Fountain of Youth Beauty Tips
We all want to maintain our youthful looks as we age. However, our bodies are designed to deteriorate as we move through life, leaving signs such as crow's feet and gray hair. Busy women on the go or with families are more susceptible to aging conditions, spared little time to care for themselves. Fortunately, you can employ a few beauty tips to help maintain a younger look. Does this Spark an idea?

Crow's Feet
-
Perhaps one of the more noticeable aging signs, crow's feet are crinkly lines around the eyes. Use moisturizing creams daily to help prevent crow's feet, as dry skin is a leading cause of the condition. Drink more water daily to keep your skin moisture regulated. Cut back on tea and coffee; toxins in both drinks can bring about crow's feet. Stop smoking if you do. Smoke that drifts around the eyes can irritate and make them squint. This greatly increases your chances for developing the lines.
Gray Hair
-
Gray hair is difficult to treat because it tends to be more coarse than regular hair. Apply a 20 percent peroxide solution to your gray hair daily to soften it. Leave the solution in for 10 minutes before rinsing. This opens the hair cuticles, allowing for other colors to grow among the gray. Apply a color applicator afterwards. You can also seek professional treatment from a stylist. Most women with semi-gray hair choose this option. However, it is more costly to use a stylist than to color your own hair, and you will likely have to make frequent visits to maintain the coloring.

Dry Lips
-
Our lips tend to get flakier and drier as we age. They also begin looking more wrinkly and thinner. Use a rich lip balm, lip treatment or a colored healing gloss to help restore moisture in your lips and make them appear more full.
Hand Lines
-
Treat aging hand lines by using alpha hydroxy acid. Used in chemical peels, the acid is useful in rejuvenating skin and erasing lines. When applied to hands, hydroxy gets rid of dead skin cells and helps boost new cell growth. This gives off a smoother texture, making lines harder to notice.
