✨ Why Our Skin Ages: Causes and Natural Solutions with SuperYouSkin

Skin aging is a natural and inevitable process, but understanding why our skin ages allows us to take effective action to slow it down.
With the right lifestyle choices and natural skincare treatments, it’s possible to maintain elasticity, glow, and skin health for longer.
In this guide, SuperYou explains the main causes of skin aging and how you can protect your natural beauty effectively.
🧬 1. Intrinsic Aging: The Biological Clock
Intrinsic aging—also called chronological aging—is determined by genetics.
As we age, production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid naturally decreases.
This leads to:
-
Fine lines
-
Loss of firmness
-
Drier, thinner skin

☀️ 2. Extrinsic Aging: Environmental Impact
Extrinsic aging is caused by external factors, such as:
-
Sun exposure (photoaging)
-
Air pollution
-
Lifestyle habits (diet, smoking, stress)
UV rays are the main culprits, generating free radicals that damage skin cells and accelerate aging.
SuperYou Tip:
Shield your skin daily with a natural high-protection SPF cream.

🥦 3. Nutrition and Oxidative Stress
Poor nutrition accelerates a process called glycation, where excess sugar binds to collagen fibers, making the skin stiff and brittle.
Nutrients you need:
-
Antioxidants (vitamin C, vitamin E)
-
Omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish, chia seeds)
-
Polyphenols (berries, green tea)
Managing oxidative stress through diet helps reinforce your skin’s internal defenses against aging.

🌙 5. Sleep and Relaxation
Nighttime is when the skin’s natural regeneration processes are most active.

-
Skin renewal

Collagen production

Toxin elimination

Nourishing your body from within

Adopting healthy habits
you can keep your skin youthful, resilient, and glowing.
