The back of your hands have very gentle skin, so it’s important to show them some TLC. The back of your hands will show signs of aging due to sun exposure and overall use!
Use hand cream regularly and exfoliate your hands with lemon and salt. And don’t forget to apply sunscreen when you go outdoors!
11. Load Up on Vitamin K & Lycopene
We can’t forget about nutrition! Vitamin K is found in kale and other green vegetables such as spinach, collards, Swiss chard, parsley, lettuce, and Brussels sprouts. Vitamin K helps your blood coagulate, reducing the impact of bruising and stretch marks while potentially creating younger looking skin.
Lycopene can be found in tomatoes and other red fruits and vegetables (but not cherries and strawberries, interestingly). It gives the skin powerful antioxidant protection against UV rays with some research showing that it can reduce the future impact of sun damage.
12. Eat Oily Fish
Wild Alaskan Salmon is a great example of an oily fish, which is rich in DMAE (dimethylaminoethanol), a compound that boosts muscle tone and is a common ingredient in expensive creams for mature skin. Eating oily fish twice a week offers the same benefits. Not to mention, oily fish is incredible for brain health!
13. Exercise 4+ Times a Week
You’ll fend off muscle loss and sleep better when you exercise at least four days a week. Combine cardiovascular exercise for heart and lungs, resistance exercise for muscles, stretching for flexibility, and balance exercise for coordination.
Weight training is an incredible option for bone health and will fight against osteoporosis, all while making you feel strong and confident as you increase muscle tone.
14. Play with Makeup
Makeup will allow you to highlight your best feature-your eyes! You’ll want to avoid glittery or shiny eyeshadows, which can accentuate the fine lines around your beautiful eyes. Opt for creamy textures or go with matte altogether.
But your eyes aren’t the only place to show a little love. I have a whole collection of makeup videos for mature skin to help you choose the best foundation and create a glowy look.
