7 habits of young looking people

Source: FreeDigitalPhotos.net
Like it or not, aging is a rite of passage that everyone goes through. With every birthday, we get wiser, but it also comes with a few more fine lines, or wrinkles. We've all met the lucky guy or gal who's in their 50's but looks 30. Are they just born with fountain of youth skin? Or do they know some secret that we don't? It turns out, there are some simple ways to prevent premature aging. No, I'm not talking about some $100 per bottle magic elixir. Here are some tips to get you started on the road to fabulous skin and looking good today and 10 years down the road!

1. Wear sunscreen and avoid tanning salons. UV rays are the number one cause of skin aging. Both UVA and UVB rays contribute to cell damage, protect yourself from both by wearing a natural non-toxic full-spectrum sunscreen. This means inside the car and in the winter too. And don't forget to apply on hands and necks, those are the most often overlooked spots for sunscreen, and first places to show signs of aging. 

2. Don't smoke. It's proven beyond a shadow of doubt that smoking causes wrinkles, oh, and cancer and heart disease too. Nicotine causes narrowing of the blood vessels so skin is starved of oxygen and nutrients. Also the facial expressions when you smoke can contribute to wrinkles.


3. Sleep on a silk pillowcase. Believe it or not, the weight of your head resting on your face can worsen existing wrinkles. Since we spend about one third of our life sleeping, the damage can quickly add up. Pure silk pillows are smooth and breathable, therefore less likely to cause sleep creases. It's also gentler on hair too!

4. Eat your vegetables and fruits. It's been shown that a diet rich in vegetables, beans, olive oil, and fish leads to significantly younger looking skin compared to a diet rich in sugar, milk, and butter. We don't need a double blind scientific study to figure out that a healthy diet leads to a healthy person. Since skin is a reflection of overall health, younger skin is a natural result of a healthy diet!

5. Handle gently. Excessive force and harsh chemicals during washing, drying, and application of creams can stretch delicate skin causing wrinkles and loss of elasticity. Splash your face with lukewarm water and a use a gentle no-toxin cleanser. Exfoliate once or twice a week with a clean wet cotton wash cloth or a soft particle face scrub. Avoid crushed walnut shell or apricot kernels, they are too harsh and can cause microtears. To dry, rest a dry cotton wash cloth on your face, do not wipe since wet skin is especially vulnerable to stretching. Also be sure to use your ring fingers to apply facial and eye creams to avoid using too much force.

6. Wear sunglasses with the best UV protection possible. Sunglasses not only protect delicate eye area from sun damage, prevent cataracts, they also cut down on squinting, which can lead to eye wrinkles as well. Be sure to pick a pair that blocks out at least 95% of UVA and UVB rays. Pick a wrap-around style for maximum coverage.

7. Exercise your face. Facial exercises help tone facial muscles, leading to smoother looking skin. Don't over do it though, once a day is enough. Gentle facial massages stimulate circulation and tones muscles too, and it feels so good!

  14. Thanks for sharing. I like and appreciate your idea of sharing such information with us.. By the time passing, every person gets older and skin abilities are no able to correct broken or damaged skin tissue. So, wrinkles look under the eyes, hands and even on the forehead. This is a normal age cycle but many people have not accepted whatever related to aging. so visit our website skin aging
