Wrinkles are folds in your skin, and they are also known as rhytides.  They occur due to aging and some environmental factors. Your skin produces lesser collagen and elastin as you age and at times it might lack enough moisture and get exposed to toxins. These factors contribute to the development of wrinkles. Rather than going for cosmetic enhancement, you can get rid of wrinkles naturally because mother nature has the answers to all our health problems. Let’s uncover ten natural ways you can get rid of those wrinkles on your face.

1. Olive Oil
 

Olive oil is a solution to many health issues including wrinkles making it one of the most effective home remedies. The oil was first used by Egyptians 5,000 years ago as a cosmetic product.

Pour a few drops on your hand, massage your face, and wipe with a towel before going to bed. You will wake up with a younger face the next morning. 

2. Consume Foods High in Vitamin C
 

There are many foods with high amounts of vitamin C that you can include in your diet to achieve a wrinkle-free face. Vitamin C builds collagen which assists your skin to look firm. Moreover, your skin is protected from UV rays.

Examples of foods rich in vitamin C are tomatoes, mangoes, chili peppers, broccoli, pineapple, strawberries, etc. You can also use vitamin C serum on your face for positive results.

3. Quit Smoking
 

Smoking damages your body organs. The ill-effects of tobacco are many, but most people don’t know that it ages your face prematurely. 

Also being around a secondhand smoke doesn’t only increase the risk of cancer, but even hurts your facial skin.

4. Apply Aloe Vera
 

After sunbathing, try applying the aloe vera gel. Its gel is rich in vitamins and minerals that are soothing to your face. 

Sunburns can damage or wrinkle your skin, and aloe vera gel has anti-inflammatory properties that help to ease the healing process to leave you with a smooth face. 

5. Eat Carrots
 

Carrots contain vitamin A which improves your vision and promotes collagen production. Just like vitamin C, vitamin A helps to keep the skin smooth and free from wrinkles. 

You can eat raw carrots. Also, you can boil them, blend them into a paste, mix it with honey, apply on your face, and wash it off after thirty minutes. 

6. Shift to Another Sleep Position
 

Some wrinkles on your face can be as a result of your sleeping position. When you press your face against the pillow the same way every night, you compress it.

After a while, your skin becomes weaker at different places than others, and those weak points develop into wrinkles. It’s advisable to sleep on your back.

7. Drink Green or Ginger Tea
 

The antioxidants in both green and ginger tea can slow the signs of aging.
Take a cup of tea every day to keep your skin beautiful.

8. Drink More Juice
 

Your skin lives on hydration, vitamins, and minerals and the best way to treat it right is by giving it what it wants.

Juices are made with various fruits and vegetables and contain skin-nourishing vitamins. You can drink the juice to quench your thirst and to fight wrinkles.

9. Apply Egg Whites
 

Eggs whites can be a remedy to your face wrinkles. There is nothing much to do except whipping those whites in a bowl and applying on your face. Wash it off with warm water after 15 minutes.

10.  Limit your Sugar Intake
 

Advanced glycation products can make you look older. Glycation is a process set off by sugar. Limit your intake of sugar and also avoid oil-rich foods to retain a youthful face.
