Beauty may be skin deep or may even lie in the eyes of the beholder. But beauty definitely captures people's attention. This can be elaborated by the fact that standards of beauty have been imposed on women these days in several forms, and women are constantly found striving hard to achieve the perfect beauty, and maintain it. Aging is a woman' s worst enemy and she tries to use all the armament to overcome aging. Sadly, there is no philosopher's stone to prevent aging. But, there certainly are some effective tips that can be used to have younger looking skin. How to Get Younger Looking Skin Naturally You may not be aware, but, there are certain practical beauty tips for younger looking skin that neither include expensive cosmetics nor anti-aging creams. They include: Diet Women should accept the fact that diet plays an important role in having younger looking skin. Although you must have subscribed to a fad or weight loss diet which may be useful in having the perfect figure, most of the diets make the skin look dull and tired. Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables will help in making your skin look healthy. Adequate vitamin C is essential to make the skin look younger and shinier. Oranges, lemon, grapefruit, Goji berries, green tea are good sources of vitamin C. Similarly, foods like multi-grain bread, oats, muesli, mangoes, avocado; fish like mackerel, sardines, salmon, etc., help in keeping the skin supple. At the same time, dairy products, milk and cottage cheese are good anti-aging foods. Drinking 8 glasses of water every day also helps in keeping the skin hydrated. If you do not drink adequate amount of water, your skin can grow drier and tighter, which then gives rise to wrinkles. Do not replace water with fruit juices as plain water is more important than other fluids. Remember, well hydrated skin looks younger. Similarly, do not drink excess water at once, divide the amount and spread it throughout the day. Exercise Exercise is very helpful in blood circulation which makes the skin glow. Exercise also stimulates all parts of the body and helps rejuvenate the skin. You can consult your doctor or trainer to find out what is the best exercise for you. Daily 20 - 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercises is helpful for a healthy body and skin. You should also choose an exercise that you really like in order to make sure you stick to it. Skin Cleaning The simplest way to care for your skin is to keep it clean, toned, and moisturized. Cleansing is the simplest way of skin care. You should select a cleansing lotion depending on the type of your skin, whether it is oily or dry. You need to wash your face more than 2 - 3 times a day in case you have oily skin, whereas, dry skin needs to be washed only for 1 - 2 times daily. It is also recommended not to have a bath with very hot water as it leads to drying and wrinkling of the skin. On the other hand, do not use an ordinary bar of soap to wash your face for the same reason. Prevent Exposure to Sun The sun also plays a crucial role in aging. Although you may enjoy the occasional sun bath and getting the perfect tan, it is not good to have your skin exposed to the sun on a daily basis. Look for the best sunscreen in the market that is suitable to your skin (do not compromise on the cost). You should also remember not to rely on the sunscreen alone to protect against the sun. You should wear protective clothing, gloves, hats, sunglasses, and also avoid getting exposed to the sun in the peak hours from 11 am to 3 pm.
