When it comes to looking and feeling youthful, getting a good night’s sleep can work wonders. Trust me, sleep is your best friend.

Getting your eight hours of sleep is excellent but the reality is, life happens and sometimes you just can’t fit the eight hours in. But even though it’s not always possible, whenever you can, make the most of it.  When you do get a chance to sleep in then grab it with both hands.

After a good night’s sleep, your entire body will feel energized, and the added bonus, is no brain fog and no dark circles.  This tip can really help to restore your beauty.

2. Personal Style

Your personal style speaks a thousand words so make it count.  Your hair should be well-groomed in a style that enhances your features.

As you get older gravity starts to take over so the right hairstyle or haircut can give you an instant facelift.

So, however you choose to wear your hair, long, short, layers, weave, cornrows – it does not matter. As long as it softens your facial features, that’s what you want.

It’s not necessary to be on trend but it’s essential that you choose clothes that compliment your body type.  

There’s this one little detail you don’t want to forget and that’s your nails.  Not everyone has the budget to get them done professionally and that’s perfectly fine.

Just make sure you keep them trimmed and groomed and you can have them painted if you so desire. There are so many options out there but a neutral color goes a long way.

3. Anti-Aging Makeup Techniques

Great skincare and good makeup walk hand in hand if you want your look to scream youthful, chic, and polished. Having great skin, is way better than a face full of makeup any day.

When you apply your makeup, it’s all about the technique, and for most of us ladies, less is really more.  

If you tend to have a heavy hand, that’s really not necessary. In fact, consider doing lighter applications, I can’t stress enough, that less is more.

It’s not necessarily the number or amount of products used but like I said earlier it’s all in the technique – the way you apply it.  Without question, light applications will give you a soft natural look.

Here’s the thing, bold colors even though they might be trending can age you. So the softer your makeup is the more youthful you’ll look.

4. Regular Exercise for Age-Defying Energy

Another great tip for looking younger is exercise. So you need to get off the couch! When you treat your body right inside and out it will give back to you and you will be astounded at the rewards it gives.  

It will give you back youthfulness and a feeling of vitality.  Whatever exercises you choose, a combination of cardio and weight training is a good way to go.

There’s really no need to be afraid of weight training. This is because as you get older you tend to lose muscle mass and so you need to do weight training to tone those muscles and maintain what you already have.

It’s crucial that you devote some time to doing your workouts. This will be one of your best investments.

Better yet, include a variety of exercises, mix it up so that it doesn’t get boring. Treat your body right, you’ll be glad you did.

5. The Power of a Healthy Diet

As the saying goes “the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”. One of the best ways to shave the years off is to ditch those extra pounds.  

Don’t beat yourself up if you are carrying excess weight.

If you are struggling in general to reach your weight loss goal, or you’ve simply reached a plateau and can’t seem to lose those last few pounds, then come up with a game plan.

Even if you have to make adjustments to your plan along the way so that it suits your transformation goal then, by all means, make your changes.

The important thing here is to stick with it. Be consistent and you will love the payback it gives.

Eating is the biggest part of the battle.  Tweak your diet and combine it with exercise and believe me, you will collect the rewards.

Significantly reduce your white flour, sugar, pasta and white bread intake.

Not only that, reduce your alcohol to a minimal amount or none at all. This will be a small step towards the big picture – helping to reduce your calorie intake.

Fruits, vegetables, lean protein, beans, nuts, avocados as well as foods that are low in sugar are good foods to incorporate in your diet.  

If you change the way you eat then stick to these changes. You will be pleasantly surprised at how much your body will change.
