hmmmm…how to look younger. What not to do if you are over the age of 40:

Ditch the bright and dark red lipstick. It looks terrible on anyone over the age of 20. I have proof in pictures of myself. Not pretty.

Try to wean yourself off of foundation. It seeps into crevices and accentuates wrinkles. I found this one out pretty quickly when my first wrinkles appeared. I stopped using it then and never looked back.

Don’t die your hair a dark color. It frames your face and it is a drastic contrast against your skin.

Don’t use bright eyeshadow. Neutral shadows if you must use any, will make you look at least 10 years younger.

And if your hair falls down your back, cut if for god’s sake!

I know it’s difficult to part with these things. We have all been addicted to them since our teenage years. If you’re having doubts about going au naturale, pull out some pics. I bet most of you will say, god, is that me?
