Ageless Beauty – 4 Tips to the Fountain of Youth and Keep Them Guessing!

“How old are you? You look really young. You’re about 30? 35? I’ll wait until you get up from the table so I can see your body. That will tell me.” (Personal Correspondence)

The above is what was said to me a few days ago while out with a group of girl friends. Wow! First, I must say, thank you to my parents for the good genes! Second, I am so very glad that I work-out regularly as I know that being physically active and eating food that is good for my body and soul (chocolate!) is the fountain of youth. With that said, the second key to keeping a youthful appearance is a lifestyle of eating healthy, exercising and using great skin and sun-care.

Face and Body Sunscreen that has no less than an SPF of 30 – Clarins’ daily facial moisturizer is an SPF of 20 but, if you’re going to be spending a lot of time outdoors it is best to obtain the SPF 50 for face and body from your dermatologist.

Work Your Body Daily – Exercise is to shaving off years both internally and externally. Getting at least an hour workout in daily keeps your heart strong. And since it is your most important muscle be kind to it and pump it up!

Go to Bed – Getting at least 8 hours of sleep keeps your weight from fluctuating, keeps you mentally alert, and, allows your skin to repair itself.

Change to an Organic Eating Lifestyle – Ageless beauty doesn’t just come from keeping your outside package looking good; you must be mindful of what you put in your mouth. Because the truth is…you really are what you eat! So, make sure that your eating plan includes fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts and fish. These are not just tasty, they are good for you and, will help you sculpt the body you’re after.

*Bonus Tip for Ageless Beauty – Have more sex. Really, if you want to shave years off! You’ll sleep better, have more energy, and, talk about the glow to your skin! As well as having a spring in your step and your friends will wonder why you’re so happy all of the time. Trust me on this one.
