1. ADD BAKUCHIOL TO YOUR ROUTINE

This is a natural alternative to retinol, and it will stimulate skin cell turnover.  This promotes collagen production.  The best part of all is that of using bakuchiol is that you are less likely to experience irritation.  This product is the better choice for those with sensitive skin. 


2.PROTECT COLLAGEN WITH TOPICAL VITAMIN C

Your morning routine should include Vit C.  This anti-oxidant protects the collagen in your skin against UV damage.  Vit C also stimulates the production of collagen and stabilizes the proteins in skin.


3. Pack In Peptides

Peptides are the building blocks of proteins.  Peptides improve skin firmness, by promoting collagen and elastin in the skin.  


4. LIMIT YOU SUGAR INTAKE

A diet rich in sugar promotes AGEs.  AGEs break down collagen.  Take note of the ingredient list and monitor how much added sugar you allow in your diet. 


5. Don't smoke

Smoking ages you.  It decreases blood flow and oxygen to the skim.  It also creates toxic free radicals, which damages your collagen and elastin fibers.  At the end of the day smoking speeds up the aging process.  Major factor in the formation of wrinkles.
