If only it were possible to be forever young. That way, we’d never have to worry about wrinkles, age spots and other skin issues that come with old age. Alas, scientists still haven’t figured out how to create a time machine so there’s no way to avoid Father Time. Nonetheless, there are ways to maintain your youthful good looks for years to come. Simply follow these five men’s skincare tips to minimize the appearance of wrinkles and other signs of aging.
1. Try a new hairstyle. If it’s been years since you last changed your hairstyle, it’s time for a new ‘do. Consult your hairstylist or check out our men’s hairstyle slideshow to find some cool, modern looks. A new hairstyle paired with products like a men’s hair pomade and men’s hair gel may be just what you need to look younger. “Keep Your Hair Healthy-Looking” offers more tips for great hair.
2. Supplement your diet with omega 3s. Omega 3 fatty acids are essential nutrients that may help promote healthy-looking skin. Luckily, it’s easy to get more of this nutrient in your diet. Up your intake of fatty fish like salmon and tuna, and make sure you take a pharmaceutical-grade omega 3 supplement to get the most benefits. To find out more about the many benefits of this nutrient, check out “The Importance of Omega-3 Fatty Acids.”
3. Focus on more than just your face. While your face is the first thing that most people notice, your hands, feet and even your chest need proper care, too – they are also susceptible to aging signs like wrinkles and age spots. By using a men’s body lotion and men’s body wash regularly, you’ll infuse your skin with healthy antioxidants that can delay aging signs and maintain your skin’s elasticity and firmness. “The Best Bodycare Products for Men” lists other great skincare products you may want to consider.
4. Consume enough protein. Your body uses protein and amino acids to repair and rebuild cells in your body – that includes skin cells. A men’s whey protein powder is a simple way to boost your protein and amino acid for younger-looking. You can mix MenScience Whey Formula with water, milk or your favorite shake – it’s extremely versatile. To find out more about how protein can help you, read “The Benefits of Protein for Men.”
5. Revisit your sunblock. If you use an SPF 15 sunblock or skip it altogether, you’re not doing enough to protect your skin from sun damage. Sun damage is one of the leading causes of wrinkles and other aging signs in men’s skin, so it’s important you use a men’s sunscreen that works against both UVA/UVB rays. MenScience TiO2 Sunblock SPF 30 offers this type of protection and goes one step further by also keeping skin hydrated and soft. “Protect Your Skin From Sun Damage” is the ultimate guide to protecting your skin from the elements.
