What helps with wrinkles?
Wrinkles are common, especially as we age, our skin begins to lose its elasticity and ability to bounce back. But no worries, there are ways to minimise the appearance of wrinkles and get your face glowing! Often wrinkles can also occur because of overexposure from the sun, smoking and dehydration. They have many causes, but there are also many ways to reduce them. Do you want to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, but don’t know how? No worries let’s go through exfoli-education together!
1. Daily Skincare Routine
If there’s one thing your skin loves more than anything, it’s consistency! It’s more beneficial to do a bit of skincare daily rather than hours of masks and peels every couple of months. And skincare routines don’t have to complicated with lots of expensive products, let’s get to the pore point shall we!
Firstly, we want to start off with a gentle cleanser, water-based if your skin tends to be acne-prone and oily or oil-based if you skin is quite dry and sensitive. This removes any dirt, grease or dust from your face, allowing you to start the day with a clean, fresh face. After drying with a small towel, apply your necessary serums. Hyaluronic acid is the perfect serum for working on the appearance of wrinkles as it promotes soft tissue growth, encourages collagen and elastin and keeps your skin moisturised. Equally a collagen serum is also great for strengthening elasticity in your skin. An unusual but popular serum containing snail secretion is also a great skincare product for hydration and bringing a youthful glow to your face! Following serums, a daily moisturiser should be applied. Depending on your skin type, apply a light, medium or rich moisturiser and top this off with a SPF cream. It can be easily to forget about sun protection when living in ever cloudy London, but it is still important!
Let’s face it, skincare isn’t just down to products, a bad diet, frequent smoking habit and an inability to manage stress can also lead to more wrinkles and fine lines. Avoiding unhealthy food, cutting back on nicotine intake and learning to manage stress are all as effective as putting on a serum.
