Ageing is a natural part of life. However, this doesn’t mean you need to let your skin show your age. Our lifestyle can take a toll on our skin, but there are ways to prevent premature ageing skin.
Premature ageing skin is attributed to multiple factors. Lifestyle, general health and skincare are the biggest contributors to your skins appearance, so settle in and read our top tips below to maintain your best skin for many years to come.

Sun protection 

If there is one thing responsible for wrinkly skin, making you look older than you are, it’s the sun. Sun exposure accelerates the aging process. The Australian sun is very harsh, so it is crucial to always protect your skin. Avoiding the sun is, without doubt, the best thing to do to look after your skin and keep it healthy.  

After avoiding the sun, sunscreen is the next best defence against sun damage. It is essential to wear SPF every day to protect the skin and prevent UV damage. Always wear a hat and sunglasses when spending time in the sun. 

The Australian lifestyle is very outdoorsy, which puts a lot of Australians at risk. When shopping for your sunscreen, choose SPF 30 or above.   

Healthy Lifestyle Habits

Your lifestyle has a significant impact on your health and the appearance of your skin. Like all aspects of your mental and physical wellbeing, healthy habits contribute to beautifully glowing skin.  

Eat a balanced diet, including plenty of fruits, vegetables, and great foods for your skin. Getting enough exercise is also super important, as well as drinking plenty of water every day and sleeping for at least eight hours per night. These simple, almost trivial points set the foundations for pretty, healthy skin.    

Introduce Vitamin C to your Skincare Routine

Vitamin C is the holy grail of skincare. It has proven to:  

• Refine pores 
• Firm skin 
• Improve hydration 
• Brighten the skin 
• reduce redness 
• reduce hyperpigmentation 
• reduce the appearance of under-eye circles 
• promote collagen production 

Vitamin C is an essential part of the body’s collagen production system and helps alleviate the effects of ageing.  

Using Vitamin C as part of your skincare routine, such as our Vitamin C exfoliator bundle, makes for brighter, healthier skin and provides a more natural form of sun protection. Our Exfoliator bundle works to exfoliate the skin to remove the barrier of dead skin cells and oils clogging the skin and uncovers fresh new cells below. 

With anti-aging properties that help boost collagen production, this exfoliator deeply exfoliates, nourishes and refine your pores and targets fine lines and wrinkles leaving you with soft, radiant skin.    

The Takeaway?

Take care of your skin and it will take care of you. Protecting your skin from the sun is very important for its long-term health and appearance. Healthy habits combined with an effective skincare routine will guarantee you the results you desire.
