5 Ways to Increase Skin Elasticity

I adore my dad even though he did pass on some pretty strong genetic characteristic traits. The most prominent being deep, visible forehead wrinkles. A nice, sophisticated look for him, but not a great look for me.

I have learned ways to hide these bad boys by keeping my skin supple & elastic. Now I am going to share these secrets with you..

It's important to start from the inside out. One way to support skin elasticity through nutrition is by getting enough collagen.

You can get collagen through a collagen supplement or by drinking bone broth. Collagen Supplements have been proven to effectively improve skin elasticity & decreases wrinkles.

This makes sense since collagen makes up about 75% of the dry weight our skin. Since collagen breaks down as we age, supplements are super important!

Hyaluronic Acid is an ingredient for every skin type.

With its incredible ability to retain water, Hyaluronic Acid immediately plumps out the skin and smooths out fine lines and wrinkles.

My favorite way to apply Hyaluronic Acid is the Drops of Neptune Serum because it is so concentrated that just a couple of drops gets the job done.

AHA acids are a great way to encourage new skin growth. Periodic use of AHA acids is a great way to turn a new leaf and start fresh.

AHA acids work to break down the glue that holds dead skin cells together. This encourages the generation of new cell growth, which reveals fresh, more elastic looking skin. AHA's come in many forms but I personally like to use the Whipped Parfait Fruit Exfoliation Mask.

You can keep your skin hydrated using moisturizers with Lamellar Emulsifiers. Emulsifiers allow water and oil to stay together, but lamellar emulsifiers go another step further..

These emulsifiers organize the water and lipids into the same pattern as the lipid bilayer of our skin. This allows the cream to penetrate deeper into our skin to provide long lasting hydration.

Creams made with lamellar emulsifiers provide so much hydration that you can visibly see skin appearing more smooth & plump.

One of the easiest things to do is to drink enough water and wear your SPF. It might sound simple, but it will have the biggest impact.

You know the drill but here is your friendly reminder :) Apply sun protection and drink at least 9 cups of water every single day!
