First of all, it is important to know that while getting older may seem like a nuisance, most importantly and above all else it’s a privilege. Some people never get to make it a day over 20, so making it to the age of 70 and beyond is quite the achievement.
With age comes experience and individuality. It’s an opportunity to embrace everything you’ve learned throughout your life and apply it. However, that doesn’t have to mean you can’t look great while doing it.
When you reach 70, you can still radiate vitality and elegance by following the right tips. Here are some ways to not only look but feel fabulous over the age of 70.
Nurture Your Skin
They say the eyes are the windows of the soul, yet, in reality it’s actually the skin. After all, your skin says so much about you. Your skin changes as you age, yes, which is inevitable, but it doesn’t have to do so at a rapid rate. If you can manage to carry out a thoughtful skin care routine, you can maintain a healthy glow even over 70.
You want to make sure that you use a rich moisturizer with plenty of yummy nutrients in it like hyaluronic acid and additional SPF. This is because regardless of how good the sun may be for our health, too much of it can be a bad thing. Even on cloudy days, you should always make sure that your skin is protected with a SPF of 30 or higher.
Embrace Style
When it comes to looking your best, you must embrace your style and find the look that gives you a signature fashion sense. It’s an opportunity to reflect your personality and uniqueness in bright colors. In other words, you can use your fashion to express who you are.
If you never really dared to stand out before, now is the opportunity to do so. Have fun with different looks, and find inspiration in places where you enjoy looking for clothes. Usually clothing brands have lookbooks and inspiration photos that can help you put together different looks.
Otherwise, you could even consult with a younger family member who may have great tips on new fashion styles to try out. The idea is to have fun and create a look that doesn’t just make you look younger but also feel younger.
Don’t Forget Hair
Much like skin, your hair is an important part of looking and feeling your best. Unlike clothing, your hair is something that you wear every day. So, you want to make sure that you put extra effort into it.
Find a hairdresser that understands your face shape and hair texture, and can help you be the best version of you. Invest in some good quality hair products, and try out different colors. Otherwise, don’t be afraid to embrace grey.
