The intestines should work like a clock. Constipation is a poisoning of the body, it is flabby dull skin. According to Eastern medicine, the small intestine is the roots of our body. If the roots of a tree are good and strong, then, accordingly, the tree prospers, it is beautiful. And with rotten roots, the tree withers and dries. The same is true for our intestines; if it is healthy and whole, then the body will prosper accordingly. And the person will live long. The health of our intestines, first of all, depends on food: fresh vegetables and fruits, clean water, less pastry, salads and cereals, as well as chamomile tea in the morning greatly contribute to the beauty of the skin.

By the way, about water: the condition of the skin, the slimness of the body and energy depend to a large extent on the quantity and quality of the water we drink. Don't believe me? This is easy to prove.

First, let's look at the structure of the skin. The epidermis contains protein fibers - collagens, which have a remarkable ability: when they enter water, they increase in volume. Swollen collagens from the inside increase pressure on the skin, which, thanks to this, is smoothed out, wrinkles disappear or are reduced.

The smoothness of the skin depends on this process. And the most affordable way to preserve her youth and solve a lot of health problems is drink 1.5-2 liters of unboiled natural water daily. Water that will fill your body with vital energy and oxygen. And soon you will see the results on your face (in the literal sense of the word): your skin will be smooth, radiant and velvety.

Second rule. Full sleep.

Lack of sleep is the worst enemy of beautiful skin and hair! Try to go to bed at a time that allows you to get a good night's sleep. I have one friend who values ​​her beauty so much that she goes to bed at 9 pm. But what does she look like at 36 years old! This is simply amazing!

Sleep is a wonderful gift to man from God. I used to think that sleep was a curse that took up so much valuable time. But only recently have I realized the benefits of sleep. Thanks to sleep, in addition to bodily relaxation, a person is cleansed morally - after sleep, emotions and unnecessary information are erased and only the fact remains in memory.

Third rule. Fresh air is beauty's friend!

If you sit in the office all day, walk home at least a few stops. Vents and windows should be constantly open, and in winter as often as possible. On weekends, take long walks outdoors. For a person to feel relatively normal, he needs about thirty cubic meters of fresh air per hour.

And another important secret to preserving beauty and youth is BATH! Our skin is a living organism and toxins (poisonous substances) accumulate in this body, from which we must constantly get rid of. It has been calculated with the accuracy of Archimedes' "Pi" that a person must excrete through the pores of his skin THREE AND A HALF TIMES MORE WASTE THAN THROUGH THE RECTUM AND KIDNEYS! This can only be achieved using a steam bath with a broom.

It’s especially good when everything in the bathhouse is made of wood. In addition, healers make a very salty solution in a basin in the evening, soak a shaggy towel with this solution and squeeze it out a little. When, after rubbing with a shaggy salty towel, your body turns red like a lobster, you can consider that your skin is a living organism. In this case, it is advised to use not soap, but corn flour, which is not harmful in a hot space.

Fourth rule. Vitamins!!!

It’s not for me to explain to you where the vitamins are! Even children know this nowadays. Of course, not in cigarettes, not in alcohol, and not in cakes! I'll just give you a hint about winter time. In winter, you will find the most vitamins not in greenhouse vegetables, but in dried fruits. So, lean on dried fruit compote, add dried apricots and raisins to oatmeal in the morning, and drink rosehip infusion regularly, it should taste sour, only then it contains enough vitamins.

“A few spoons of oatmeal, a tomato, an orange, a cup of tea and yogurt, a portion of all other products daily - and you can forget about old age and fatigue. Unless, of course, you forget about playing sports,” Pratt said. Among the “miracle foods,” the specialist identified: beans and blueberries, broccoli and oatmeal, oranges, yellow pumpkin, soy, salmon, spinach, black and green tea, tomatoes, turkey, nuts and yogurt. For the diet to bring results, all of the listed foods must be eaten at least 4 times a week.

Today they also add dietary supplements to the diet. It is not always possible to monitor your diet, especially if you do not have a personal nutritionist. Supplements will allow you to replace such a nutritionist

Fifth rule. Inner mood and state of mind!

The secret to staying young is to avoid ugly emotions. This is no less important than all of the above! If you have not forgotten how to joke and laugh, as in your youth, if you are friendly and do not envy anyone, if you have a favorite pastime, then in your old age you will have a beautiful young face, and you will not need plastic surgery!

And finally - the “elixir of youth.” It is believed that this composition really powerfully rejuvenates cells; it is recommended to drink it from the age of 30. Mix 200 grams of chamomile, 100 grams of immortelle, 100 grams of St. John's wort and 100 grams of birch buds. 1 tbsp. Infuse the mixture into 0.5 l hot water, (in a thermos), strain. Drink one glass of infusion with a spoon of honey in the evening before bed and in the morning half an hour before meals.
Drink for a month. Repeat course – after five years.

Sixth rule (small but important). A woman's age is revealed by her neck and arms.

We somehow often forget about our hands. We get used to their appearance and cannot always catch the moment when the wrinkles are too obvious and the bones on the hands protrude. And the skin on your hands suffers from temperature changes and insecurity much more than your cheeks covered with protective and foundation creams. With the same hands you have to do laundry, wash dishes, hide them in your pockets because of gloves forgotten at home.

It was not for nothing that our great-grandmothers wore thin gloves in spring and autumn - they protected the skin of their hands, prolonging its youth. Ideally, the glove season should open as soon as the outside temperature drops to +4 degrees. So buying thin, elegant spring gloves is not pampering, but a banal means of protection.

Many women await their fortieth birthday with tension and fear. It seems that youth is behind us: treacherous wrinkles, swollen eyelids, a swollen oval of the face... But in reality, everything is not so scary if you know how to maintain youth after 40 years. There are many ways to make time slow down. You will have to try, but the result is worth it: a woman after 40 years can still be beautiful, slim, and attractive.

The forty-year mark should be considered as another, very interesting and promising stage of life. A woman of this age has extensive life and feminine experience, knows a lot, knows the characteristics of her skin, appearance, health, and therefore can optimally choose a comfortable, effective, uncomplicated way to care for her facial skin and body. You can’t bring back youth, but you can and should fight for beauty.

