Almost every one of us thinks about keeping our skin young and supple for as long as possible. We spend a lot of money on expensive skin care products and miracle creams, but we negate all efforts with our bad habits that accelerate the appearance of wrinkles.
Ignore SPF creams
This problem is especially true on clear days - yes, we know you love the sun a lot, but your skin doesn't. The fact that active sunlight causes premature aging seems to tell us from every iron, but for some reason we continue to ignore the use of cream with SPF protection. You need it not only during a beach holiday, but every day, even when you just go to work. Change your habit of using the same favorite cream all year round - your skin definitely needs SPF to delay the appearance of wrinkles.
Love chewing gum
Fresh breath, as we remember from the advertising slogan, makes it easier to understand - and that's great. But if you have a habit of constantly chewing gum, then you are at risk. Endless jaw movements over time can cause early appearance of nasolabial folds and wrinkles around the mouth. Everything is simple here - if you often frown on your forehead, then wrinkles appear on it, if you constantly chew, then the skin in the mouth area also stretches. Therefore, it is better to replace chewing gum with mints or candies.
Excessive love for cleansing
Of course, there is nothing wrong with keeping your skin clean, especially if it is prone to oiliness and acne. But fans of cleansing, all kinds of scrubs, peels and brushes for washing often go over the line. How to avoid wrinkles? If you use a scrub more than 2 times a week and constantly scrub your face with tonic or lotion, it's time to stop doing it. With cosmetics, you violate the natural environment and Ph of your skin. As a result, its immunity and resistance are reduced. Moreover, you yourself do not notice how dry your face is - and this is the number one reason when it comes to the appearance of wrinkles.
Morning wash with cleanser
This is a continuation of the previous paragraph. Yes, it's perfectly fine to wash your face with a cleanser and wipe your face with micellar water at night, but why do you need it after sleep? When, excuse me, did you manage to “get dirty”? In the morning, just rinse your face with plain water at room temperature and use cosmetic ice. And that's it!
Change your pillowcase too infrequently
It's okay to change bedding once a week, but your pillowcase can be a source of danger - it accumulates the most bacteria, and that's not so bad. Hairspray, any other styling product - all this settles on the pillowcase during sleep, which means it ends up on your face. And chemical elements affect the skin and cause wrinkles under the eyes. How to prevent wrinkles? Get into the habit of changing your pillowcase every 2-3 days.
Don't get enough sleep
Lack of sleep can cause a lot of problems that you don't even know about. And one of them is premature aging. The fact is that when you do not have enough sleep, the body simply does not have time to recover - this also applies to skin cells. If you want to look stunning after 50 and push back the age of wrinkles, forget about midnight vigils - beauties should sleep at night!
Sleep in the wrong position
Another sleep-related cause of wrinkles is poor posture. Many of us love to sleep on our stomachs with our cheeks pressed into the pillow (and leave lovely pillowcase marks in the morning). Now imagine - normal blood circulation is disturbed for several hours, and the skin is in a “squeezed” state. This causes the appearance of wrinkles under the eyes and not only. To minimize the risks, train yourself to sleep on your side or on your back - not only good for the skin, but also for the cardiovascular system.
PUMPING PIMPLE
At least once this happened to each of us, despite the fact that my mother strictly forbade doing this in childhood. And the problem is not only that you risk infection, but also that during extrusion you compress and injure the skin. Then a scar or even a small wrinkle may remain in this place. Do you need it?
Not using a humidifier
If your home is too hot and dry, your skin will definitely respond to it. A humidifier is really a very important device that you should still buy and remember to turn it on (this happens too, we know).
Smoke
Here, perhaps, nothing needs to be explained? Smoking and the desire to prolong youth are incompatible. By the way, your pack also says about this reason for the appearance of wrinkles on the face.
Age of appearance of wrinkles
Wrinkles appear at different ages - this is due to hereditary predisposition. Most often this occurs between the ages of 30 and 40. But it is in your power to push back the age of wrinkles by following all the recommendations suggested above.
