1. Stay away from the sun

The sun is one of the biggest environmental causes of skin damage and premature aging.  As a result, preventing sun damage by staying away from its rays during the afternoons, wearing sunscreen and protective clothing may do more for your skin than any other skin care activity you can engage in.

2.  Sleep on your back

Gravity pulls your skin down non-stop during the day.  Over the long-term, this contributes greatly to sagging and wrinkles.  Sleeping on your back allows your skin to take a break from this constant pulling force.

Just as importantly, sleeping on your back keeps your face away from the pillow, a possible cause of eye puffiness and skin irritation.

3. Wash your face gently

Washing your face strips oil and dirt away.  While it’s fine to do once or twice a day, excessive washing, especially with harsh detergents, can strip your skin of crucial moisture.  Even those with oily skin need not wash more than twice as stripping away oil lipids can spur the skin to become even oilier as a result.

4. Quit smoking and drinking

There never seems to be a shortage of reasons to quit both cigarettes and alcohol. You can include long-term skin damage along with that unending list.  Smoking generates a flood of free radicals that do plenty of damage on your skin. Alcohol, on the other hand, increases the leaking of capillaries, which results in faster wrinkle formation and puffiness.
