HIDE YOUR AGE-Looking younger after 40

How old or young you feel is simply a state of mind. And if you take a few simple steps, you can not only look younger, you can feel the same too. And no you don't need to undergo plastic surgery either. Small changes can make a big difference in the way you look.

HOW CAN I HIDE MY AGE?This is how:
A.Makeup Tips:
. Apply moisturizer before foundation. Wait for ten minutes to allow the skin to absorb it.

.Cover flaws like pigmented patches with a foundation, or concealer that is a shade lighter than your skin tone.
. Use a creamy foundation diluted with a drop of water for lighter and smoother coverage.
. While choosing foundations go for beige or golden tones avoid pinks.
. Avoid powders if your skin is dry, but apply a soft shade blusher on the cheekbones going outwards and slightly upwards.
. Go for the soft look while applying eye make-up. Avoid eyeliners, use eye shadow or eye pencil to line the upper lids. Draw a line close to the lashes.
. Avoid harsh black eye pencils, go for brown or grey shades instead.
. Mascara helps to brighten eyes. Use a brush to separate the lashes for a natural look.
. Redefine the lip line with a lip pencil and fill in with lipstick, using a lip brush.
. Very dark lip colours, especially blue tones have an aging effect. Very light colours are also a no-no. Go for burgundy, plum, coral, bronze, copper or coffee shades.

B. Teeth whitening: Yellow teeth are associated with old age. In reality they are the result of coffee, red wine, our genes, and other habits. Whitening your teeth is easy; you can do it either with at-home products or do it in the dentist’s office.

C. Adopt a natural lifestyle. You will be healthier if you think before you put anything on your skin or eat/drink any food. Remember, if it is cheap, it is probably made from something cheap (or in other words, an artificial chemical produced from the cheapest raw materials). As we keep saying, it is better not to put anything on your skin than to put some cheap lotions or creams that are probably made from petroleum waste.
D. Accept yourself: If you have to(Related article) lose weight, try to do it, but stop feeling bad because you are (Related article)overweight. Do the best with what you have.
E. Have a great haircut and hair color: Gray hair does not look good on most people. And a bad or mediocre haircut does not either. It may look like a lot of money but try new styles and hair color. If you want to look younger, your color generally should be lighter than your original color.
F. Make your breath fresh: Nothing will turn people off more thanbad breath(click here for related article). And it is easy to take care of this. Brush and floss your teeth regularly, at least twice a day, if not after every meal. If you have constipation, do something about it. Use a mint after meals. Stay away from foods that have strong aromas (e.g. garlic). If it still does not improve, talk to your doctor.
G. Attitude: Think you are pretty/handsome, feel pretty/handsome, and act as such
H. Stay in shapeExercise regularly.
I. Eat balanced meals and count your calories so that you do not consume more calories than you need. Drink plenty of water; actually keep drinking till you cannot drink any more
