3 Anti-Aging Habits
Unfortunately, we can’t stop time, but we can slow its effects on the health and appearance of our skin, which is the largest organ in the human body. We don’t always take the best care of it, whether because of our lifestyle, daily habits, or skincare choices; this could cause permanent damage.
Let’s demystify skin aging together and discover 3 easy ways to take to counter it.
What is skin aging?
Skin aging is a completely natural process that begins in our twenties. As the years go by, the migration of cells from the deepest to the superficial layer of the skin takes longer and longer. This causes, among other things, a decrease in sebum production, which protects and hydrates the skin, a loss of firmness and volume, a decrease in collagen production, which leads to the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, and an increase in pigment spots.
This process generally accelerates during menopause, but other factors can cause premature aging, such as exposure to extreme temperatures, a nutrient-poor diet, and poor lifestyle habits.
The Right Anti-Aging Steps
Protect Yourself from the Sun
We love the sun and its energizing and regenerating effects, but unfortunately, it causes a lot of damage! Repeated exposure, especially without sunscreen, triggers the production of free radicals, which lead to skin aging. Therefore, make sure to apply a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30, which protects against UVA and UVB rays. Wear it every day, summer and winter, and reapply every two hours. We also make sure to favour shaded areas and wear a hat.
Adopt good lifestyle habits
Cigarettes, alcohol, coffee, junk food… Certain lifestyle habits can have real consequences on the appearance and health of our skin. Make sure to adopt a healthy routine featuring foods rich in antioxidants and minerals, exercise every day, get enough sleep, and hydrate throughout the day. Your skin will thank you!
