Rughe viso: come contrastarle durante la notte

Over the years the metabolism slows down, the skin loses elasticity and wrinkles tend to appear. First they are small signs, related to expression, and then they become decidedly more evident and profound. Wrinkles are caused by the loss of collagen, which reduces the volume of the skin. If you are not a lover of creams and beauty treatments, here are some tips to prevent the signs of aging and keep some freshness even after the age of 40.

Fighting wrinkles is a challenge many of us face in our lives. There are those who dedicate more time to this battle and those who instead experience their appearance with greater philosophy, but a bit of everyone, sooner or later, will find ourselves in front of the mirror to deal with these signs of the passing of time.

Face masks, anti-aging creams and facial massages are certainly an excellent cure for preventing and combating these small imperfections, but did you know that it is possible to act on them even at night?

1. Sleep on your stomach

This advice is certainly useful if you are a person who has no problem sleeping in any position.
