1. Apply sunscreen daily. Dry skin intensifies wrinkles and can ultimately give you a washed out look. Find an Oil Free Sunscreen, preferably with an antioxidant to help repair some past sun damage, and for more protection use at least SPF 30.

2. Exfoliate your Skin. Get all of that dead skin off. Products such as cleansers, toners, and moisturizers can be more effective if they simply target the new skin cells right on. Dead skin gets in the way and acts as a barrier to the new skin. To keep your skin healthy and looking good, try to exfoliate at few times a week.
