Home remedies - how to reduce wrinkles on the face

One of the best ways to remedy wrinkles at home is to eat properly. An unhealthy diet will be evident in the appearance of your skin, face and eyes no matter what creams lotions and other remedies you use!

If you consider your diet to be a healthy one, but are still suffering from poor skin conditions and wrinkles, you might want to have a look at a book that is currently taking the wrinkle world by storm. Entitled The Wrinkle Cure and written by leading skin expert, Nicholas Perricone, this is a great way to not only sort out your diet but to combat the signs of aging too.

Perricone's wrinkle cure diet is based around a belief that we need to treat the aging process as if it were an illness and, like all illnesses, this means taking the right medication. In the case of wrinkles, the medication is a combination of antioxidant-rich food sources, such as fruits, vegetables and wholegrain foods.

If you want a more-immediate fix, here are our top three home remedies for wrinkle reduction and prevention:

Use your sunscreen as a moisturiser

Why bother with expensive creams and moisturisers when you can use a simple sunscreen instead? We know that the majority of wrinkles are caused by sun damage, so if you focus more on preventing future wrinkles than on remedying existing lines, you might just make it to old age without looking like a shriveled up prune!

Rinse properly when you cleanse

No matter how good your cleanser or face wash, if you don't wash it off properly it is going to dehydrate the skin. This is because it can leave a soapy residue on the surface of the skin which has a drying effect. To avoid this, just spend twice as long as usual rinsing the face after cleansing.

Get a humidifier

Air conditioning and heating systems are known to dry out the skin, making the aging process occur more rapidly. It may seem odd to include the installation of a humidifier in your office or home as a wrinkle remedy, but it will help to keep air moist and therefore keep your skin moist, too.
