Besides age stress and poor life pattern both are the factors make one look and feel older. So, Real Facts will let you all to know and learn few tricks and , that will help you look younger than your real age without surgery.
Few Tricks how to look more younger.
Use sunscreen as a moisturizer
In the morning, slather sunscreen on your face just as you would a moisturizer, advises Prevention magazine. Use SPF 15. If you plan to be outside most of the day, use SPF 45.
Trim your eyebrows
Splurge and let a pro do it the first time or two until you learn the tricks. If your eyebrows are the wrong shape, they can actually make you look older and even sadder. But beware: Narvaez says you should never wax your brows since that pulls on the skin and will make you look older.
This will make you blush
Since older skin dries out faster, use a brush and loose powder for foundation. "Stay away from anything called matte," warns Narvaez. "A dry, flat finish will only emphasize wrinkles and cracks." And do use blush--a soft pink is best. Always avoid bronze.
The great wrinkle cover-up
Once you hit your 40s, call your dermatologist for a prescription-strength vitamin A derivative, such as Retin A, Renova, or Tazorac. These products will make your wrinkles less noticeable and will actually help fade age spots. Prevention magazine says they may even help prevent certain pre-cancerous changes in your skin. Narvaez says you can disguise fine lines around your lips by building up the cupid's bow with a neutral-covered lip liner. Want that dewy look? Try lip gloss.
Get an eyeful of this
Use a light-colored eye shadow to open up your eyes and make them look bigger--but avoid anything shiny because it's so artificial looking. Narvaez also recommends curling your eyelashes and using dark brown or black mascara. No other colors work for the over-40 crowd because they look so fake. Avoid waterproof mascara since you'll have to rub hard to get it off, which can stress your delicate (read: aging) skin.
Sleep seven hours every night
Sleep refreshes your body. If you regularly get only a few hours of sleep at night, it will hinder metabolism and hormone production in a way that is similar to the effects of aging, warns Dr. Joseph Mercola, author of "The No-Grain Diet." He says seven hours a night is the absolute minimum for all of us, and some folks benefit from more. His advice: Be in bed by 9 p.m. in the winter months and 10 p.m. the rest of the year.
High energy
You'll look and feel better if you eat the right kind of fat--specifically nuts. Peanuts, walnuts, and almonds are best. They slowly release their good fat, giving you more endurance for the day's demands.
Flaunt your figure
Once you hit 40, Houston-based image consultant Karen McCullough has some surprising advice for women: "Don't be too covered up. Show your clavicles or some cleavage, but make sure to wear a well-fitting bra for support." If you're letting a little show on top, wear a longer skirt of slacks. You don't want to look trashy. She also told the Plain Dealer this tip: Trousers that are slightly too big make you look much skinnier than trousers that are a bit too tight.
Get a good pair of sunglasses and wear them
Wear sunglasses so you don't squint in the bright light. If you don't squint as much, you'll help prevent crow's feet and forehead lines, notes Prevention magazine.

The 5 Micro-Countries Around the World
Today in Real Facts, we will be seeing some really crazy guys who claim some of the land or an old sea fort as their own countries.
Republic of Molossia
The Republic of Molossiais a micronation founded by Kevin Baugh and headquartered near Dayton, Nevada.
It consists of Baugh’s house (known as Government House), backyard and front garden, as well as two other properties in Southern California and Pennsylvania. According to author John Ryan, Molossia is “a hobby… that has been pushed… to the nth degree.”

