How to look more attractive in 30 days.

Week 1: baseline and sleep

1. Scan your face (free in Hexum) and save the result.
2. Set a fixed wake time and aim for 7 to 9 hours. People look healthier and more attractive after good sleep (Axelsson et al., 2010).

Week 2: skin

1. Daily broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher. A randomized trial found daily users had about 24% less skin aging (Hughes et al., 2013).
2. Cleanse and moisturize morning and night.

Week 3: food and leanness

1. Fruit or vegetables at every meal. Higher intake shifted skin color toward a healthier look in a six-week study (Whitehead et al., 2012).
2. Protein at every meal, with a modest calorie deficit if you want a leaner face.

Week 4: facial work and review

1. 10 minutes a day of facial exercise (Alam et al., 2018).
2. Scan again in the same lighting as day 1 and compare your Overall Score.

Hexum automates this plan and adjusts it to your scan. Hexum users average a +35% improvement in Overall Score from first scan to week 6.^* Try it free.

* Average change in Hexum Overall Score, first scan to week 6. Based on Hexum’s own user data; not a published study.
