Simple measures: These common sense measures are the mainstay of good, healthy skin: moisturization, photoprotection (ie photoprotective clothing and sunscreens), and... Healthy eating, sleeping and exercise habits!

Sunscreen: Most important is to protect from the sun by using a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher and reapplying every 2 hours if you're exposed to the sun. If you're outdoors also wear a hat and sunglasses. Remember that you get sun exposure even thru the car windows and office/home windows and just walking to and from your car. Wash and moisturize.

Sun Protection: One of the most important steps you can do to preserve your skin is sun protection. That includes a good facial moisturizer with broad-spectrum sunscreen that filters out both uva and uvb rays. Over time, these rays can cause wrinkles, brown spots, and even skin cancer. Better yet, if you are planning on a spending a day outdoors, wear a wide-brimmed hat and and sun protective clothing.