Rules for a new life

The life of a forty-year-old woman must change. The new rules will help preserve not only the beauty of the face, but also youth, health of mind and body. These rules are quite simple, but very important:

• a full night's sleep;
• mandatory proper rest;
• physical activity;
• proper nutrition;
• regular facial skin care.

Try to follow these rules, and very soon the reflection in the mirror will seem attractive again.

Night Tale

Adequate sleep is the foundation. Gatherings until 12 at night should be a thing of the past, otherwise you can completely forget about your appearance: lack of sleep will have a catastrophic effect on your face. Puffiness and blueness under the eyes are clearly not attractive. Before going to bed at night, be sure to take care of your skin. However, this should be done at least an hour before going to bed. Otherwise, you may get morning swelling.

What should women who work at night do? It’s good to rest after night shifts, get enough sleep and not use decorative cosmetics. The way, if not you, then at least the skin rests fully at night. There is a secret regarding sleep: to get the maximum benefit from sleep, you need to build it in “bricks” of an hour and a half.

Let's not be lazy... relax!

Proper and proper rest will help to prolong youth after 40 years. This doesn’t have to mean watching a TV series on the couch (although no one forbids occasionally treating yourself to this “chewing gum for the brain”).

Periods of complete rest should be replaced by times of active recreation: skiing, hiking, visiting exhibitions, theater, cinema, drawing, ceramics, playing music. Such alternation with the inclusion of a creative element will help relieve tension, but for facial skin the condition nervous systems s is of great importance.

Move more

Active movement after 40 years is mandatory. Fitness and sports are not the only solution. If you didn’t have the habit of sweating in the gym before, then it’s unlikely to appear now. You need to choose those options that will bring you pleasure: long walks in the fresh air at an average pace, swimming or water aerobics.

Breathing practices are very good for tightening the skin of the body and face: yoga, oxysize, bodyflex. It happens that a woman has wanted to take up dancing all her life. Now is the time! Dreams should come true, especially those that will help preserve youth and beauty.

Nutrition - special attention

It's time to reconsider your diet. This is due to hormonal changes in the body on the eve of menopause. Those foods that were previously easily digestible should now be removed from the diet. Swelling is caused by everything salty and smoked, especially eaten at night.

Foods rich in omega fatty acids are necessary for beauty: seafood, fatty sea fish, flaxseeds, beans, nuts, strawberries, cauliflower, eggs. Be sure that more than half of the diet should be fresh (or, in extreme cases, stewed) vegetables.

When it comes to eating meat, you need to listen to yourself. If your body needs meat, please! But with a condition: we remove fatty pork, lard, and lamb from the diet. Preferred are rabbit, lean beef, veal, and lean poultry.

The list of daily foods should include fermented milk products and whole grains. But it’s better to forget about sparkling water, confectionery, and refined foods.

The body needs to be supported with calcium supplements to prevent the age-related development of osteoporosis.

Drinking regime

Another important point is the correct drinking regime. You need to drink at least one and a half liters of pure water daily without gas, flavoring or aromatic additives. Water will maintain the internal cleanliness of the body, preventing decay products from accumulating. In addition, water will slow down the drying of the skin and prevent the formation of early deep wrinkles.

To support the body, you can use recipes for the so-called elixirs of youth. These are rejuvenating mixtures and infusions that can be quite easily prepared at home. Mix an equal amount of fresh lemon juice, honey, olive oil and take the mixture in the morning half an hour before meals.

Mix 400 grams of chopped garlic with juice squeezed from 25 medium lemons. Infuse the mixture in the refrigerator for three weeks, then take it before bed, stirring a teaspoon of elixir in a hundred-gram glass of clean water.

Nutrition is very important for facial skin. Ingesting a sufficient amount of vitamins, minerals, micro- and macroelements into the body with food will guarantee prolongation of the youth of the skin.

Facial skin care

The main rule of facial skin care after 40 years is regularity and completeness. The stages of daily care should include cleansing, toning, moisturizing during the day, nourishing at night. Serums can and should be used in courses under the main cream.

During this period, the skin needs water more than ever. Age-related dehydration, caused by the inability of cells to retain moisture, leads to dryness and the formation of a large number of skin creases (wrinkles). That is why moisturizing the epidermis is the main task of a woman of forty years of age.

Selection of cream

The skin needs to be carefully treated in the morning and especially in the evening, getting ready for bed. You need to start by selecting a cream based on your skin type and time of application. In the morning and evening it should be different means. The task of the day cream is to moisturize the epidermis and protect from adverse weather and solar ultraviolet radiation. Night cream should saturate the skin with the maximum amount of nutrients and vitamins.

Creams should be produced by the same company, this will allow the substances they contain to work more effectively. Be sure to include age-related serums in your night and day care. You can simply add vitamin solutions and a drop of sea buckthorn oil to your day and night cream. This will perfectly nourish and heal the skin.

Skin cleansing

An important step is cleansing the skin. After 40 years, it becomes thinner and more sensitive, so it is better to wash off cosmetics and fat with milk, a special water- or oil-based product, and gentle movements. You cannot rub, stretch, or scrub the skin. Scrubs are good for young dermis. At the age of forty, you should give preference to cleansing masks and chemical peels. As a last resort, you can cleanse your skin with facial microdermabrasion cosmetic products.

Special care from a cosmetologist

A forty-year-old woman should visit a cosmetologist at least once a month. Acid peels, which delicately remove the upper dead layer of cells, visually rejuvenate the skin. Nourishing highly active masks fill it with vitality.

If possible, you need beauty injections with hyaluronic acid. Deep hydration will slow down the aging process and tighten the skin. Injection cosmetology today can work wonders: minimize the effects of hormonal changes, provide excellent lifting, erase wrinkles, restore a swollen oval.

Home care

What to do if there is no opportunity to visit a cosmetologist? You can effectively rejuvenate your face with home care products, carrying out full-fledged cosmetic procedures yourself. Light peelings with AHA acids are produced by many cosmetic companies. You need to purchase such a product and use it regularly. Glycerin-based masks will deeply moisturize the skin and compete with injection mesotherapy.

To prolong the youth of your skin, be sure to include a facial massage in your care. There are many techniques that you can learn on your own. An oil or honey massage has a fantastic effect on the skin. The effect accelerates metabolic processes, restores facial contours, and activates blood circulation. Together, all this leads to significant visual rejuvenation. You can lose ten years without much difficulty.

