Today we'll go over five ways to address and minimize those developing fine lines and wrinkles. We’ll also go over what to do if you find yourself face-to-face with some unexpected forehead wrinkles or some undereye wrinkles after a crazy night (or three) on the town.
What Causes Wrinkles?
There's no single thing that causes wrinkles. They form through a combo that includes:
The Natural Aging Process
As you age, your skin produces less collagen and elastin, leading to a loss of elasticity and overall firmness.
Exposure to the Sun’s Harmful UV Rays
Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation accelerates this process and can cause the appearance of aging prematurely.
Repetitive Facial Expressions
Frequent facial movements, like smiling or frowning, can create fine lines that develop into wrinkles over time.
Don't worry we've got you covered for all your anti-wrinkle remedies and responses. Stick with us and you'll at least LOOK like you weren't out until 3AM.
5 Ways to Fade Wrinkles, Fine Lines, and Age Spots
1. Stay Out Of The Sun
Speaking of UV radiation, our first tip for fading wrinkles is protecting your beautiful skin from the harsh cosmic rays that bombard our planet every day. That might sound extreme but UV damage is one of the main culprits at fault for the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Prolonged unprotected sun exposure can especially be damaging. It's always a great idea to wear an SPF moisturizer as an everyday defense against Ultraviolet Radiation.
One fabulous product to keep you active outside is our Chase The Sun SPF 30 Face Moisturizer. This invisible broad spectrum SPF30 face moisturizing sunscreen is the perfect balance of keeping your skin safe, but without any of the downsides a normal sunscreen has. Instead of a dorky white residue, our natural zinc oxide formula protects against harmful UVA/UVB rays while leaving you with a dewy glowing finish. Not to mention hyaluronic acid, squalane, and aloe vera are a terrific trio of hydrating super ingredients that will keep you feeling moisturized all day. As an essential outside product, you can feel good knowing it's environmentally friendly and reef safe.
2. Treating Wrinkles Under Eyes
Even after protecting yourself from the sun, to fight off wrinkles and maintain your skin's youthful demeanor, it's absolutely essential to keep a routine with effective skincare products that nourish your skin with the right ingredients. And while all of that is true in general, the area around your eyes is especially delicate and can require a bit more specific and sensitive care.
Say goodbye to eye wrinkles and hello to radiant, youthful eyes by adding our All In Eye Cream into your daily skincare regimen. This lightweight, quick-absorbing formula will work its magic, revitalizing the skin around your eyes. Plus the relaxing cooling sensation is what makes All In Eye Cream our pick for the best eye wrinkle cream you can get.
3. Use An Advanced Anti-Aging Serum
If you've been on a mission to fade stubborn wrinkles and achieve a smoother, more youthful complexion, our Pep Rally Face Serum is the pep packed solution you've been searching for.
Pep Rally is an all-natural, botanical-based serum that works tirelessly to brighten your skin tone, plump up any fine lines, and shield your skin from free radicals. It's especially easy to fit into your skincare routine. Just apply a few drops of this upbeat anti-aging gel serum to your face and neck until it's fully absorbed and that's it. With key ingredients like calming green tea, hydrating hyaluronic acid, collagen-preserving MSM, and wrinkle-fighting vitamin C, you'll watch your skin rejuvenate as fine lines and wrinkles fade from view.
4. Use A Nighttime Anti-Aging Cream
After a serum treatment, a nighttime anti-aging cream ensures your new nocturnal skincare routine continues rejuvenating your skin as you sleep. To wake up with a fresh and radiant complexion check out our Up The Anti Anti-Aging Night Cream, an editor's pick from In Style magazine. After your serum treatment is absorbed, gently massage this night cream onto your skin. The soothing green tea scent provides a calm and serene note to your bedtime ritual.
As you rest and recuperate this anti-aging cream works its magic, replenishing and hydrating your skin, locking in moisture, and harnessing the power of natural ingredients like niacinamide, a form of Vitamin B-3 known to stimulate ceramides, elastin, and keratin production. Ceramides safeguard your skin's barrier and hydration, elastin imparts elasticity and firmness, while keratin fortifies your skin, hair, and nails. Together, these essential components promote healthy, firm, and revitalized skin, all while actively combatting the formation of wrinkles and fine lines.
5. Go to Bed
Staying out all night is fun, (well, usually!) but one of the real best things you can do to help keep a youthful appearance and reduce any lines or wrinkles is actually to get some sleep and rest! After all, nighttime serums and creams do their best while you're in hibernation mode.
Quality sleep contributes more than you'd think to a youthful appearance by promoting cellular repair, collagen production, reduced inflammation, improved blood flow, hormone balance, and stress reduction. During deep sleep, the body's skin cells regenerate, fine lines and wrinkles are minimized, and your skin benefits from increased circulation. Getting actual rest is your body's most natural and crucial component in an anti-aging skincare routine. So hit that snooze button. Waking up fresh and rested will work wonders. There's no substitute for a great night's sleep.
Take It Easy
By following these five steps you'll be on your way to fading and minimizing any pesky wrinkles that may be forming. Doing any of these things individually is a great start, and of course, combining them all together would be an excellently effective wrinkle reduction routine. If you find yourself missing out on one or more of these steps, try not to stress too much about it. Taking a step to even read this blog means you're doing great and on your way to a youthful, more radiant you, and those wrinkles will be fading from view in no time.
