Bacon lovers, your taste for salty, cured meats may be wrecking your skin. Research has found that the nitrates, sulfites and sodium in bacon trigger inflammation, and that inflammation could damage your skin, leading to everything from rosacea to acne to wrinkles.

And since the average person eats 18 pounds of bacon a year, it could very well be the reason your skin is acting up.

Johns Hopkins doctors say having long bangs is good for us. Because it shields the forehead from sun damage. In a study, both male and female teenagers whose long bangs draped across their forehead had healthier skin under their bangs than on the rest of their faces. The doctors dubbed the discovery “the big bangs theory!” And your longer bangs could reduce your risk of skin cancer.

If you take glucosamine to protect your joints, then have you looked in the mirror lately? Because your skin probably looks pretty amazing, too! A study in the Journal of Dermatologic Treatment showed a 34% reduction in visible wrinkles and fine lines in people who took a glucosamine supplement. And The Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology says glucosamine can also help wounds heal faster, improve skin hydration, and decrease wrinkles when taken as a supplement. So what gives it these potent skin powers? Well, glucosamine is a building block for hyaluronic acid, which hydrates the skin and plumps it up. You’ve probably seen skin serums with that ingredient. Well, these studies show that ingesting glucosamine can have the same effect, if not better! It’s good for our joints, because it lubricates them, helps them retain water, and promotes collagen, and it can have the same effect on our face. The experts say talk to your doctor about taking a supplement. The recommended dose is 1500 milligrams a day – and you’ll see a 34% reduction in lines and wrinkles within 5 weeks.

Here’s something you’ll probably never hear from your dermatologist: Get intimate with your partner. According to dermatologist, Dr. Amy Wechsler, in a study of older couples, those who were intimate 3 times a week had skin that looked approximately 7 years younger. That’s because getting intimate releases human growth hormone, which makes skin firmer and more elastic.

…try some blueberries, first. Research at the University of Hawaii found the antioxidants in blueberries slow the formation of fine lines and wrinkles… because they boost production of collagen and elastin, the inner structure that keeps our skin smooth and supple. Those same compounds also help heal damaged skin – making it look younger and healthier, again.

When you’re applying eye cream, dab it on from the outer corners of your eyes inward. According to dermatologist Leslie Baumann, that’s the direction your lymph fluids flow, so it encourages the fluids to keep moving and decreases puffiness.
