Best Ways to Remove Wrinkles with Prevention and Makeup

At some point, we all start looking for the best ways to remove wrinkles.  In fact, if there is one thing that will give away your age, it’s wrinkles.

They creep along your forehead, circle around your eyes, and spread from the corners of your mouth. While you may accept them as unfortunate parts of life which everyone must endure, there are ways that you can reduce their visibility. With a little work each day, you can preserve your youthful glow without going in for injections or surgery.

Nourish Your Skin

If you aren’t already drinking a lot of water and consuming nutrient-rich foods on a daily basis, your diet is probably one of the reasons you’re developing wrinkles. Your skin naturally loses water throughout the day, and it depends on you to replenish its supply on a routine basis.

If you’re spending too much time in the sun, allowing your skin to become damaged in any way, or exercising hard enough to sweat, then you need even more water than the average person sitting at a desk or lounging on the couch. When replenishment isn’t adequate for the amount of water lost, you end up with dry, flaky skin that wrinkles easily.

Malnourished skin will also develop wrinkles because it doesn’t have the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients needed to repair damaged cells, fight off free radicals, and remain soft and smooth. One of the best ways to remove wrinkles and to prevent the future development of wrinkles, start substituting fatty proteins for lean meats and plant proteins, colorful vegetables for potatoes and rice, and fresh fruit for sugary treats. Eat salmon and other fish packed with omega-3 fatty acids, and eat your veggies and fruits raw or lightly steamed to benefit from the antioxidants.

If you want to fight dehydration and malnutrition in one cup, start sipping white tea or trade your afternoon coke for naturally sweetened green tea. Studies have shown that white tea can preserve collagen and elastin, which are both needed by your skin to remain tight and wrinkle-free.

Limit Skin-Damaging Exposure

You may already know that smoking cigarettes or using illegal drugs will have a devastating impact on your skin, but you may not realize that exposing your skin to secondhand smoke can have the same impact. If you expose your skin to sunlight without the protection of sunblock, you’re adding more fuel for the development of wrinkles. The same goes for routine exposure to vehicle exhaust or low-quality air in your surrounding environment.

One of the ways to remove wrinkles and prevent damaging exposure is by asking smokers to take their habit outside and not following them for the social interaction. Limit your time in smoky bars, and control your consumption of alcohol. Use air purification systems in your home to ensure your air is as healthy and pure as possible.

DIY Wrinkle-Fighting Masks

You can buy masks and facial creams designed to help you fight wrinkles, but why not create affordable masks from items already found in your kitchen? Here are some ideas for ingredients that will nourish and hydrate your skin while providing antioxidants to fight wrinkles:

• Egg whites and ground coffee
• Avocado with fresh cream, flaxseed and honey
• Extra-virgin olive oil with sugar and lemon

You should only leave the olive oil mask on for a minute or two, but you the other options are better left on for up to half an hour. You can also use extra-virgin olive oil to remove your eye makeup because many women swear that it helps reduce the appearance of eye wrinkles.

Ways to Remove Wrinkles By Changing Your Cosmetics

If you’re worried about wrinkles, you’re old enough for anti-aging products. Select a high-quality moisturizer and wrinkle-fighting cream with retinol, and make sure that your makeup doesn’t include alcohol. You can also ask your doctor to prescribe a retinoid treatment. Over-the-counter products are made with retinol, which is a natural vitamin A product. Prescription creams are made with Retin-A, which is a synthetic form manufactured in labs. While natural options are often best, there is some evidence that Retin-A delivers faster results.

Use Cosmetics to Hide Wrinkles

One of the ways to remove wrinkles is to start your makeup routine with a foundation of silicone primer and a moisturizing foundation. You want to use a water-based foundation that goes on light, limiting the risk that it will clog your pores. While you don’t want to cake on the powder, you can use a fine layer of mineral powder to give your skin a healthy shine that will make your wrinkles far less noticeable.

Do you use concealer to hide blemishes? There are right ways and wrong ways to do this so that you maintain a natural and youthful appearance. Check out our guide filled with makeup concealer tips to learn how to do it correctly.

At this point, you have some effective strategies to reduce the obvious appearance of your wrinkles so that your skin doesn’t give away your true age. While changing your lifestyle may take some time, you can always use your makeup brush to stroke away those signs of maturity.