Originally established as a childhood project in 1977, Molossia subsequently evolved into a territorial entity in the late 1990s.
The name Molossia is derived from the Spanish word morro which means “small rocky hill.” Baugh notes that the ancient Greek tribe of Molossians is unrelated
Molossia has a space program, and by that we mean they have a store-bought telescope and some toy rockets with a camera attached to them to get an aerial photograph of the property.
Sealand
This little country is located in an abandoned World War II sea fort, called Fort Roughs in the North Sea 10 km (six miles) off the coast of Suffolk, England.
Since 1967, the facility has been occupied by former radio broadcaster British Army Major Paddy Roy Bates; his associates and family claim that it is an independent sovereign state.
On 2 September 1967, the fort was occupied by Major Paddy Roy Bates, a British subject and pirate radio broadcaster, who ejected a competing group of pirate broadcasters.
Bates intended to broadcast his pirate radio station Radio Essex from the platform
In 1968, the Royal Navy entered what Bates claimed to be his territorial waters in order to service a navigational buoy near the platform. Michael Bates (son of Paddy Roy Bates) tried to scare the workmen off by firing warning shots from the former fort. As Bates was a British subject at the time, he was summoned to court in England following the incident
The court ruled that as the platform (which Bates was now calling “Sealand”) was outside British jurisdiction, being beyond the then three-mile limit of the country’s waters,the case could not proceed. In 1975, Bates introduced a constitution for Sealand, followed by a flag, a national anthem, a currency and passports
In 1978, while Bates was away, Alexander Achenbach, who describes himself as the Prime Minister of Sealand, and several German and Dutch citizens staged a forcible takeover of Roughs Tower,holding Bates’ son Michael captive, before releasing him several days later in the Netherlands. Bates thereupon enlisted armed assistance and, in a helicopter assault, retook the fort. He then held the invaders captive, claiming them as prisoners of war. Most participants in the invasion were repatriated at the cessation of the “war”, but Achenbach, a German lawyer who held a Sealand passport, was charged with treason against Sealand and was held unless he paid DM 75,000 (more than US$ 35,000. The governments of the Netherlands and Germany petitioned the British government for his release, but the United Kingdom disavowed all responsibility, citing the 1968 court decision. Germany then sent a diplomat from its London embassy to Roughs Tower to negotiate for Achenbach’s release. Roy Bates relented after several weeks of negotiations and subsequently claimed that the diplomat’s visit constituted de facto recognition of Sealand by Germany. Following his repatriation, Achenbach established a “government in exile” in Germany,in opposition to Roy Bates, assuming the name “Chairman of the Privy Council”. He handed the position to Johannes Seiger in 1989 because of illness. Seiger continues to claim—via his website—that he is Sealand’s legitimate ruling authority
Sark
Sark is a small island in the southwestern English Channel. It is one of the Channel Islands, is part of the Bailiwick of Guernsey, and as such is a British crown dependency. It has a population of about 600.
The whole island is extensively penetrated at sea level by natural cave formations, some of which are only safely accessible at low tide.
Sark also claims jurisdiction over the island of Brecqhou, only a few hundred feet west of Greater Sark. It is a private island that is not open to visitors. Since 1993 Brecqhou has been owned by David Barclay, one of the Barclay brothers, co-owners of The Daily Telegraph. They contest Sark’s control over the island.
The island is a car-free zone where the only vehicles allowed are horse-drawnvehicles, bicycles, tractors, and battery-powered buggies or motorised bicycles for elderly or disabled people.
There is no airport on Sark and overflight of Sark is prohibited by the Air Navigation (Restriction of Flying) (Guernsey) Regulations 1985 (Guernsey 1985/21). The closest airports are the Guernsey Airport and the Jersey Airport. Sark lies directly in line of approach to the runway of Guernsey airport, however, and low flying aircraft overfly it all the time.

In August 1990 an unemployed French nuclear physicist named André Gardes attempted a singlehanded invasion of Sark, armed with a semi-automatic weapon. The night Gardes arrived he put up signs declaring his intention to take over the island the following day at noon. He was arrested while sitting on a bench, changing the gun’s magazine and waiting for noon to arrive, by the island’s volunteer Constable.
Kingdom of Redonda
The “Kingdom of Redonda” is a name for the micronation aspect of the tiny uninhabited Caribbean island of Redonda.This islet is situated between the islands of Nevis and Montserrat, within the inner arc of the Leeward Islands chain, in the West Indies and is uninhabited, and indeed is more or less uninhabitable since there is no source of freshwater, and most of the island is extremely steep and rocky, with only a relatively small area of grassland at the top.
The history of the “Kingdom” of Redonda is shrouded in doubt and legend, and it is difficult to separate fact from fiction.
M. P. Shiel, an author of works of fantasy fiction, was the first person to ever mention the idea of the “Kingdom of Redonda” and that was in 1929, in a promotional pamphlet for a reissue of his books

According to one of several different versions of the story, his father, Matthew Dowdy Shiell, a banker from Montserrat, claimed the island when his first son, Matthew Phipps Shiell, was born. Supposedly the father felt he could legitimately do this, because it appeared to be the case that no country had officially claimed the islet as territory. Sheill senior is also said to have requested the title of King from Queen Victoria, and as legend has it, she granted it to him as long as there was no revolt against colonial power
The son (originally named Matthew Phipps Shiell but later known as M.P. Shiel) was supposedly crowned on Redonda at the age of 15 by a bishop from Antigua.
Christiania
The area of Christiania consists of the former military barracks of Bådsmandsstræde and parts of the city ramparts. The ramparts and the borough of Christianshavn (then a separate city) were established in 1617 by King Christian IV by reclaiming the low beaches and islets between Copenhagen and Amager. After the siege of Copenhagen during the harsh wars with Sweden, the ramparts were reinforced during 1682 to 1692 under Christian V to form a complete defence ring. The western ramparts of Copenhagen were demolished during the 19th century, but those of Christianshavn were allowed to remain. They are today considered among the finest surviving 17th century defence works in the world
After the military moved out, the area was only guarded by a few watchmen and there was sporadic trespassing of homeless people using the empty buildings. On 4 September, 1971, inhabitants of the surrounding neighbourhood broke down the fence to take over parts of the unused area as a playground for their children.
Although the takeover was not necessarily organised in the beginning, some claim this happened as a protest against the Danish government. At the time there was a lack of affordable housing in Copenhagen.
The primary export is drugs, making Christiania a fun-sized version of Colombia but without the perpetual state of civil war.
