10 Common Ways to delay Wrinkles

Wrinkles are one of the many signs of aging and need special attention both by men and women alike.  Women are particularly more itchy of wrinkles and spend huge amount of money to get rid of them.

The American Academy of Dermatology reports that 90-95% of the wrinkles are caused by sun exposure.

If certain measures are taken regularly, the gap between developments of wrinkles could be widened though it is not possible to remove them completely.  It is a natural process and could only be controlled to a certain limits.

Here are 10 common ways to save you from having wrinkles:

1.           Drink a lot of water.  Instead of popular concept of 6-8 glasses of water, I suggest 10-12 glasses daily on the basis of my personal experience.  This much quantity of water is also good for hydration of your skin and keeps the digestive system smooth.

2.           Protect your skin with a Sunscreen.  Choose the best moisturizer available in your area after thorough consultation with your doctor or study it on internet.

3.           Protective clothing is also essential when you go out in the sun.  Use wide brimmed hats or properly cover your head with a scarf.  Also use sunglasses to protect your eyes.

4.           Extreme and fast weight loss also causes sagging of skin that leads to wrinkles.  Follow a steady formula for losing weight.

5.           Cleansing your face in the morning and evening is a must to keep your skin healthy.

6.           Stop smoking and drinking alcohol that ages the skin permanently.  Regular exercise also increases your blood flow and keeps the whole body fit and healthy and makes your skin healthy too.

7.           Always prefer fruit and vegetables that are high in anti-oxidants over fast food.  Preferably choose that contains more vitamin A, C and E.  The latest researches indicate that natural sources of vitamins are better than supplements.

8.           Get plenty of sleep and use the techniques of relaxing your body.  Deep breathing helps you inhale required quantity of oxygen and exhale the unwanted pollutants from your body.
