Wrinkles can be caused by many things, including age, sun exposure, and improper care of your skin. There are several simple, inexpensive steps you can take at home to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Dry, unhealthy skin makes wrinkles more noticeable. Making your skin look fuller can minimize the appearance of wrinkles. Try an anti-aging skin care product for sensitive skin that contains sodium hyaluronate and fruit acids to plump up your complexion. Sodium hyaluronate, which is found in connective tissue, retains water in your skin, which keeps it hydrated. Keeping your skin hydrated will keep it from drying out and becoming wrinkled. Sodium hyaluronate will also help your skin shed old cells and replace them with new ones, which will make your skin feel softer, firmer, smoother, and healthier. Fruit acids thicken deeper layers of skin, which will make your skin feel firmer and make your body produce more skin collagen and elastin. Avoid products with retinoid or salicylic acids because they can be irritating, especially if you have sensitive skin.
Skin cells are shed and replaced regularly. As you get older, or if you don’t clean your face properly, old skin cells can accumulate and create clogged pores and an unhealthy complexion. You can remove old skin cells with a gentle exfoliating scrub with fine pumice so that new cells can emerge. Exfoliating your skin weekly will allow it to retain more moisture.
You can also use makeup to hide wrinkles. Begin with a cream concealer that matches your skin tone. Use a concealer brush and lightly tap it on the wrinkles. Then dust a kabuki brush lightly with loose mineral foundation and blend in the concealer to create an even toned and natural look. Avoid powder with corn starch, which may clog pores and cause allergic reactions. Apply foundation lightly. Sweep blush on the apples of your cheeks. Use cosmetic rice powder to hide wrinkles, minimize shine, and help your makeup last longer. Apply makeup to make your eyes look natural, and keep your eyebrows shaped.
If you follow these skin care and makeup tips, you can maintain healthy, youthful looking skin.
