5 Anti-Aging Tips for Your Skin That You Need to Try
Layering on the Sun-screen
The sun might be the supporting the eco-system but according to doctors, the harmful UV rays play a crucial role in damaging and stripping your skin of its youth. Therefore, layering on sun-screens will actually help you in the longer run. Ideally, sun screens with at least SPF 30 should be used daily and don’t think twice about re-applying if you are going to be spending a lot of time in the sun.
Less is more
While most of us tend to fill our cabinets with more and more skin care products, some dermatologists recommend using ONLY the ones you actually need. Using unnecessary amounts of products does not only counteract each other’s benefits, but can cause conflicts in absorption. For example, if you are concerned about the sagging skin on your neck, then you should focus more on it by including top of the line neck products in your beauty regime, rather than including a bunch of products that are not specifically targeted.
Cleanse More, Exfoliate Less
The more you cleanse, the more your skin will feel fresh. However, the more you exfoliate, the more it will be stripped of its natural oils. The key to a healthy glowing skin is to cleanse using both foam and oil based products, twice a day and exfoliate two to three times per week. Professionals believe that over-exfoliation can lead to compensatory hyper-secretion of oil which result in more breakouts and congestion. Also, be sure not to use any products that would pull or tug the skin in any form, especially in case of females above 40.
Saying Hello to Vitamin A
For aging skin, Vitamin A is the Holy Grail. It is known to reduce wrinkles, dark spots, pore sizes and much more. This is why the skin care industry uses it in crazy amounts. Adding vitamin A in your diet as well as applying vitamin A capsules directly can help reverse those early and stubborn signs of aging in no time. You can also try using Retinoid, which is vitamin A derivative compound that has shown to boost collagen production and cell turnover drastically.
Focus on Your Lifestyle
What goes in your body determines what kind of skin you will have- Period. No products, methods or even cosmetic surgery will work until and unless you don’t take care of your body. From sleeping early to getting more physical, there are certain things that need to be done in order to get that glow. As you age, revamp your diet by including in more omega oils, fish, water, green leaves all while cutting out on processed junk.