In summer you should avoid sunbathing. Solar ultraviolet ages the skin, so it needs to be protected with products with a high UV filter. The same goes for the solarium: visits should either be stopped or minimized.

What else can you do?

To prolong youth after 40 years, you can follow other simple rules.

1. Every morning, wipe your skin with ice cubes of water or herbal infusions. So, an ice cube made from a decoction of fresh parsley will lighten the skin under the eyes and get rid of swelling.
2. If you have spider veins, you should not do ice rubs. A replacement can be morning washing with warm herbal decoctions, green or herbal tea.
3. You can make masks from natural fresh vegetables, fruits, and berries. They contain useful acids, vitamins, and minerals that are beneficial for aging skin. Kiwi and pineapple make excellent peelings with natural fruit acids.
4. Smile more, it trains your facial muscles and makes it attractive.
5. Occasionally pinch your facial skin. This tones her up.
6. Facial gymnastics is a great way to tighten your face. It is very easy to master, but the results will only come with constant use. If training is irregular, there is no point in it. The daily lesson should last from ten to twenty minutes. Particular attention should be paid to wrinkles that have appeared, areas of sagging skin, affecting the desired groups of facial muscles.
7. This exercise gives a very good tightening effect. You need to smile and then move your chin forward, tensing the muscles of your face and neck as much as possible. Repeat the exercise ten to twenty times. You can make this grimace several times during the day.

Home cosmetology

Regular homemade masks are a great way to rejuvenate your face. Self-prepared masks with chicken yolk, honey, and lemon are excellent at fighting wrinkles.

This recipe is good: mix a teaspoon of apple juice (only natural, not from a store bag), an yolk, freshly squeezed juice of half a medium lemon, a spoonful of apricot cosmetic oil. Mix everything and apply to face daily for a week. You need to keep the mask on your face for 15-20 minutes. You can store the mixture in the refrigerator.

To maintain youthful skin, you can prepare a tonic by mixing chopped parsley, dill, linden blossom, oak bark, sage in equal proportions (a large spoon) and pouring two glasses of boiling water. Leave for two hours, strain, cool, add a large spoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Wipe the skin in the evening, before applying the cream.

Youth cannot be returned. However, after 40 years, it is possible to slow down the approach of old age, and it is possible to extend the time of beauty and attractiveness. The main thing is not to be lazy, follow the rules of care, lead a healthy lifestyle and love yourself.

Over the years, the skin loses its elasticity, wrinkles and age spots appear, the shade changes, and other signs of aging appear. These are typical age-related changes that all people experience, some to a greater extent, some to a lesser extent. Most often, they begin to actively manifest themselves after 35-40 years. However, don’t despair. There are effective ways to maintain youth after 40 and 45, to be beautiful and look no worse than 30-year-olds.

Principles of preserving youth

In order for your skin to remain young, fresh and attractive longer, you need to know certain secrets on how to stay healthy and full of strength:

• rejection of bad habits;
• normalization of nutrition;
• drinking fluids;
• physical activity;
• Facebook building;
• care for face, body, nails and hair;
• cloth.

If you follow the rules, you can prolong the youth of not only a woman’s face and body, but also the entire body as a whole for any number of years.

Each of these points requires detailed consideration.

Alcohol and cigarettes are not our friends

Alcohol and nicotine age and negatively affect blood vessels and female internal organs. As a result, blood supply deteriorates, which, in turn, leads to changes in skin tone, thinning, wrinkles, vascular network, swelling and other negative consequences. To avoid this, you need to completely abandon them. For those who have been smoking and drinking for many years, soft drinks and electronic cigarettes will help smooth out the transition period.

At the same time, it is necessary to understand that to maintain attractiveness, giving up bad habits alone will not be enough. To look young, you need to get quality sleep. Sleep should be at least 8 hours. In this case, daytime and nighttime sleep are not summed up. It's only about the night. Rest during the day is more intended for relaxation and cannot compensate for lack of sleep at night.

To rejuvenate the skin, you need to take care of the nervous system. Stress does not leave its mark on your appearance.

Proper nutrition after 40, 45 years

Over the past few years, there has been a lot of talk about proper nutrition. Snacks, fast foods, soda, sugar and other products age you and have a bad effect not only on your figure, but also on your skin. If they are abused, it is difficult to stay fit and fresh. The functioning of the sebaceous glands deteriorates, the shade changes, etc.

To maintain beautiful skin, improve the condition of blood vessels and internal organs, the body must regularly receive sufficient quantities of vitamins, minerals and other substances. To do this, the diet includes seasonal fruits and vegetables, protein, cereals and other products. At the same time, it is better to avoid fatty, salty, sweet, smoked foods, preservatives and other harmful foods or limit their consumption as much as possible.

There are a number of secrets that help improve skin condition and stay full of energy for many years:

• Serving size. According to numerous nutritionists, the body needs a portion the size of which does not exceed two human fists. Everything else turns into folds on the sides, deposited on the walls of blood vessels, etc. In addition, to digest large amounts of food, the body expends energy that it could save or use for other purposes. Thus, the withering process is accelerated.
• Number of meals. It is generally accepted that only infants can feed frequently. Actually this is not true. The recommended number of meals for an adult is 4-5 times a day. In this case, the portions should be small, as mentioned earlier. The last meal should be consumed no later than 3 hours before going to bed.
• Avoiding extremes and diets. What sacrifices many people make in pursuit of beauty. At the same time, moderation is necessary in everything. You should not abuse diets, giving up protein, fats or carbohydrates, as this ages the skin. Nutrition should be balanced and nutritious, regardless of the person’s age. In this case, it is not necessary to step on the throat of your principles. Vegans can easily replace meat protein with soy, beans, nuts and other products. The main thing is that the body receives protein in sufficient quantities. The same applies to vitamins and other substances.
• Unloading. Once a week you should give your body a fasting day. This does not mean that you need to completely stop eating and go hungry. This approach is a serious blow to the nervous system. It is much more effective to consume foods with low calorie content. It can be buckwheat, kefir, apples, etc. This low-calorie diet will not harm you and will help you stay healthy.

