Looking younger as you get older takes one thing - being healthy. The body will always look younger if it's healthy. Take a 40 year old woman who exercises regularly, eats a healthy diet, avoids 'toxic' foods and drinks, and she will look far better than a 40 year old woman who barely exercises and eats garbage. Why? because the body is receiving the nutrients it needs to stay healthy. The skin is the last organ to receive nutrients from the food and drink you consume. So if your diet is poor, by the time the nutrients reaches the skin, there's hardly anything left. Also, being unhealthy, there's a dam good chance you'll be overweight, which makes the skin look worse - looking older than it is.
Being fit, exercising regularly, going to the gym, all help to 'tighten' the body, just like all of those expensive creams and lotions that claim to tighten the skin on your face, only at a fraction of the price. You can use whatever creams and lotions that you wish, but unless you fight aging from the inside as well, you're never going to get the results that you want.
I remember how Charlie Sheen looked in his last season of Two and a Half Men. He looked dreadful to put it politely. That came from years of drinking, smoking, drugs, eating garbage and living a very unhealthy lifestyle. I then saw he went on a fitness rampage, got in very good shape, changed his diet, his lifestyle, and he looked far better! even though he was another couple of years older. That's what living a healthy lifestyle can do - 'can take years off you' as many of the skin creams claim.
So if you want to look younger, or prevent aging for as long as possible, then start living a healthier lifestyle. Aging is part of life, everyone ages, it's just a matter of when. The healthier you are, the better you will look throughout your whole life.
