Anti-Aging Tips: Staying Young While Also Broke

Want to look 20 when you’re 40 and spend like you’re a broke college student while doing so? Then look no further!

If you were one of the millions of people watching the most recent 2020 Super Bowl, you probably saw the halftime show. Between commercials for chips, cars, and that weird one about a peanut’s funeral, you probably also saw the halftime show with Shakira and J.Lo too. And, if you’re anything like us, you probably cried into your chicken wings, lamenting on the fact that these women still look INCREDIBLE at their age, while you can barely keep it together.

Luckily for all of us, looking like these two amazing women doesn’t require having a gazillion dollars. And while we may not be able to help you get their abs (I mean, honestly WHO LOOKS LIKE THAT), we can definitively help you show off that gorgeous face of yours, and keep it lookin’ young for years to come! Below, you’ll find some of our fave products that not only make you look younger, but won’t break the bank while you’re using them!

   Okay, honestly you can get any Drunk Elephant product and be all set. There’s a reason why the brand is a best seller at pretty much any store that provides makeup! And While this serum maybe a little on the pricier range, we can tell you from experience that it really does last a while. It’s super lightweight, and full of stuff your skin will find really yummy, like antioxidants, nutrients, and fruit enzymes. Because of that, it’s really great for all skin types – normal, dry, oily, or a combination of all three. It’ll help get rid of the dead skin cells on your face, get rid of age lines, and add brightness. Plus, Drunk Elephant is crazy well known for their use of ingredients that are known for directly helping your skin’s health. What’s not to love!?

   Let’s talk about our eyes! This part of our face is often the first to show age. The happier you are, the more likely you are to get lines at the corners of your eyes. Plus, we all know if we don’t get enough sleep, we get those lovely black bags! Enter this cream to save the day – or actually days! In fact, this cream offers a 26-hour boost to skin, by providing moisture, elasticity, and increasing resilience. What’s even more amazing is this can be used as a great foundation for you to put your makeup on. By slapping this on before putting your makeup on, your fine lines and wrinkles will disappear!

3. Youth To The People Kale + Green Tea Superfood Face Cleanser

   Youth To The People Kale and Green Tea Facial Cleanser - Gentle Vegan Daily Face... @ Amazon

   
   This cleanser – which you use twice a day (at morning and at night) – is literally a juice cleanse for your face! And it even has some of the same ingredients. Kale, which has rich vitamins like C, E, and K which leave your skin glowing; spinach, which can soothe your skin and condition it; and green tea, which acts as an anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory. Not only does it remove makeup, but it also helps to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, as well as uneven texture and pores. These ingredients combine to create a strong, but still gentle face wash that you can use every day. And for you vegan’s out there, it’s completely plant-based and 100% vegan!

   Our favorite night cream can be put on right before bedtime, and absorbs into your skin really quickly, so it won’t make your pillow messy!

Once you put it on, you literally don’t have to do anything – just catch some z’s, and wake up the next morning, with a fresh, bright, and beautiful face!

5. Fresh Rose Deep Hydration Moisturizer

   Sale Fresh Fresh rose deep hydration face cream - normal to dry skin types, clear ,... @ Amazon

   
   This is a super lightweight cream that smells AMAZING, and we can’t get enough of. And, even better, it’s 24-hours! This means that you won’t have to reapply throughout the day for your skin to feel refreshed, hydrated, and bright. Because of this, it’s really great for skin that needs a little pick-me-up in terms of dryness, especially during the winter. Using this moisturizer (which, we’ll say again, smells AMAZING) will leave your skin petal soft (get it!? Since it’s rose!?), and is proven by users to keep skin supple and smooth.

While these anti-aging won’t set your skin back 30 years, we’ve definitely noticed a difference in our skin since using these products. Treating your skin with anti-aging products before it even begins to show wrinkles is also one of the best ways to keep them from appearing too. Also make sure you use sun screen whenever you can. The sun can be rough on our skin, and is proven to lead to more wrinkles, as well as burns and even skin cancer. Treat your skin right, and it will last you a lifetime.

So, whether you’re 22 or 82, these awesome products will help you feel and look your best without breaking your bank. It may not turn you into Shakira, but it’ll definitely help you with keeping your skin looking almost as youthful! We only wish that there was similar stuff to make our bodies look the same!
