The Powerful Acai Berry Helps Your Skin?

The acai berry has been a hot topic since first being brought into the mainstream over here in North America in 2001. It was known amongst healthy professionals as a superfood you can use for it's antioxidant properties. Always no stranger to the media, the acai berry is now taking over skin care formulas.

If you visit your local supermarket, you will find it hard not to see a new product containing the acai berry. It's in juice formulas, antioxidant-rich vitamins, and even systems that claim to cleanse the body. Of course, it's also in weight loss diet pills. The berry comes to us from a long ways away, actually the Amazon forest in Brazil if you want to get technical. If you read any health journal or keep up on healthy living tips, you certainly have read about it.

It's been talked about next to resveratrol and other popular ingredients as a super-antioxidant. We all know what power antioxidants have for us and how they help the skin remove dead skin cells and promote cell regrowth. Of course, if you follow skin care like I do, you know the acai berry has been a good fit for formulas for quite some time. Just now it's been talked about for it's use in eye creams.

Elite Eye Cream & Elite Eye Serum are both skin care products I researched very well. They both contain the acai berry and resveratrol, which is not only impressive, but it's never been done before that I can find online. In fact, in a blind test on a blog I run called EyeSerum, the Elite Serum was awarded the best eye serum of 2009.

If you haven't heard of these products, but know about skin care ingredients, you will be happy to learn that the rest of the ingredients in these products are also well-researched. Go ahead and do some research on gaba, haloxyl, and argirelene, and you will find some of the most solid clinical studies thus far in skin care.

This well-researched blend of ingredients has seen web forums start to receive gobs of traffic from people talking about the eye care products in great detail. Of course, products like these rely on other consumers opinions and spread virally as others see success. So far, the reviews I have read agree with my recommendation for the product.

It's no easy task infusing a formula with the acai berry. The magical berry is actually harvested as a deep purple pulp from 60-foot palm trees in Brazil. There is about a one day period where the berry must be kept in the best of conditions in order not to spoil.

If you look around, the acai berry is pretty much mainstream now. It's in Whole Foods stores as well as other health foods stores and available in forms of pills, juices, and smoothie-like shakes.

This skin care concept doesn't have a lot of feedback from dermatology experts so far, but the company making these eye creams had to go off of some research or medicinal influence. Whether one can credit the acai berry or not for all the success the company is having is yet to be determined, but there is no arguing that the company is doing very well with this new line of products.

After reading some of the reviews online, it's quite possible the acai berry will be a staple in skin care products for a long time.
