Reverse signs of
aging and get the younger looking 'You' without further ado by knowing
your skin and hair needs. How to go about it? There are 101 ways to
ensure you have healthy looking skin and hair. Follow a regime that
works wonders for you! Don't wait for wrinkles to show up, as in this
case, prevention is indeed better than cure, ladies. There are plenty of
ways, but which one is the right one for you?
Get your basics right!
If you are not doing it already, the primary rule is to follow the essential 3-step routine of cleansing, toning and moisturizing religiously and never take your good, youthful skin for granted. With age, the condition of your skin and hair changes and for some people this change may happen gradually while some others may notice a sudden change.
Facials
If you frequent a salon, get them to create a custom facial for you. They will create a formula that works exactly for your skin type and problems. Cleansing, toning, exfoliating, extracting and treatment masks to help tighten the skin and moisturize will be a part of this facial. Facials are important if you want to retain that youthful glow. Your neck and the chest will be a part of this procedure, as these areas need to be taken care of along with the skin on your face. They give away your age otherwise.
Stimulate skin cells
Massage your skin gently every night with a night cream after removing and cleansing your skin. Stimulating your skin cells keeps it soft and supple and helps prevent fine lines.
Protection from the sun
It's important for you to avoid the sun during the peak hours i.e. 10 am to 2 pm. Your skin when exposed to the harsh rays of the sun is more likely to fall prey to signs of aging. Spots and marks are common signs. Get yourself a good sunscreen and apply it generously before stepping out.
Go green!
The greener your diet is, the younger your skin will likely remain. Green leaves like spinach are rich in antioxidants which delay aging.
Apply honey
Honey keeps your skin soft and supple and fights aging by hydrating your dry skin. Not recommended for those who have an oily skin.
Antibacterial wipes
Keep antibacterial wipes inside your purse and carry them wherever you go. Breakouts and rashes are likely if you do not keep bacteria away.
Omega fatty acids
Cod liver oil or a diet which includes fish keeps your skin healthy too. Omega fatty acids help keep the glow intact and reverse sun damage.
Wear a sweatband
For those who like to go for a run or exercise in the gym to stay healthy, a sweatband is an essential item. Don't let product you might have applied on your hair to drip on your facial skin as it can lead to damage.
Sleeping
Not getting enough sleep and a bad routine can cause irreparable damage to your skin and fasten up the aging process.
Replenish your body
Drink enough fluids to keep your body hydrated. Water is the best drink for all and never drink aerated drinks or packaged juices, as they cause more harm than good. Natural coconut water keeps your skin and hair young and healthy.
Exercise
If your body does not get enough exercise, your skin is likely to sag and loosen up prematurely. A 30-minute workout daily is all it takes to stay young and healthy.
Smoking is bad
If you have this bad habit, quit before it's too late. There's no point in reading about anti-aging tips if you are subjecting your skin to the worst kind of damage.
The area around your eyes
This is a very sensitive part of your face and it demands extra attention and special care. Apply an under eye cream from any reputed brand. Also, keep puffiness at bay by relaxing your eyes with cool cucumber slices. It will also tone down dark circles.
Relax and rejuvenate

Don't let anything or anyone
stress you out. Me time is very important for women who have multiple
roles to play and juggle home and work. You must find ways to beat
stress and relax every day and not once in three months. Stress may lend
your skin a dull and lifeless look.
