It's obvious that we all want to look great, but for various reasons, more and more people have to face the problem of skin aging. Even though most of us are under the age of 30, for the radiation of computer and other harms, some young people are disturbed by the skin aging.
Skin aging prevention is important but often overlooked. Although the market offers a great number of popular anti-aging skin care products, some of them are not as effective as what they claim. In fact, many products are just scams and traps. If one is luckless, then they may meet some products that have a side effect on their skins.
So, how to prevent skin aging and look younger? Can we prevent skin aging with our diet? Are there some ways that help us cure skin aging naturally?

Ok here are some tips for natural anti aging. Blueberries! They are packed full of anti oxidents and can really slow down the aging thing. Staying out of the sun or using sunscreen is the number one anti ager that I know of. Lotion is also very important.

Sure! Over time our skin loses moisture and causes wrinkles. When we are young our skin replaces this moisture and the collagen that gives our skin the "bounce back" effect. As we get older..our skin produces less. Lotion replaces the moisture that is lost and helps to keep wrinkles to a minumum and makes the skin tighter. There are all kinds of "special" products but the only ones you really need is a good facial moisturizer.

Yes, there are some tips that can help us to anti aging. It is obvious that anti oxidents and can slow down the aging thing. But I have never heared of the useage of blueberries for anti-aging. If it is really full of anti oxidents, it is worth trying.
By the way, could you give me more detailed information of lotion, I am not familiar with the relationship between lotion and anti-aging. Thank you very much.

There are several ways to keep your skin fresh and young looking. Number one and foremost is eating good food! Foods with Vitamin A in it is great stuff for good skin. Then using a good lotion after blotting your skin dry straight out of the shower. Sun is important for us to get some Vitamin D utilized in our bodies. But, we need to protect ourselves from too much and from burns. Then there is a way of massaging your face (with a good night cream)that will ensure not much sag. I have used this over the years and know that it works. The trick is to start a practice of taking care of your skin early in life and staying with it.

I can’t agree with you anymore. These products with hydroquinon are not as effective as what they claim. Sometimes, many of them are just scams and traps and bring us side effects on our health.
As your tips and other friends here have said, drinking a lot of water per day can help us anti skin aging, which is the simplest but the most useful to cure the skin aging.
If one can smile everyday, they will have no wrinkles on their face and enjoy a good life all the time.

i will follow your discussion. But i know too much sunlight damages our skin thus aging is increased. I also use tea bath for retroactive effects on my skin coz i work in a farm i am mostly exposed to sunlight and dusty wind.

In fact, there are many reasons that may lead to the skin aging, such as computer radition, too much straight sunlight and cold-weather damage.
Working in the farm is really a difficult task and have to suffer the damage of sunlight and dusty wind. As you have mentioned above, a tea bath is really useful to keep our healthy and cure skin.

A friend of my Mom's lived to be 85 years old & she had the softest skin & NO wrinkles. Her way of doing it...drink lots of water & put a light coat of Baby Oil on your face every night before going to bed & then wash your face thoroughly the next morning. Repeat daily!!!
A friend of mine used egg whites on her face to help keep her skin tight. She said she learned it when she worked as a model. Just separate the whites from the yolks, beat the whites & spread on the wrinkled areas. Let dry & use makeup as usual.
Being a few years over 30 I have found that L'Oreal's Collagen Remodeler works wonders!!! There are 2 stages...a day & a night. The night is more of a collagen moisturizer. The day stage is a tightener which is good to wear when you need to go out. I had tried almost every scam product out there when I found the L'Oreal product. It's NOT cheap. Regular price at my Walgreen's is $19.95. However, about once a month they put it on sale for 25% off. I used it every day at first & now I only use it about once a week. It doesn't take much. I had deep lines on my forehead & was thinking of using Botox, but now I have NO lines plus I haven't lost my ability to raise my eyebrows!!!
The Baby Oil is more natural if you're young & have plenty of time. However, if time is creeping up on you, the L'Oreal product works faster!!! I was never sure if the egg white actually got rid of the wrinkles or if it just tightened & smoothed while wearing the egg whites.

