But these tips may help maintain your skin's youthful appearance: 1. Use sunscreen when outdoors, even in the winter. 2. Moisturize. Dry skin turns plump skin cells into shriveled ones, creating fine lines and wrinkles long before you're due. 3. Don't smoke. Even if you've smoked for years, you can still improve your skin's tone and texture by quitting. Need practical advice on diet and exercise?
