How To Keep Your Face Looking Great

Apply a moisturizer with an SPF of at least 15 every day, and if you spend a large part of your day outdoors, apply an additional sunscreen—again, with an SPF of at least 15—every two hours.

During the day, avoid touching your face with your hands or anything else that could spread grease and bacteria.

Avoid smoking. Nicotine can diminish the blood—and thus oxygen—that flows to the skin, and smoking can lead to pronounced “crow’s feet” and wrinkled, sallow skin.

Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. When the body dries out, it pulls moisture from the skin.

Eat foods rich in antioxidants, like blueberries, which combat wrinkles by reducing free radicals. Fruits high in vitamin C, such as oranges, help build collagen, which keeps skin firm.

If you’re wearing heavy eye makeup, make sure you use a cotton ball or pad soaked in eye makeup remover to wipe it off before bed.

Again, wash your face with warm water and a non-comedogenic facial cleanser, then pat it dry with a towel and apply an alcohol-free toner.

Before hitting the pillow, apply a moisturizer or a night cream with retinol—a type of vitamin A that encourages cell renewal—according to the product instructions.
