It is now more possible than ever to look ten years younger with natural, high-quality skincare products. Follow these lifestyle and beauty tips to turn back time.

What Ages Our Skin in the First Place?

To turn back time, we need to identify what pushes it forward in the first place. It seems that taking good care of our skin, using a moisturizer, getting enough sleep, and staying out of the sun seems to give us youthful, radiant skin well into our forties. However, that is simply not the case when facing the aging process. A whole host of external and internal forces work against our skin over time and cause premature aging. Fortunately, there are ways to look ten years younger – without expensive, risky surgeries – that are sustainable and healthy. Before delving deeper into these tips and tricks, let's take a look at the age of our skin.

✘ Weather

There is still one thing you cannot control in this modern world: the weather. Depending on the climate you live in, the external air temperature and humidity levels can strip your skin of its youth and strength. Dry, hot climates are extremely harsh on the epidermis, causing it to lose moisture at a rapid pace every day. Similarly, extremely cold climates, both humid and dry, can cause wear and tear as your skin struggles to stay balanced amidst an icy onslaught. A harsh, icy wind can deplete every ounce of moisture on the skin barrier, leading to chapping, flaking, and irritation. Dramatically changing climates - such as the desert with hot dry days and cold windy nights - can be particularly damaging and cause chronically dry skin.

✘ Poor Nutrition

Like every other organ in the body, the skin depends on healthy nutrients, antioxidants, minerals, and water to function properly. Introducing toxins, synthetic ingredients, and chemicals causes damage. Refined sugars, alcohol, excess salt, and the like make our bodies work overtime in processing and consume more energy and water. The few minerals, vitamins, or antioxidants we have consumed with a poor diet are not enough to adequately fuel every one of our body's intricate systems.

✘ Insufficient Hydration

The body is on average 60% water. The largest organ in the body - the epidermis - is 64% water, which means it is crucial to stay hydrated if we want our skin to look and feel its best. Just one day without proper water intake (about 3-4 liters for the average adult) can leave us under-hydrated. Our skin thirsts for water and can show signs of dehydration almost immediately. Lips will chap, skin around the forehead and mouth will tighten, and our hands may even feel dry and scratchy. Water plumps our cells - including the millions that make up our skin.

✘ Bad Habits

Lifestyle choices have some influence on how young or old our skin can look. Smoking cigarettes is particularly harmful, and it has long been proven to cause premature aging. Similarly, alcohol consumption robs our body of its youthfulness and vibrancy, dehydrating our entire system and leading to damaged, dry, and dull skin. Lack of sleep and exercise can also hinder a youthful-looking appearance. It is recommended that adults get about 8 hours of sleep per night, and many fall short of this. Insufficient sleep can reduce our appetite, cause dark circles, disrupt our exercise routine, and cause mental stress.

How to Prevent the Signs of Aging?

While we cannot completely stop the aging process - thanks to Father Time - we can prevent and reduce the signs of its presence in several ways.

✔ Healthy Eating

A diet packed with whole foods, healthy grains, and seasonal produce helps our skin recover daily from external stressors and environmental wear and tear. Processing healthy food is also easier on our bodies and helps the entire system work better. The skin's natural barrier is sensitive to imbalances, which can expose your face, neck, and entire body to the whims of nature. A healthy diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins, essential fats, and minerals ensures that the skin can regulate itself better, promoting a balanced ecosystem.

✔ Good Hydration

As mentioned above, poor hydration immediately dehydrates the skin, so sufficient moisturizing is essential. To stay tight, youthful, and radiant, the skin needs enough water. Combined with hydrating skincare products, water intake is one of the best things you can do to turn back time.

✔ Skin Protection

The life-giving, earth-warming sunshine is unfortunately the cause of our aging skin. There's no denying that sunbathing gives us much-needed vitamin D and an enviable tan, but spending too much time in the sun without SPF protection can be damaging to youthful skin. A high-quality sunscreen, such as our products from the [ comfort zone ] Sun Soul line, made with biomimetic peptides to counteract signs of aging, is the best skin protection against the sun's UVA and UVB rays. Regularly visiting a dermatologist to prevent moles and sunspots can also be beneficial for staying healthy in the sun.

✔ Daily Skincare Routine

Establishing a morning and evening skincare routine helps restore the skin to its natural balance at the beginning and end of each day. Our skin does wonders by protecting us from everything we encounter and will likely show scars over time in the form of age spots, fine lines, and wrinkles. Creating a nourishing, hydrating multi-step routine is helpful to minimize the signs of aging. High-quality products rich in antioxidants, collagen, vitamins, and peptides are your best defense against Father Time.
