Wrinkles are normal signs of the aging process.  These are manifested by lines and creases that develop on the skin, especially on the body parts that receive the greatest exposure to the sun.

Wrinkles develop when the skin loses its elasticity. The most common types of wrinkles are fine surface lines and deep furrows.  Fine lines can be treated with natural home remedies or commercial skin care products, while deep furrows require more advanced beauty techniques to be removed.

Although the development of wrinkles is a natural occurrence, there are factors that you need to avoid as they can cause lines to appear prematurely on your skin.  These are smoking, excessive alcohol intake, excessive exposure to the sun, tanning booths, constant frowning, squinting, and regularly sleeping on either side of the face.

Here are some natural home remedies for wrinkles.  These can help to improve your skin and make you look younger:

1. Applying egg whites onto the skin.

Egg whites are loaded with protein which has a tightening effect on the skin.  This is just a temporary remedy but it can greatly help to make you look wonderful especially if you are on your way to a party or some great event.

Break regular-sized eggs and separate the whites from the yolks.  Beat the egg whites together and apply it on your entire face.  Let the egg white stay on your face for 30 minutes before washing it with cool water.

This will tighten your face, but its effect is good only for one or two hours.

2. Regular consumption of foods rich in vitamins A, C, E, and B complex.

Vitamins A, C and E are potent antioxidants that work to neutralize free radicals which can cause cell damage, premature aging, and wrinkles.  These vitamins are available in many green leafy vegetables, fruits and root crops such as carrots and sweet potatoes.

Vitamin B complex is another group of substances that are essential in achieving great healthy skin. Some of the natural food sources of vitamin B complex include whole grains, eggs, chicken and beef.

3. Regular consumption of pomegranate juice.

Pomegranate is rich in vitamin C and other antioxidants which help to combat free radicals that are the primary causes of wrinkles and early aging.  Drinking a glass of pomegranate juice everyday can actually help to promote young looking skin and prevent the onset or wrinkles.

2. Avoid frequent scrubbing of the face and don’t wash it with hot water and harsh soap.

Excessive scrubbing of the face and washing it with hot water and harsh soaps can remove the natural oil that keeps your skin healthy.  You should avoid it to prevent the onset of wrinkles.  Instead, use cool or lukewarm water and mild soap to wash your face.  It can help maintain the presence of natural oil that helps to keep your skin smooth and wrinkle-free.
