Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Sleep
• Fruit and vegetables
• Omega-3 fatty acids
• Water
• Makeup
• Cardio and strength training exercise

1. Manage stress and keep a positive outlook. Stress can wear you down both mentally and physically, so keeping it under control can keep it from showing on your body. Take a few deep breaths daily to help you slow down.
2. Get enough sleep. Most people need between seven and nine hours a night. To properly calculate what you need on a week off from work, fall asleep and wake up naturally.
3. Eat a wide variety of colorful fruits and vegetables. The nutrients contained in fruits and vegetables help give them their color. So by eating a variety you can be assured to get the right vitamins.
4. Include foods containing omega-3 fatty acids. Good fats help keep skin plump and looking young.
5. Drink water. Water keeps your skin hydrated which helps plump your face up, thus reducing the appearance of wrinkles and taking years off your appearance.
6. Apply makeup skillfully. You can give yourself an instant face lift by applying blush high on the cheek bones, followed by a thin layer of gel blush. Lips lose their fullness with age, so after applying lipstick add a touch of gloss to the center of the bottom lip to create a plump look.
7. Exercise to keep a youthful glow. Aim for cardiovascular workouts about five times a week for at least twenty or thirty minutes and strength training three to four times a week.
