Are You Silently Ageing Your Skin Without Knowing It?
Skin ageing is totally natural and usually starts to begin in our late 20’s and 30’s…
But sometimes the simplest changes can help slow down the process.
Prevention is the best and most effective way to work against skin aging effects.
Did you know that the second cause of wrinkles is sleeping?
Squishing your face into a pillow for approximately 2,500 hours per year is like ironing wrinkles into the skin. Talk about accelerated ageing on your face!
For those times that you aren’t able to sleep on your back, use a silk or copper oxide pillowcase.
(Typical cotton pillowcase pulls and tugs your facial skin as you sleep.)
Silk or copper oxide fabrics help reduce wrinkles and crow’s feet as it causes less wrinkle-inducing friction, doesn’t dry out your skin, and has substantially fewer germs.
🧪 In A Clinical Study…
Participants who slept on a copper pillowcase saw an average 9% reduction in their crow’s feet over 8 weeks. Participants not sleeping on the copper cases saw no wrinkle reduction.
UV rays are one of the BIGGEST causes of premature wrinkles and aging.
Good news is this can be prevented through daily SPF and staying out of direct sun during the hottest part of the day.
Whether it’s overcast days, driving in the car, or working in front of a glass window—these myths that you can’t get burnt are what lead to unrecognized premature aging.
PRO TIP: Download a UV index app to notify you when you are at high risk of a sunburn.
So how about that whole fountain-of-youth thing?
When it comes to anti-aging remedies, experts are saying that the answer to our skin woes doesn’t lie in a jar or bottle, but rather LED light therapy. 🔴
You’ll never get the same results with topical skincare as you would with LED light therapy treatments.
Why?
It works its magic beneath the skin to stimulate the production of collagen, where even the best serums and creams can’t reach.
Science shows that red light therapy protects existing collagen and boosts new production.
With the help of one device like the Q-Rejuvalight Pro you can treat and prevent signs of ageing with red light therapy all from the convenience and comfort of your home.
And we’re not kidding… this method is backed by multiple clinical studies and clinical research.
🧪 In A Clinical Trial…
8 out of 10 subjects reported a significant reduction in wrinkles… And 9 out of 10 reported improved skin tone and enhanced smoothness.This is why Hollywood’s glowiest faces are all obsessed with LED masks!

Sugar isn’t so sweet when it comes to the effects it has on our skin.
Sugar damages your skin through a natural process called glycation. It destroys and degrades collagen and elastin in our skin (the main proteins that are responsible for making our skin look plump, firm and youthful)…
As time goes on that strong, firm barrier you had slowly becomes weaker and weaker, leaving you with early signs of wear and tear.
By simply adjusting your diet and cutting out/back on those sweet snacks and refined carbs, you can genuinely make a massive difference in your skin ageing.
No matter what you do… DO NOT go to bed with your make up on!
Make-up is made up of oily substances that leave your skin unable to breathe.
Your skin repairs itself as you sleep and when you leave it on you’re preventing this from happening.
This accelerates the aging process leaving you with more fine lines and wrinkles.
