Preventing wrinklesWhat to do when wrinkles appear?! How to control and even slow its arrival. Here, six steps to prevent them:

1) Keep the skin well hydrated.
When the skin is one of the last parts of the body to be “stocked” water “loses the power to retain moisture, dry and wrinkled.

Therefore, it is necessary to take 6-8 glasses of water daily and avoid diuretics and caffeine.

2) Avoid the sun.
The damage caused by the sun is cumulative and irreversible (remember: “the sun has memory.”) Therefore, it is important to wear a daily basis. For best protection, apply a coat of sunscreen, wait half an hour and reapply another layer over the first.

3) No smoking.
Nicotine constricts blood vessels and decreases the amount of nutrients and oxygen reaching your skin.

4) Exercise.
Doing “something of exercise, increases circulation, improves oxygen nutrients that reach the skin and your temperature rises, causing an increase in collagen production.

5) Try not to strain your eyes.
Even on cloudy days, the sun’s rays can cause damage, like the bright lights and computer screen. If possible, try not to force a lot of your sight. Many ophthalmologists, for example, recommended anti-reflex lens or multi-layer protection from the PC. And if you wear dark glasses, looking around with a good glass, purchased from a viewpoint and not in any place and three dollars (that’s worse than not using anything).

6) Maintain a balanced diet.
Foods rich in nutrients and minerals needed for healthy skin. Consume vitamins A and C, and dairy products fortified with vitamin D.
