Some of us don't have the big bucks for plastic surgery of injections. The good thing is, we don't necessarily need expensive procedures to have beautiful, healthy, young looking skin. Here are a few tips that you can apply to your daily skin regimen.
Cut out the sugar. There are probably a million reasons for this tip, but when it comes to aging, sugar is a serious issue. Too much sugar can cause wrinkles and premature aging by a process called glycation. Glycation causes collagen and elastin to harden, making your skin dry and sensitive to the sun, the one thing we always want to avoid. Even though this happens all over your body, it's more than obvious on your face. Need I say more?
Apply your products in the right order. To allow for better penetration, apply your lighter creams and lotions before your heavier ones. In fact, the proper way to layer your product is toner (alcohol-free, please), serum, anti-aging products, moisturizers, and lastly, your SPF.
