5 Tips To Look Younger

Looking younger is the goal of anyone older than a teenager. There are millions of cosmetics, lotions, and procedures that promise healthier, better looking, younger looks. Wading through the chaos to pick out what actually works is tough. However, there are a few simple tricks that anyone can do to keep themselves looking younger, longer. And they don’t have to break the bank.

1. Put lotion on your face, neck and hands– It sounds like a simple idea, but lotion keeps your skin looking young. It doesn’t matter if you buy it from the grocery store or Saks, all that matters is you keep your skin moisturized. Most people know about keeping their face soft and smooth, but is that the only place that age shows? No! As you age, wrinkles appear on your neck and hands also. Fight them by continually moisturizing those key areas.
2. Sunblock– Another no-brainer, sunblock is now included in most cosmetics. This happens for a reason. Sun damage does more to age your skin than almost anything else. To prevent wrinkles, age spots, and discoloration, apply sunblock every day, rain or shine. In fact, you may have to put it on more than once a day.
3. Eye cream– The skin around your eyes is the thinnest skin on your entire body. That means it is the first to go. You already get dark, puffy eyes when you don’t sleep well. Don’t let that turn into a permanent look. Using eye cream will keep the skin around your eyes soft and decrease the winkles, swelling and darkness.
4. Lipstick – Your lips can be just as abused as your hands. Keep them covered with moisturizing lipsticks, lip balms, or ointments. Make sure the cover includes a sunblock. If you keep your lips moisturized you won’t end up with ‘bleeding’ wrinkles when wearing lipstick.
5. Highlight– A simple highlighting stick works wonders for dark spots and wrinkles. Use the light-colored makeup to fill in any dark places on your face, making the wrinkles and dark under eye coloring virtually disappear. It will make you look years younger instantly.

These are just a few tips on keeping your skin younger and healthier looking. The key here is to start right away. It doesn’t matter how young you are, it is never too early to take care of your skin. An allover body moisturizer should be part of your shower regimen and will also help to prevent stretch and age marks in the future. It also doesn’t matter how old you are. Keeping your skin properly moisturized can erase some of the skin’s aging process. Take care of your skin and you will look younger, guaranteed.
