If your anti-aging skin care routine focuses on the face, it’s time to give more TLC to other, oft-neglected areas of your body.
It’s normal to concentrate on your face when applying anti-aging solutions. After all, it’s the first thing people notice when you walk into a room. However, there are areas of your body that age faster. No matter how diligently you moisturize your T-zone, a part of your body is bound to give your real age away, and it’s not always a part that you expect.
Check out these areas of your body that age faster than others:
Hands
Your hands are always exposed to the elements, particularly the sun, so they tend to indicate your age more than any of your other body parts (surprise!). Your hands start aging in your 20s, but most people don’t recognize the signs until they are in their 30s or 40s. To keep your hands from looking old fast, make a habit of applying sunscreen during the day and thick moisturizing creams every night.
Elbows
Dry or loose skin on the elbow gives away your age. While there is little you can do about the aging of your skin in this area, avoiding the usual culprits such as smoking, stress, and dehydration will help delay the process.
Neck
As the skin on your neck is thinner compared to that on your face, it tends to age more quickly. According to makeup artist Bobbi Brown, you can conceal a “turkey neck” with a detailed scarf or a pretty blush, to draw attention away from the neck. If your neck has not reached its aging point, it’s a good idea to apply on it the same products you use on your face. Better yet, adopt a special skin care routine for that area.
