What is ageing and what are its causes ?

UV rays and pollution harm our skin since we are born; causing tanning/sun burn, acne, irritation etc. As we grow older, the health of our skin visibly deteriorates too. However, this is not because the sun and pollution become more effective. Rather our skin loses the ability to repair the damage so done. This is because our cells renew at a slower pace. Free radicals in our body further damage the cells, making the signs of aging even more prominent. The skin thus requires even more nourishment and care with every passing year; to help it repair the damage; as well as prevent any further damage.
