The majority of us know that too much alcohol is not good for our health, but not many people know how damaging it is to our skin especially as we get older. The truth is that alcohol and aging skin do not have a healthy relationship because it really accelerates the rate at which the skin ages.

Aside from causing health problems like liver damage and hindering the body’s absorption of calcium, which could lead to osteoporosis, excess consumption of alcohol also causes pre-mature aging. People who drink a lot have the tendency to age twice faster than those who don’t.

Alcohol is bad for the skin because it damages the cells, dries out the skin and makes it look flaky and dull. The majority of those who drink also smoke, thereby making the situation even worse. Smoking also has drying effect on the skin; it also deposits free radicals inside your body.
