Wear sunscreen! Daily use of sunscreen, even in
winter months, helps prevent sunburn. Sunburn leads to premature aging of the
skin, and can lead to skin cancer. Wearing a broad spectrum SPF 30
sunscreen will block out up to 97% of UVA and UVB rays. Wearing a sunscreen
with moisturiser will keep your skin hydrated in the winter months to maintain
that healthy look and feel.
Eat a well-balanced diet. Vitamin A helps reduce
wrinkles, Vitamin B3 reduces redness and hydrates the skin, Vitamin E moisturises
the skin, Vitamin B1 gives your skin the glow you desire, and silica improves
the skin's elasticity and heals wounds.
Exercise regularly. Sweating from a workout is the
body's natural way of eliminating toxins that may build up below the skin's
surface. You also pump up your blood flow which improves the skin's look.
Avoid tanning. Whether at a tanning salon or under
the summer sun, tanning results in the premature aging of your skin.
Clean your face each night removing makeup while
moisturising the skin.
Take short, cooler showers. Long and hot showers
reduce the skin's moisture and protective oils.

Plug in the humidifier at night. Not only is a
humidifier great for helping you get over a cold but it also keeps the room
moisturised to help prevent dry skin and itchy skin.
Avoid smoking and limit alcohol to one drink.
Smoking ages the skin significantly. This happens because smoking speeds up the
reduction of collagen resulting in more wrinkles. Alcohol dehydrates the skin
making drinkers look older and more tired than non-drinkers. When drinking
alcohol be sure to drink plenty of water to keep the skin hydrated.
Get a good night's sleep. Sleeping 8 hours is
optimal for keeping the skin looking fresh. Lack of sleep makes an individual
look tired and older leaving you with bags under your eyes. Regular exercise
also helps your body become tired more naturally.
Visit a dermatologist. Have a dermatologist take a
look at your skin and check for moles. You can ask them for more information
about how you can better take care of your skin.
You only need about 10 minutes of unprotected sun exposure to get your daily dose of Vitamin D, which you get even without trying. Most people get those 10 minutes of sun exposure on the arms and legs anyway, because people often don't remember.
