Carry your age gracefully

Categorised under: Grooming, lifestyle, Personal growth 14 comments

It is a strange quirk of human nature that we always try to look younger than our actual ages. At 25 we do our best to look 18. At 35 we are pleased if someone tells us we do not look a day over 25. In our mid-40's, we are thrilled when someone expresses surprise on learning that we have college-going children. Ironically, it is only in our teens that we try to act and dress older than we actually are!

Why is it that an average person, especially a woman, tries to look younger? Why cannot we come to terms with this simple fact of life, that we have to and are going older with every passing day, minute and second. No matter what! Every living thing on this earth has to grow old and die.

Is it because growing old brings us nearer to death that we want to prolong our youth or because age signs like wrinkles are unattractive, that we want to continue to be young? I do not think that anybody really consciously thinks deeply about why she wants to look young even when she is constantly doing her best to fight the signs of nearing old age.

Are you dealing with zits even though your cheerleading days are well behind you? You need one of these acne products that readers say work like magic -- just make sure to skip the duds

This is a TotalBeauty.com acne article

So much for saying "so long" to acne: Yes, even adults are plagued by this teenage woe. But as we age, the spot treatments of our high school years stop being so effective. If you're in your 30s, 40s, or 50s, you have to use a product that'll address your skin's needs. Don't know where to start? Check out our reader faves (and flops) here.
