No magic tricks here, just easy tactics that really work.

1. Act like a kid
"Getting back into an activity you loved as a child will give you that feeling of being a kid again," says Gabrielle Bernstein, author of Add More -Ing to Your Life: A Hip Guide to Happiness. "Even jumping on your bike for an afternoon ride with friends will make you feel more carefree."

2. Say 'C,' señorita
Vitamin C is essential for your body to make collagen, the protein that keeps skin firm and elastic. Dr. Lisa Zdinak, chief surgeon at Precision Aesthetics in New York City, recommends eating C-rich foods, such as strawberries, to promote collagen production, in addition to applying a C serum.

3. Out, darn spots
You can fade age spots (usually caused by sun damage) with topical lotions. Try one with hydroquinone, kojic acid, or alpha hydroxy acids. For a faster face-saver, splurge on laser treatments or the new eMatrix, which uses radio frequencies to accelerate the skin's own spot-fading, healing process.
