11. Raw Honey and Yogurt

Yogurt contains lactic acid that exfoliates the skin, and honey naturally hydrates the skin and removes bacteria. These two ingredients make the perfect combination for an exfoliating and hydrating mask that helps reduce crow’s feet, fine lines and wrinkles.

  1. Combine plain yogurt and honey in equal amounts and apply to the affected area.
  2. Leave on for 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water.

12. Maintain a Healthy Diet

Sugar destroys collagen, so the best way to protect your skin is to eliminate it from your diet. Fruits and vegetables contain essential amino acids, minerals and antioxidants that can help the skin stay hydrated, healthy and firm. Your skin also needs protein to build collagen and elastin, so make sure you’re getting enough protein in your diet!healthy food 2
