Discover the Secret to Younger Looking Skin

Younger looking skin secrets revealed!

Smooth, perfect, younger looking skin is no longer a privilege of the wealthy. Nowadays, anyone can have a flawless complexion until later in life. There is no one secret to youthful skin. It all comes down to the choices you make every day. Smoking, stress, alcohol consumption and poor sleep affect skin health, causing premature ageing. A balanced lifestyle and good nutrition can make all the difference.

Here are some simple tips to achieve younger looking skin and slow down ageing:

Facial

Ditch Bad Lifestyle Habits

Smoking and alcohol consumption are often the culprits behind premature ageing. The chemicals in cigarette smoke increase toxic load and affect oxygen flow to your skin, which promotes the formation of wrinkles. Another common problem is sleep deprivation. Your skin heals itself at night. If you don’t get enough rest, you may experience premature ageing, sagging skin, dark spots, and dull complexion.

 

Load Up on Vitamin C

A recent study conducted on women over the age of 40 has found that those who consumed more vitamin C were less likely to develop wrinkles. This nutrient benefits your skin in a multitude of ways. It not only slows down ageing, but also boosts collagen synthesis, fights inflammation, and supports skin repair. To get more vitamin C in your diet, load up on berries, citrus fruits, cruciferous veggies, and leafy greens.

Smoothies

 

Facials and HIFU

HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) facelift treatments have proved effective in reducing the signs of ageing and encourage healthier, younger looking skin.

 

Use Quality Skin Care Products

The chemicals in makeup and personal care products are absorbed into your skin and end up in the bloodstream. Poor quality creams and lotions may cause long-term damage to the skin. Invest in a few basic products with anti-aging ingredients, such as retinol, beta-carotene, vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid. Use organic creams and treatments whenever possible.

 

Stay Hydrated

Every cell in your body needs water to survive. Your skin is over 64 percent water. Thus, proper hydration is crucial for skin health. Even the slightest dehydration can affect your complexion, energy levels, and mental focus. For young-looking skin, drink plenty of water, unsweetened tea, green smoothies, and freshly squeezed fruit juices. Rich in antioxidants, fruit-infused water is a great choice too.
