11 Beauty Products That Are Secretly Aging You

While adding color to your hair can often make you appear younger, especially if you’re covering up grays, applying the wrong color or over-processing your hair can have the opposite effect. “Unless you are 20, ashy gray or white will add 10-20 years to your look,” warns Anna Guanche, MD, dermatologist, beauty expert and founder of the Bella Skin Institute. “And over-processing your hair or being too blonde can result in an aged look, because your hair is then frizzy and dry, reminiscent of grey hair texture.” Instead, she recommends adding highlights or toning it back to your original color to smooth the hair and add shine, which ultimately provides a more youthful look.
