  6. Using wrinkle-fighters in the wrong product

  6.使用正確的去皺產品

  It’s OK to use products with anti-aging agents, such as retinol, peptides and antioxidants, to improve the skin’s appearance, but not in a cleanser. It’s a money-waster.

  使用含有抗衰老物質(如視黃醇、肽和抗氧化劑)的化妝品來提高皮膚質量無可厚非,但不要浪費錢去使用清潔品。

  “Many cleansers have anti-aging ingredients, but they’re typically not in high enough concentrations or in contact with your skin long enough to provide significant results,” says Dee Ann Glaser, M.D, professor of dermatology at St. Louis University.

  醫學博士、聖路易斯大學皮膚學迪·安·格拉瑟教授說:“許多清潔品都有抗衰老的配方,但它們往往含量不夠高,與肌膚接觸時間也不夠長,根本達不到去皺目的。”

  Skin solution: Use a plain, gentle cleanser, like Neutrogena Night Calming Nourishing Cream Cleanser. It’ll probably cost less than one with wrinkle-smoothing ingredients. Then slather on an anti-aging lotion, serum or cream, which stays on skin long enough to penetrate and yield results.

  皮膚保養大法:使用最普通的溫和清潔品,如露得清晚間營養滋潤潔麵乳,它比包含去皺成分的同類產品更便宜。洗完臉之後塗上抗衰老的乳液,保持一段時間使得其能深入皮膚起作用。

  7. Stressing out 24/7

  7.適當減壓放鬆

  If you’re chronically worried (or sleep deprived), your body is pumping out stress hormones non-stop.

  如果一直胡思亂想、擔心這擔心那的話,你的身體會不停地分泌壓力荷爾蒙。

  “Cortisol, the major stress hormone, breaks down collagen, which leads to sagging skin and wrinkles and causes inflammation,” says Amy Wechsler, M.D., a New York City-based dermatologist and psychiatrist.

  醫學博士、定居紐約的皮膚科和精神病科醫生艾米·韋克斯勒說:“皮質醇是最主要的壓力荷爾蒙,它會破壞膠原蛋白,造成皮膚鬆弛和炎症。”

  Also, when your body is in a fight-or-flight state, most nutrients and oxygen go to the major organs, not skin. And chronic stress and anxiety can lead to frown lines and a furrowed brow.

  而且,當你的身體處於緊張狀態時,大多數營養和氧氣將會進入主要器官而不是皮膚。長期壓力和焦慮可能導致深皺紋,特別是眉頭皺紋。

  Skin solution: Figure out what helps you relax – a chick flick, coffee with a friend, yoga class – and do it regularly.

  皮膚保養大法:找出一種能幫你放鬆的方法——看言情電影、與老友喝一杯咖啡、上瑜伽課——而且要經常定期這麼做。

  Exercise is another great stress-reliever: It boosts blood flow, bringing oxygen and nutrients to the skin and giving your complexion a rosy glow.

  做運動也是一個很好的減壓方式:運動能加速血液流動,將氧氣和養分輸送到皮膚,讓你的麵容看起來光彩照人。

  If all else fails, deep breathing and quiet time can help.

  如果以上方式都在你身上行不通的話,靜靜地深呼吸也可以起作用。