When planning your diet, take your age into account. After 40, metabolism slows down, so fatty foods cause a feeling of heaviness, fatigue increases, etc.

Speaking about how to maintain youth after 40 years, it should be noted that at this age a woman needs a sufficient amount of Omega 3, 6, 9 fatty acids, some of which are found in fish, nuts and other foods. Others are produced independently by the body. To provide the rest, it is recommended to use special vitamin complexes sold in pharmacies or on the Internet.

Drinking regime

To increase the elasticity of the epidermis, prolong youth and beauty, and prevent age-related changes, it is important that the skin and all other organs in general receive a sufficient amount of water. We are talking about ordinary still water. You need to drink 2-2.5 liters per day.

The first glass should be drunk in the morning on an empty stomach. The water should be warm. Additionally, you can add a few drops of lemon juice to it. This will allow the body to wake up and start the work of the gastrointestinal tract.

You should also drink at least 1 glass of liquid 30 minutes before your main meal. This will help deceive the body, temporarily dull the feeling of hunger and prevent overeating, since the liquid will take up space in the stomach.

During sports, a person should constantly drink purified water. Thus, metabolism improves, fat cells are quickly destroyed and removed from the body.

IN summer period The amount of liquid you drink should be increased by at least 30%. The body actively sweats. Water will help avoid dehydration and keep your skin supple.

We are friends with sports

In order to saturate the blood with oxygen, improve blood circulation and the general condition of the body, and become strong and fit, a middle-aged woman should exercise regularly.

Those who do not have the time or financial opportunity to visit the gym can take walks in the fresh air, perform basic exercises at home, etc. To do this, there is no need to purchase expensive equipment and devices. The step platform can be replaced with a low chair, dumbbells with water bottles, a barbell with a child, who will certainly be happy to play such a game, while the mother will strengthen the muscles and avoid their sagging.

Fat is deposited not only on the sides and other parts of the body. It envelops the heart, preventing it from fully performing its functions. The same applies to the liver and other internal organs whose activity is impaired. Also, fat cells negatively affect the blood formula and clog blood vessels. They can cause a heart attack or stroke.

The absence of excess fat deposits promotes health and rejuvenation.

It is necessary to understand that excess weight is a burden on the entire female body. Various functions and systems are affected, including the spine. As a result, it becomes distorted and, as a consequence, organs are displaced. This leads to subsequent disruption in their work. It is much healthier to do exercises every day than to see an aging reflection in the mirror.

Skin care after 40

Special exercises for the facial muscles and massage help to maintain the epidermis in good condition and eliminate small expression wrinkles.

The exercises can be done independently at home. To carry out a massage, you should seek help from a beauty salon, whose master is familiar with all the intricacies of the procedure.

It is recommended to do the exercises while sitting in front of a mirror. This will help you avoid mistakes and monitor the correct execution. The muscles should be tensed as much as possible. There is no need to rush for this. As a result of a high-quality session, a tingling and slight burning sensation occurs in the muscles. This is a normal phenomenon and indicates the effectiveness of the exercises.

They begin from top to bottom, that is, from the area between the eyebrows, gradually descending to the chin.

There are many face-building techniques invented by various specialists. They are all equally effective. To choose the most suitable one for yourself, you should try at least 2-3 different ones and eventually settle on one.

Carrying out such charging does not take much time. It can be done while working at the computer, preparing food, or taking a walk. True, in the latter option there is a risk of disapproving glances from other pedestrians.

Beauty care

After 40 and 45, the skin additionally needs high-quality daily care. This will help her stay elastic for many years. Beauty treatments include cleansing, moisturizing, nutrition. For this, various anti-aging agents are used. Mesotherapy, hyaluronic acid, Botox injections and other manipulations also have a positive effect on the skin and appearance in general.

The market for cosmetic anti-aging products is replete with various products. The assortment involuntarily makes your eyes widen. However, not all anti-aging compounds can actually bring benefits. A number of them do not perform any functions. At the same time, they can become a source of allergies and other skin reactions.

When choosing, you should pay attention to the manufacturer of anti-aging products. Preference is given to products manufactured by well-known manufacturers who have gained a good reputation in the market.

When discussing the problem of how to prolong youth after 40, we must not forget about the composition of cosmetic products. It is important that the product contains certain substances:

• Proteins and amino acids. Preference is given to substances of plant origin. The components help stimulate regeneration processes and accelerate the production of your own collagen and elastin. As a result, turgor increases.
• Vitamins A, E, C. The ingredients have antioxidant and anti-aging effects. A number of substances fill the folds of wrinkles, making them less noticeable and promoting rejuvenation.
• Peptides. The components penetrate into the deep layers of the epidermis, triggering metabolic processes in cells.
• Hyaluronic acid. The substance prevents moisture loss from cells and stimulates collagen production, improving tone and elasticity.
• Mucin. This is snail mucus, which has a powerful anti-aging effect. When used, facial wrinkles are smoothed out, skin hydration improves, and elasticity increases. Mucus is often used for rejuvenation.

If there are no vitamins in the composition, you can add them yourself to the cream or any other care product. For this, vitamins in capsules are used, for example, Aevit. The liquid is added to a small amount of the product and then applied to the face 30 minutes before bedtime. It can also be used in its pure form.

Nail and hair care

A young lady needs to take care of her nail plate and curls, which need nutrition and hydration. The fairer sex should take nail baths regularly. For this, herbs, paraffin and other components are used. To improve the condition of the plate, special cosmetics are used, which are rubbed into the surface every day before bed.

It is advisable to do manicure 3-4 times a month. It can be traditional or hardware based. The choice depends on individual preferences. It is better to refuse extensions.

Hair masks must be used after each wash. You can purchase professional products or prepare them yourself based on the products in your home refrigerator. There are a lot of similar recipes. Also, almost every young lady has her own secrets for making cosmetics.

The roots of the curls should be well dyed. You should cover your gray hair and wash your hair regularly to keep your hair looking beautiful and well-groomed.

To make the strands look healthy and create the appearance of additional volume, various techniques and techniques are used. In this case, it is better to seek help from a professional.

Daily care for colored curls should include the use of oils applied to lifeless ends.

Additionally, you can use ampoules for restoration and against hair loss.

