Moisturizing the skin is one of the most important weapons if you battle against aging.
1 of 5
Moisturizing is very important as it helps keep your skin hydrated throughout the day. Fine lines and wrinkles take hold on the skin which tends to be drier. If you regularly moisturize and drink enough fluids then you ensure that the skin is hydrated from both inside and outside. This will help prevent the formation of fine lines and wrinkles and will ensure other products to prevent aging also work better.

Omega-3 fatty acids are one of the most important chemicals required within your body and for your skin. If you are deficient in this, it will result in dry and itchy skin which may develop into skin eczema and other problems. Dry and itchy skin is also one of the major reasons behind the formation of wrinkles and fine lines. If your body has enough omega-3 fatty acids and you are hydrated enough, it will prevent the formation of these fine lines and wrinkles.

Although taking care of your skin is very important and necessary, it is also required to exercise your facial muscles to maintain the tautness of your skin. Many don t realize that just like any other part of the body, the face also has muscles and one of the best ways to ensure that the skin remains tight and toned is by exercising the muscles. Even smiling or laughing is an exercise for your face, although you do need specialized exercises to fight flabby muscles which may result in flabby skin.

4 of 5
Many people start using advanced and specialized skin care products only when they start seeing wrinkles and fine lines appearing in their late thirties to early forties. However, the inception of these wrinkles and fine lines may happen as early as your 20s. Hence, it is prudent to start using specialized skin care products from your 20s; the loss of collagen can be prevented earlier which will help you stay younger looking for longer.
You should take calcium for your bones to prevent wrinkles as you age.

While this may sound a bit farfetched, it is true. As you age, especially around and after the age of 40, bone loss all over the body increases. The same goes for your face too. As the facial bones become smaller, the skin on it also starts sagging. Thus it is important to stop bone loss from occurring by taking necessary steps such as consuming the required amount of calcium per day.
