Hacks To Prevent Premature Ageing

1) SILK PILLOWCASES

The silk pillowcases are said to be beauty sleep's sleeping weapon, keeping hair frizz-free and skin line-free. Switch out your regular cotton pillowcases to satin or silk as this will ensure you have a slimmer chance of being too rough on your skin while you sleep, and will prevent tugging- which leads to ageing in the long run. This tip will also help keep your hair from being too frizzy or tangled because of its softer, more sleek surface.

2) SLEEP ON YOUR BACK

Ever noticed those lines you get on your face after a nap or a good night's sleep? Those temporary lines actually lead to premature ageing because of the position you're sleeping in (whether it be on your side or on your stomach). Try and sleep on your back to prolong your smooth, wrinkle-free skin as long as possible.

3) ANTI-AGEING SKINCARE

If you're noticing one or two fine lines you've never seen before, you should probably start looking at incorporating some serums and moisturisers targeted for ageing skin into your routine. This will help to keep your face and neck supple and hydrated all while allowing your skin to revitalise and regenerate healthy new cells which prevents premature ageing.

4) ANTI-AGEING FACE MASKS

Apply anti-aging masks like firming, tightening, or helps boost collagen will all allow your skin to absorb enriching ingredients for your skin's long-term benefit.

5) ALWAYS APPLY SUNSCREEN

Applying sunscreen to your skin daily is one of the best ways to prevent premature ageing. This is purely due to the harmful rays the sun give off which age your skin and exacerbate wrinkles from forming in your skin. Apply generously everyday, all over your face and neck especially, and not forgetting your ears and lips to prevent your skin from being sun damaged.

My current favourite non-sticky and non-greasy sunscreens are A'pieu Pure Block Natural Sun Cream SPF45 PA+++ and Dr. GL Sun Protection SPF30 PA++ . 

6) PAT, DON'T RUB YOUR SKIN

Never be too rough with your skin, especially when you're fresh out of the shower. This is because your skin is still wet and warm from the steam and water making it more sensitive and vulnerable to pulling and tugging. Instead of rubbing your skin dry, try patting your face gently with a soft towel to absorb any excess water so you don't tug on your skin too much, which in the end leads to wrinkles and sagging.

7) APPLY SKINCARE UPWARDS

The same concept applies for when you're toning or moisturising your face. Instead of dragging your skin down with your skincare, apply your products upwards so you simulate a more lifted and youthful appearance rather than pulling your skin down which in time creates more wrinkles and fine lines
