What things do make your skin deteriorate?

In my own view, the sun is one of the greatest enemies of unprotected skin as it causes irregular texture, wrinkles, pigmentation and dullness. Although you need vitamin D from sunlight, we all know too much of the sun is destructive to the skin.
Second, lack of sleep. If you are not getting enough sleep, it is going to be reflected in the condition of your skin.
You are going to see sallow skin and puffy eyes after a few nights of missed sleep.
Even worse, chronic sleep loss can lead to fine lines and dark circles under the eyes.
Lastly, weather and environment. Dry weather, polluted air, a dusty environment and an internally stressful body environment are harmful to the skin. These can cause damage to skin cells, causing deteriorating of the skin's support structures, decreasing collagen.

I think lacking of sleep and drinking too much of alcohol take away moisture from the body's cells causing skin deteriorate. Also, stress have intense effects on the skin. The level of oxygen flowing in the blood stream drops when under stress, making the skin appear pallid and gray around the eyes and mouth. Another reason is aging process especially for women and men after turn 35, wrinkles and fine lines begin to appear. Eventually spots become visible and the skin loses its even tone. Over time skin loses elasticity and firmness. This cannot be stop because it's natural. I think the only thing we can do is to not making it worse by avoid doing other causes of skin deteriorate.

Lack of sleep;You generally notice the effects of a bad night's sleep in your skin's appearance,
but lack of sleep causes more serious long-term effects.
When we sleep our metabolic activity is at its maximum,
our skin cells are regenerated in cellular division and blood flow
and brain activity increases by 200-300 percent.
Stress;Most of the physical changes associated with stress have intense effects on the skin. Hormonal imbalances associated with extreme tension cause blood vessels to stretch
and as a result a circulatory imbalance leaves the skin dry, flaky and susceptible to irritation.
The level of oxygen flowing in the blood stream drops when under stress, making the skin appear pallid and gray around the eyes and mouth. On the other hand problems like eczema, psoriasis and skin eruptions can get substantially worse when under the pressure of stress.

Find any anti-stress activity and do it on a regular basis.  
Whether it is yoga, a walk, or listening to music you can decrease the
amount of stress hormones you produce almost instantly.  
When you relax, you reduce the number of neuropeptides
and other stress hormones (like cortisol) that cause your skin to function poorly.
