8 Tricks to Look Younger

Age will always be inevitable. Women invest in beauty and skin care products that help slow down the ageing process. Before spending thousands of pesos on promising brands, remember that you can start with yourself and cost-effective products. Here is a list of simple beauty tricks that will make you look younger…or how to avoid looking older!

• Try having side-swept bangs and hair that reaches no longer than your shoulders for a change. Not only will you chop off few inches of your hair, you’ll also chop off few years than you actually are!
• Vampy red, plum and brown shades are very much in this season! They look good on a fun night with friends but wearing these colors especially during the daytime will age your looks. If your lips is on the drier side, opt for creamier lipsticks and lip glosses instead of matte shades. They settle into your lip lines and will look very unflattering.
• As we grow older, our skin becomes drier. If your skin is on the drier side, stick to cream products that give you a luminous effect. There are tons of blushes and eye shadows that give you a nice glow but be sure to avoid shimmery shades as they define your fine lines and wrinkles.
• Your eyelash curler and your favorite mascara should definitely be your best friends! Beautiful and flirty lashes will surely make your eyes “pop”.
• Don’t over-pluck! Thicker eyebrows set a youthful vibe into your look. Think Jennifer Connely or the most-talked about model at the moment, Cara Delevingne. Plucking leads to the inevitable damage of your hair follicles so it’s best if you use a shave while grooming your brows.
• Try teeth whitening.  Over time, teeth may yellow from coffee, tea or red wine stains. You can whiten teeth quickly with over-the-counter products such as the Colgate Optic White Toothpaste. Or your best bet can be blue-based red lipstick! The blue tint lessens the appearance of the yellow color on your teeth.
• Poise is everything! The ideal woman stands tall and confidently. You’ll look and feel lighter and younger in seconds!
• Give time for your much-needed beauty sleep or sleep earlier than usual. Your puffy eyes, sallow and dull skin will surely be evident in the morning.
