Facial Expressions And Stress Can Cause Wrinke

CAUSE: Facial expressions, stress
EFFECT: Frown lines, crows feet, smile lines

Wrinkle is one of the most common yet most dreaded words. Everybody will have to face it some or the other time in their life span.

Expression lines equal character. Even Hollywood directors have started to complain that Botox has robbed some star’s faces of real emotion. While channelling the angst may help divas to win an Oscar, it doesn’t do their skin any real-life favours.  One can never be too young to start preventative measures, and diligence is important. Stress triggers corrosive hormones including ‘killer’ cortisols that not only hamper immunity, but also increase moisture loss, leaving skin drier and more line-prone. Clenched muscles in the neck, shoulders and jaw – where so many of us hold our stress- limits blood and oxygen supply to the skin on our faces. But a furrowed brow is the most obvious sign of stress. Constantly pleating the skin through frowning causes micro-tears (minute stress tears). The knock-on effect is inflammation, which damages collagen, making skin appear less plump.
Not only expression lines are stress-driven, however. Where skin is constantly mobile – such as round the eyes and mouth – creases are inevitable. So what about damage limitation? Invest in sunglasses. Wrap-around frames with wide sides provide excellent UV protection, and can save a fortune in Botox!
When choosing an anti-wrinkle eye cream, skin cream, or wrinkle eraser, look for products with all of these vitamins combined for the best results.

As you can see, wrinkles don’t have to control your life (or your face). You can reduce wrinkles significantly by combining a healthy lifestyle with vitamin-rich skin creams and wrinkle erasers. Start turning back the clock today!
