Do you ever notice some older celebrities who have beautiful faces but ugly, wrinkled necks? Caring for your neck is just as important as caring for your face. Neck skin wrinkles just as easily and it is imperative you take measures to delay this as long as possible.
Here’s a picture of Chinese star Fan Bing Bing. As you can see, her face has been nicely preserved over the years but her neck – not so much:
Caring for your neck starts with your daily shower. Wash your neck using a natural soap. Use upward strokes as you wash your neck (downward strokes can cause sagging over the years).
Second step occurs after you get out of the shower. It is important to use a mask for your neck from time to time. You can find facial masks that extend to the neck in your local pharmacy (if you can’t, then just apply a regular facial mask to your neck area). These neck-covering facial masks look like this:
On the nights you aren’t using a mask, be sure to massage a lot of skin cream into your neck also using those same upward strokes you were using in the shower.
Strengthening the muscles in your neck is also an important practice to get into. You move your head from side to side slowly (doing this as part of a nightly relaxation ritual is ideal). Stretch all muscles around your neck. Don’t get into the habit of popping or cracking your neck as this will only cause problems with your spine and ligaments down the road and lead to improper posture and unsightly gait.
You must be sure to really protect your neck from the elements, including wind and, of course, the sun. In the summer months, use an SPF cream. In the winter, always bundle up with a scarf.
Following this regime, your neck will stay beautiful throughout your life.
