Skin care products are disclosed for reducing, delaying or preventing skin ageing. The products comprise oral and topical formulations and contain at least one inhibitor of catabolism of the extracellular matrix and at least one anabolic or pro-anabolic factor for the extracellular matrix. The inhibitors of catabolism may be one or more of a UV impermeable material, a free radical quencher, an antioxidant, an anti-inflammatory fatty acid, matrix metalloprotease inhibitors or protease inhibitors. The anabolic factors may be one or more of vitamin C, vitamin B6, zinc ions, copper ions, glucosamine, manganese or selenium. In a preferred embodiment, the inhibitor of catabolism is applied topically, and the anabolic or pro-anabolic factors are taken orally. |
