Use umbrella, scarves or any other protective cover when going out in sun. Get adequate sleep. Sleeping position is also important. Try to sleep on your back, as it prevents wrinkle formation. Sleeping on sides may cause wrinkles on chin and cheek and sleeping with face-down will result in furrowed brow. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. They have anti-oxidants that help fight damage caused by free radicals. They keep skin younger and radiant. Drink lots of water during the day to provide optimum supply of moisture to the skin. Do not over-wash your face. Washing face too often removes skin off its natural barrier oils and moisture that protect against wrinkles. Switch to green tea. Green tea has anti-inflammatory, anti-ageing, and healing effects on skin which helps in skin rejuvenation. Get a humidifier. Dry skin contributes to wrinkles. Humidifiers are inexpensive and will moisten the air that is usually dried out by air conditioners and heaters. Exercise your face. Many wrinkles are caused by the skin staying immobile for long periods of time. By doing regular expression exercises, you will increase the elasticity in your skin and reduce wrinkle.
