Smooth and radiant skin without signs of aging? Let’s not lie, that’s what everyone wants. We all want it, but few of us know how to achieve it. Although we can’t control the aging process completely, we can at least use a few little tricks to help us slow it down a bit. Dermatologists know best how to do this, so we would like to share with you some of their tips on how to keep your skin beautiful, youthful and fresh.
Sleep on a satin pillow
Sleeping on a satin pillow can prevent annoying wrinkles. Plus, the satin surface has one big advantage in that it won’t absorb any cosmetic products you put on your face every night.
Fruits and vegetables
Dermatologists have always recommended and will continue to recommend increased consumption of fruits and vegetables. Getting enough of them provides the body with many of the necessary antioxidants that are essential for getting healthy-looking skin.
Wearing headphones while on the phone
Did you know that your phone contains more germs than a toilet seat? According to dermatologists, it’s better to use a headset while on the phone than to hold your cell phone to your ear. Using headphones does not harm our skin.
Added sugars
Skip the added sugars. Sugar, plain and simple, is not good for our skin. The molecules in added sugar can cause collagen to harden, resulting in faster wrinkle formation. We know very well that it is very difficult to avoid sugar altogether, but try to at least limit it as much as possible. Here’s a list of alternative sweeteners that are considered healthier but instead contain large amounts of sugar:
- Agave nectar
- Coconut sugar
- Barberry syrup
- Med
- Maple syrup
- Cane sugar
Sun protection
On sunny summer days, apply plenty of sunscreen to your body. Of course, it’s a good idea to keep it on at all times of the year, because the sun is always and everywhere working on our skin. UV rays cause wrinkles, so remember this every time you go out.
Vitamin deficiency
To keep your skin youthful and healthy, consume plenty of vitamins, especially fish oil. In addition, B vitamins can also significantly improve the condition of your skin.
Hot shower
Do you love hot showers? It’s very soothing, but definitely not wise. A hot shower causes most of the natural oils on your skin to leave your body. In addition, you can bring inflammation to your skin and cause dry patches.
Correct beauty products
It’s important to pamper your skin every morning and night. Set a good cleansing routine. Choosing a cleansing gel, day and night cream or serum that contains the least amount of ingredients is just right for your skin. Avoid heavily perfumed products.
