So in this article we will have a look at what causes wrinkles, and what you need to do to either prevent them or get rid of them.
- The SunIf you are smart, you use a sunscreen or wear a hat when you are in the sun.
Even better, wear both.
Certainly this will help protect your skin, but it is only a part of the whole sad picture. - The AtmosphereWrinkles are also caused by things that are in the air.
Things you can't see that can irritate and age your skin.
This includes pollens, dirt, exhaust, and hundreds of other pollutants.
However we will take a look further down at how you can minimise the effects of air pollution.
- Your dietAnother wrinkle causing culprit is poor diet.
Women ideally should get all the vitamins and nutrients needed for healthy skin from their food.
Unfortunately most busy women today do not have that diet.
Busy schedules and dieting can wreak havoc on your complexion.
Many people take a water bottle everywhere they go and seem to think this will hydrate their skin.
Water is terrific, but water alone will not prevent wrinkles.
Without receiving essential nutrients every day your skin will over time lose elastin and collagen.
The lack of anti-oxidants in your diet will also seriously affect your skin. - SmokingSmoking cigarettes has a profound effect on your skin.
Over time the skin becomes "leathery" in appearance and takes on a yellowish hue.
During this process, the wrinkles appear.
Smoking is one of the more serious causes of old looking facial skin.
An anti-wrinkle cream is a good place to start the war against aging.
Use it day and night to protect your skin from atmospherical damage.
Look for a natural cream with nourishing nutrients and antioxidants that are easily absorbed by the skin.
It must contain ingredients to stimulate your body to produce elastin and collagen.
There should be no waxes or fillers in the list of ingredients.
To be effective it needs to nourish, restore, and revitalize the skin.
It should not add oil.
The skin around the eyes is very susceptible to wrinkles.
It is thin and fragile.
Skin cells in this area contain fewer oil glands which make it an easy place for dry skin to occur.
To keep from falling victim to wrinkles around your eyes you must use extra protection.
Moisturizing products that are made for other areas of your body may not be suitable for the sensitive eye area.
You need to pick a product especially formulated for the sensitive eye tissue, as well as a product that will not harm your vision.
So when you pick a new wrinkle cream be sure it is safe for the eye area.
All skin care treatments should contain natural vitamin E.
Especially wrinkle creams for the eye area.
This vitamin is important for skin regeneration, and restoring the youthful appearance of your eyes.
It can help soften and smooth wrinkles and make them appear less visible.
By using a quality skin care product now you will have less of a problem to deal with as you get older.
