Wrinkles and fine lines are one of the most common signs of aging brought about by both genetic and environmental factors. Here are 5 ways to prevent and treat wrinkles and fine lines naturally at home.
Always Wear Sunscreen
Wearing Sunscreen with sun protection factor (SPF) over 30, can help maintain younger looking skin and delay the signs of aging, as sun exposure can cause wrinkles and fine lines. For best results, wear a moisturizing sunscreen on your face for long term healthy skin.

Up Your Antioxidants
A healthy diet replenishes and regenerates your skin, by reducing signs of premature aging and reversing the effects of oxidative stress that your skin goes through daily. You can use a sunscreen or wrinkle cream enriched with antioxidants or you can opt for a healthy diet, consisting of blueberries, kidney beans, grapes, kale, and spinach for an antioxidant boost for your skin.
Start Face Yoga
Face yoga and face massages help prevent and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, by stimulating collagen and elastin production in your skin, giving you smoother and tighter-looking skin.
Dedicate three to five minutes daily to practice face yoga or give yourself a facial massage by applying firm pressure with your fingers to either side of your face and moving them in circular strokes to relax yourself, promote blood circulation and reduce wrinkles.

Change Your Sleeping Position
Sleep allows the body to become well rested and the skin to rejuvenate. Lack of proper rest and an uncomfortable sleep position can cause wrinkling on your face, as your skin can become compressed when your face is pressed against the pillow. Over time, this compression results in skin to become weaker in some places, causing wrinkle to form.
You can prevent compression wrinkles by sleeping on your back. Moreover, you can opt for Silk or copper-oxide pillowcases, as silk is easy on the skin as it contains proteins and is hypoallergenic and copper-oxide pillowcases can reduce fine lines in the skin.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of liquids throughout the days to hydrate and retain moisture in your skin. If you find it difficult to drink plenty of water, check out these 3 Homemade Drinks That Will Keep You Hydrated on our website, to find out other drinks that promote hydration.
It is important to hydrate your skin internally, as well as externally. Aloe Vera Gel reduces the appearance of wrinkles by increasing skin elasticity, generating collagen, and hydrating the skin. Apply Aloe Vera Gel to your face for 15 minutes, let it dry and then rinse with lukewarm water.
