- 3. Deep moisturize. In addition to your daily moisturizer, you can also give your skin a moisture boost with the use of an anti-ageing night cream, and a weekly treat of a nourishing face mask. Night creams are applied and left overnight for the essence to be absorbed, so your skin feels renewed and supple the next morning.
- 4. Boost cell turnover. A gentle facial scrub should be used once a week to remove the top dull layers of dead skin cells and reveal the new healthy cells below. Regularly exfoliating your skin will increase the turnover rate of cell renewal and produce a smooth, rosy complexion. Alternatively, you can also encourage cell renewal with your facial cleanser and a washcloth.
- 5. Stop smoking. Smoking ages and dulls the skin. Cigarette smoke strips your skin of oxygen and slows down the turnover rate of new skin cells. It can also cause fine lines around the mouth, a result of prolonged repetitive pursing of the lips to draw on a cigarette.
