than good to your skin.Decrease incoming damage:
If you take a look at the 24 hours everybody has in a day, you would find at least 12 of them are spent outside where your skin is subjected to all kinds of damage sources such as direct sunlight, dry wind, heat, pollutants, etc, but these are simply unavoidable since one needs to work to survive. That leaves 12 hours of in-door time, and it is during these 12 hours one can make an effort to reduce incoming damage. Out of these 12 hours, what occupies the biggest chunk? Sleep, without a doubt.
This is where the silk pillowcases come in to make their contribution. When you sleep, your facial skin is in direct contact with your pillowcase (unless you remain a face-up posture all-night long, that is). When you move your head around, your facial skin would rub on the surface of the pillowcase. Naturally, this causes your skin to be pushed and folded at the line of contact due to the pillowcase surface "catching" your skin, and the coarser your pillowcase is, the worst the folding gets - and we all know what these foldings are: they are the initial wrinkles on your face.
Silk pillowcases really shine here because of its extremely low surface friction. When you rub your face against silk, your skin would simply slide instead of being caught, and if your skin is not caught, there is no fold which means wrinkles don't even have a chance of forming during your sleep. This also reduces the pressure of self-reparing your facial skin has during the night to mend the damage done to it during the day, resulting in better regeneration overall.
- How are wrinkles formed?
That is so incredibly stupid. I actually feel more stupid reading that.
So you're telling me that:
- I'm not going to AGE AS FAST, AGE, in all sense of the word, that my organs are going to not deteriorate as quickly, that my cells are continue to replicate just as well because I use a silk pillow?
- That somehow using a silk pillow to "reduce surface friction" so that the "collagen under my skin" doesn't get as damaged makes sense when you think about what happens when you sleep? Like all of your body weight is leaned onto your bed and however much skin is being slept on is pressed against a surface? Somehow rubbing against a surface whenever you turn (not often) is somehow far more damaging to your skin than WEIGHT BEING APPLIED TO YOUR SKIN?
Damn, did you get a year 10 creative writing student with a few buzzwords to write that for you?
@smileymiwo: from beauty side, it does delays aging. aging not exactly means becoming 30s or 40s or 50s but facial aging, mind aging, or hair aging. every part of you is aging all the time.
silk can bring you smoothness and softness.
