避开一些让人早衰的生活习惯

Stop sleeping on a cotton pillowcase

 

One easy change people can make is investing in silk pillowcase instead of cotton as the material often results in people waking up with creases¹ on their face.

 

'Many people sleep on their face, which can cause sleep lines or wrinkles. I love silk pillowcases - they can help with this,' dermatologist² Marie Jhin said.

 

The added benefit of buying a silk pillowcase is that it helps stop hair breakage as well.

Avoid multitasking

 

With people having increasingly busy schedules sometimes multitasking can't be avoided, but it isn't beneficial to your health.

 

When people multitask, their body experiences higher amounts of stress, which is causing people to age faster.

 

Stop overusing central air and heating systems

 

Overusing these systems can unfortunately dry out people's skin, which can make fine lines and wrinkles more noticeable.

 

Dry skin can also lead to inflammation. As people age they lose collagen and elastin in their skin and inflammation unfortunately accelerates this process.

 

Don't cut out fats from your diet

 

Although people should limit how often they pick up a packet of chips there is no need to avoid monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which are 'healthy'.

 

'Fats have been demonized but we actually need them - they're building blocks for hormones³ and are responsible for cell membrane⁴ integrity, and getting enough good fats can result in healthy, glowing skin,' Deepa Verma, M.D. said.

 

Avoid sipping⁵ your drink through a straw

 

Repeated facial expressions and movements, like squinting⁶, will break down collagen and elastin fibres in the face.

 

Although straws may help avoid teeth stains and minimize cavities, they can form wrinkles around the mouth.

 

Stop spraying perfume on your neck

 

When it comes to applying perfume the public has been told for years to spritz it on their neck, wrists and décolletage.

 

Unfortunately spraying the neck should be avoided as the skin in this area is extremely delicate.

 

Make sure to cleanse⁷ after removing your makeup⁸

 

People shouldn't rely solely⁹ on cleansers to take makeup off completely.

 

Dermatologist Debra Jaliman said that people need to remove their makeup before they make the decision to cleanse their face.

 

Stop using hot water

 

You should avoid splashing your face with warm water as although it may feel good, it can strip the skin of essential moisture and oils.

 

Instead rinse¹⁰ your face with lukewarm water and splash yourself several times. Pat dry with a towel.
