Protect Your Skin From the Sun

It doesn’t matter if you are running errands or heading to the beach or the park; you need to protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun. You can use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 that is water-resistant to ensure it stays on longer. Make sure that you apply sunscreen to any skin that isn’t covered by your clothing.

You can also use other things such as sunglasses, a long-sleeved shirt, wide-brimmed hats, and clothing that offers UV protection.

If you really want a tan because you feel too pale or if it’s summer, apply a self-tanner instead of laying out in the sun to tan. Tanning will prematurely age your skin whether you do it with the sun or in a tanning bed.

Botox

If you are noticing that your crow’s feet are starting to really show, then it might be time to turn to Botox. This can help revitalize your skin and the expression lines around the outside of your eyes. A pro about opting for Botox is that the side effects are very minimal, so you can quickly do a session during your lunch break if need be.

Cleanse

You want to clean your skin gently rather than always scrubbing it. Scrubbing it every day will irritate your skin which will accelerate your skin aging. Instead, you want to wash gently to remove makeup and pollution, so that you don’t irritate it.

We also recommend washing your face twice per day and always washing after sweating heavily. When you sweat, it will irritate your skin, which is why you want to wash it as soon as possible after you sweat. After you cleanse apply a moisturizer to help trap the water in your skin and make your skin more youthful.

If you ever notice that one of your skin care products is burning or stinging your skin – stop using it immediately. Burning and stinging means that your skin is irritated, and this will make you look older.

Drink Water

You need to drink plenty of water in order to flush your skin with any harmful toxins. Make it a habit to sip water every few minutes throughout the entire day. If drinking water is difficult for you, put reminders on your phone for your water drinking schedule.

Staying hydrated will keep your skin moist and it will also give you a nice natural glow.

Stop Smoking

For those that have the nasty habit of smoking, now is the time to stop if you want to have more youthful skin. Smoking releases plenty of free radicals which will speed up the aging of the skin. Smoking will also cause a sallow complexion and plenty of wrinkles around the mouth area.

Exercise

You also want to do moderate exercise most days of the week. Adding this to your routine will help boost your immune system and it will also improve your circulation. This will end up giving your skin a more youthful appearance.

Healthy Diet

What you eat will affect your skin, so it is a good idea to eat a healthy and well-balanced diet. Eating plenty of fruits and veggies will help prevent damage that will lead to premature skin aging.

If you eat too much sugar, this can lead to aging faster than those that don’t have much sugar in their diet. The reason is that sugar breaks down the elastin and collagen in the skin which in turn will keep your cells from repairing themselves.
