Body parts such as the face, neck, the back of hands and the top of the forearms are often exposed to sun and more prone to wrinkles. You should use a sunscreen above SPF 15 when going outdoors. You should also try to avoid sun exposure between 10 am to 4pm. Look out for shades, or cover up yourself with long-sleeved shirts and trousers. Wear sunglasses Issues such as the Cow’s feet around the eyes can be the result of repeated squinting or excessive sun exposure.

Put a curb on your alcohol consumption, and at the same time, consider buying an air filter for your home if you are living in an air polluted area.
