How to Build a Morning Routine That Prevents Wrinkles

How to Build a Morning Routine That Prevents Wrinkles

1. Start with double cleansing

According to a study, a skincare routine has a great effect on particular aspects of aging, including sagging and deep wrinkling. One of the most recent skincare discoveries, double cleansing works a miracle for your overall skin health.

No matter how well you cleanse your face in the evening, sebum, overnight sweat, or any product buildup can clog your pores. Double cleansing involves washing your face with an oil-based cleanser and then with a gentle water-based cleanser to remove the remaining impurities without causing redness or drying up your skin.

2.  Tone your skin

Toner is usually optional in the evening skincare routine. However, it’s a must in the morning one. Toning is an excellent way to hydrate your skin after double cleansing. High-quality toners also supply the skin with additional cleansing and antioxidants.

If you have sensitive or dry skin, a toner will help relieve redness or diminish flaking. If you have combination or oily skin, a toner will help remove excess oil and treat enlarged pores. Be sure you buy a toner for your skin type.

3. Boost your skin’s elasticity with serum

Now that your face is absolutely clean, it’s time to apply anti-aging serum to your face and neck. Serums are also known for their hydrating properties and powerful antioxidants. They boost your skin’s plumpness and elasticity, slowing down the development of wrinkles and fine lines.

The common active ingredients in top-quality serums, such as vitamin A, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), retinol and hyaluronic acid, protect your skin from free radicals and daily stressors that trigger premature aging.

4. Moisturize

While serums nourish your skin, you shouldn’t forget about moisturizing it either. Moisturizing plays a critical role in replenishing natural moisture, prepping the skin for a smoother makeup application.

Choose a lightweight moisturizer for spring and summer and a richer one for colder months. Anti-aging moisturizers that include collagen and hyaluronic acid can slightly lower the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

5. Finish with sun protection

If your moisturizer includes optimal sun protection (SPF30 or SPF50), you might skip this step. Though, many beauty experts don’t recommend a moisturizer with SPF. For better sun protection and wrinkle prevention, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to your skin at least 30 minutes before you leave your house – even if it’s cloudy or rainy outside. Look for a sunscreen with SPF30 or SPF50 to ward off early signs of aging.

The final word

Sticking to a particular morning routine is a surefire way to ward off wrinkles. However, this routine can’t lessen the appearance of wrinkles you might already have. This is where anti-wrinkle injections come in handy.
