Lifestyle is written all over your face

Expensive lotions and potions won’t stop the clock, but watching what we eat and easing off on the sun and stress can reduce damage to our skin.

ARE you 50-plus and squinting with determined eye-slits avoiding those reading glasses? Or do you regularly like to sip your favourite tipple from a straw, pursing your lips with pleasure as the liquid flows into your mouth and down your throat?

Don’t frown now! But those repetitive facial movements — squinting, pursing, and furrowing your brows — all lead to fine lines and wrinkles, which can speed up how old your skin looks.
