Random Effective Tips for Men to Look Younger (27 items)

• 

  (#1) Stand Up Straight

  Watch your posture! It makes a difference. 
• 

  (#2) Change Your Diet

  You are what you eat. Fast food all the time? You're gonna look like a greasy cheeseburger. All those fats and grease are terrible for your skin. Plus, chances are, you won't feel great afterwards - lethargy isn't appealing. Whether it's proteins and supplements or some simple greens, a good change in diet and go a long way.
• 

  (#3) Stop Thinking That You're Old

  If you feel old, it will be evident in the way that you carry yourself, talk about yourself and how you act. Don't squirm away from learning new skills or technology because you think that you are too old. The minute you stop learning is the minute you really start aging. 
• 

  (#4) Eat Your Fruits And Veggies

  You can never eat enough. Carrots good for the eyes, blueberries are high in antioxidants, etc.
• 

  (#5) Get Plenty Of Sleep

  Want to look younger, happy and more attractive? Get more sleep. This one is a no-brainer, so there is no need to go into a lot of detail, but just know that when your co-workers tell you that you "look tired" that really means you look less than stellar.
• 

  (#6) Cut Your Sugar Intake

  Sodas, desserts, sugary snacks...we may think that we are addicted, but once you start to cut them out you may be surprised at how little you miss them.

  Not only do sweet treats add inches to your waistline, they also leave your skin looking wrinkly and dull. Sugar goes after your skin's collagen and elastin--both key proteins that make your skin look young. Watching your sugar intake can fight against premature aging, help prevent mid-day droops in energy and keep your pearly whites in good shape. 
• 

  (#7) Get Some Exercise

  Exercise increases endorphins, boosts mood/happiness/general outlook. Most men love the feeling of progress, especially in their own physique. Plus, it feels great to put on those pants that were a little too snug just last year. Consider getting in shape your next challenge and take it on!

  An added bonus: exercise increases your sex drive.

  And sweating is great for the skin as it gets rid of all those toxins. And don't forget the confidence boost - when you look good, you feel good, and that radiates.
• 

  (#8) Stop Smoking

  Are you still doing that? Quitting is tough, but comes with a host of benefits (beyond the obvious, life-extending ones) that you may want to consider. 

  Smoking makes your skin look sallow and it affects collagen, which provides your skin with youthful elasticity. Cigarette smoke is particularly harmful to the delicate skin underneath your eyes--leading to puffy, dark circles. Need more reasons? Smoking dampers your sexual prowess, messes up your teeth, may cause infertility, etc. etc.

  There is hope though. When you stop smoking, a lot of these unattractive side effects can be reversed, meaning that it is just a matter of time before your skin starts to improve and you start to look younger again. 
• 

  (#9) Whiten Your Teeth

  Most people won't even be able to pinpoint what is different about you, but you will look younger. Teeth whitening technology has become so accessible, that if you have ever thought about trying it, there really is no reason not to.

  Grab a box of strips, (Crest 3D White Professional Effects Teeth Whitening Strips are a popular choice) and whiten your teeth in the comfort of your own home. 
• 

  (#10) Embrace The Outdoors

  To truly look good, ya gotta feel good. Of course, the gym is awesome. But sometimes a guy needs to get out of the little boxes we live in every day (office, car, house...) and get in touch with his inner outdoorsman. This does wonders for the mind, body and spirit.

  Hiking, jogging, swimming, rock-climbing, even just a brisk walk - take in that fresh air, enjoy the scenery. This is your planet, they are just living in it.
• 

  (#11) Apply Facial Moisturizer Daily

  If you notice that your skin is looking dull or lackluster, moisturize! Even if you don't, still moisturize. Especially if you spend a lot of time outdoors, your skin needs help locking in moisture if you want it to remain supple. Just apply moisturizer in the morning after you wash your face and in the evening after you shower. Consult this list of the best moisturizer for men if you need some suggestions on great products. 
• 

  (#12) Lift Weights

  Beyond just getting cardio exercise, it is uber important to lift weights and develop muscle tone. Chuck Norris, for example is 73 years old. 73!
• 

  (#13) Improve The Way You Dress

  Dressing sharp and fashionably can take years off of your look. Don't try to dress like your teenage son. But do pay attention to the quality and fit of everything you put on.

  Some quick tips:

  1. Get a great pair of fashionable shoes. Go to Nordstrom. They will help you.
  2. Invest in a pair of well-designed, straight-leg jeans that fit. (No light denim or acid wash, please.) 
  3. In general, avoid printed shirts (Hawaiian and the like) or short-sleeved, button-up shirts
  4. Go to a tailor if you can afford it and get your suit, slacks, shirts, etc. fit to your body. 
  5. Pick up designer basics that are made of a good material and look nice on you. Rotate.  
  6. Wear dark socks, usually. And definitely if you are wearing dress shoes.
  7. For the most part, any type of jewelry can be cut out of the equation (with the exception of your wedding ring or your watch).

  (#14) Update Your Hairdo

  If you've sported the same hairdo for 20+ years, your look may be looking a little stale. Changing up your hairdo can give your look a much-needed revamp.

