We all want to look younger and hipper. Though we cannot claim to reverse time, we can definitely freshen up our look which can take years off our face. The list of the latest anti-aging potions on the market—from battery-powered patches to cell regeneration creams is endless.
For starters, get rid of everything in your closet that doesn't make you feel good as soon as you put it on. Discard anything that's too big, too small, stained, ripped or discolored. You don't want to be tempted to wear it—and you never want to look frumpy, dowdy, shabby or old, even if there's no one else around. Because the most important person you need to impress is you. So here are a few other easy ways for you to feel fabulous and look years younger fast!
If you've always had short hair, let it grow a bit. If you always wear it straight, see what happens when you let your hair go wavy and natural on its own. Try not to use too many hair products though hair shampoo and conditioner is a must. Hair condition counts and if your hair is dry and dull, uses a conditioner to give your hair a brilliant, lustrous sheen.
The older you get, the less foundation you should use. A heavy foundation looks cakey, fake and makes you look much older than you actually are. At this age, your skin should be clear, even-toned and blemish-free. If you have good skin, you want your natural glow to shine through. If you don't, try to get your glow from a tinted moisturizer, light foundation or luminizing treatment product. Always go in for dermatologically tested and non comedogenic products which do not cause break outs.
One common blunder women make is going for dark colored lipsticks as they get older. Dark lip colors age you. They bleed into lip lines making them look smaller and thinner than they are. Pink lipsticks give you a natural, shiny, glossy look that looks fresh at all times. At a certain age, you want everything on your face to be natural-looking and pink lipstick is flattering on almost every woman.
Don’t give up wearing heels just because you are getting older. Just wear them when you absolutely need them—at a party, at a dinner, out to lunch or at a wedding. Shoes with a medium heel make your legs look longer and leaner without sacrificing comfort. There is no denying that flat shoes are more comfortable but there's nothing like heels to give your confidence a boost and to coordinate your whole look.