One is 85 years old but she has the softest skin and no wrinkles? It is really an amazing thing.
As you have mentioned above, there are so many methods that are helpful to anti-aging. But the problem is that most people are aware of the importance of skin aging prevention but often overlooked. So, the key to keep our skin healthy is to insist on it once we have find a good way to anti aging.

I believe what you eat says alot about how your skin looks and feels. I try to eat 3 to 4 fruits a day, at leat 2 veggies a day if not more. I clean my face twice a day and moisturize everyday. When drying my face I usually pat dry. Also staying out of the sun and not smoking will do wonders for your skin.

2. do the best to have good mood.
3. eat more green vegetables and fresh fruits.
4. use suitable cosmetic.
5. to exercise as more as possible, esp until the slight sweat.
and others.

Taking fresh vegetable everyday and live tension free is the best way to prevent skin aging and look younger.
The anti aging products prevent it temporarily but in long run those are worthless.

I agree with your ideas. Having a good rest and doing some exercises are good for our skin.

The question is, " CAN WE PREVENT AGING?" Whether we like it or not we will get old. CORRECT? Of course it's obvious we all want to look young and beautiful. But for me, "AGEING MEANS WISDOM". The more you get old the more respect we get from people because of our experiences. That is the beauty of getting old GRACIOUSLY. How to you get old graciously? By being simple, don't alter anything from your body. Let God do it. For me living simply is a blessing. To see my family successful in their field is already enough. To see them happy with their family makes me happy. At the age of 50, I'm gifted with a beautiful skin, they said flawless. And my friends are asking me what is my secret? Do I have a special cream for my face? Honestly speaking, I tell them, NONE, my secret is simple, washing my face with water morning and evening, nothing else. And they are amazed. And I told them, its a qift from God. Yes, cross my heart I don't put anything in my face except lipstick.

Biggest one is to stay out of intense sun and use sunscreen. Moisturizer and other things help, but prevention is most important!

For me, its sleeping at least 8 hours a day. The more the better. And apply lotion after bath. Don't go out when its very hot. Avoid sunlight, and don't smile or laugh too much, it will give wrinkles to your beautiful face.

We do not need to go out and spend loads of money on so called skin care products in order to have great looking skin. We just need to eat a healthy diet, get plenty of exercise and the body will take care of the rest!
I believe that eating loads of greens, vegetables and fruits are the keys to maintaining a healthy and youthful look. Rotating these daily too, not eating the same greens, vegetables and fruits every day will help as you get a variety of different vitamins and minerals.
Getting out and getting some sun on your skin is great for it as you will soak in the vitamin D! These days far too many people are deficient in vitamin D because they have been told by the so called experts to stay out of the sun to avoid skin cancer! 30 minutes of direct sun each day is all we need to boost our vitamin D intake!

Skin aging is unaviodable but we can postond the aging by eating antioxidants. Antioxidants fights against oxidant which generates in the body. Oxidants are resposible for the skin aging.
Antioxidants are more in fruits, milk.
It is important to wash your hands often and touch your face less frequently if you have acne because squeezing, poking and picking at your face increases athe chances of infection and scarring. Applying the acne sking aging treatment product and let it do its job.
Wash your face in the morning and evening using a cleansing product made for your face, not a bar of soap. There are anti aging cleansers made for oily, dry and combination skin. Oily skin aging is prone to blemishes and breadouts and requires product that will cleanse the skin. Dry skin aging usually appears as fine lines and wrinkles so it is important to use a hydrating face cream that helps restore the skins moisture and radiance. Combination skin with both oily and dry areas requires an anti aging product for both the dry areas and oily areas.
As much as people would like to believe they could find a skin aging prevention miracle in a bottle,cosmetics. It is not so, only natural inner beauty will increases the beauty and glow. try this. take care, bye
