anti wrinkle cream for men

When we get older, we all got wrinkles. Sometimes people say that men will only look better when they are getting older, but that is hard for me to say if that is actually true.

On the Moquer blog you can actually already find multiple blog posts about anti-aging products, night creams for men and also products to fight dark circles under your eyes, but this blog post is specifically about anti wrinkle cream for men.

What causes wrinkles?

If often starts with that one wrinkle on your forehead and later you will get more and you will see crow's feet around your eyes and fine lines around your mouth. Smiling is very healthy, but it does cause wrinkles over time.

Men's skin is thicker and that is why wrinkles potentially are less noticeable, but a good anti wrinkle cream will definitely help. Especially when you start using one early on. Later I will mention a few great anti wrinkle creams for men.

What can you do to prevent wrinkles?

Anti wrinkle cream and even cosmetic surgery are ways to deal with wrinkles, but there are various things you can do yourself to slow down the process or to prevent that your wrinkles are getting very deep.

Already at age 25-30, you will start to notice fine lines and that is also the age that you have to start thinking about anti-aging products, like anti wrinkle cream.

1. Genetic factor

I will start with a factor that you have no influence over youtself: the genetic factor. When in your family men tend to get wrinkles fast and do not have a great looking skin or very firm skin, then the chance is high you will go down the same path. That is the way it is.

2. Sun exposure

I talked about it more often, because too much sunlight or UV is not good for anything, so also not for your wrinkles. Protect yourself with sunscreen when you are tanning and use a moisturizer with SPF on regular days.

3. Smoking

Smoking is really bad for your skin, so also bad for your wrinkles. There is not much use in using a good anti wrinkle cream while you are still smoking. It is difficult to quit smoking, but you will notice the difference on so many levels.

And talking about vices, alcohol will also not make your skin any better when you consume too much of it.

4. Hydration

It is always recommended to drink enough water and especially when you want to improve your skin. When your skin is dry, then fine line and cracks will be visible sooner. More water = less wrinkles over time. So, drink plenty of water on a daily basis to help yourself.

5. The elements

When you work outside a lot, in wind and rain, then you will see this especially on the skin of your hands and face. That is skin that is almost always exposed to the elements and then it ages faster and get wrinkly quicker. Dehydration, sun exposure, wind and polution are all factors that will make your skin age faster, so try to take that into account.

Anti wrinkle cream for men

As I said before, you probably want to start using anti wrinkle cream and other anti-aging products when you are round 30. Prevention is better than treatment. So, it is important to keep your skin looking smooth as long as possible. That works better than trying to get rid of your wrinkles at a later age.

Before I will mention a few great anti wrinkle creams for men, it is probably good to know how and why these anti wrinkle creams work.

How does an anti wrinkle cream work?

There is a few things that an anti-wrinkle cream does for your skin to help diminish fine lines and wrinkles over time. Usually you have to use a product for about two weeks on a daily basis to start seeing the results.

1. Hydration

First of all, anti wrinkle creams for men contain ingredients to hydrate your skin. A popular ingredient for this, is hyaluronic acid, because of its hydrating properties. Some creams also use oils, glycerin or panthenol to add hydration.

2. Firmness

When you skin loses its elasticity, it tends to get saggy. That is one of the most important reasons why your skin is starting to get wrinkly. So, to diminish fine lines and wrinkles, it is important to make your skin firmer and tighter. Retinol is an ingredient that helps your skin to boost the collagen production. Older skin will make less and less collagen over time.

3. Protection

Another culprit that damages your skin and increases wrinkles, are free radicals. Free radicals can be found in polution and harmful UV radiation. They have been linked to many diseases and problems.

Antioxidants help to combat free radicals. Many different vitamins and ingredients contain a healthy amount of antioxidants. Anti wrinkle cream usually contains one of more of these ingredients, because antioxidants help to treat wrinkles. You can find antioxiants in vitamin A, C, E and green tea, for example.
