Wrinkles on the neck and décolleté are some of the signs of the passing of time, which unlike facial wrinkles, are often visible even on young skin.
Just like facial wrinkles, neck and décolleté wrinkles can also appear on the skin due to a combination of factors: genetics, lifestyle, habits and posture.
In this article we will see together how to prevent and fight them thanks to the right cosmetics and some little extra advice!
How do wrinkles form on the neck and décolleté?
The skin on the neck and décolleté is very fragile and thin , like that around the eyes: here the skin barrier is weaker, the skin produces fewer lipids and, over time, less collagen and elastin . This means that the wrinkles that form in this area can be up to 5 times deeper than facial wrinkles!
Furthermore, this is an area that is highly stressed by repetitive movements , such as bending the neck downwards ; this attitude is encouraged by the use of smartphones which give the name to the new phenomenon of Tech neck.
Keeping the neck flexed compresses the skin and increases muscle tension, thus promoting the appearance of the famous "necklaces of Venus", the horizontal wrinkles of the neck , which are thus starting to become more and more frequent even on the youngest skin.
In addition to technological habits, there are other factors that affect the appearance of wrinkles, such as smoking, exposure to the sun, and a poor diet that is not good for the skin.
How to combat wrinkles on the neck and décolleté
To prevent and combat wrinkles on the neck and marks on the décolleté, a correct daily skincare routine is essential, just like for the face!
Don't forget your neck and décolleté in your daily beauty routine (and, while we're at it, remember to treat your earlobes too !)
Cleanse your face, neck and décolleté morning and evening, with a gentle cleanser suitable for your skin. If you use a purifying cleanser for your face, you can use a neutral cleanser or a cleanser for dry skin for this area.
Then apply the toner, serum and cream , with a delicate massage from the bottom up and from the inside out.
Choose specific cosmetics for this area of the body, such as those found in the Yuniwa Cosmetics Anti-age Neck and Décolleté Routine
A routine designed for the needs of this area of the body, with precious ingredients such as Diamond Powder, Bakuchiol, Caffeine, Green Tea Extracts, Biomimetic Peptides that combat sagging skin, prevent wrinkles, blemishes and loss of elasticity.
You can use the Anti-Age Routine in various ways, depending on the needs of your skin:

Neck and décolleté wrinkles: extra tips
As we have seen, keeping the neck lowered for a long time causes pressure on the skin that leads to the formation of wrinkles.
Here are my extra tips to combat neck wrinkles:
-
Watch your posture ! Keep your chin up, with your gaze facing forward. Your shoulders and neck are straight, but relaxed: your neck will thank you too!
-
When using your cell phone or tablet, bring it to face height, bending your arm at 45°.
-
When talking on the phone , never hold it between your shoulder and ear; if you need to have your hands free, earphones are the best choice.
- Adjust the height of your PC monitor : your gaze should be directed forward, not downward.
- A good anti-wrinkle routine, continues in bed too! To prevent wrinkles on the neck and décolleté, the best position to sleep in is on your back, so as not to crush the area.
The neck and décolleté very easily reveal the signs of aging. But even the hands can do so in a very visible way! Discover in this article our guide to always have perfect and hydrated hands !