In order to improve blood circulation, stimulate the growth of new hairs and improve the overall condition of the hair, you can massage your head daily.

Clothes after 40 – early to get bored!

It is important to try to review your wardrobe. Jeans, shorts and other items are comfortable. However, middle-aged young ladies in such outfits look strange, ugly and even ridiculous; such items are not able to rejuvenate a person. The same can be said about overly colorful products. Changing your wardrobe does not mean that you need to wear gray, shapeless clothes. You can easily choose outfits that highlight your figure and distract attention from flaws.

In this case, preference is given to:

• maxi or classic length skirts;
• loose-fitting trousers;
• dresses;
• stylish blouses;
• fitted jackets.

40 years is less than half of your life. Upon reaching it, the woman is not yet old, but no longer young. Children have grown up, education has been received, reputation and weight in society have been acquired - it’s time to take time for yourself and rejuvenate your body and skin.

Basic principles of preserving youth

Every woman who wants to have a beautiful appearance, a slim and toned body and young glowing skin should know 7 components to achieve this goal:

1. Rejection of bad habits.
2. Proper nutrition system.
3. Body fitness.
4. Exercises for the face.
5. Proper cosmetic skin care.
6. Nail and hair care.
7. A well-chosen wardrobe.

Each of the items on this list is fraught with many secrets, which we are ready to share with you. Let's begin!

A healthy lifestyle without harmful passions

Only the lazy do not know about the dangers of smoking, alcohol, and other harmful habits for the liver, kidneys and other organs and systems of the body. But at the same time, every lady over forty who wants to look younger should know that these passions are the worst enemies not only of health, but also of a blooming appearance. A sallow complexion, bags and bruises under the eyes, flabby, wrinkled skin - this is the lot of a woman who is unable to give up these addictions.

However, giving up cigarettes and booze will not be enough to maintain a youthful face and body if you want to appear 5-10 years younger. Forget about the habit of going to bed late, being nervous about every little thing, spending all your evenings on the couch with a plate of goodies - all this is no longer for you!

If you are interested in how to look younger at 40, but do not want to resort to the services of plastic surgeons, then all you need is a healthy and active lifestyle!

Proper nutrition system

In fact, there are many systems of rational and proper nutrition, including vegans, vegetarians, adherents of separate nutrition, and raw foodists. Each of these groups believes that their approach to choosing and eating food is the most correct. Arguing about which of them is right is a thankless task, because everyone is right in their own way and, in principle, each of the listed food systems has the right to life. But there are the most important principles that need to be adhered to if good appearance after 40 years is your goal.

Basic principles of healthy eating to preserve youth:

1. Moderation. Paul Bragg was firmly convinced that it is with forks and spoons that we dig our own graves, but he was a renowned expert in matters of longevity and knew exactly how to prolong youth. Don't believe in the truth of this phrase? In vain! Indeed, to digest the food entering our gastrointestinal tract, the body makes a lot of effort, essentially accelerating the aging process.
2. Timeliness. Do you want to stay in great physical shape without becoming balloon-sized after 40? Make it a rule to eat at least 4-5 times a day, and the last meal should be at least three hours before bedtime.
3. Balance. It doesn’t matter whether you eat meat or not, whether you combine proteins and carbohydrates in one meal - the main thing is that your body should receive a complete list of all the compounds, vitamins and microelements it needs every day, and where it will get them from - from meat or from lentils - a secondary question.
4. Time-out. Even your stomach sometimes needs a rest; whether it will be a fasting day, a 3-day fast or a 7-day fast is up to you to decide. But it is very important to sometimes unload our digestive tract so that it can get rid of the ballast of unnecessary substances.
5. If you want to eat, drink water. It sounds funny, but in fact it is very rational, because the fact that our brain often confuses thirst with hunger is a fact long proven by scientists. By making it a rule to drink at the first urge to refresh yourself, you will not only save yourself from dehydration, but also from overeating, saving your stomach from unnecessary work.

Of course, this list could be continued for a very long time, and only a nutritionist can choose the ideal diet for you according to your energy needs and age, but in our opinion, these 5 rules will really help prolong youth after 40.

Body fitness

The name of this section is very arbitrary, the main thing is that your body should be toned. It's not a matter of thinness, as many people think. Simply in order for the cardiovascular system to work efficiently, and for all organs to receive oxygen in sufficient quantities, and in a timely manner, there should not be excess fat mass. After all, every kilogram of excess weight is a kilometer of extra vascular network, which means your heart will work under overload conditions.

In addition, the muscular frame helps the spine remain straight, and as a result, your organs will be in their places, which will ensure their proper functioning. The metabolic rate directly depends on the level physical activity– and this is also an indisputable fact. If these arguments have convinced you of the need to keep your body in good shape, then all that remains for you is to choose the ideal load for the muscles. Some people like fitness, others prefer aerobics, others Pilates or oriental dancing - it doesn’t matter, the main thing is to constantly be on the move.

Facial exercises

No matter how slender the figure is, and how fit a woman looks from the back, the skin of the face and neck is what reveals one’s true age; you cannot hide it under beautiful clothes. This means that getting rid of wrinkles, sagging and dryness is our goal! In modern circles, selections of effective exercises are called the fashionable word face-building. Can't wait to find out what it is? We are happy to introduce you to the most effective exercises for prolonging the youth of your face after 40 years, reviews of which on beauty blogs are breaking all records for enthusiasm.

But first, check whether you have prepared correctly for the complex:

1. You should remove dirt and remnants of decorative cosmetics, and then apply a moisturizer to the skin.
2. It is most convenient to perform the exercises while sitting on a high-backed chair in front of a large mirror, so you can control whether you are doing all the movements correctly.
3. Take your time, perform the exercises measuredly with maximum muscle tension.
4. If there is a burning and tingling sensation in the muscles after performing the exercise, this means you can move on to the next one - you have already worked this muscle group.
5. A positive attitude and faith in the result are the key to success!

So, we present to your attention a selection of the most effective exercises for tightening the skin of the face and neck.

Area between eyebrows

All facelift exercises must be performed from top to bottom, which means our first exercise is aimed at tightening the skin in the area above the bridge of the nose.

