1. START TREATING YOUR HANDS LIKE YOUR FACE. Nobody thinks about their hands until the sunspots and crepey skin show up. Whatever you’re putting on your face, bring it down to your hands. And SPF. EVERY DAY. 2. STOP SLEEPING ON YOUR FACE. You spend a third of your life sleeping. Pressing your face into a pillow night after night can contribute to sleep creases. Try sleeping on your back if it’s comfortable and use a beauty pillow 3. BUILD YOUR BUTT BEFORE YOU LOSE IT. I’m serious. Start lifting weights NOW. Building muscle in your 20s and 30s gives you a head start on maintaining it as you age. Your 40 yr butt will thank you. 4. STOP WAITING UNTIL YOUR HAIR STARTS THINNING TO CARE ABOUT YOUR SCALP. Stop frying your hair and pulling it into tight hairstyles. And if you notice unusual shedding, get it checked before you’re spending a fortune trying to fix it. 5. WEAR SUNGLASSES EVEN WHEN YOU DON’T NEED THEM. Not just for the outfit. UV protection for your eyes AND less squinting. Consider this permission to buy another pair of sunglasses.💁🏼‍♀️ 6. FLOSS YOUR DAMN TEETH. Gum recession isn’t something you can undo with an expensive toothpaste. Your smile is part of your anti-aging routine, whether you realize it or not. 7. STOP BUYING CLOTHES JUST BECAUSE THEY’RE ON SALE. A $40 sweater you never wear isn’t a bargain. If you can’t make three outfits with things you already own, you’re just collecting clothes and wondering why you have nothing to wear. 8. STOP BUYING AN ENTIRELY NEW OUTFIT EVERY TIME YOU HAVE SOMEWHERE TO GO You need a quality blazer, perfect fitting denim, an insane coat and shoes that make even your most basic outfit look expensive. Buy less, but buy better. And PLEASE stop picking apart your appearance. One day you’ll look back at those photos and wonder what the hell you were complaining about. *linked the things I would tell my younger self to start immediately  LTKOver40 LTKstorytime LTKBeauty
