The Anti-Aging Secret To help You Look Younger


Aging is a natural process that cannot be stopped. Look younger naturally by having a positive attitude always, eating a balanced diet and sufficient sleep.

You can still have beautiful flawless skin if you put in effort to take proper care of your skin.

Start with Primer

If it’s too late to prevent the laughter lines and wrinkles, a good skin care regime and the right makeup can make a world of difference. As we age, our skin gets drier and thinner, and the beauty products that once worked for us may not seem to work quite the same years later. But this isn’t necessarily the case. A good quality primer can help fill up wrinkles, even out your skin, and create a smooth canvas for you to work on.

Save Foundation for Last

Applying foundation directly onto aging skin may prove to be a huge mistake. Contrary to popular belief, a thick coat of foundation does not conceal fine lines, but instead makes them even more defined when they dry up and crack. Try this for a change: apply moisturizer, followed by primer, and then gently dab a thin, light layer of liquid foundation for a nice, beautiful finish.

Keeps Your Lips Moist


The unfortunate truth about wrinkles is their ability to creep across our forehead, our eyes, and believe it or not, around and on our lips too. When lipstick thins and dries out, it seeps into the cracks on your lips, making these wrinkles and lines even more visible. To prevent this from happening, simply moisturize your lips before applying lipstick, and bring lip balm with you to keep your lips moist through the day.

Work the Eyes

There’s no emphasizing enough the importance of proper eye makeup. Because we draw so much attention to our eyes, spending a little extra time on eye makeup might be a good idea. Playing up your eye makeup can make you look younger and fresher. It’s all about choosing the right shades of eye shadow and adding the right amount of colour to your face.

Accentuate the Shape of Your Eyes


One common sign of aging is drooping eyelids. It’s almost impossible to divert attention from the eyes, especially when you’re in a face-to-face situation. Before you start shying away from others, here’s something that could help – a good ‘ol eyeliner. Create the illusion of bigger, brighter eyes by applying a thin streak along your lash line and using it to enhance the shape of your eyes.

Thicken Your Brows

Have you ever noticed how much older someone can look with thinner, sparser eyebrows? Eyebrows don’t just help you express emotions; they provide a frame to your face, giving it a more defined shape and character. As we grow older, however, our brows grow thinner and grayer. To have your eyebrows looking thick and luscious all over again, use an eyebrow pencil that complements your hair colour and fill it in till you get a flawless, fuller look.

Whiten Your Teeth


Needless to say, yellow-stained teeth can make you look a lot older and far less attractive. On the other extreme end of the scale, having clean, white teeth gives you confidence and encourages you to smile, making you look more beautiful both inside and out. Try whitening toothpastes, though they often don’t do the job, or go for a couple of teeth whitening treatments instead.

Love Your Antioxidants

Antioxidants are essentially vitamins and minerals that have the ability to fight damage caused by free radicals, while minimizing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Common foods that are rich in antioxidants are kidney beans, red beans, blueberries, strawberries, prunes, and apples. While it is best to get them through the consumption of natural foods, you can also take supplements or apply antioxidant creams directly to your skin.

The Paradoxical Consequences of Fitness

Image
Despite all the ravings that indulging in a healthy lifestyle can be the best thing that can happen to anyone, there is a side of fitness that is both fascinating and bewildering. Something so good can also evoke negative sentiments. Yet, this just goes to show that life is never perfect. Too Fit Is there such a thing as too fit? I didn’t really realize until in recent years where I would hear comments such as; ‘That guy is just too muscular.’ Notwithstanding that we don’t refer to steroid junkies, there are some guys that have really invested a lot of time in the gym or their sports to develop a muscular physique. Yet, dissatisfaction from members of the public will still be made with concerns that he is just too muscular. This phenomenon is not restricted to men only as women struggle to fit the ideological framework of a body that has been dictated on them by the media. Not surprising that some women with a strong core and nice looking musculature are seen as too muscular by guys. T...
