Get rid of these daily habits that affect skin aging.
From all parts of your body, face, neck and hands can show your real age. Moreover, if you do not properly care for the skin, it will age faster than they could. To slow down the aging process enough to stick with a balanced diet, exercise and use sunscreen. There are quite a lot of other ways you can accelerate the aging process of the face, without even noticing it.
Want to look younger? Get rid of the following habits:
1. Drink water and smoothies through a straw
Pursing the lips to draw liquid through a straw, you are accelerating the aging face. All year sipping cocktails through a straw can cause premature wrinkles around the mouth and deep trenches in the area of nasolabial folds. Even Smoking wrinkles around the lips do not appear so quickly.
2. Set the thermostat at a high temperature
Hot, dry air literally pulls moisture out of your face. So the skin becomes dry, tight and may appear inflamed and peeling. All of this leads to accelerated aging of the face. Set the thermostat to normal room temperature (above 20 degrees). Not for nothing do they say that the cold helps to preserve youth. If you can’t stand the heat, buy a humidifier.
3. Sleeping on the stomach (or on one side!)
Shoving face in pillow, you create additional pressure on the skin, which naturally will give you wrinkles. To sleep on one side of the face, too bad. The skin from one side of the face is in a relaxed state, at that time, as the skin on the other side of the face is pressurized. So there are more wrinkles on one side of the face. Over time, it will also make your lashes from one side (where you sleep) are more rare and short.
4. A diet low in fat
Fat is needed for proper fat metabolism of the body. Therefore, to get rid of all fats in the diet was a stupid idea. Polyunsaturated fats are found in olive, coconut, linseed and sesame oil, as well as in fish, help keep skin supple and healthy. In addition, they do not harm the figure. In contrast, polyunsaturated fats accelerate the metabolism and help remove toxins.
5. Use sunscreen only at the beach
UV rays can harm you even beyond the beach. After all, the sun never ceases to Shine! Therefore, it is important to protect the skin not only in summer but all year round. Let autumn and winter the skin protects the clothes, but about the face and neck should not be forgotten. Apply sunscreen over your regular day cream every morning. This will help to preserve youthfulness and to prevent the appearance of wrinkles and age spots.
In addition to these habits, there are several factors that can accelerate aging. And chief among them is lack of fluid in the body. Drink at least 2 litres of water a day and you will look young and fresh.
