Proactive skin care

 

One of the best things you can do to keep looking young and wrinkle free is a full court press on proactive skin care.  If you wait too long, it will be almost impossible to reverse the visible signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles and age spot.  But what exactly is proactive skin care?  Well our goal is to outline some specific things you can do immediately.

First, invest in a good, quality moisturizer.  These are designed to reduce water lost from the epidermis.  I won’t help you reverse the damage done by the sun but it will help prevent any further dryness.  A good moisturizer is a great proactive skin care strategy as it will also become a barrier to dirt and grime making your face look smooth and supple.

You have already heard this a thousand times before, but the sun does the most damage of anything by drying the skin and accelerating the appearance of wrinkles and lines.  The best proactive skin care method is a sun block with an SPF of 30 or more.  If you do spend a lot of time outside, make sure to drink lots of water and stay covered up.
