Everyday ways to keep your skin healthy and fight the signs of ageing
The 5 major causes of pre-mature ageing are:
The sun: Always ensure you use an SPF daily. It is estimated that 80-99% of what we see on our skin as adults is a result of exposure to daylight. This is referred to as photoageing. Photoageing manifestations include wrinkles, loss of tension and elasticity, degeneration of skin thickness, dilated capillaries and hyperpigmentation.
Lack of sleep/Stress: At night when you're sleeping, your body takes this opportunity to refuel and rejuvenate. Without sleep, your body isn't able to do this, not only affecting you internally but also on the skin's surface. Similarly, stress can cause us to age and often lead to break outs and other skin problems.
Smoking, lack of exercise/poor diet: It makes sense that what you put into your body really does show on the outside. You need to eat healthy for your skin to reflect this. There are some great foods that help fight the signs of ageing. These are foods which are rich in antioxidants. Other lifestyle factors such as smoking and lack of exercise impact on your skin too, in similar ways to having a poor diet.
Exposure to the elements: Exposing your skin to harsh conditions can cause havoc on your skin. Make sure you always wear protective masks and moisturisers when being exposed to extreme temperatures.
An ideal skin regimeAn effective premature-ageing or mature skin treatment regime should include exfoliation, hydration and vitamins to help smooth skin, stimulate collagen production and increase skin's natural protective barrier.
Exfoliation is a very important part of this regime, and is recognised by skin care professionals as one of the most effective treatments for addressing skin ageing.
There are some great products on the market at the moment that effectively fight the signs of ageing.
