3 Natural Remedies For Getting Rid Of Wrinkles: Preventing Fine Lines, Dry Skin, and Aging Skin
May 5th, 2019 by Scarlett Olson
What Are Wrinkles?
Did you know what a rhytide is? I didn’t! A rhytide is a fold crease or ridge in the fabric or skin. It is from “glycation” which is one of the aging processes.
Wrinkles can also be caused from stress, loss of collagen, too much sun or even too much washing with harsh cleansers or soaps. Poor hydration, smoking, sun damage as well as an unhealthy diet can contribute to wrinkles in the skin.
The main causes of wrinkles:
#1 Decreased oil production in skin:
As we age, the skin begins to be more dense and less elastic. As the skin begins to lower its natural oil production, your skin can get dryer and less plump. Dry skin & aging generally lead to what is called “gray cells” which are skin cells that get stuck together and are not as flexible or hydrated as they were during youth. This is why an oil based moisturizer is truly the most important skin care product you will ever use.
#2 Ultraviolet (UV) rays can cause the skin to wrinkle.
UV exposure speeds up the aging process of the body. Exposure to UV rays breaks down the connective tissue of the skin, collagen, and elastin fibers which are found in the deeper layers of the skin. Without these fibers and collagen, the skin begins to lose flexibility and strength. As a result, the skin begins to wrinkle and sag prematurely.
#3 Smoking:
Smoking can lead to fine line wrinkles, especially mouth wrinkles, frown lines, eye wrinkles, crows feet, chin wrinkles, forehead lines and forehead wrinkles. Even if you've smoked for a long time, it is not too late to quit, and let your body heal itself.
3 Remedies For Getting Rid of Wrinkles:
1. Use a high quality face oil moisturizer.
Face oil replenishes the moisture your skin needs to stay hydrated. Face oil delivers vitamins and nutrients to the deeper layers of the skin, locks in moisture and softens the tiny lines and creases.
2. Pomegranate Seed Oil
A little sunlight is healthy because it helps us to produce melanin- this is our body’s natural mechanism to protect our skin. But avoid spending hours under the sun without SPF. Wrinkle formation and lines on face become worse with prolonged sun exposure. Using a face oil with Pomegranate Seed Oil can help disperse melanin in the skin and help reduce sun damage.
3. Red Raspberry Seed Oil
Use a face oil that contains Red Raspberry Seed Oil. Red Raspberry Seed Oil contains natural SPF that protects the skin from sun damage as well as antioxidants that protect the skin cells.

WHY USE A FACE OIL?
Oil Based Serum vs. Moisturizers (Cream)
Cream is made up of oil, water based ‘active’ or chemical ingredients, and emulsifiers (waxy binders to keep the oil and water together so they don't separate). The only beneficial part of cream that can be absorbed by your skin is the oil in it- but it is harder for those oils to absorb into your skin when it is blended with wax that sits like a plastic coating on top of your skin. Why use cream with all the extra fillers and iffy chemicals when you can just use the important part? Use pure oil as your moisturizer instead of cream and get better, longer lasting results.
Real QuotesFrom Dermatologists:
"In your late 30s, wrinkles suddenly look deeper because the skin's natural oils decrease, the moisture barrier breaks down, and the skin dries out. Most creams contain a little oil, but not enough to make a big difference in water loss. Because oils are lipophilic, or fat loving, they pass through the lipid layer of the skin faster, preventing water loss and plumping skin with moisture more effectively.” - Dermatologist DavidColbert, ALLURE MAGAZINE
“Facial oils are an excellent way to get antioxidants and vitamins quickly into the skin. Oils are absorbed quickly, and soften the appearance of fine lines.” -Celebrity Dermatologist, Dr. Gervaise Gerstner
