Sleeping on your back
Many people find sleeping on their back uncomfortable, but it can actually reduce facial wrinkles. Sleeping on your back means lying flat on your back, the ideal sleeping position. This posture not only relaxes all the muscles in your body but also reduces facial wrinkles. Therefore, for women, sleeping on their back appropriately can prevent facial wrinkles and combat aging.
Additionally, according to research from the American Academy of Dermatology, sleeping on your side can increase wrinkles on your cheeks and chin, while sleeping on your stomach can cause deep furrows on your forehead. Therefore, it is best to sleep on your back.
Don't rub your eyes or squint.
The root cause of fine lines around the eyes is dryness and dehydration. The skin around the eyes is too thin and has weak protective ability, making it prone to moisture evaporation and wrinkles compared to other parts of the face. Many fine lines are also caused by our own actions, as many are expression lines. Therefore, it's important to control your hands and avoid rubbing your eyes vigorously, squinting, or straining your eyes when looking at things.
The American Academy of Dermatology believes that repetitive facial movements, such as squinting, can overwork facial muscles and eventually lead to wrinkles. So if you can't see clearly, wear appropriate glasses.
Eat more fish
You can also eat more foods rich in vitamin A and vitamin B2, such as carrots, tomatoes, potatoes, animal liver, and beans, which are beneficial for eye protection.
Use cocoa powder instead of coffee
Studies have found that flavanols in cocoa powder can help improve women's skin, increase moisture content, reduce skin unevenness, and help protect the skin from UV damage.
Do not wash your face excessively.
Human skin accumulates dirt, sebum, sweat, and residual skincare products daily, making face washing necessary. However, too much of a good thing can be bad; excessive washing not only fails to protect the skin but can also damage it. Skin is constantly undergoing metabolism and has a certain self-cleaning function. Sweat and sebum form a slightly acidic lipid film on the skin's surface, giving it a healthy glow. Vigorous scrubbing and frequent washing can damage normal epidermal cells, easily leading to wrinkles.
Eat more fruits and vegetables
Research from Tulane University in the United States has found that vitamin C can increase collagen synthesis, prevent damage to the skin from UVA and UVB rays, correct pigmentation, and improve inflamed skin.
Eat more soybeans
Studies have shown that soybeans help protect against or treat some photoaging damage, improve skin tissue, and make it firmer. Soybeans also contain protein that makes skin shiny, but are low in fat. Eating more soybeans and less meat can help achieve healthy weight loss.
