Save face

Trying to save face? No, not in the normal, reputation preservation sense. Rather, are you literally trying to save your face? With the exception of cosmetic surgery and Botox injections, there really aren't any ways to truly stop wrinkles from forming on an aging person's face. That being said, however, there are ways to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Creams and moisturizing lotions help to keep skin from drying, which helps to some extent. This method, of course, is far from a secret. But, a lesser known reason for wrinkles (and, correspondingly, a lesser known method of reducing their appearance) has to do with what you're sleeping on.
Unlike cotton pillowcases, those made of satin will better allow your face to slide more smoothly and do not sap away much moisture from your skin. As a result, your sleep lines will tend to be less dramatic and your face will appear less wrinkled.
