How To Stay Young Looking

Our skin's natural renewal process slows down as we get older, especially once we pass the age of 30. Accelerate the process (and bring fresh, plump skin cells to the surface) with the help of products containing Alpha Hydroxy Acids - gentle exfoliants which leave the skin looking younger. Try Perricone MD AHA Face Firming Activator.

If your hair's thinning, ask your stylist to add texture with the help of 'chip cutting' and 'razor cutting' and use a product like Nanogen Thickening Shampoo to add volume.

Nothing ages you like the appearance ear hair and nose hair so keep it in check on a weekly basis with a WAHL Wet N Dry Trimmer.

Products containing light-reflecting technology are great for knocking off a few years. They work by reflecting light off the skin, giving it a smoother, even and more youthful appearance, and by diminishing shadows and fine lines. Try Anthony Logistics Continuous Moisture Eye Cream which has special optical light diffusers as part of its formula.

Teeth have always been strong indicator of health and youth and having healthy white ones can have an instant anti-ageing effect. Keep yours sparkling with the help of iWhite Instant Professional Teeth Whitening Kit. Since teeth also act as scaffolding for your face it's worth holding on to them for as long as possible. As soon as they start to fall out you begin to lose jawbone too and when the bones of your face start to shrink you face starts to sag.

With 80% of the lines and wrinkles caused by UV rays adequate sun protection is essential if you want to avoid looking like something that's been dug up from a peat bog. And it's not just sunbathing that's to blame - everyday low-level exposure takes its toll too, so use a daily moisturiser with a built in sunscreen like Anthony Facial Moisturiser SPF 30.

No, not with a Stanley knife and a bottle of brandy for anaesthetic - try an anti-ageing product like Peter Thomas Roth Mega Rich Intensive Anti-Aging Cellular Creme instead which will help lift, tone and firm the skin, making it look more youthful.

According to some research the optimum time for the body to repair itself is between the hours of 11pm and 3am and that goes for skin too. So before you go to bed/pass out at night think about applying an anti-ageing night cream like Ole Henriksen Invigorating Night Creme and grab some real beauty sleep.