1. Fix your eyebrows with your fingers at the bridge of your nose and frown 15-20 times for 2-3 seconds each.
2. Run two fingers (middle and ring fingers) 5 times from the middle of the eyebrows to the temples parallel to the hair growth area.
3. Place your fingers together (except the thumb) and tap their tips on the bridge of your nose with light movements for 1 minute.

Forehead

With these exercises you will not only get rid of wrinkles on your forehead, but also eliminate drooping eyelids.

1. Using our index fingers, we press down on the eyebrows and lift them up, making short pushes, until a burning sensation occurs. After this, within 30 seconds we pull our eyebrows down three times.
2. We fix the hair growth area with our index fingers, our eyes are closed, we make circular movements with them clockwise 3 times, then counterclockwise.
3. We open our eyes as wide and sharply as possible, raising our eyebrows 10-15 times.
4. We pull the skin of the forehead down with our hands, and raise the eyebrows up 5-7 times as much as possible.

Cheeks

By the age of 40, the cheeks lose their elasticity, so it is at this age that it becomes necessary to perform a number of exercises daily to keep them in great shape.

1. Smile, lifting the corners of your lips, and sharply return them to their original position. Repeat this exercise at least 30 times, imagine what movements your cheeks are making at this time.
2. Raise the corners of your lips to the maximum possible point and hold them in this position for 5-10 seconds. Repeat at least 3 times.
3. Clasp your hands and rest your chin on it. Direct the movements of your arms up and your face down for 15 seconds, do 3 repetitions.
4. Puff out your cheeks and roll the air from left to right for 30 seconds.

Nose

Many women don’t know, but it turns out that with the help of a special exercise you can not only narrow the tip of your nose, but also lift it up a little. To do this, grab the tip of your nose with the index finger and thumb of one hand, pull it up, and with the index finger of the other hand, fix the skin above the upper lip and pull it down. 5 repetitions per day will be enough.

Lower face area

This area contains the lips, chin and neck; a set of exercises will be aimed at their rejuvenation.

1. Purse your lips into a thin strip, smile, raising the corners of your lips, lower them again. We repeat these movements for 30 seconds.
2. We form our lips into a tube, as if blowing out candles, relax, tighten our lips again, and smile. 5-10 repetitions are required.
3. We stretch our lips into a “proboscis” and in this position we open and close our mouth 10 times.
4. We make 14 movements of the lower jaw in both directions.

If you perform the full range of suggested exercises every day, then in a month the rejuvenation of your face will become not a dream, but a reality. Everyone around you will be asking which cosmetologist you got into the habit of going to and what procedures you decided to undergo, and only you yourself will know that this result is the work of your own hands.

Proper cosmetic skin care

No matter what lifestyle a woman leads, without regular cleansing, moisturizing and nourishing, the skin of her body will definitely lose its radiance and elasticity by the age of 40. To prevent this from happening, cosmetologists around the world are developing modern and effective creams, masks and other care products. You can choose the appropriate option from the products offered in pharmacies, stores, online catalogs, or make it yourself.

When choosing a cream, you need to know about the changes that occur in your skin after forty. At this age, the appearance of wrinkles is often associated with the fact that the ability of body cells to produce collagen and elastin drops sharply, and the skin is also no longer able to maintain the moisture level without external replenishment. That is why a good cream for the age category 40+ should contain:

• protein compounds - proteins (elastin, collagen, keratin, etc.) But here it is important to know that the molecules of the finished components - collagen and elastin, are not able to penetrate the skin barrier due to the large size of the molecules, so it is better if the product contains amino acids . From these, the body itself will be able to create the necessary derivatives;
• retinoids, so-called derivatives of vitamin A. The most famous representatives of these compounds are retinaldehyde, tretinoin, retinol, retinol palmitate, etc. It is they that cause skin cells to regenerate and, as it were, “fill in” wrinkles. It is not advisable to use creams based on these components before age 40, but after crossing this age limit, on the contrary, it is highly recommended;
• Peptides are nothing more than protein derivatives. These substances easily reach the deepest layers of the skin and activate collagen production in them. The most well-known compounds are polypeptide, tripeptide, matrixyl, oligopeptide.

Rejuvenation with the help of creams from proven brands containing components from this list can be quite effective. Manufacturers offer a lot of products in this category, but we will list the 10 most popular and well-proven creams according to reviews from cosmetologists and consumers:

1. NeutrogenaHealthySkin Anti-Wrinkle Cream 40ml. An anti-aging cream whose main action is hydration.
2. Coral Club C7 Age Defyind Moisturizer is a moisturizing cream to slow down the aging process produced by Coral Club.
3. VichyLiftactivRetinol HA 30ml – cream containing retinol for women 40+.
4. OLAY Cream “Regenerist. MicroSculptor of the face" 50 ml.
5. Clarins Multi-Regenerante Jour cream with lifting effect 40+.
6. Cream Expert Black Pearl after 46 years 50 ml. Budget option for skin rejuvenation 45+.
7. L`Oreal Age Perfect 50 ml. Thanks to the melanin block content, it not only rejuvenates the skin, but also eliminates age spots.
8. VichyNeovadiol. For rejuvenation of sensitive skin 40+.
9. Plazan. Cream collagen promises instant tightening and effective nutrition of the skin.
10. OlayTotalEffects. Effectively combat the main 7 signs of skin aging.
11. L`OrealDermaGenesis. Moisturizing cream for ladies 40+.

Of course, you can independently choose the option that suits you from this list, but it is better to do this together with a cosmetologist. After all, a specialist will help you choose a product taking into account the age, type, condition and needs of your skin.

Nail and hair care

No matter how beautiful your skin looks and how toned your figure is, with grown-out roots of gray hair and broken, unkempt nails, you will definitely look much older than your age. Therefore, if you want to produce a wonderful effect on everyone around you, visiting a manicurist 2 times a month, as well as a hair stylist, is simply necessary.

The right wardrobe

It would seem that jeans, short skirts and bold colors - what can make you look younger? In fact, by dressing in these outfits, you will produce the effect of not looking young, but looking like “youthful” women.

But choosing a pair of elegant dresses, classic skirts and trousers and fashionable blouses will be very useful. It is quite possible to look young and respectable at the same time.

