Sunscreen isn't the only way to fix it

Has your skin recently sneaked up on you and made you question how the hell it's started to buffer in fine lines? The funny thing is as a guy you are supposed to chin up and feel like it's really not a big deal. And to be honest, it really isn't.

But doesn't that mean you shouldn't nip the bud when you can?

How Does Your Skin Change As You Get Older?

Most often than not, wrinkles are seen as signs of ageing. And while they are exactly that. A little more is happening behind the scenes with the skin.

The biggest driver is the gradual breakdown of collagen which is the structural protein that keeps your skin firm and elastic. As we grow older, the two essential proteins- collagen and elastin- that keep our facecard strong starts to breakdown leading to wrinkles and sagging.

The oil glands start to produce less oil leaving your skin dry and rough. Not only that our skin starts to become more delicate and thinner making it more prone to damage.

Additionally, more sun exposure leads to age spots. But that's not all. How you treat your body also matters. Lifestyle choices like smoking and drinking, not having a skincare routine can really affect how well your skin ages.

So, what's the fix?

Caring for your skin starts with hydration, changing some lifestyle choices and of course, no conversation about a good skin can not be complete with the mention of a good sunscreen. Guys, deny it all the time. But what's the worse that could happen if you really did use a sunscreen? Just how you have switched from using a body soap for a shampoo for your hair health.

Along with that you need some gentle routine for your skin. Here's how to take care of your skin to combat wrinkles from an early onset. We recommend five anti-wrinkle products that will help you from looking like an old hag.
