You really do not have to embark on the quest for the fountain of youth to keep your skin and appearance looking younger and more vibrant. If you want to maintain that rosy glow on your face or the suppleness of the skin on your face and neck, you just need to know some beauty tricks that will help mask your real age the moment you step out of your house.

A Good Night’s Sleep

A person who has puffy and raccoon eyes, which can be caused by sleep deprivation, will look old, no matter what his or her age is. Not having ample sleep can also make your face sag and your skin dull and sallow. For younger looking skin and face, make sure that you have an uninterrupted sleep of at least eight hours.

Focus On The Eyes

Beautiful looking eyes are important in making you look at least a decade younger. How do you make your eyes beautiful? First, do not over pluck your eyebrows. As soon as you reach the age of 30, you need to go easy on the plucking because there is a big chance that they won’t grow back. Furthermore, thin and overly arched brows will make you look stern and old, much like the stepmothers in the fairy tales you know.

As you grow older, your eyelids will start to sag. One way to look younger is by curling your eyelashes and putting some mascara. This will make your eye pop and open, making you look more youthful. Lastly, do not forget to use concealer to hide dark circles and eye creams to make the skin surrounding your eyes more elastic.

What’s On Your Lips?

When you are in your twenties, you can put whatever color of lipstick you like – pink, violet, black, brown and red. As you grow older, however, you need to look for shades that will flatter you and make your lips more firm and full. Stay away from brown and matte lipsticks because your lips will look drier and the lines on your mouth will be more pronounced. Be sure to use lipsticks that have gloss or moisturizer for a more gorgeous and irresistible lips.

Hair As A Crowning Glory

When you reach a certain age, having long hair is no longer flattering because your hair starts to thin and gray. Most women in their 60’s are better off with a short or mid-length hairstyle. You may also try getting some bangs, so the wrinkles on your forehead will be covered. Moreover, this is the best time to color or put some highlights on your hair.

Choose Creamy Make Up

As you grow older, the ability of your body to hydrate and moisturize your skin starts to falter. As a result, most menopausal women have dry lined face and sagging skin. In order to compensate for the dryness, it is wise to use creamy make up — blush, eye shadows, concealers, and foundations. Powdered make up makes your wrinkle and lines more visible.

Flash Those Pearly Whites

Wine, coffee, tea and even smoking can stain your teeth and can instantly make you look older. Be sure to pay attention to your dental health and use safe whitening products for your teeth. Besides, having pearly whites will make you feel more confident to smile a lot.

Mind Your Posture

To look and feel sexier and taller, all you have to do is to stand or sit up straight. Having a good posture can actually help you look thinner and more confident.

Hydrate And Moisturize

You need to accept the fact that you need all the help you can get in order to maintain soft and supple skin on your face, neck and body. To prevent the development of age spots, wrinkles, and other signs of aging, you need products that will help moisturize and hydrate your skin, and avert the aging process.
