If you are afraid that your facial area would be lined with wrinkles in the years to come, it is important that you take care of your face as early as today. You can find a number skin products that you can use to prevent wrinkles. Here are some facial treatments that you can use:
Facial creams
If you want to prevent wrinkles, use lotion or face creams with active ingredients like AHA. An alpha-hydroxyl acid is one type of Vitamin A. It can help in removing dead cells on the surface of the skin. These types of product can also product collagen which can help in filling in wrinkles. AHA can also prevent free radicals that can do harm to your skin.
But it is important that you pick a skin product that is suitable for your skin. AHA may cause some people to have skin irritation. What you can do is to test the product that you are about to buy on a small portion of your skin, then observe the reaction of your skin. If it turns red, then it may cause skin irritation and you should discontinue its use.
AHAs can sometimes cause irritation, try rubbing a little of the product on a small patch of skin behind an ear first. If the patch doesn't turn red by the next day, the moisturizer is safe for you to use.
Exfoliate regularly
You can do skin exfoliation twice a week. This would help remove the dry, dead skin cells on your skin. By doing so, you would encourage the production of newer and healthier skin.
Fruit for the skin
There are certain fruits that you can use that can help your prevent wrinkles. One popular choice is aloe vera because of its moisturizing properties. You can also use papayas, which is a good anti-wrinkle treatment, because it contains enzymes that can etch the top layer of the skin to give way to better skin growth. Avocado is another recommended anti-wrinkle treatment because it contains Vitamin E, a type of antioxidant that can help in flushing out toxins and unwanted substances out of your body.
Watch your diet
Your diet and your lifestyle speak a lot about the health of your skin. It is important that you always have a balanced diet. Don’t forget to add fruits and vegetables in your meals. Smoking is a definite no-no and you should see to eat that you always have enough rest. Drinking lots of water can also help in keeping in moisture in your body which is very beneficial to your skin.
