After 30, we start noticing the first signs of aging, such as wrinkles and fine lines, that make us feel that our youth has gone away from us forever. But this is not true at all! As long as you take care of your skin and maintain an active lifestyle, you can look young for years to come. If you want to know how to look younger after 30, read on to find out more about some of the most effective anti-aging treatments available these days!
Reduce stress
You can’t see it or feel it, but chronic stress ages you. It makes skin look older because stress releases a hormone that leads to facial puffiness and dark circles under your eyes. Reduce your levels of cortisol by practicing relaxation techniques and getting enough sleep every night. Getting more exercise can also help reduce stress-related weight gain. One study published in The American Journal of Medicine found people who exercised had lower cortisol levels at night than those who did not.
Choose your skincare products carefully
Skin products can be expensive, but they can make a world of difference in how you look and feel. Take your time choosing your skin care products, find out which ingredients are right for your skin type and read as many reviews as possible before you buy anything. Getting rid of acne doesn’t have to be difficult or costly; there are some simple, natural remedies that will help clear up even chronic breakouts in no time. You just need to know what works for you! Here are some top tips on how to look younger after 30.
Use good quality makeup
A lot of women believe that wearing makeup is going to make them look older. But, on the contrary, using high-quality cosmetics and skincare products can make you look younger than your age. If you have a good quality skin care regimen with regular exfoliation and moisturizing, as well as a few key products like primer and foundation, you will not only see improvement in your skin but also notice that it’s going to be more luminous and glowing! Similarly, if you wear well-applied eye makeup that is complementary with your skin tone (and understated), there’s no doubt about it—it will definitely bring out your features. And finally if you use a brush rather than fingers for applying blush or bronzer; then yes!
Take care of your hair
If you’re in your 20s, you can probably get away with an aggressive regimen of heat styling, hair dye, and constant flat ironing. But in your 30s and beyond, you have to be a bit more careful with what you put on your head. Choose salon brands over drugstore products when possible, as they tend to use higher-quality ingredients that are better for color-treated hair (and yours). Also look out for formaldehyde-based products that can cause damage and breakage. Instead, avoid salon blowouts and flat irons; opt for air drying instead. The less manipulation of your hair, the healthier it will be—and a healthy head of hair is beautiful at any age!
Exercise and get enough sleep
Daily exercise is important for your overall health, but it’s also been proven to reduce wrinkles and increase skin elasticity. The key is to use exercise as a stress reliever and not a form of punishment. If you’re feeling stressed out and are using exercise as a way to punish yourself, you aren’t likely to stick with your plan for very long. You should also be getting enough sleep on a nightly basis. Sleep gives your body time to repair and regenerate tissue damaged during daily living. If you are running low on sleep every night, try setting aside some time each morning or afternoon for an activity that allows you total relaxation (reading, meditation, etc.). This will help ensure that you get enough ZZZs at night!
