It is best to sleep on your back, as sleeping with the face all crunched up can cause creases which may lead to permanent lines. Also, elevate your head slightly with a pillow so fluids don't collect in the face, causing puffiness. If the pillow is too high, the neck will bend and the face curl towards the chest and impair breathing. There are special pillows designed to support the neck and keep you sleeping on the back that are very comfortable. See Resources. |

As we age, our skin loses water. Facial acupressure is a great way to destress your face and improve circulation, thus encouraging a more beautiful visage. |

Use flaxseed oil as a regular supplement. Lecithin helps to encourage the plumping of withered skin. Make sure to get adequate protein. Avoid squinting and frowning as this will emboss unnecessary lines into your face. What we think affects how we look. It is a known fact that anger can redden the skin, fear can whiten it and joy can make you radiant. Be a channel of love, compassion and kindness. |

Exercise increases the skin's temperature, improves circulation and helps to increase collagen production. It also delivers oxygen and nutrients to the skin. Get aerobic exercise several times a week. For rough scaly skin eat silica-rich foods like oats and bran and also tie a handful of either or both into a washcloth and use it to wash the skin. |
