How To Look Younger At 60
Aging is an inevitable part of life, but feeling old and looking old can be two separate things. We’ve put together a list of 20 tips to give you a vibrant and younger appearance, even at age 60 and beyond.
Tip 1. Exercise More
More exercise will improve your blood circulation, increase supply of collagen, and of course, eventually lead to weight lose.
Tip 2. Drink Less
We all know drinking can have some terrible effects on the body. Alcohol has been proven to accelerate the aging process in one’s eyes and face.
Tip 3. Relax More
A lot of stress will make you age much quicker, unfortunately. Relax by doing yoga, talking long walks or whatever you can do to be at peace.
Tip 4. Color Your Hair
For many, finding a few gray hairs may be the first sign of aging. Finding a licensed hair stylist to properly color your hair is the best way to ensure long-lasting results. Box color uses cheaper chemicals that can wear off and make the coloring look unrealistic.
Tip 5. Stop Smoking
This is a crucial step towards your long-term health and your efforts to look younger. Cigarettes, like alcohol, will add age to your face. Try e-cigarettes or nicotine gum if you are attempting to quit for the first time.
Tip 6. Less Sugar Intake
Sugar is an inflammatory food that can show signs of aging on your face. Sugar can also inflame your brain, making it harder to concentrate. Transition from consuming lots of sugar to some sweet fruits.
Tip 7. Always Use Sunscreen
More people need to start applying sunscreen at an earlier age. Using a sunscreen with a high SPF will help avoid redness or sunspots.
Tip 8. Moisturize Your Skin
Dry skin will appear old and cracked. Not using any sort of moisturizer will only highlight the problem areas.
Tip 9. Frame Your Face
Eyebrows actually play a huge role in making your face appear younger. Keeping your eyebrows trimmed and shaped will help frame your face, ultimately drawing attention to your eyes.
Tip 10. Drink More Water
This tip goes hand in hand with moisturizing. Drinking plenty of water daily will help your skin stay moisturized, naturally.
Tip 11. V-Neck Shirts
By simply wearing more V-neck shirts, your neckline will look more youthful and flattering.
Tip 12. Whiten Teeth
This is a popular action for seniors trying to look younger. Whiter teeth gives the impression that you are younger than you actually are. Purchase some of the many teeth-whitening products to remove any stains.
Tip 13. Eat More Grapes
Sorbitol gives grapes a sweetness and it is also a substance that attracts water when applied to the skin. Eating grapes will ultimately help your skin absorb and retain moisture.
Tip 14. Smile More
This simple step helps mentally and physically. There is no doubt people who smile appear younger and happier. Smiling more often will decrease the chances of wrinkles developing.
Tip 15. More Hobbies
Spend your time and money on the things you love doing. Whether it’s a golf course membership or vacations, do what makes you happiest.
Tip 16. Undergarments
Undergarments that don’t fit or fit awkwardly can give you an invisible waistline.
Tip 17. Tight Fitting Clothes
Choose to wear clothes that fit a bit tighter than you are accustomed to. The tighter fits tend to make one appear younger.
Tip 18. Build Strong Social Relationships
Forming strong social relationships is helpful for both the physical and mental health of seniors. Good friends can help to boost your energy and overall mood.
Tip 19. Facial Massages
Facial massages will increase blood flow to the face, providing more nutrients and oxygen for tissues. Daily massages of the jawline can keep its elasticity.
Tip 20. Lose Weight
If you apply all these tips to look and feel younger, the weight loss should come naturally.
