Skin aging is a long-term process. From noticing the first facial wrinkles to the formation of prominent furrows, as well as a significant loss of firmness, even several decades pass.
To answer the question of how to delay skin aging, it is necessary to realize what influences this process. A number of external and internal factors directly affect the appearance of the skin, regardless of its biological age. Great influence is exerted by weather conditions, sunlight, diet and lifestyle. If we frequent sunbathing, do not drink enough water, and our diet is poor in nutrients and vitamins, we will very quickly notice the first signs of aging on the skin of our face and body.
If you want to delay the aging process of your skin, all you need to do is follow a few basic rules.
Use antioxidants
Antioxidants contained in cosmetic products effectively protect the complexion from the negative effects of sunlight, which is responsible for photoaging of the skin and the formation of hyperpigmentation.
Use sunscreens
If you want a beautiful complexion, remember to use creams with SPF- daily, regardless of the season. UV radiation leads to faster skin aging and DNA damage in cells. A good cream with SPF is your best weapon in the fight against wrinkles.
Follow a healthy, well-balanced diet
The results of a number of studies suggest that eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables can help prevent the damage that leads to premature skin aging.
Quit smoking
Smoking significantly accelerates the aging process of the skin. It promotes wrinkles and can cause a dull, sallow complexion.
Gently cleanse your skin
Prolonged, overly aggressive cleansing of the face can negatively affect its appearance. Use products that effectively and gently remove makeup, such as Swiss H2O Gel.
Moisturize your skin
A good moisturizer is the basis of care for any skin type regardless of age. Make sure that the cosmetic you choose has the right composition, which includes moisturizing substances, such as hyaluronic acid, which has been recognized as one of the best active ingredients for moisturizing and protecting the skin from dehydration.
Introduce retinol into your skincare routine
Thanks to it, the acid responsible for cell renewal is produced in the body, which has a direct effect on delaying skin aging.
