Tired Of Your Skin? Have A Look At These Tips

By Marisa Asent


If you have started to notice the pass of time in your face and now have a complexion that is sagging, with crow's feet or maybe marionette lines, you are not the only one. Aging skin is one of the consequences of getting older, no one is free from it, but there are certainly many things you can try to always look your best. You should be concentrating your efforts on three areas: an effective skin care program, a healthy diet and an active lifestyle.

1- Good skin care is essential to remain looking younger as we age, take it seriously and it will pay off. To minimize aging skin there are plenty of rejuvenating products on the market today that will allow you to fight aging skin and boost the skin's complexion.

2- Dry skin is not good news for wrinkles as these will be more visible if the skin is dry. To diminish dry skin, keep the skin hydrated by drinking water and applying moisturizing products containing humectants. Humectants are great because they attract water from the air. Moisturizing masks once or twice a week are also a must to keep the skin smooth and supple.

3- One of the reasons the skin begins to sag and form wrinkles is the loss of collagen and elastin. These proteins when plentiful maintain the skin plump and elastic, but as we age their production diminish and the decadence of the skin begins. A good way to boost collagen and elastin production is by making use of appropriate skin care products and treatments that will provide the skin with a younger appearance.

4- A healthy and balanced diet is important to maintain the skin looking younger and free of blemishes. You need to incorporate plenty of foods containing antioxidants to your daily diet. Antioxidants are important to fight free radicals and enjoy good health. And they are also effective in preserving the skin from oxidation and helping to combat aging skin.

5- Effective antioxidants you can find on skin care products today include green tea and vitamins E, C and A. All vitamins play an important role in the organism, but these ones are specially good to protect the skin from skin issues related to aging. A few of their benefits to the skin include improving its texture, accelerating collagen production, repairing acne scars, helping with acne conditions, boosting elasticity, reducing stretch marks, protecting from UV light and diminishing lines and wrinkles. Green tea could also help to accelerate the metabolism and reduce body fat.

6- Using a weekly facial mask will get rid of dead cells, improving the skin's texture. To make a face mask at home full of antioxidant power mix two spoons of red wine with two spoons of honey. Apply over the areas you want to rejuvenate such as face and neck and leave for fifteen minutes. Wine contains resveratrol which is said to one of the most potent antioxidants and honey has moisturizing and anti-bacterial properties. A winning combination!

7- In order to be healthy doctors recommend practicing some kind of activity to get the heart pumping and get all the benefits associated with exercise. The best thing to avoid getting bored is to pick an activity that you enjoy. It could be something like yoga, dancing, running or simply walking. If you need motivation get together with a friend for mutual support. The key is to remain active throughout your life.

The above steps are just a small example of all the things one can do to feel healthier and look younger. I forgot to mention that is also very important to use sunscreen daily and to stop smoking. Follow these tips and feel great.
