健康美容:女人舊貌換新顏的12大法則(中篇)

Sleeping on your side. 不要側睡


The fetal position may be comfy, but it's bad for your Skin. So is snoozing on your stomach“Pressing your face into the pillow eight hours a night for years can break down skin and cause wrinkles,” Lupo says.
嬰兒睡姿可能比較舒服，但對皮膚來說卻不太好，而趴睡則將肚子壓在身下呼吸也會有害健康。盧波說：“如果每晚八小時都把臉壓在枕頭裏睡覺，日積月累，皮膚質量會大幅下降，而且容易產生皺紋。”

Skin solution: Train yourself to sleep on your back and flip over if you wake up on your side or stomach.
皮膚保養大法：練習平躺着睡覺，一旦醒來發現側睡或趴睡姿勢一定要馬上翻過身來。

Sipping out of a straw. 別用吸管

Do you drink dark sodas, tea and coffee through a straw to prevent staining your pearly whites or to avoid putting your mouth on a can or bottle? It’s causing fine lines around your mouth.
你喝深色汽水或者咖啡的時候是不是爲了防止顏色弄到白色衣服上喜歡用吸管？或者是因爲懶得把嘴放進罐子或瓶子裏？但你可能不知道，這一舉動不經意間就在你嘴脣周圍製造了細紋。

“Over the long-term, pursing your lips to sip out of a straw [or suck on a cigarette] causes extra wrinkles around the mouth,” says skin care expert Renée Rouleau, creator of skin products and an esthetician to celebrities, including Lisa Rinna and Melissa Rycroft.
皮膚護理專家、護膚品發明家、名人（包括麗薩·瑞娜和梅麗莎·萊克羅）美容師雷內·魯雷說：“長期用吸管喝飲料（或抽菸時吸菸嘴）會使嘴的周圍新增皺紋。”

Skin solution: “Avoid drinking through straws and leave the pursing for kissing!” she says.
皮膚保養大法：不要用吸管喝飲料，如果要將嘴撅起來的話，還是多親吻吧！

Using wrinkle-fighters in the wrong product 使用正確的去皺產品

It’s OK to use products with anti-aging agents, such as retinol, peptides and antioxidants, to improve the skin’s appearance, but not in a cleanser. It’s a money-waster.
使用含有抗衰老物質（如視黃醇、肽和抗氧化劑）的化妝品來提高皮膚質量無可厚非，但不要浪費錢去使用清潔品。

“Many cleansers have anti-aging ingredients, but they’re typically not in high enough concentrations or in contact with your skin long enough to provide significant results,” says Dee Ann Glaser, M.D, professor of dermatology at St. Louis University.
醫學博士、聖路易斯大學皮膚學迪·安·格拉瑟教授說：“許多清潔品都有抗衰老的配方，但它們往往含量不夠高，與肌膚接觸時間也不夠長，根本達不到去皺目的。”

Skin solution: Use a plain, gentle cleanser, like Neutrogena Night Calming Nourishing Cream Cleanser. It’ll probably cost less than one with wrinkle-smoothing ingredients. Then slather on an anti-aging lotion, serum or cream, which stays on skin long enough to penetrate and yield results.
皮膚保養大法：使用最普通的溫和清潔品，如露得清晚間營養滋潤潔面乳，它比包含去皺成分的同類產品更便宜。洗完臉之後塗上抗衰老的乳液，保持一段時間使得其能深入皮膚起作用。

Stressing out 24/7 適當減壓放鬆

If you’re chronically worried (or sleep deprived), your body is pumping out stress hormones non-stop.
如果一直胡思亂想、擔心這擔心那的話，你的身體會不停地分泌壓力荷爾蒙。

“Cortisol, the major stress hormone, breaks down collagen, which leads to sagging skin and wrinkles and causes inflammation,” says Amy Wechsler, M.D., a New York City-based dermatologist and psychiatrist.
醫學博士、定居紐約的皮膚科和精神病科醫生艾米·韋克斯勒說：“皮質醇是最主要的壓力荷爾蒙，它會破壞膠原蛋白，造成皮膚鬆弛和炎症。”

Also, when your body is in a fight-or-flight state, most nutrients and oxygen go to the major organs, not skin. And chronic stress and anxiety can lead to frown lines and a furrowed brow.
而且，當你的身體處於緊張狀態時，大多數營養和氧氣將會進入主要器官而不是皮膚。長期壓力和焦慮可能導致深皺紋，特別是眉頭皺紋。

Skin solution: Figure out what helps you relax – a chick flick, coffee with a friend, yoga class – and do it regularly. Exercise is another great stress-reliever: It boosts blood flow, bringing oxygen and nutrients to the skin and giving your complexion a rosy glow.
皮膚保養大法：找出一種能幫你放鬆的方法——看言情電影、與老友喝一杯咖啡、上瑜伽課——而且要經常定期這麼做。做運動也是一個很好的減壓方式：運動能加速血液流動，將氧氣和養分輸送到皮膚，讓你的面容看起來光彩照人。

Relying on makeup for sunscreen. .不要過分依賴防曬化妝品

Lots of makeup claims to have sunscreens that block harmful rays, but it’s probably not enough to ward off skin damage.
很多化妝品都聲稱有防曬成分阻擋有害射線，但實際上它們遠遠不夠用來防止皮膚損傷。

“Most makeup protects against UVB rays, but don’t block UVA rays, which cause fine lines, brown spots, enlarged pores and crepey-ness,” Glaser says. Plus, you need to slather on a lot of cosmetics to get the sunscreen benefit.
格雷瑟說：“大多數的化妝品都防護UVB紫外線，但對UVA紫外線卻沒有功效。UVA紫外線會導致細紋、棕色斑點、毛孔粗大和黑眼圈，而且即使無法防護UVA，但爲了要達到防護效果你還是需要塗上厚厚的化妝品。”

Skin solution: Instead, apply a moisturizer that protects against UVA and UVB rays (it’ll say that on the label) and then apply your makeup.
皮膚保養大法：在使用化妝品之前先塗抹一層隔離UVA和UVB紫外線的潤膚霜（標籤上會寫）。
