4. Avoid perfume and jewelry
Putting on perfume every once in a while and wearing necklaces regularly won’t hurt your neck skin. However, using the wrong type of perfume and wearing heavy necklaces every single day may have a negative impact on your neck skin elasticity.
The compounds present in most perfumes can dry out the skin and make it less flexible. Just to be safe, don’t apply the perfume directly to the neck. Spray it on your wrists and use them to spread the fragrance around your neck. On the other hand, heavy necklaces can stretch the skin and cause some permanent wrinkles.
5. Moisturize your neck skin
Don’t focus your skincare routine solely on your face. You should do the exact same routine on the entire neck area, where the skin is equally sensitive.
And that means that besides moisturizing the neck, you should also exfoliate it to remove dead skin cells and keep the skin looking clean and healthy. This is one of the most effective and obvious ways to prevent neck wrinkles.
6. Don’t forget the sunscreen!
Excessive exposure to sunlight (ultraviolet radiation) is the most common cause of skin damage and wrinkles. And, as we have said earlier, it also damages the collagen present in the body.
If you want to reach your sixties with healthy skin and a younger-looking neck without any surgery you need to apply sunscreen every morning and re-apply it throughout the day at peak hours. Even during the winter.
