As much as we all wish it was not the case, aging is inevitable. You cannot stop growing older and it happens to everyone. However, with the right skincare products, methods, and lifestyle habits, you can promote healthy, natural aging.

Dermatologists suggest your early twenties as the best time to begin preventative skincare. Around age 25 is when fine lines and wrinkles become apparent, due to a loss of elasticity. And since treating fine lines, wrinkles, sun spots, hyperpigmentation, and other forms of aging starts long before you develop them, it’s especially important to have a regimen in place to prevent them.

To guide you through the multitude of methods that prevent premature aging, we’ve compiled a list of the most important ones.

First thing’s first, protect your skin from the sun every day. The American Academy of Dermatology suggests using a daily sunscreen that is 30 SPF or higher. If you want a tan, apply self tanner rather than getting a real tan - artificially or under the sun.

Balance your diet, and watch the products that you eat. Eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables may help prevent damage that leads to premature skin aging. Incorporate more of these and less refined sugar and carbohydrates in your diet.

Moisturize daily to keep your skin hydrated and therefore the appearance of fine lines at bay. Try to use a moisturizer with proven hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and ceramides to protect the skin’s natural moisture, support the skin barrier and make it more resilient to the drying and damaging effects of the environment. Omnia All-In-One Skin Perfector has all three of these ingredients, plus more anti-aging elements that will improve your complexion with each use.

Quit smoking (if you do) and drink less alcohol, if you do. Collagen production is slowed and broken down when you smoke and alcohol dehydrates the skin, leading to damaged skin that makes us look older.

Try to get as much exercise in as you can. This supports blood circulation and the immune system. And aim for at least seven hours of sleep a night. Skin has a circadian rhythm and actively regenerates at night, so a healthy amount of sleep is essential to promoting skin renewal and anti-aging.

Apply skincare products in an upward motion and don't forget about your neck! Applying your products upwards will work against gravity and improve elasticity to prevent premature aging. It’s also a great way to give yourself a face massage in the morning and move stagnant lymphatic fluid towards your lymph nodes — leaving you with a sculpted face.