If you use our advice, you will look as beautiful and young as at the very beginning of your life. In fact, attractiveness and beauty are available to a woman at any age. The main thing is to have the desire and show perseverance on the path to them. Always be charming!

Hello, our dear beauties! When a girl is 20-25 years old, turning forty seems like an infinitely distant age, almost old age. But then comes this very milestone about which Yuri Vizbor sang: “Taking the age of forty as the middle, we will stand on this pass and quietly move into a new valley...” and it turns out that this age has nothing to do with old age.

A new stage simply begins when a woman knows what she wants from life and knows how to achieve it. The children have grown up, there is time to take care of themselves, their thoughts, their not yet old body.

5. Healthy sleep;
6. Positive attitude.

Rejuvenating cleansing

Skin care after 40 years, and even after 45 and after 50 years, consists of various pleasant procedures and manipulations, for which it is not at all necessary to visit expensive spa salons and cosmetic surgeons. With folk remedies you can achieve very good skin condition.

To clean up your apartment, you need to get rid of unnecessary and unnecessary trash. In caring for the body and face, the algorithm of actions is exactly the same: first we get rid of unnecessary things - we cleanse the skin. Peels help women over 40 with this especially well. They remove the top layer, open the pores for nourishing masks, all these procedures will preserve your beauty for a long time.

Before exfoliating, you need to thoroughly cleanse your face and body. It is better to carry out this procedure in the evening, no more than 2 times a week. The fact is that when peeling, the top layer of the epidermis is removed, that is, the toxins that accumulate in it are actually “burned” and mixed with cosmetics, dust, and all the substances with which the city air is saturated. It is these harmful substances that make facial skin dull and grayish in appearance.

Please, before trying any product on yourself, make sure that you are not allergic to it. It's easy to do - just apply a small amount to your wrist and wait a few minutes. If unpleasant sensations appear - burning, itching, redness - this means you need to use another remedy.

Peels are easy to prepare from simple ingredients:

• Kiwi. This green fruit literally dissolves the protein compounds that hold the top film of the epidermis together. Cut the fruit, mash it with a fork or grind it in a blender. Spread the resulting paste on your face. You should not keep this mask for longer than 15-20 minutes, kiwi is a very active fruit. If itching and tingling of the skin occurs, wash off the mask without waiting for the specified period.
• Any berries: currants, plums, raspberries, strawberries. You can use puree from a mixture of berries, or you can use each one individually. The principle of action is the same: apply to cleansed skin, hold for 15-20 minutes, then rinse off. It will be better if, after applying the first layer, you wait until it dries, then apply another 2-3 layers in the same way.
• Oatmeal, kefir, chopped prunes. This is a truly magical combination of products that perfectly cleanses the skin of not only the face, but also the body. Mix all ingredients in equal quantities and use as a peeling 1-2 times a week.
• Don't forget about the cleansing properties cosmetic clay. Masks made from it will help you free your pores from accumulated toxins.
• Perfectly cleanses and nourishes the skin nut peeling. Grind the walnuts to flour in a blender or coffee grinder, add the yolk, a tablespoon of either olive or nut oil. Massage the mixture onto your face and neck, then rinse with warm water.

Another luxurious peeling for the face and body is coffee. In addition to its cleansing function, it lifts your spirits, delighting you with its aroma.

After peeling, the skin is especially susceptible to the external environment. Now is the time to “feed” her with nourishing masks. They must be done according to your skin type, 2-3 times a week.

Do not forget that if you have contraindications for any components of the mask, exclude them from your list of daily care products.

A beauty makes a miracle face mask

• Mask for dry skin. Mix mashed banana with a fork with potato starch and heavy cream until thick sour cream. Apply the resulting mixture to your face in several layers (apply one layer, it dries, apply the next, so 3-4 layers, paying special attention to places where there are wrinkles). Lie down for half an hour, listen to pleasant music, meditate, or even take a nap. Then rinse everything off with a cotton pad soaked in warm water.
• Mask for any skin from birch leaves. Birch leaves for these purposes should be collected in the forest or in the park. In no case near the road, because trees growing next to the road absorb all the harmful substances from car exhaust. Grind a handful of fresh leaves in a blender, add a tablespoon of oatmeal and the same amount of any oil - linseed, olive, jojoba. Apply the resulting paste to your face and neck for 15 minutes, then rinse with cool water. This mask perfectly moisturizes and smoothes the skin.
• Ambulance mask. It helps to tighten, nourish the face and neck with beneficial substances, giving them a fresh and radiant look. This mask is good to make when you need to quickly get yourself in order after a hard day at work, and you only have about forty minutes to eat. Quickly mix half a teaspoon of lemon juice, an egg yolk, a little (literally a tablespoon) of olive oil and rolled oats in a blender. Apply the resulting mixture to your face and neck, lie down for 15-20 minutes. It will be very good if you lie down so that your legs are raised and resting against the wall. Don't forget your eyes! Apply a special smoothing mask to your eyelids.
• Eye mask. As usual, everything is simple - grate a potato on a fine grater, put the resulting pulp on cheesecloth, and place it all over your eyes. While the face and neck are nourished by the previous mask, potatoes will save your eyes from dark circles and swelling.
• Mask for oily skin. Brew a tablespoon of corn flour with boiling water, cool to a pleasantly warm temperature. Apply to face, leave for 15 minutes, rinse. During these 15 minutes, prepare the same mixture, just add a little lemon juice to it (you can use finely grated lemon zest). Repeat the procedure. This mask tones, strengthens, tightens, and gives the face a matte appearance.

The simplest (but no less effective) mask is sour cream or any fermented milk product. Apply, leave for 15-20 minutes, rinse. The skin after such a mask is dazzlingly fresh and moisturized.

It is important that during any procedures you do not forget about your neck and the area of ​​your chic décolleté. If you pamper only your face with peelings/masks/creams, then your neck will “revenge” you with a shocking difference - the skin of your face and neck will differ as if there was a gap of 20 years between them. And this usually happens abruptly and unexpectedly. So never put off caring for your swan until next time. Everything we do for the face must also be done for the neck!

