Everyday Habits That Could Cause Wrinkles

According to Healthline, the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles is inexorably linked to the aging process, but some lifestyle choices can hasten this inevitable process. Some of the following daily habits may be hastening the onset of wrinkles:



Forgetting to put on sunscreen: Being out in the sun without protection is a major contributor to developing wrinkles and skin aging prematurely. Even if it's cloudy or you won't be spending much time outside, you should still apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 every day. Apply it liberally to your hands, arms, legs, face, and any other exposed skin.


According to Healthline, lack of water intake can cause your skin to become dry and dull, which in turn can accentuate fine lines and wrinkles. It's crucial to replenish lost moisture through adequate water intake daily to maintain healthy, youthful skin. Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, and more if you exercise or spend time in hot, dry climates.

A higher risk of developing wrinkles is just one of the many negative health effects of smoking, as reported by webmd. Collagen and elastin are proteins that give skin its pliability and resilience, but the chemicals in cigarettes can break them down. Because of the constant frowning and scowling that comes with smoking, smokers are also more likely to show signs of aging around the eyes and mouth.

Lack of sleep can cause your skin to look dry and dull, as well as cause dark circles and puffiness under your eyes. Maintaining a youthful appearance of your skin can be aided by getting between 7 and 9 hours of sleep nightly.

According to Healthline, leaving makeup on overnight can cause skin to become dry and dehydrated, as well as clog pores and cause breakouts. If you want your skin to breathe and rejuvenate while you sleep, you should remove all traces of makeup before turning in.

Avoiding regular exfoliation, which can help improve the appearance of your skin by removing dead skin cells and unclogging pores. In order to maintain a smooth, youthful appearance, exfoliating your skin once or twice weekly is recommended.


Wrinkles can be avoided and hydration maintained by regularly applying a moisturizer. Incorporate a daily moisturizer into your routine, particularly after cleansing and exfoliating.

Failure to take precautions against the cold can result in dry, cracked skin because the skin's natural oils are evaporated in response to the cold. Use a thick, creamy moisturizer and possibly an additional face oil or serum to help keep your skin supple and protected from the harsh winter air.

Failure to use a humidifier can hasten the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by drying out the skin. Humidifiers can be used in the home or office to keep the air from becoming too dry, which can help to alleviate dry skin.

Unhealthy eating habits: The skin can become unhealthy and lackluster if the diet consists mainly of processed, sugary, and fried foods. Eating a diet high in fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats will help your skin stay healthy and radiant.


It is possible to delay the onset of wrinkles and preserve your skin's youthful appearance with just a few easy lifestyle adjustments. Sunscreen, water, rest, a clean pillowcase, nightly makeup removal, regular exfoliation, moisturizing, cold weather protection, a humidifier, and a healthy diet are all essential to maintaining healthy skin.

THE LEARNING HUB: When you wake up in the morning...

When you wake up in the morning, tell yourself: the people I deal with today will be meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous and surly. They are like this because they can't tell good from evil. But I have seen the beauty of good, and the ugliness of evil, and have recognized that the wrongdoer has a nature related to my own - not of the same blood and birth, but the same mind, and possessing a share of the divine. And so none of them can hurt me. No one can implicate me in ugliness. Nor can I feel angry at my relative, or hate him. We were born to work together like feet, hands and eyes, like the two rows of teeth, upper and lower. To obstruct each other is unnatural. To feel anger at someone, to turn your back on him: these are unnatural. ~Marcus Aurelius Book: Meditations https://amzn.to/3qjadxq (Art: Painting by Maximilien Luce)
