Ageless skin. Turning back time. What do you think or do when you hear those two phrases? Do you groan a little? I know I used to. I also know I’ve spent countless dollars and many hours reading article after article about how to to get the skin I want.

Tips to Ageless Skin

Now that I am so very wise and almost 40 (go ahead and laugh), I am realizing having great skin is a combination of factors. It’s what I put in my body, what I do with my body (and mind) and what I put on my body. When all those things are in alignment, my skin glows. It radiates. Not to mention the number of other benefits my body receives.

Here are 5 tips I’ve learned along the way that lead to ageless skin. I’m still a work in progress and am constantly trying to add all of these tips into my life, so please don’t think I always have it all together. I’ve already admitted to you once I have an issue with exercising. But I’m getting better! One thing I am very faithful at is my skin care routine. So I can at least pat myself on the back for that one. 

1. Drink water

I know I preach this all the time, but it really has changed how I look and feel. I used to go all day with maybe a couple of sips of water and not only could I feel it, but I could see it all over my face. Now that I keep a water bottle at my desk and carry one in my car, I feel different. My skin looks and feels different. My digestion is better. I truly believe this is the easiest thing people can change when it comes to the road to feeling and looking better. It’s so simple. Try it for a week. Track how much your’re drinking and by the end of the week, see if you notice a difference.

2. Exercise your body

I’ve started with a goal of 10 minutes a day of exercise. Ten minutes you say?! Yes. A girl has to start somewhere. I don’t know why I wasn’t given the gene of a love for exercise, but it’s just not there. Or at least I’ve lost it somewhere. I did have it at one point. I used to do crossfit with my oldest son religiously. Although I couldn’t  look you in the eye and say I loved it. But I did feel amazing. I believe that even the slightest bit of exercise does something for our skin. It starts from the inside out. So I’ll take my ten minutes and at some point raise it. Next thing you’ll know I’ll be running a marathon. Whoa there Julie.

3. Exercise your mind

I think exercising your body and mind can go hand in hand. It does something for your state of mind and if you walk for your exercise, you can get a lot of thinking out of the way. Maybe even solve the world’s problems. Or possibly just yours. Either way a clear mind leads to relaxation. Relaxation leads to a relaxed face, which leads to less wrinkles. Do you see where I’m going with this? There are so many different ways to exercise your mind whether it’s while you exercise, read a book or solve a puzzle. 

4. Focus on one way to eat healthier

I was talking with a friend the other day about how I get really overwhelmed with all of the ways to eat healthier that are talked about. There’s eating clean, Paleo, low carbs, no carbs, low calorie, low fat, gluten-free….My head is spinning. Is yours? She said her family decided to focus on one thing for the month – getting their fruit and vegetable servings in for the day. That was their focus.

That’s when it hit me that I was over-complicating things for myself. If you’re wanting to eat healthier, but you feel overwhelmed and don’t know where to start, swap out one unhealthy snack that week for a healthy snack. Or do what she did and decide you’re going to focus on getting your fruit and vegetable servings in every day. Just do something to move yourself to healthier eating, which in turn leads to better health and better skin.

5. Put products on your face that work

I used to be the queen of cheap. There. I said it. Cheap skin care that made my skin issues worse. Cheap clothes that didn’t last. Cheap kitchenware that lasted a few months. You get the picture. I realized there are things in life that are worth spending good money on. One of those things for me personally, is good skin care.

  1. I love the idea of starting with one idea of eating healthier. It is so overwhelming!

  2. 4. Focus on one way to eat healthier appealed to me as I get overwhelmed by all of the information about eating healther.

  3. #4 is what I am focusing on now! We have a weight loss contest going on at work, and I am focused on smaller portions and increasing my vegetable/fruit intake. Just like you said, even swapping out a McDonald’s sundae for a homemade banana protein shake is a great way for me to up my protein and fruit servings for the day.
