Ways of looking younger than you actually are !

"I want to looker younger than I am now !" There are ways which we can use to make us look younger, plastic surgery, applying lots of face creams will tell you that you can, but their wares can be expensive and invasive. Here are six moves that research proves can deliver.

1. Avoid the sunlight
Repeated sun exposure eventually leads to brown spots, fine wrinkles, deeper creases, and sagging skin. If you need proof, just look at the skin on the underside of your arm where the rays are less likely to reach.
 
2. Smooth Lines with Retinoids
Vitamin A can help soften the look of fine lines and brown spots by increasing collagen production and normalizing skin-cell activity.
 
3. Load Up on Antioxidants
Antioxidants act as scavengers that neutralize free radicals — the particles that, in skin, cause sun damage and wrinkles, and can lead to skin cancer. They can also help protect against damage from environmental assaults like pollution and smoking.

4. Exfoliate Gently and Often
At-home peels or even a simple face scrub can make your complexion look much more youthful and radiant and may also boost collagen production. Regular exfoliating is also therapeutic if you have acne-prone skin.

5. Sleep Well
Lack of sleep definitely saps your glow and furthermore fatigue causes cortisol, the stress hormone, to rise sharply.

6. Add Moisture
Effective hydrators include those, like glycerin and hyaluronic acid, that draw water into the skin, and others that prevent water from escaping, such as petrolatum and lanolin.

Start applying them and keep yourself looking younger !
