As you age, wrinkles naturally form on the neck and hand skin. However, people with habits that accelerate skin aging may experience skin sagging faster than others. If you want your skin to stay firm a little longer, which habits should you start changing first?

 

If you haven't applied cosmetics to your neck and hands so far, start applying them from now on.

 

The cheeks and the back of the hands have thinner skin and fewer oil glands than the face, making them more prone to dryness.

You should apply moisturizer with as much care as you do to your face. After washing your hands, generously apply moisturizer to your nails, the back of your hands, and up to your wrists. Pressing firmly between your fingers to promote blood circulation also helps improve skin elasticity.

 

After washing your face, it is also good to apply nourishing cream up to your neck.

 

Instead of applying from top to bottom, gently sweeping upward from bottom to top helps prevent neck wrinkles. Sunscreen should also be applied generously. Ultraviolet rays destroy elastin and collagen, which are responsible for skin elasticity, thereby accelerating skin aging.

If you have a habit of taking a hot shower every morning, change it.

 

Whether it's your neck or hands, washing with lukewarm water can slow down skin aging. Washing with hot water reduces the activity of sebaceous glands, making the naturally dry skin of the neck and hands even drier and more prone to wrinkles. Be careful when drying with a towel as well. Do not rub the towel roughly on the skin surface; instead, gently press to remove moisture.

 

Pay special attention to washing your neck in the evening. If you have applied makeup to match your face and skin tone, thoroughly cleanse to remove all residual makeup products. Do not scrub the cleanser vigorously on your neck; instead, wash by gently sweeping upward from below.

 

 

Maintaining good posture regularly also helps.

 

If you stay with your head bowed for a long time, wrinkles will inevitably form on the folded area of the neck skin. When walking, do not look at the ground; keep your back straight and hold your head upright. Walk with your gaze looking upward rather than downward. Do not use an excessively high pillow even when sleeping. It is also forbidden to lie on your side for a long time while watching TV or using your mobile phone. If you do not lie in an upright position, wrinkles tend to form easily in various parts of the neck.

 

 

==================

It is said that even a pillow needed for sleep, if too high, can cause more wrinkles.

Choosing the right pillow for yourself is also important.

 

It's also good to apply neck cream.

On hot days, I keep sweating around my neck, especially when I'm staying cool at home.

I think it would be good to apply it.
