How your sleeping position is making your skin age faster"},"content":{"rendered":"

From its collagen-boosting benefits<\/a>, there is plenty of science behind \u201cbeauty sleep\u201d. However, did you know that something as simple (and seemingly harmless) as your sleep position could cause your delicate skin to age prematurely?<\/p>

This may come as a surprise but sleep is in fact the second most common cause of wrinkles. Following exposure to sunlight<\/a> or UV rays, nestling your face into a pillow can in fact \u201cstamp\u201d wrinkles onto your skin. <\/p>

What Are Sleep Wrinkles?<\/strong><\/span> <\/h2>

Sleep wrinkles \u00a0are formed as as result of pressing your face into the pillow as you sleep. Given that you spend more of your time sleeping relative to making facial expressions (i.e. frowns, or smiles), sleep-induced wrinkles could be aging you far more than you think.<\/p>

And unlike expression lines (which you can avoid by wearing sunglasses<\/a> to prevent squinting in the sun), it\u2019s harder to \u201ctreat\u201d sleep wrinkles. Tweaking your sleep position is the only way to prevent sleep lines<\/a>. <\/p>

In the gallery above, we\u2019ve outlined the most common sleep positions<\/a> and investigate how they contribute to fine lines and wrinkles<\/strong>. Are you guilty of any?<\/p>
