Secrets you can use to look 10 years younger!

Learn some of the top secrets for looking young and at your best byreading this informative article today!
Do you want to look younger? Who doesn't? The need to look younger is part of America's culture!
Most every man and woman has the desire to look and feel at least ten years younger than their biological age. Many people choose to use surgery to make the change. However, there are several secrets that you can use to enhance your looks, and shave off at least a decade of time.

Secret 1
You've heard about the importance of drinking water every day. Well, it's not only good for your health, but it's a beauty secret for men and women alike! Water helps to flush harmful toxins and wastes out of your body. It also moisturizes your skin and provides your body with the proper hydration it needs.
Drink six to eight glasses of water each and every day!

Secret 2
Sure, a tanned body looks young and healthy. But, a tanned body is also a sign that a person is a sun worshiper. Too much time in the sun not only darkens our skin, but it's harmful ultraviolet rays also dries it out. This causes premature wrinkling that will make you look even older!
If you're worried about your skin looking pale like Casper the Ghost, try using a store bought tanning accelerator. It allows you to get tanned with less time in the sun.

Secret 3
If you want to look at least ten tears younger, keep your teeth cleaned, in good shape, and whitened. Gray or yellow teeth age your face as much as wrinkles do.
Teeth that are only lightly discolored, can probably be whitened up several shades at home. Simply wet your toothbrush, then dip it in a mixture of table salt and baking soda. Then, brush your teeth as normal. The salt and baking soda will remove several shades of tobacco, coffee, and other food and drink stains. It will also freshen your breath and gums.
Teeth that are badly stained or need to be repaired to be restored to good shape need a dentist's professional services.

Secret 4
Drinking coffee and smoking usually go hand in hand. If you have one habit, then you might have the other as well. Tobacco and coffee not only stain your teeth, but they can also have adverse effects on your youthful appearance as well. Tobacco smoke, of course, is full of toxins that pollute your body.
Smoking creates wrinkles, especially around your mouth, and it also depletes your body of vitamins and minerals it needs to function properly. Coffee is said to also contribute to weight gain.
Stained teeth, wrinkles, a polluted body, and weight gain are all factors that can make you look older than you actually are! So, Secret 4 is to kick both habits! There are several ways to quit smoking, such as patches, hypnosis, therapy, cold turkey methods, et cetera. And, to quit the coffee habit, replace it with natural teas such as green, chamomile, peppermint, or pekoe teas. Green tea is especially healthful because it's an antioxidant. An antioxidant will help to rid your body of toxins.
Finally, you can look younger by dressing in the newest fashions. Keep your hair cut in a modern style, and keep abreast of the world around you. Looking younger is not only physical, but it's a mental process too!

Start massaging at the crown of your head.
  • There are two basic movements you do throughout; pushing and moving scalp while fingertips remain still, then very lightly rub with your fingertips to feel a slight tingling sensation. Carry these movements over from the front to the back of your head, behind your ears, down the nape of your neck. Do this for 15 minutes. Cover the scalp with a plastic bag to generate heat and aid in penetration. It is a good idea to have 2 or 3 smaIl napkins already warmed up over a closed boiling vessel. Use thee napkins over the plastic bag. The idea is to keep the scalp as warm as possible to enable the oil to sink in.
  • Half an hour later wash your head with shikakai. To prepare your own shikakai at home, take a cup of shikakai seeds and boil them in 6 cups of water, or till the seeds soften; allow cooling, and then rubbing the shikakai between your hands till it turns frothy.

This not only removes extra oil from the hair but proves very cooling to the head especially in the burning hot summer. It also prevents prickly heat and sun-stroke. Gram-flour too is a good grease remover and it is used in the same manner as multani mitti. Spices, fried and highly seasoned foods should be avoided as much as possible.

    DAMAGED AND SPLIT HAIR
  • Damaged and split hair is the result of excessive use of bleaching, dyeing, tinting, hair dryers and curlers. When the hair splits into 3 parts, it is known as split hair. Split ends should be trimmed from time to time to avoid further separation of hair layers.
  • To treat split hair, massage in egg shampoo. To prepare this shampoo place an egg, 3 tablespoons of lime juice or apple cider vinegar and a pinch of salt in the blender.
  • Pour in 1/2 cup of olive oil. Cover the blender container and run at fast speed till thick and nicely mixed. Remove the centre cap of the lid and slowly pour in a thin stream of 1/2 cup of more oil while the blender is still running. Massage generous quantity of this mixture on to your scalp and let it remain for half an hour. Give your hair this treatment every week to give suppleness and shine.
  • For badly damaged and split hair, take 1 cup honey and mix with 1/2 cup olive oil and 2 tablespoons lime juice. Set in a Jar for 2 to 3 days. Rub onto the scalp and roots of the hair. Now Comb from the scalp to the ends of the hair with a wide-toothed Comb.

After half an hour either covers wash with shikakai or shikakai soap. Use an apple cider of lime. Do these once a week till you find improvement in your condition? To increase the rate of hair growth, take a diet containing all the essentials of good hair health.
  • An important hair care tip to follow is to take plenty of proteins. Besides, take Vitamin B and Vitamin A, C & E. Sometimes, hair starts falling due to tension. Tension creates muscular contraction which in turn constricts the blood vessels carrying nutrition to the hair shaft. If nervous tension continues for a long time, noticeable hair loss can result from this scalp starvation.
  • Calcium is a calming agent for shattered nerves. Take a few calcium tablets with a cup of warm milk and honey in the night and sleep a sound sleep. Lack of sufficient calcium in the body creates unrest and tension in the body.
  • Another effective hair care tip for losing hair is cut a medium-sized onion and put in a cup of rum. Set aside for whole day. Remove the onion and bottle the alcohol. Massage this into the scalp every night till the condition improves and then do this once a week.
  • Massage once again. Cover the head with a plastic bag and tuck in the ends to help generate scalp heat place 2 to 3 already warmed napkins over the bag. After half an hour either wash with shikakai seeds or shikakai soap. This not only great but improves the health of damaged hair but also gives it glim and vitality.
