How to Look Years Younger

There are many beauty products advertised today that claim to help you look much younger. These item range from dollars to hundreds of dollars, and can fit any budget. Here are some steps and products that will leave your face looking younger.

How to Look Younger #1: Whiten Your Teeth

Subconsciously you may realize that the condition of a person's smile tells their age. After time wine, coffee, soda and many other foods and drinks stain teeth. It is unusual to see a young person with a yellow smile. But there are ways to remedy this. Bleaching can be done at your dentist's office for around $500 - $1000. Whitening trays can be used at home and sell for anywhere from $20 to $1000. The most cost efficient way to brighten your smile is to use white strips that stick right to your teeth. You won't have to worry about that messy mouth tray. These sell for under $30 in drugstores. Crest White strips are my best friend.

How to Look Younger #2: Reduce Puffy-Looking Eyes

This is where you may have heard about the benefits of hemorrhoid cream. Many people swear by it, claiming it reduces the swelling. Placing something cool under your eyes for fifteen minutes will restrict blood vessels around the eye. Cucumbers will do the trick. The caffeine in (wet) tea bags will decrease puffiness, as well. These are products that many already have in their homes. Eye creams that target puffiness are big sellers. Cliniques's "All About Eyes" ($28-$43) is a lightweight gel that has worked for me.

How to Look Younger #3: Rid Yourself of Dark Under-Eye Circles

Easier said than done, right? Skin-lightening ingredients like vitamin K, vitamin C, and licorice root may diminish the darkness of the skin. These can be found in most eye cream serums on the market today. You can also use a concealer that brightens up the eye area. Be sure to use a lighter shade than your foundation. A great product to try is Cover Girl Smoothers Concealer for only $4.75.