  If you think you can pull it off, flip through men's fashion magazines and ask for a trendy new cut. If you are balding and trying to hide it, resist the urge to grow your hair long and do the comb-over thing.. it rarely works. 

  Instead, try these alternatives:

  1. Embrace it and shave your head completely, a 'la Mr. Clean or Ben Kingsley
  2. Get a buzzcut (look no further than Jason Statham to see how this one works)
  3. Ask for a Caesar Cut (made famous by George Clooney, and..Julius Cesar, way before that): bangs are cut horizontally and styled forward
  4. Shaggy layers: If your hair is just starting to thin, you can hide it with a messy, tousled look

  (#15) Trim Your Eyebrow And Nose Hair

  Bushy eyebrows, hair poking out of nostrils and ears... no one finds these things attractive. Luckily, taming rogue, unwanted hair is pretty easy. Take a cue from the ladies and do a little hair maintenance once in a while. Just pick up a quality ear and nose hair trimmer and dig in.

  But do remember: ear and nose hairs serve a purpose, so you don't want to actually dig in and remove everything. Just trim back the truly unruly ones. 
• 

  (#16) Make Time To Play

  Remember as a kid all the group sports you played? Little league, the soccer team, football? Men are conditioned to focus on themselves, their family and their careers...what about that little kid who loved those team activities?

  Get your buddies together for a group sport - a pick-up game of flag football, kick the soccer ball around, toss the football around, heck even frisbee can be quite the fun workout. Whatever sounds good to your bro-posse, kick it in gear.

  If your bros are too busy with their significant others/kids, their loss. Go join a local league. Guaranteed, you won't be the only guy there who comes solo. Either way, you'll be reminded how much fun a group sport can be.
• 

  (#17) Exfoliate

  Exfoliate. Best stuff on the planet: Clinique Face Scrub for Men. After one use, you'll literally look years younger as this scrub will instantly remove a layer of old skin and reveal fresh, smooth, glowing skin - for real. It's also great to use before shaving and makes for a much cleaner/smooth shave. This product (and other ones like it) is available on Amazon, at major dept. stores like Bloomingdales and Nordstroms, Sephora and, of course, Clinique stores/counters.
• 

  (#18) Wear Sunglasses

  They'll add a little intrigue to your look and will prevent you from squinting at the bright sun all time. Which, again with the wrinkles. 
• 

  (#19) Load Up On SPF

  Sun is the enemy and is one of the biggest contributors of advanced aging. A daily SPF slows that aging process and will prevent wrinkles from cropping up in the future.  
   
  If you avoid sunscreen because you are concerned that it will ruin your tan, stop. Just choose a lower SPF (SPF 20 is a good choice) and make sure that you still apply it to block harmful rays. 
• 

  (#20) Take Your Vitamins

  Not just your run-of-the-mill daily Centrum, but really amp up on Vitamin E (for the skin), Vitamin C (immune system booster), any and all antioxidants. Get advice at local health store.
• 

  (#21) Keep Your Lips In Line

  Everyone loves luscious lips - even on guys. Best stuff ever? Aveda Lipsaver. It has SPF, too. Lip balm keeps the lips from getting dry and cracked - and not just in cold weather. You should use this stuff year-round.
• 

  (#22) Go Do That One Thing

  You know... that one thing. The thing you always thought you would have done or that place you always thought you would've gone by now. Go skydiving, learn to scuba dive, go to Europe by yourself. Pushing your own limits and stepping out of your comfort zone will always make you feel young. 
• 

  (#23) Wear The Proper Colors For Your Complexion

  Here is the quick and dirty on wearing the right color for you:

  - Try to wear colors that compliment your skin tone. (This guy knows what's up)
  - Wearing the right colors make you look young and healthy; wearing the wrong colors make you look tired and old. 
  - First, figure out what your skin tone is if you don't already know. Here is a quick quiz.  
  - If you have warm skin tones: yellow, orange and reds look best on you
  - If your skin tones are cool: stick with green, blue, purple and variants of.

  (#24) Start Using High Quality Shampoo

  Use a salon-quality shampoo for thinning hair if you are going bald (i.e. Nioxin) or any nice thickening shampoo. At the very least, it will make your hair smell and look nice. 
• 

  (#25) Cover Your Grays

  This one can be applied on a case-by-case basis, as a little salt and pepper can totally make men look more distinguished. But if you are self-conscious about your newly sprouting gray hairs or if you feel like you are too young to let them takeover just yet...you do have options. 

  You could opt to dye your hair yourself with shampoo-in color (Just for Men makes a great one) or next time you go the salon just ask your stylist to add low-lights to your hair. Low-lights are just like the highlights your girlfriend gets, but the opposite, meaning that it will add subtle streaks of your natural hair color or one-shade darker and will naturally cover your grays.

  (#26) Consider Contact Lenses

  If you wear glasses, try wearing contacts. They can instantly make you look 10 years younger.
• 

  (#27) Grow A Beard

  Sagging jowls? Slowly developing double-chin? Cover it with some facial hair.
