Protect Your Skin From The Sun Daily

One of the largest causes of early wrinkles is exposure to the sun. The unhealthy UV rays emitted by the sun destroy collagen and elastin that maintain the skin firm and smooth. In the long run, this contributes to line and folds. Wear a sunscreen even on overcast days or when staying indoors and close to windows. Select a general-purpose sunscreen of minimum SPF 30. When going outside in very sunny weather, it is also possible to wear sunglasses, hats, and cover your face, to avoid damaging the skin.

Keep Your Skin Well Moisturised

Wrinkles appear more prominent on a dry skin. Moisturising will aid skin in retaining the water and making it tender and squashy. A moisturiser is also effective in fortifying the skin barrier and ageing. Apply a moisturiser that suits your type of skin i.e. gel on the dry skin and cream on the oily skin. Use of moisturiser (twice a day) particularly after washing your face would make a significant difference with time.  Also Read - How to move from stress to stillness: Simple mindfulness habits for peace, calm and mental clarity

Eat Skin-Friendly Foods

What you put in your mouth reflects on your skin. Eat a high amount of fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds in the diet because they contain antioxidants, which combat skin damage. Vitamin C, vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids are found in foods that help in making collagen and enhance skin elasticity. Take enough water during the day to ensure that your skin is moist inside out. Slow skin ageing can be also achieved by reducing sugar, processed foods and fried foods.

Follow A Gentle Skincare Routine

Wrinkles are rejuvenated by harsh scrubbing and frequent use of strong products which damage the skin and cause wrinkles to develop. Wash your face for a few times a day without this and you will not lose natural oils. Light exfoliation one or two times per week removes the dead cells in the skin and makes the skin smoother. During the night, it is possible to apply anti-ageing products composed of such active ingredients as retinol or peptides (in small quantities) to increase the state of fine lines slowly.  Also Read - ‘I look fantastic’: Barry Manilow’s facelift sparks debate on plastic surgery risks for older adults

Sleep Well And Manage Stress

Wrinkles can be aggravated by poor sleep and great levels of stress. The skin is restored during sleep time and new cells are formed. Set 7-8 hours of good sleep as a goal in bed each night. Cortisol levels rise due to stress, and it leads to the breakdown of collagen. Easy tasks to relax and improve your skin as well include the use of simple exercises such as walking, meditation or deep breathing.
