Avoid Wrinkles & Protect Your Eyes at the Same Time

 

I would imagine that most people never give it a thought about their eyes and how a precious gift it is to have clear vision and be able to see! Our eyes are one of the most precious resources we have and to loose site (no pun intended) of this could create the cost of not seeing clearly or at all.

Squinting or tears from bright outdoor light- This is a defense mechanism to protect the eyes from the UVA ray. that can over time cause permanent damage including certain eye diseases. "In order to prevent diseases from affecting your eyes, you must wear sunglasses that are at least UV400, and keep your eyes shaded as much as possible."


So the common sense solution is to wear sunglasses. Less squinting equals fewer fine lines and crow’s-feet! Pick a pair that looks great as well as give you the best protection.  I love the aviator style sun glasses. RayBan as some really cool styles. Why do you think pilots for decades where that shape!!!

Not only will wearing sunglasses protect the delicate skin around your eyes from the sun, but it’ll also help prevent squinting, which directly contributes to wrinkling.

Hey Mom's out there .....here's another reason to consider your children and introducing them to wearing sun glasses. It's in fashion plus you will help them protect their eyes and protect their skin around their eyes as well!

3 Steps to Help Keep Your Skin Smooth, Soft and Hydrated for the Spring and Summer

Here are 3 easy and basic steps to you skin routine that will keep you feeling fresh, smooth and hydrated for spring and summer.

 

Cleanse, Tone, Moisturize

Cleanse :

Cleansing is a vital part of the skincare regimen. Throughout the day and as we sleep, our body produces and accumulates waste. In order to purify, refresh and maintain the skin, it needs to be thoroughly cleaned. The more mature the skin, the deeper the crevices for dirt to hide. Without a great cleanser, debris builds, clogging pores, inhibiting regular collagen production, and enhancing lines and wrinkles.  

 

Toner:

Toner is a key step in an effective skincare regime - it follows the application of the cleanser. Think of a toner as your back up to ensure all traces of dire and impurities have been removed, allowing skin t breathe and generate the proper collage, elastin and moisture needed for healthy, glowing, youthful-looking skin.

 

Moisturizer:

 After using toner, remember to moisturize. Moisturizer protects the skin by locking in natural moisture, which is vital in the fight against the signs of aging. A good quality face moisturizer will help to hydrate all skin types. Despite popular belief, people with oily skin types should still moisturize. During the day choose a dedicated moisturizer which is usually lighter in texture and often ‘carries’ environmental protectors such as antioxidants and SPFs. Complement your day cream with a night cream to aid the restoring and renewing processes of your skin while you sleep

 

Additional Considerations for your skin care regime:

You may want to use a serum to help to give you additional protection against the environment and the natural aging process. Look for one that provides a strong antioxidant, hydrates, promotes healthy skin elasticity and firmness and healthy cell growth for a smooth radiant looking skin.
