Look Years Younger

We all grow older, it's a natural process. But that doesn't mean that we have to look old! Quite the contrary! Here are ten tips to looking years younger so you never have to look your age!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1
    Stand tall!
     
    Stand tall!

    “Stand up straight!” Did your mom used to yell at you about your posture? Mine did! It’s true, if you stand up straight, you look taller, appear slimmer, seem to have more confidence and it shows. Stand up tall and be proud!

  2. Step 2
    Brighter whiter teeth

    Go to the dentist. Have your teeth cleaned and whitened. White teeth always appear to be healthy and can make the years disappear from your face.

  3. Step 3
    Sleep tight!

    Have a good night’s rest. It’ll make you feel better in general, will make you more cheerful, and will reduce those blasted dark circles beneath your eyes. Get rid of those and you look so much better and younger!

  4. Step 4
    Exfoliate

    Are your eyelids droopy? Pick them up! Just use eyeliner. Very effective.

  7. Step 7
    It's okay to touch up your eyebrows... just don't over do it!

    Do not over pluck your eyebrows. As you age, your eyebrow hairs are less likely to grow back.

  8. Step 8
    Skip the face powder!
     
    Skip the face powder!

    If you have some wrinkles on your face, you might want to rethink powdering your face. The powder will fill the lines and actually draw more attention to them.

  9. Step 9
    A manicure makes your nails and hands look much younger!
     
    A manicure makes your nails and hands look much younger!

    Treat yourself to a manicure! Nails that are ragged and chipped are not appealing but well defined and sculpted nails look wonderful. Apply some hand lotion (don’t forget to rub some into the cuticle!) and your hands and nails will look much younger.

  10. Step 10
    SMILE!
     
    SMILE!

    The biggest and greatest tip to make the years melt away: smile. It makes you happier and the people around you. If you smile, you’re happy and that’s all that matters!

Tips & Warnings
  • The happier you are, the more the wrinkles are erased from your face and the younger you look, naturally!
  • Attitude is key.
  • Keep your chin high and shoulders back.
  • Walk tall with your head held up!
  • Smile, you're beautiful!
