How to Protect Your Skin from Aging

It is common and hard truth that we can’t stop aging, but we can surely protect your skin from premature aging. Some people develop early signs of aging when they are still young. These symptoms can be treated very effectively to get a skin that looks healthy and young.

There are many things that you can do protect your skin from wrinkles and spots that start appearing due to aging.

1.    Avoid direct contact with sun. Your skin is very sensitive towards the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun. These rays cause cell damage making the skin dry and dry skin gets wrinkles very fast. So use good sunscreens if you are getting exposed to the sun. It’s better to cover the body areas with cotton clothes if you are under the sun for a long time.

2.    Maintain Moisture, Moisture is essential to maintain that glow on your skin. Always keep your skin moisturized by applying moisturizers. You need to keep the skin properly moisturized because moisture protects the skin from wrinkles. Oily skin never develops wrinkles, but dry skin is highly prone to get wrinkles.

3.    Remove make-up while go on bed; never go to sleep with your make-up. Make-up contains chemicals which can damage your skin cells and decrease their elasticity resulting in rashes. So always remove it before going to sleep. Use a good cleanser that can give you deep root cleaning.

4.    Cleaner & Lotions, If you have developed spots as a result of aging, use alpha-hydroxy cleansers and lotions. These helps to minimize the age spots. Some creams such as Ambi or Esoterica help in regaining the original colour of your skin.

5.    Skin & dehydration, drinking plenty of water is another method to replenish your skin with lost moisture. Water has a hydrating property. It prevents drying of the skin and also maintains its elasticity. It also helps in cleaning of the skin pores.

6.    Drinking and smoking, avoid excessive drinking and smoking as they corrode your skin making it dull and life-less.

7.    Take anti-oxidants in the form of vitamin A, C and E. These anti-oxidants act on free radicals that cause major skin damage resulting in loosening of skin.

8.    Stress and depression too have some role in pre-mature aging. So avoid them as much as you can.

9.    Take a good sleep as skin cells grow and repair themselves while sleeping. Skin feels fresh and it breaths after you have taken a good sleep.

10. Diet, Remember that what contributes most to your radiant or chapped skin is your regular diet. So, concentrate on intake of material nutrients, anti-oxidants & apt amount of hydration
