How to make your face to look younger


ጤጢ
Your face is often one of the first things people notice about you and is a focal point whenever you interact with others. But as we age, our skin changes and we may not feel as confident with our faces. Having a young(er) looking face and glowing skin can also be signs of health and vitality and influences how others react to us.[1] By practicing good skincare, modifying your lifestyle, and considering medical treatments, you can make your face look younger and have glowing, youthful, skin.

    Wash your face regularly—and gently.Excess dirt or even acne can make your skin appear less youthful, especially as you get older. Keeping your skin clean can keep dirt or acne from settling in wrinkles or fine lines and prevent breakouts.[2]
    • Use a mild cleanser with a neutral pH.[3] Your skin naturally has a pH of about 5 and you want to find cleanser that helps maintain this balance. Read product labels, which may list a specific pH or say “pH balanced” or “pH neutral.”[4]
    • Try an oil-free cleanser if your skin is very oily. Glycerine or cream-based cleansers are a good idea for dry skin.[5]
    • Rub the cleanser into your skin with gentle pressure. Being rough with your skin can irritate it and may make it look older.
    • Rinse with lukewarm water. Water that is too hot can strip your skin of needed oils or cause irritation, which can you’re your skin look older.[6]

    Avoid over-cleansing. It’s important to wash your face regularly, but you don’t want to overdo it. Soaps and prolonged exposure to water can strip your skin of oils. It may also irritate your skin, causing it to look less glowing and youthful.[7]
    • Wash your face no more than twice a day, unless you are especially active.[8] If you are very active or exercise, use a gentle cleanser to wash your face if you are very sweaty or dirty, or if you shower.

    Put on moisturizer every day. Apply a moisturizer that boosts collagen and elastin production daily. Keeping your skin properly hydrated can help firm your skin, prevent wrinkles, and make you appear younger.[9]
    • Use a moisturizer even if your skin is oily. Try an oil-free product.
    • Try products that not only boost collagen and elastin, but also make your face more youthful looking by plumping it up with products such as silicone and hyaluronic acid. You can find out if products have these ingredients by reading the labels. However, be aware that many companies over-promise results. Consider consulting online forums such as Paula’s Choice, which includes product reviews from medical professionals and individuals who have tried the product.
    • Apply a moisturizer with a sunscreen may help prevent wrinkles.
    • Consider running a humidifier in your room at night to boost moisturize on your skin.[10]

    Exfoliate your skin. Dead skin and debris can settle into pores, fine lines, and wrinkles and make your skin look less youthful. Use a gentle exfoliator to clear away debris and help prevent breakouts.
    • Be aware that exfoliators only scrub away surface skin and cannot remove wrinkles or fine lines.
    • Choose an exfoliator with either synthetic or natural beads to minimize irritation.
    • Use a soft washcloth to gently exfoliate your skin.
