Stress and skin aging

Skin Aging has serious common signs of stressed out skin.

In addition to aging skin, stress directly affects certain characteristics. Here I would like to mention which are the most common signs of stressed out skin.  

- Dark circles under your eyes: When your body is under stress, the capillaries under your eyes can break, leaving you with dark circles. Once the stress dissipates, your body can heal. But long-term stress can cause permanent dark circles.

- Bags under your eyes: One of the worst side effects of stress is not being able to sleep. When you lose sleep, fluid builds under your eyes, giving your eyes a puffy, tired look. When you do get your sleep, this can be corrected. However, continuous stress makes this unsightly feature permanent.

- Wrinkles: When worry and stress have you fixated on certain problems, your brow is constantly furrowed or your mouth remains tight and pursed. If you’re constantly frowning or your mouth is often tight, these stress lines can become permanent.

- Acne: Stress doesn’t cause acne but it can aggravate your already sensitive skin. How this process is happening?  It seems that stress causes the skin to produce more oils through stress hormones, and these oils are responsible for clogging the hair follicles, thus leading to pimples.
