Billions are spent each year on cosmetic products that promise to erase wrinkles, lighten age spots, and eliminate itching, flaking, or redness. But the easiest and cheapest way to keep your skin healthy and young looking is to stay out of the sun.
Sunlight is the major cause of wrinkles, dry, and age spots. Your skin changes with age. For example, you sweat less which led to increased drought. Aging skin becomes thinner and loses fat, making it look less thick and smooth.
Underlying structure, tendons and bones in particular become more prominent. Your skin can take longer for themselves when injured.

These changes can be extended drastically by staying out of the sun. Although no one can really undo the damage caused by sunlight, the skin sometimes can restore itself. So it is not too late to protect yourself from the sun's harmful results.
5 Ways to slow down the aging process:
1. Wear protective clothing. A hat with wide brim shades your neck, ears, eyes and head. Look for sunglasses with a label saying glasses block 99-100 percent of the sunlight. Wear loose, lightweight, long-sleeved shirts and long pants or long skirts when in the sun.
2. Check your skin often. Seeing the changes in size, color, shape or feel of birthmarks, moles, and freckles. If you find changes that worry you, doctor. American Academy of Dermatology suggests that older, fair-skinned people have a check by a dermatologist every year as part of regular physical examinations.
3. Avoid artificial tanning. Do not use sunlamps and make-up tanning beds and tanning pills and tanning. Tanning pills have additional color that turns your skin orange after you take them. The FDA has approved an additional colors for coloring foods but not for tanning the skin. A large amount of color additive in tanning pills may be harmful. Makeup tanning products are not suntan lotions and will not protect your skins of sunlight.
4. Use sunscreen. Sunscreen rated in strength according to the sun protection factor (SPF), which runs 2-30 or higher. A higher number means longer protection. Buying products with the number of SPF 15 or higher. Also look for products that the label says. Broad spectrum (meaning they protect against both types of harmful sun rays (UVA and UVB) and water resistant (meaning they stay on your skin longer, even if you get wet or sweat a lot) Do not forget to reapply the lotion as needed.
5. Stay out of sunlight. Avoid the sun 10:00 to 3:00 This is when the sun's UV rays are strongest. Do not be fooled by cloudy skies. Harmful rays pass through clouds. UV radiation also can pass through water, so it will not be sure if you're in the water and feeling cool.
