Tip to Prevent Aging and Make your Skin Glow

Tip 1:

Getting enough sleep for 8-9 hours daily will help keep your body and skin in best shape. Sleep is also the best time to rejuvenate your skin. Whereas lack of sleep can lead to dark circles, puffy eyes and pale skin, so make sure you get enough sleep daily.


Tip 2:

Exercise is good for the entire body including the skin. Exercising improves blood circulation throughout the body, keeps away wrinkles, unclogs pores

and helps nourish the skin.

Tip 3;

Eat healthy foods that are rich in vitamins and minerals such as berries, oranges, avocados, seafood, dark green veggies; these can help prevent signs of aging. These kinds of food also helps reduce wrinkles and acne formation, keeping your skin supple and glowing.

Tip 4:

Green tea is packed with antioxidants that help your skin look younger and healthier. It improves your skin complexion; hence drink 2-3 cups of green tea daily for a healthy and glowing skin.


Tip 5:

Exfoliating helps remove excess dirt, clogging pores and dead skin cells that can lead to early aging. Hence exfoliate regularly to keep your skin soft and healthy.

Tip 6:

Sunscreen protects your skin from the sun's harmful ultra violet rays, and prevents your skin from signs of aging such as pigmentation, wrinkles and other skin conditions. Make sure you apply proper sunscreen before stepping out of the house.

Tip 7:

Lack of water in the body can lead to dehydration, which can cause premature aging. Drinking water can help you stay hydrated throughout the day and flushes out toxins that are present in the body. Drink 8-10 glasses of water every day for a naturally glowing skin.


Tip 8:

Nuts such as almonds, cashew nuts, pistachio, and walnuts are a rich source of vitamin E, minerals and essential fatty acids which help you build collagen in the skin and maintain your skin's elasticity. Take about 5-6 of these nuts early morning before breakfast for a healthy skin.
