Many baby boomers are choosing to go under the knife in their quest to look younger and more attractive. While it is true that cosmetic surgery can do wonders for your looks, surgery is costly, painful, and does not come without risks. Fortunately there are a number of ways to naturally enhance and transform your appearance without cosmetic surgery, and without spending a fortune.
These natural anti-aging tricks will brighten your eyes, lift those sagging droopy eyelids, eliminate wrinkles, reduce stress, enhance your self-esteem, and have you looking younger, fresher, and feeling absolutely fabulous in no time.
Here are the Best Anti-aging Tricks that will improve your natural beauty, boost your self-confidence, and will make you feel and look younger:
1. Facial Exercise: The Natural Facelift
Facial exercise benefits the entire face, as well as the neck. It reduces fine lines and wrinkles, lifts sagging jowls, minimizes puffy eyes and dark circles, reduces a double chin, lifts droopy eyelids, eliminates crow`s feet, increases collagen and elastin production, stimulates blood circulation, oxygenates the skin cells, and hydrates the skin. With consistent practice you will see results in just 3-4 weeks.
There are several facial exercises which I recommend. I elaborated them in one of the articles here in this website.
2. Hydrotherapy: For Healthy, Youthful, Vibrant Eyes
Look in the mirror at your eyes. Are they bright and clear, or do they look old and tired? If you suffer from eye fatigue, tired eyes, or computer vision syndrome (CVS), hydrotherapy (or water therapy) is a natural and very soothing method of healing eye discomfort, while helping to restore eye health.
Hydrotherapy will rejuvenate and nourish your eyes, making the white`s whiter, and your eyes brighter, clearer and totally refreshed.
Hydrotherapy treatments are performed by holding hot and cold water compresses against the eyes for 30-60 seconds each, repeating 3-4 times. The hot application expands the blood vessels in the eyes, while the cold restricts the blood vessel. It is always good to start with the hot compress and end with the cold.
3. Scalp Massage: Relax and Stimulate
A good head and scalp massage not only feels really good but has any health and healing benefits for your entire body. When the scalp is massaged, the rest of the body relaxes, too. Massaging the scalp stimulates the nerves and blood vessels, sending tingling sensations from the scalp to the toes.
It relieves tension, provides deep relaxation, lubricates and conditions the scalp, strengthens and nourishes the hair root to stimulate hair growth, and helps prevent hair loss.
A soothing head and scalp massage provides instant relief from stress, depression, headaches, and pain and can work wonders for relaxing a tight scalp.
And, don’t think you have to to a salon or spa to get a scalp massage – you can perform one on yourself using warmed aromatherapy essential oil or carrier oils like peppermint, rosemary, lavender, or virgin coconut.
4. Skin Needling: Anti-Aging Skin Rejuvenation Treatment
Skin needling, also known as micro-needling, is the newest, easiest, and one of the most effective anti-aging skin care rejuvenation treatments available today!
Performed in clinics or as an at-home treatment, skin needling is a natural alternative to Botox treatments and other fillers and delivers equivalent results to laser resurfacing, chemical peels, and dermabrasion treatments, but at a fraction of the cost!
This non-invasive treatment is a form of Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), improving the skin`s health and beauty by stimulating and replenishing collagen production in record time and without damage to the skin.
Skin Needling can be performed on the face, neck, body and scalp and has been shown to:
(a) Reduce and smooth fine lines and wrinkles
(b) Repair sun damaged skin and skin discolorations
(c) Thicken and repair thin crepey skin
(d) Increase and effectiveness of skin care products
(e) Visibly reduce acne and surgical scarring
(f) Tighten and lift sagging skin
(g) Helps lift and elevate the eyebrows
(h) Reduce pore size
(I) Improve skin texture
(j) Improve the appearance of stretch marks
(k) Improve the appearance of Cellulite
(l) Reduce and restore hair loss and hair thinning.
5. Stop Thinning Hair and Hair Loss
Not all women have long, thick, beautiful hair. As we age, thinning hair and hair loss are a very common complaint among older women. If you`re shedding from 50 to 100 hairs a day, that is considered normal, but if you`re seeing thinning on top of your head, bald spots, or experiencing thinning in your part line, you are not alone.
It`s estimated that approximately 30 million women in America have thinning hair – that is roughly 1 in 4 women that suffer from female hair loss.
Common causes of these hair loss are due to menopause and hormonal imbalances and thyroid dysfunction or testosterone imbalances, which not only can lead to thinning hair and hair loss, but may also shrink hair follicles.
Finding treatments to thinning hair or hair loss can be beneficial. You have to avoid putting too much tension on the hair like using hair products that are damaging. Having a healthy hair diet is also essential. And of course scalp massage with aromatherapy essential oils is very effective for treating hair loss and thinning as it stimulates the scalp and hair follicles, while promoting hair growth and clean, healthy scalp.
Conclusion:
As we get older, we tend to lose our confidence because of the way we look, and thus we look really old. There are definitely ways that we can do to revive ourselves and rejuvenate our face, so we may feel and look young.
We do not need to spend so much money to make our face as vibrant and beautiful as before. There are definitely natural ways that we can achieve this.
But the most important thing, we should always love ourselves and be proud of what we had become. It is always good to remember that the real beauty always comes from within.

No woman should wait till they are in their 50’s to do some of these. I’ve actually noticed changes in my hair after Uni when i started working… I recently started using coconut oil treatments regularly on my hair, I’ve since noticed reduced hair loss and hairdressers noticed a healthier scalp. We don’t always need super complicated tricks, simple and clean is usually a good way to go.
You`re definitely right, we all should be doing this even at an earlier age. But since we had been busy with work and families before, there are lots of women who forgot to take care of themselves. This is the time to rejuvenate ourselves.. and really take good care of our body.
