How To Embrace Aging


Less oil.
The oil-producing glands beneath the surface of skin become less active as you age. In women, this typically happens after menopause. This is especially good news for those who struggle with oily skin. But keep in mind that dry skin demands special attention. Keep skin moist all day long with AHAVA Mineral Body Lotion, which boasts a blend of aloe vera and 21 vital minerals to hydrate and heal the skin.

Less acne.
Another reason to embrace aging skin? After the age of 30, you’re less likely to deal with acne, which is most common in adolescents and young adults. However, occasional blemishes are still common. And, fortunately, there are plenty of products that are specially formulated to treat adult acne. MD Formulations Adult Anti-Blemish Kit is a comprehensive, clinically proven acne-fighting system that meets the needs of mature skin.

Less sweat.
 As you age, sweat glands become less active which translates into fewer problems with odor and wetness. While this is a welcome change for most, keep in mind that less active sweat glands might make it harder to keep cool. Drink plenty of water when working out or spending extended periods of time exposed to the heat.

Even though you might sweat less, you’ll probably still need to use an antiperspirant from time to time. Philosophy Pure Grace Perfumed Antiperspirant / Deodorant eliminates wetness with a clean, soapy scent. Infused with vitamin E, this silky deodorant is great for all skin types.

Less body hair.
As you age, you can expect to see an overall reduction in body and facial hair. However, you may notice that the hairs you do have become slightly coarser. Those strays are easily targeted with Tweezerman Brow Duo Kit.

Increased satisfaction.
Whether you’re worried that your reflection is getting older — both physically and mentally — or that your special trip to the spa might get stale, Science News Daily reports some encouraging research that links age with satisfaction. A study done at the University of South Wales reveals that if a young person and an old person have the same experience, the older adult is likely to find it more uplifting. Typically, older adults more easily appreciate the good things in life and are less upset when things go wrong.
