One of the most effective DIY face mask recipes includes half a ripe avocado and a tablespoon of honey which you can mix together and apply evenly on your face for amazingly smooth and moisturized skin which will take years off your face.
3. Switch to silk pillow covers

If you are too lazy to do the exfoliation regularly, then you can reduce that to a comfortable frequency which complies with your energy levels. However, cleansing and moisturizing are amazing skin tips 101 and the most underrated secrets to younger looking skin. Get a milk-based cream which cleanses and moisturizes your face at the same time, saving you one application and removal process.

It is important that you have your wipes with you at all times, so that you can always keep your face moisturized and hydrated. A sunscreen containing SPF also works wonders when you are trying to get younger looking skin. However, if you are too damn lazy for all this, a tinted BB cream that has moisturizing properties is also a great hack that you can check out.
Getting younger looking skin isn’t really a big deal, so long as you take the basic steps necessary to keep your skin healthy and fresh at all times (which are super easy so you don’t have to panic).
