With baby-boomer business execs entering their 60s, ageism has become a hot topic in the corporate world. “The biggest threat to longevity in business today is looking old,” says Alan Middleton, a marketing prof at York University’s Schulich School of Business. “Like it or not, business associates and peers think your ideas are old if you look old today.”
A man’s skin becomes weaker and less dense over time, according to Lucien Aubert, director of the Biotherm Research Laboratory in Monaco. He says your skin becomes more easily weakened by external aggression such as shaving and UV rays. The key is to protect your skin from further sun damage, while encouraging collagen production. Give the following anti-aging products a full eight weeks to see results.
