Step1
Skin looses its firmness as people age due to a reduction in collagen and eslastin. This loosening is one of the main causes of wrinkles and can not be completely avoided. There are some wrinkle causing factors, like environment and habits that can be avoided. The following steps explains different ways a person can avoid or reduce the appearance of wrinkles
Step2
Do not smoke. Smoking reduces the production of collagen. In addition to the natural reduction in collagen that comes with age, even more reduction leads to even more wrinkles.
Step3
Moisturizing.Massage.
Keeping skin from drying out by hydrating it with moisturizers will help skin keep its firmness. Massage in a little and with the ring finger massage in a circular motion from the corner of the eye outwards towards the temple area. Do this on a daily basis to exercise and improve the efficiency of the muscles encircling the eye
Step4
Keeping hydrated. Drinking ample amounts of water also helps the skin in the same way as moisturizing.
Step5
Limiting sun exposure. The sun is a major factor in skin damage that causes wrinkles. The sun dries out and ruins skin over years of exposure. Protecting oneself with sunscreen and avoiding sun exposure during the most severe times of day is the best way to minimize sun damage.
Step6
Sleep The Right Way: Puffiness can be caused by an accumulation of fluid in the eye area, possibly from allergies or a sinus problem. Try sleeping with your head a little higher so this fluid cannot accumulate as easily. Try this for 2 weeks and see what the results are. I don’t believe in sleeping on high pillows in general, as they are not the best for your body alignment. If you decide you need to stay with the higher pillow make sure your neck is properly supported.
Get Enough Sleep and Rest: Yes, you have heard this before. But it really is true. While you are testing these suggestions try to get 7 or 8 hours rest. Then make up your own mind if this is good for you.

on 8/18/2008 Good tips. I was showing my brother the broken vessels in my face from having 5 surgeries in the last year. His boy said, "It looks like you smoke," as he pointed to his mouth. I don't smoke. I'm going to try some of your recipes and techniques.
