- Beauty and health - what makes us attractive?
Attractiveness is always in the beholder's eye - and as we know, everything we look at with love is also beautiful. There are factors and characteristics that we automatically associate with the concept of attractiveness: smooth, flawless skin, a healthy appearance and full, shiny hair come to mind here. If you look back on history, you also notice the subjectivity of each time that is hidden behind these ideals of beauty. In different centuries, pale skin or a lush body were desirable.
These examples clearly show that these are status symbols of the time, which are based on social conditions, which define the beauty features of the time. Especially nowadays, beauty is given great importance. People forget that true beauty comes from within. Finding yourself attractive is also an important point that supports your self-confidence and your own perception. This also means that we take care of ourselves and not neglect ourselves. You notice that you are automatically perceived as attractive in the eyes of other people.
- How do I feel attractive and comfortable in my skin with simple measures?
I would now like to give you a few very simple tips to look attractive! A very important point, which is often underestimated in today's fast-paced times, is adequate sleep! Both the sleep rhythm and the need for sleep are considered being individually different, but listen to your body here! Unfortunately, most people cannot follow their natural rhythm. Many of us are actually part of the so-called "owls" (you feel you belong here if you are always fit and awake in the evening and never get out of bed in the morning), but have to get up early in the morning to get to work on time appear. Getting up early is not a problem for the “larks”, however, they start the day in a good mood and motivated, but are tired early in the evening.
One assumes a healthy sleep time of approx. 7 hours in order to give the body sufficient opportunity for regeneration. Our repair mechanisms run at full speed during this time, the immune system is strengthened, the skin recovers and our brain processes the experiences of the day. So keep that in mind if you'd rather watch the next episode of your favorite series on the sofa!
Fortunately, the path to greater attractiveness is no longer tied to looking as young as possible; style and a well-groomed appearance are much more decisive in how others perceive us. All of this also helps us to deal confidently with aging, and the advantage of the "best agers" is that they can find more time for themselves and develop a positive outlook on life. With everything, remember: What is good for the soul makes beautiful!
- How do we properly care for our facial skin from the age of 50?
Mature skin, in particular, has very different care needs than young skin: it becomes thinner, drier and less elastic. Now it is important to give your skin the right level of moisture and to strengthen the skin barrier.
From the age of 50 in particular, pay more attention to prevent dehydration, prevent skin damage and donate a lot of moisture. However, adapt your facial care not only to your age but also to the seasons. You should also pay special attention to your eye care, here the skin is thin and sensitive. Take care of them with a rich cream, which at the same time counteracts the small wrinkles.
Another point is a healthy drinking behavior . Drinking flushes toxins out of our body, ensures plump, firm skin, keeps the brain fit and helps us lose weight. And what amount are we talking about here? This depends on the individual living conditions, external influences such as heat but also age - depending on your personal parameters. Expect 2–4 liters per day, some of which are also consumed through food. Many of us just forget to drink, work or the children distract us too much ... Make it easier for yourself by putting a glass of water on the table with every meal, distributing the amount of liquid evenly over the day and switch between fresh drinks.
An alternative addition could be a coconut oil facial, which is reputed to be wonderfully smooth and moisturizing. To get a little of wellness in your bathroom, opt for a cream that contains essential oils. These donate not only a lot of moisture but also provide relaxation and sensual pleasure through their scent. A facial massage also tightens the contours, relieves tension and ensures well-being. So approach aging happily and calmly, as we have so many options today to perfectly care for our skin.
