Steps
-
Step 1
Eat healthy
Eat a healthy diet, loaded with antioxidant-rich vegetables and fruits.
-
Brussels sprouts, cabbage, kale, chili peppers, artichokes, berries, kiwis, and pineapple are excellent selections.
-
Step 2
Get essential fats
Get Omega-3 fatty acids, which hydrate and moisturize skin from the inside. Wild salmon, fish oil, and chia seeds are great sources.
-
Step 3
Avoid toxins
Limit or avoid aging toxins, like sugar, tobacco, and alcohol, which can lead to dull, dry skin.
-
Step 4
Limit sun exposure
Limit sun exposure. Small, short bursts are healthy, especially in the winter, but cover up when you've had enough to avoid sunburn.
-
Make sure to cover your skin in cold winds in the winter to avoid windburn as well.
-
Step 5
Maintain weight
Maintain a healthy weight. Losing and gaining too often may cause skin to wrinkle and sag.
-
Step 6
Exfoliate
Exfoliate skin to remove dead cells once or twice each week. Use skin-care products that contain hyaluronic acid, which you should apply to your face when it is damp to lock in moisture.
-
Step 7
Moisturize
Use natural moisturizers like coconut oil, which may help heal damaged skin and act as a natural sunscreen.
-
Dermatologists use 6 categories for skin types, from the lightest at type 1 to the very dark type 6.
