Wrinkles are a natural part of the aging process, but there are steps you can take to prevent them from forming too early or becoming too pronounced.
Here are a few tips to help keep your skin looking smooth and youthful:
Protect your skin from the sun
Ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun can damage the skin and accelerate the formation of wrinkles. Use sunscreen with at least SPF 50, and reapply it every two hours when you're spending time outdoors.
This couldn't be more important here in Australia where our UV rays are the 2nd highest in the world behind New Zealand.
Don't smoke
Smoking can cause wrinkles around the mouth and eyes, and can also contribute to the formation of age spots. If you smoke, quitting is one of the best things you can do for your skin.
Moisturise your skin
Keeping your skin moisturised can help prevent wrinkles from forming. Use a moisturiser that is appropriate for your skin type (oily, dry, or combination) and apply it every day.
Eat a healthy diet
Eating a diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can help keep your skin looking healthy and youthful.
A plant-based diet is rich in antioxidants, vitamin C and lysine which can boost your collagen levels at a cellular level and can help with things like stretch marks and other skin related ageing.
Get enough sleep.
Getting enough sleep is important for overall health, and it can also help keep your skin looking young. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep each night.
Exercise regularly
Regular exercise can help improve circulation and keep your skin looking youthful.
Avoid stress
Stress can cause wrinkles to form, so try to find ways to relax and reduce stress in your life.
Use anti-aging skincare products
There are many anti-aging skincare products available that can help prevent wrinkles. Look for products that contain retinoids, antioxidants, or peptides.
Boost your NAD+ Levels
By simply following a healthy diet and exercising regularly you'll be increasing your NAD+ levels over the average consumer but taking an NAD+ booster like NMN, NR or simply nicotinamide can help with skin cell repair which will leave your face looking fresher and younger.
By following these super simple tips, you can help prevent wrinkles from forming and keep your skin looking youthful. Remember that it's never too early or too late to start taking care of your skin, so start today and you'll be on your way to a lifetime of beautiful, wrinkle-free skin.
