Sun Protection
Sun Protection, sun protection and yes sun protection. Winter is right around the corner, but unprotected exposure to UV rays even on a cloudy day triggers premature signs of aging like wrinkles, fine lines, and pigmentation (and we are not talking about a tan here). Always, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF of 30 or higher (I use SPF 50) to protect your skin even during those not so sunny days. This could probably be the most important of all the antiaging tips. To give your skincare routine a kick, mix a drop or two of Bio-Oil with your favorite sunscreen to add a touch of hydration for a youthful glowing skin.

Balance that Diet
A balanced diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables plays a vital role in the prevention of premature skin aging (it’s a nightmare to be 30 yet look 15 years older). Antioxidants found in vitamins A, C and E are vital for a healthy skin. See the amazing benefits of Vitamin C for your skin.
Always Exfoliate
Exfoliation gets rid of dead and dull skin cells. But you have to do it with care because harsh doesn’t mean deep. Harsh cleansing irritates the skin and accelerates the process of skin aging. So, exfoliate gently and regularly. You can go the Bio-Oil way by mixing two to four drops of Bio-Oil with four teaspoons of organic brown fine sugar to exfoliate your skin.

Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize
A moisturizer a day will keep the dermatologist away. Moisturizing locks in the skin moisture and improves the overall skin functions, leaving you with a healthier and hydrated skin, and eventually reveals a youthful glowing skin. You can treat your skin to a daily night mask infused with drops of Bio-Oil for a night boost of vitamins and lavender.

Exercise
Well, some people wonder how exercise comes into these top antiaging tips, but it does. This is because regular exercise improves circulation and boosts the immune system which in turn, gives the skin a more youthful appearance. Exercise also tones muscles which helps keep the skin taut and supple.
Although you might not see the results overnight if you start following these antiaging tips for a youthful glowing skin, eventually you will see a good change if you keep at it. Remember, patience is key.
