Don’t know how to prevent wrinkles? We can’t stop the aging process, but we really can look as young as we feel. Even though wrinkles can be caused by heredity, there are some ways to avoid wrinkles and keep your skin youthful. 

1. Be Gentle
   It is not ideal to use extremely hot water to wash your skin. This will remove natural oils from your skin and cause some of the skin cells to be damaged. It is also not recommended to rub your face with towels and washcloths, as well as scrub the face too harshly. One way to prevent wrinkles is to use gentle cleansers, rinse with lukewarm water and then pat the skin dry. Treat yourself to Eumora Moor Bar that will clean your skin while still making it healthy. 

2. Exfoliate Regularly
   It may sound harsh towards your skin, but not necessarily. Some gentle exfoliates are available in the market. You can even make your own using salt, fine sugar or ground oatmeal. If done correctly, regular exfoliation can keep skin healthier and help to remove dead skin cells, instead of being harsh abrasives.

3. Moisturize Daily
   It is a good idea to use a light nontoxic moisturizer daily. It also beneficial to apply moisturizer to clean skin at night. There is all-in-one make-up that combines coverage and hydration. Alternatively, you can  apply moisturizer under your make-up. Consider oils instead of lotions and creams for moisturizing, e.g. coconut oil, argan oil and olive oil. Google to find out which oil is right for your skin type.

4. Stay Safe in the Sun
   Wear sunscreen and always apply a generous amount. Skimping on your application is a big mistake to make. Most people know that exposure to sun will result in wrinkled, fissured and leathery look on your skin. People with fair skin can also get sun-induced wrinkles. Your skin gets dry easily when exposed to sun due to the potentially damaging free radicals, and this develops wrinkles. Sun exposure also darkens or may even induce freckles, age spots and other discoloration.

5. Make-Up Light
   Another way to avoid wrinkles is to keep your make-up light and gentle. This prevents rubbing and scrubbing to get the make-up off your skin, and reduces the harsh chemicals and dyes from sitting on your skin all day. Your body will treat some substances found in conventional make-up toxic, and these toxins, if stay on your skin for too long hours each day, tend to cause wrinkles.

6. Eat Well
   To have younger and more radiant skin, it is important to have a healthy diet that include lots of antioxidants. Fresh fruits and vegetables and/or their juices have antioxidants to fight cell damage caused by radical molecules. Another important step to keeping wrinkles at bay would be to include healthy fats in your diet. Eat more fish, especially salmon. In general, a healthy lifestyle will aid in promoting smooth skin.
