Worried About Aging? Here's What You Need To Do

As women, I think we can all agree getting older is our biggest fear. Okay, it’s not so much getting older as looker older, and one does not have to result in the other. I’ll get to that in a moment, but it’s important to realise men do not have this fear. Or at the very least, it’s not as prominent in their minds as it is for women. If you want the proof of this, take a look at Hollywood. Men like Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law age gracefully while the women do everything they can to look younger. Without pointing fingers to some of hollywoods sex symbols and leading female stars, it’s no secret that staying young is a priority. That leads me to question, do we need to go down the route of unnatural treatments like plastic surgery to look younger? After reading this post, I think you will agree the answer is, no.

Home Beauty Treatments
Well, if you want to look younger I think the place to start is by looking after your body, yourself. You can do this with some home beauty techniques that have a big impact on the way you appear. For instance, you can start with whitening your teeth. The image of a beautiful white smile is linked with the perception of youth and it’s easy to achieve. Either you can shell out some cash on a whitening treatment, or you can do it yourself quite simply. All you need to do is mix baking soda and lemon juice to make a paste. After you have done this, spread the paste over your teeth. Leave it on for one minute and then quickly remove it. If you do this for a number of weeks, your teeth will be whiter than ever, and you will have a gorgeous, youthful smile again.

Of course, a big reason people get plastic surgery and botox is to get rid of the wrinkles and blemishes on their face. These are the tell tales signs of aging, so we want to make sure they are gone for good. If you use a face mask regularly, you will find you have less and fewer wrinkles on your face. As well as this you can try the simple yet effective technique of using cucumber pieces to get rid of the bags around your eyes. As everyone knows, the most common features that give away age are the eyes, neck and hands. Finally, you can try a steam treatment in your home. Simply fill a bowl with boiling water and put your head over it, allowing the steam to cleanse and clear your skin.

Getting Rid Of Stress
You may or may not know that the biggest cause of aging is stress. Stress can affect everything from how thick your hair is to how clear your skin looks. Also, if you think you look old, stress will only add to aging creating an obvious appearance.  It is a psychological effect, and you need to deal with it if you want to feel youthful and happy. The first step you should try is getting to sleep at the right time. As we grow older, a good sleeping pattern becomes more important because our skin and body cannot rejuvenate as quickly as it used to. Once you get in bed at night make sure you go straight to sleep and if possible, try not to sleep with your face on the pillow. This will take its toll on the skin. 

To reduce stress daily try some meditation or exercise. Both of these activities will decrease how stressed you feel. If you like, you can hit two birds with one stone by taking up yoga. Yoga has the calm serenity of meditation while working out your body at the same time. If you do this, you will be amazed by how much younger you look after just a couple of months. 

Remember, growing older is a fact of life. You can age gracefully and provided here is some advice on how to do it. Still, most of it comes from within, do feel youthful, but also embrace your years, your experience and knowledge, and live the life you imagine.
