This document provides tips and tricks for looking younger through simple fashion and beauty hacks. Some key recommendations include adding colorful items to an otherwise black wardrobe to brighten the complexion, using a brow pencil in a shade lighter than your natural color, opting for a BB cream instead of face powder to avoid settling in fine lines, wearing clothes that properly fit your body, and updating eyewear with a flattering frame shape. The document also shares the results of reader polls on whether a woman is too old for certain styles like stilettos, crop tops, or bikinis.

ADD A TOUCH OF COLOR
TO YOUR WARDROBE
Basic black is wonderfully slimming, but it rarely does a woman’s
complexion any favors. To perk up your skin, include colorful options in
your wardrobe. Don’t want to give up black completely? Try mixing it with
bright hues. Or opt for a color-block dress—the black side panels make
you look more svelte, and the color (especially red) flatters your face.
EDITORS’ PICK Color-block dress, Bisou Bisou, $60, sizes 4–16; jcpenney.com.
USE A
BROW
PENCIL
Lush brows are
youthful, while
sparse ones age
you. Go a shade
lighter than your
natural color.
Apply using
feathery strokes.

In fact, consider
skipping it altogether
and using a BB cream

GIVE
EYES
A LIFT
To counteract any
sagging, draw eyeliner
so that it creates a
slight “wing” up and
out past the end of the
lid. Also, try stippling
the line rather than
drawing heavily; you’ll
achieve a subtler effect.
EDITORS’ PICK Rimmel
ScandalEyes Waterproof
gel eyeliner in Black, $6;
at mass retailers.
REACH FOR
A WRAP
When you want to
look great without
a lot of fuss, a wrap
dress is the answer.
It’s one of those
throw-on pieces
that always looks
right and can be
dressed up or down
depending on the
occasion.
EDITORS’ PICK
Matte jersey solid
wrap dress, Calvin Klein,
$65, sizes 4–12; 6pm.com.
THROW ON
A PRINTED
SCARF
Lend an easy,
inexpensive dash to any
outfit—and help hide
neck or décolletage
issues. To give a cotton
blouse a bohemian vibe,
circle a long cotton scarf
around your neck once
and tie loosely.
EDITORS’ PICK Wavy
stripe oblong scarf, Apt. 9,
$28; kohls.com.

ADD A
LITTLE
COLOR
TO YOUR

Instead of nude, try
something bright.
Creamy rose and
berry hues tend to be
universally flattering.

WEAR
CLOTHES
THAT FIT
It might sound
obvious, but the
truth is that many
women focus
on a particular
size rather
than on what
actually flatters
them. Whether
something is too
tight or too loose,
the result is the
same: You can look
larger than you
really are.
LEND LUSTER
TO YOUR LOCKS
Try rubbing a couple of drops of
argan oil between your palms,
then running hands through
wet or dry hair. You’ll get shine
without any weight or greasy
residue. Tip: Cut down on heat
styling to prevent dryness.

Pat on a creamy
concealer two shades

A yellow-based one
can help to diminish
hollows.

UPDATE YOUR EYEWEAR
One style to try is this two-tone updated classic. The shades make your eye
color pop, and a round frame flatters most face shapes.

TO CUT IN A FEW LONG,
SIDESWEPT BANGS
They help camouflage any forehead wrinkles
you have (who needs Retin-A?). Tousle them
for a wispy effect, which looks less severe than
straight-across Bettie Page bangs do.
