The development of fine lines and wrinkles can be influenced by environmental factors such as the sun, smoking, lifestyle, and genetics. Fine lines often first appear around the eyes and mouth, as those areas are in constant movement.

Consistent, customized daily care with Clinique skincare is one anti-aging strategy. Clinique de-agers target visible signs of aging and help minimize the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Always protect skin from sun exposure, one of the main culprits of visible aging, by wearing sunscreen every day.

Fine lines are one of the first signs of aging. As skin begins to lose collagen and elastin, shallow fine lines can begin to appear around your eyes and mouth. Environmental aggressors like the sun can accelerate the appearance of fine lines.

What are wrinkles? More deeply set than fine lines, wrinkles can appear as you age. They may appear along your mouth and eyes where you may have once had fine lines, and may also form on your forehead and neck. Like fine lines, the appearance of wrinkles can be accelerated by external aggressors that damage skin.

Not sure at what age to start using anti-aging products? You can help delay the appearance of aging by using consistent, customized skincare that includes daily SPF.

First, committing to consistent, customized daily care is one of the best anti-aging strategies. At Clinique that starts with dermatologist-developed 3-Step Skincare. Twice a day is the recommended routine. Cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize to get—and keep—skin that looks radiant, glowing. Next, sun exposure can be harmful to the skin. Be vigilant about using a broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen daily. And wear a hat and sunglasses to protect skin and eyes when you're in direct sunlight. Avoid known stressors when you can—smoking, poor diet, stress, alcohol, and lack of sleep can cause skin lots of trouble.
