1. Keep Your Skin Hydrated
It is important to keep your skin hydrated, and water is a good nutrient for both your skin and body. Drinking plenty of water also ensures that you flush out unwanted toxins.

2. Eat A Balanced Diet
Good nutrition affects the skin much as it does any other organ and can have a long-lasting, positive effect on preventing wrinkles.

3. Get A Little Rest & Relaxation
Sleeping on one’s back is a tried and true beauty secret long practiced by Hollywood stars to avoid stress and trauma to the skin.

4. Eliminate Unnecessary Stress
Countless studies report that stress has an unfavorable effect on the muscles in your face. Most often, people frown without actually realizing it. Make a conscious effort to relax your facial muscles.

5. Quit Smoking
Smoking not only damages your lungs and heart, but the toxins cause skin damage. It is also a supported fact that smokers wrinkle at a much younger age.

6. Start An Exercise Program
Inconsistent weight gain or lose can cause your skin to stretch. Skin loses its elasticity as you age and has a difficult time in bouncing back after each weight fluctuation.

7. Wear Sunscreen
Ultraviolet (UV) rays are harmful to the skin, too much direct sunlight will increase the wrinkle process.

8. Avoid Tanning Salons
It is a total misconception that a tanning salon is safer than exposure to direct sunlight. You are still being exposed to UV rays, and at a much higher concentration than direct sunlight.

9. Wear Sunglasses
Besides the benefit of blocking UV rays around your eyes, you also will squint less. Squinting creates folds that eventually will become permanent. The skin around the eyes is very delicate and is often among the first places that facial wrinkles appear.
