HOW YOU CAN AVOID SOME WRINKLES


1. Establish a skin care routine.
2. A good skin routine will help you to retain moisture and elasticity.
3. Wear sunscreen.
Ultraviolet (UV) rays are harmful to the skin. Too much sun increase the wrinkles process. Also wear a hat.
4. Avoid tanning salons.
Don't assume the tanning salon is safer then exposure to direct sunlight. You are still being exposed
to UV rays, and at a higher concentration that direct sunlight.
5. Stop smoking.
Toxins in smoking agents cause skin damage. Researched shows that smokers wrinkles at the young age.
6. Avoid weight fluctuations.
Weight fluctuations causes your skin to stretch and contract. Skin loses elasticity as you age and can bounce back, after each fluctuation.
7. Drink water.
Keep you body hydrated. Drinking plenty of water will help flush out toxins.
8. Eat right
Good nutritious affect the skin and can have a positive affect on preventing wrinkles.
9. Wear sunglasses
Wearing sunglasses will help you squint less. Squinting creates folds around the eye that can
become permanent.
10. Relax you face muscles.
Grimacing, furrowing the brows, jaw clenching all contribute to facial wrinkles.
11. Get a facial massage.
A facial massage will help to keep elasticity in the skin and keep wrinkles and fine lines at a bay.
A facial massage will stimulate blood flow and circulation in the facial area. Increased blood flow stimulates the skin and helps to keep it renewed and rejuvenated.

Tips to reduce the Appearance of Wrinkles
a) Use the Anti-aging cream or lotion
Wrinkles creams increase the volume of tissue cells and smoothes out the wrinkles or line.
But wrinkles creams cannot eliminate deep wrinkles.
b) Get a Chemical or Mechanical Peel.
A chemical peel is technique designed to remove the dead skin cells from the skin surface layer and re-stimulate the regenerative process.

Can Botox prevent Wrinkles?
Botox cannot prevent wrinkles. Botox injections will temporally reduce the appearance or wrinkles.

What Ingredients you should Avoid, for you skin tendency


Ingredients in a skin care product work in the same way as ingredients in a food recipe. For example, in baking, butter richens up a cookie recipe (believe it or not, avocado could even be used as a healthier fat substitute) in the same way that shea butter or fatty acids enrich a face cream. All the various ingredients, whether in a cake or in a cleanser, must combine to create a harmonious whole.

Most ingredients not only benefit the skin in some way but also perform on or more big jobs that keep the product’s delivery system intact.

What ingredients do?

- They moisturize, using humectants and emollient,

- They bind, holding other ingredients together,

- They emulsify, blending oil and water substances together in a smooth formula,

- They thicken or smooth, making a formula richer or able to glide on more easily,

- They preserve, preventing the product from deteriorating, and harboring bacteria,

- They adjust the pH balance, acting as a butter to stabilize acids and bases,

We have different kinds of skin type, so every type of skin should avoid different ingredients for that type of skin.

Oily Acne-prone skin type should avoid ingredients like:

Shea butter, mineral oil, Lanolin, Petrolatum, Paraffin, Beeswax, Squalene, Oils, Silicones, Palmitates, Titanium dioxide, Zinc oxide,

Dry skin type should avoid ingredients like:

Isopropyl alcohol, Sodium chloride, Sodium lauryl sulfate, Sodium laureth sulfate, Ammonium lauryl sulfate, Salicylic acid, Willow bark, AHA acids,

Sensitive skin type should avoid ingredients like:

Isopropyl alcohol, Sodium chloride, Sodium lauryl sulfate, Sodium laureth sulfate, Ammonium lauryl sulfate, Salicylic acid, Willow bark, AHA acids, Avobenzone, Octinoxate, Octisalate, Homosalate, Oxybenzone, Octocrylene,

So, if you look for some interesting and good quality company from the counter I like personally NEUTROGENA, some AVENNO products, CETAPHIL that product my dermatologist prescribe, also ALBA. Everything you can buy in TARGET or any different store. Good look with the shopping I hope you will find right product for you type of skin. Also check on my blog I mentioned early for TYPE OF SKIN.
