Whether you’re a woman in your 20s, 30s, 40s, or 50s, it’s never too early or too late to start thinking about the future — namely, what you can do now to appear just as elegant and stunning as ever as you age. In the following post, we’ve provided a list of tips that will help any woman to not only age better and more gracefully but also put aging into perspective.

After all, getting older is never something to frown about. Aging is most definitely an honor and a privilege. And … frowning will give you wrinkles.

Let’s get started.

Top Tips For Aging Gracefully

1. Protect Your Skin With Sunscreen Every Day

Part of aging gracefully is avoiding as many lines and wrinkles as possible. This all starts with proper sun protection. The sun causes more wrinkles than basically anything else except smoking (P.S. Don’t smoke!), so it makes sense that you should be wearing SPF every day.

2. Eat A Well-Balanced Diet

Eating a well-balanced and nutritious diet will help you maintain a healthy weight and keep up your energy. Healthy foods with lots of nutrients and vitamins are also essential for beautiful hair, skin, and nails. Focus on a diet that’s rich in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats.

3. Exercise Regularly

Like a nutritious diet, exercising regularly is good for maintaining your weight and a slim and toned physique.

Even walking 15 minutes a day for at least five days a week can make a huge difference. If you’re up for a little more, try activities like bike riding, tennis, aerobics, or yoga. Sometimes exercising with others can help motivate you and keep you on a schedule.

Remember also that any type of regular exercise, but especially strength training, will support your bones and joints, helping to stave off chronic age-related conditions like arthritis. Daily physical activity can certainly benefit your appearance, but it will help you feel better on the inside too.

4. Manage Your General Health

Managing your general health means scheduling regular physical appointments with your doctor, as well as regular dental cleanings and eye appointments.

If you have a chronic condition such as heart disease or diabetes, you also must manage these symptoms. This often means obtaining and taking medications at regular times each day.

To help streamline this part of your wellness regimen, consider moving your traditional prescriptions to online prescriptions. Women who use an online prescription service are far more likely to remember to order their prescriptions and take them every day.

5. Find Older Women You Admire Who Can Be Role Models

Like it can be hard, after all, to know what we want to look like as older women because we may not feel very old in the first place. We can feel like we’re 25 when we’re actually 55.

To create a goal for how you would like to appear to the outside world as you age, pick two or three women whose appearance you admire. Then, go about dissecting their looks. Take tips from their ensembles, makeup, and hair, then see what could work for you as well. There’s nothing new under the sun, so don’t be afraid to “steal” their style tips. You may find that you like the look of something you thought you never would.

6. Strategize And Plan Like You’re Your Own Personal Stylist

Based on some of the tips you glean from your women role models, come up with some new beauty strategies for yourself. Be open-minded.

Aging gracefully is within your reach

The key here is to not be afraid to invest time, energy, and money in your appearance. Take care of yourself like you’re caring for a close friend or family member.

Finally, remember that every skincare product and a new top that you purchase may not be the best for you. Return what you don’t like when you can, or give those things away. Just don’t let it discourage you from continuing on this journey. You’re experimenting — trying new fashions and trends to see what you like and what others like too.

Lastly, don’t forget to embrace change. Nothing stays the same in life, and that goes for you as an individual person, just as it goes for everything around you.

If you are used to having your hair a certain way and wearing a special type of lipstick and a certain fit of jeans, that’s okay. But don’t be afraid to branch out.

As we age, our skin, hair, nails, body type, and basically everything else about us change. Simultaneously, what looks good on us changes. Find out what works best for you. By embracing these alterations, you’ll learn to go with the flow of life, and that ease of attitude and quiet confidence may end up being your most gorgeous attribute of all.
