1. Put an End to Some Nasty Habits
Alcohol and tobacco are some of the worst toxins you can put into your body, and while we are all aware of the dangerous health risks, we don't often stop to think about how these substances age us. But yes, indeed, alcohol and nicotine damage healthy tissues in the body and lead to rapid aging, wrinkles and less than healthy looking skin. In just a few short weeks after putting an end to some nasty habits you will begin to see a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and healthier skin in general.
2. Feed Your Skin Olive Oil
Olive oil may be the Earth's most versatile oil, as it looses fewer nutrients than other oils when cooked, it is the easiest oil to digest and it helps whiten teeth and harden nails. Olive oil even reduces the risks of heart disease, protects the bones, veins and arteries, delays aging of the brain, and yes, prevents and reduces wrinkles. Ingesting about 3 tsp. of olive oil each day will help to keep your skin strong and supple, but it can also be used topically to prevent and reduce wrinkles as well as combat acne. Apply a small amount of olive oil to a cotton ball and massage into the skin every night before bed.
3. Wrinkle Free With Omega 3
Fish, particularly salmon, albacore tuna, herring, mackerel and sardines have two powerful anti-aging properties; protein and omega 3. Proteins are the building blocks of healthy skin and fish is one of the healthiest sources. Additionally, omega 3, an essential fatty acid found in fish oil, nourishes the skin, helping to keep it soft, elastic, youthful and wrinkle free. Eat fish two or three times a week and take 2 g of fish oil supplements daily to help reduce and prevent wrinkles.
4. Sweet as Honey, Soft as Silk
Honey has natural anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties and also works as a gentle moisturizer, helping to clear acne without the use of drying, chemical products while keeping skin soft and wrinkle free. Making a honey mask is as easy as dipping your fingers into the jar and spreading the sweet nectar evenly over your skin. Allow the honey to set for at least 15 minutes before rinsing with warm water and patting dry. Honey facial masks can be used as often as desired.
5. Battling Wrinkles With Sunblock
The sun is not only one of the largest culprits in wrinkled skin, it is also one of the most difficult to avoid. Even on rainy or overcast days, harmful UV rays reach your skin and cause it to age prematurely. Use sunscreen with a minimum 15 SPF every day, reapplying when necessary to help reduce and prevent wrinkles.
