Less Sun - More Sunscreen.
Stop worshiping the sun and start caring for your skin instead. We can't say this enough. We all enjoy a day at the beach and the fresh, attractive feeling we have when our faces are suntanned - or sunburned. However spending too much time in the sun is like squandering your savings account in your youth only to regret it in your golden years - you will pay for it later. We have seen how the sun damages the skin; avoid harmful UltraViolet (UV) rays when you can and protect yourself when you cant. It's simple as that. Use a total (UVB and UVA) sunblock.
Quit Smoking.
If you are still smoking, quit. If you are thinking about starting to smoke, dont. If your co-workers smoke, avoid them - or get them to quit. The chemicals and heat from a burning cigarette wreak obvious havoc on your face, and it isn't always easy to remove. If you want to start achieving a more youthful appearance by tomorrow, quit smoking today. Nicotine has shown in numerous laboratory experiments to harm the varous components of the dermis (a deeper layer of the skin).
Stop Worrying.
What is done is done; you cant go back in time. If you were a sun worshiper in your youth or smoked until just yesterday, quit crying over spilled milk; it wont do any good. All you can do is move from today and look forward to tomorow. You can quit adding to the lines that are already etched into your face by worrying less from this day forward. Revel in the knowledge that modern techniques can delay or reverse the effects of aging.
