Consume foods with Omega-3, an necessary fatty acid which raises healthy formation of cells, making them supple and flexible. Eat more salmon, tuna, walnuts, kale, spinach and winter squash for softer skin. Flaxseed Oil also includes high levels of Omega-3 and can be drizzled on your salads and veggies.

Drink alcohol in discipline. Not only for health causes but for your form. Drinking alcohol amplifies blood vessels in the skin and enhances the blood flow near skin’s surface. Overstressing the liver can show up on the skin as a sallow complexion along with promoting the bad collagen (scar tissue) to build in the skin. Blood vessels can turn permanently damaged over time causing a blotchy, uneven, red look to the skin. Alcohol is also a diuretic and it dehydrates the body resulting is less plump, unhealthy looking skin.

Stop smoking. Smoking causes a restricting of the blood vessels in the skin due to the heaped nicotine and also shortens the collagen and elastin production in the skin causing it to age and sag prematurely. Not only does smoking deplete the body of Vitamin C which is needed for plump and healthy skin, the repeated puckering of the lips can cause early wrinkles around the mouth and lips.

Too much sugar consumption over long periods of time has been shown to cause skin to dull and wrinkle prematurely due to a process in the body called glycation. This natural process causes the sugar in the bloodstream, to attach to proteins that form harmful molecules called AGE’s or advanced glycation end products. These AGE’s damage other proteins in the skin, particularly the collagen and elastin fibers, which keep skin supple and elastic. Since collagen is the most prevalent protein in the body, once damaged it becomes brittle leading to sagging. According to a British study, these effects start around age 35 and increase rapidly thereafter. Limit sugar intake not only for your waistline but for your skin!

Cold weather protection is necessary for keeping skin soft and feeling smooth. When temperatures dip into the freezing zone the skin requires special care against chapping and dehydration. Moisturizers are made with as much as 70 percent water which will not be any good on your face in the dead of winter. Protective creams are made with minimal water and maximum emollients so the skin stays well moisturized even on the coldest of days.