Daily care procedures

Unfortunately, masks alone are not enough. To maintain your beauty and maintain your youth, you need to develop new habits that will help you in this important matter. For example, these:

• Rubbing the face, neck and décolleté with ice. Every day, rub the indicated areas along the massage lines 2 times a day before applying the cream, morning and evening. It’s very easy to make ice - pour an infusion of herbs and tea into the molds; you can freeze any homemade fruit or vegetable juices (just don’t add sugar to them).
• Apply cream to your skin daily. It is not necessary to choose expensive creams, the main thing is that they suit your skin type and age. Now in various price categories you can find creams for aging or mature female facial skin after 40, 45 years. Also keep in mind that day and night creams have different compositions and properties. For example, night cream should be applied no later than 2 hours before bedtime. Otherwise, in the morning you will find that swelling has formed on your face.

A prerequisite is to maintain the tone of the muscles of the face and neck. This can be done with the help of special lymphatic drainage massage and gymnastics.

Massage is our savior

Before the massage, you need to thoroughly cleanse the skin; it is good if you use any oil mixed with water during the massage. This will allow your hands to glide over the skin without stretching it. You should always start with the neck and décolleté. Repeat each movement at least three times.

Neck and décolleté massage techniques

• Lightly stroke the front of the neck from bottom to top.
• We stroke the sides and back of the neck with our palms from top to bottom, moving our palms to our shoulders, as if relieving ourselves of accumulated tension.
• From the center of the neckline, first with the right hand, then with the left hand, apply light pressure to the opposite shoulder, and again, as if throwing off the worries of the day.

Face: initial stage, preparatory

• We begin to massage the face with light stroking movements from the chin to the temples
• From the tips of the lips to the temples.
• We move our fingertips from the bridge of the nose under the eyes to the temples.
• Along the forehead - from the center to the temples.

Face and neck together: the main stage that disperses lymph

We apply it with stronger pressure, trying not to stretch the skin (water and oil will help us with this; we need to wet our hands with them), along the same lines. Main differences from the preparatory stage:

• Firstly, stronger pressure;
• Secondly, after you have brought your palms to your temples, you must definitely “dump” the lymph by running your hands from the temples along the sides of the neck to the shoulders.

You can work on particularly problematic areas - nasolabial folds, chin. After preparation, gently press these places with your fingers and drain the lymph first to the temples, then down the neck to the shoulders.

The final stage for the face and neck

Lightly stroke the face with open palms along the massage lines, the front of the neck from bottom to top, the sides of the neck from top to bottom.

And here is the video instruction (lymphatic drainage massage):

For the face, gymnastics is not plastic surgery!

It has long been known that our muscles create a kind of framework for the skin. If the muscles are flabby, then the skin will be saggy and wrinkled. The face is no exception. To stay young and beautiful for as long as possible, it is important to maintain the muscle frame of the face and neck in good shape.

Here are some exercises to help you with this:

• "Smiley" to improve facial contour. We purse our lips, drawing them inward, and smile. We count to twenty. Please note: the exercise is done correctly if you feel the muscles of not only your cheeks and lips tense. The neck and chin should also be “tight”. We perform this exercise 2-3 times.
• For forehead wrinkles. Use your index fingers to completely close your eyebrows. We begin to be surprised at our beauty, raising our eyebrows, while holding them with our fingers and resisting, counting to 10. We repeat a couple more times.
• For eyelids. We place our fingers on the forehead so that it does not wrinkle during the exercise. We open our eyes wide, wide, raising our eyebrows. At this moment, tension is created in the eye muscles. We keep our eyes in this state, counting to five, then lower the upper eyelid, but continue to keep the tense state of the eyelids. On the count of five we release, blink several times and repeat the exercise from the beginning. This exercise should be done five times in total.
• For the lower eyelid. We place the index finger on the outer edge of the eye, the ring finger on the inner edge. Pressing the skin with our fingers, we squint, raising the lower eyelid. We hold the eye muscle in this position, counting to five. Then we look up, while the forehead should be relaxed. We don’t give up, we repeat everything from the beginning.
• To remove wrinkles between eyebrows. We place our palm on the border of the forehead and hair, trying to “move” the hair away from the face. At the same time, we look down, close our eyes, and begin to lower our upper lip down. Repeat 8 times in three approaches.
• From nasolabial folds. We round our lips, as if saying the letter O, tense our lips, and lower them down. We do this 8 times in three approaches.

As you can see, all these exercises are very simple, you can perform them at home in front of the mirror in the evening before bed, or, if you have time, in the morning, after washing your face.

How to eat to prolong youth

There are a huge number of different diets. They are all different, but they are “structured” approximately the same - it is necessary to reduce the amount of food, sometimes to an unbearably small size. Often women, having gathered their will into a fist, adhere to a strict diet for some time, but then a breakdown occurs, after which all the lost kilograms are returned with interest.

You can drink a glass of kefir at night, add a teaspoon of cinnamon to it - it will taste better, especially since cinnamon helps you lose weight. This rule is mega important, especially for women over 40 years old. The fact is that almost any product contains at least a small proportion of carbohydrates, after the consumption of which insulin is produced. It blocks the production of growth hormone, which is responsible for tissue renewal, in fact, for their rejuvenation.
4. Try avoid spicy, smoked, salty, starchy and sweet foods, it provokes swelling, accelerates skin aging, disrupts the body's metabolic and recovery processes, and increases appetite.
5. It is important that the foods you eat contain as much less unhealthy fats. In this case, do not forget about healthy fats: nuts, flaxseed and unrefined sunflower oil, fatty fish, avocado - all these products are very useful for skin and hair, as well as for normal metabolism.
6. It will be very good if you use foods rich in vitamin C, because this is the most important vitamin for maintaining youthful skin. Rose hips, black currants, bell peppers, herbs, citrus fruits - all this should be part of your diet.
7. Don't forget about squirrels, because it is a building material for muscles, so cottage cheese, kefir, and any dairy products are very useful. But at the same time, remember that women after 40 years of age are better off consuming fermented milk products; unfortunately, milk is no longer as easily absorbed by the body.
8. Of course, it is very important to eat plenty every day. foods rich in fiber(half a kilogram of vegetables and fruits, mostly raw). Do not exclude legumes and cereals from your diet; eat them at least every other day.
9. After forty years, the level of the hormone estrogen decreases, in order to replenish it, you can try to consume as much as possible foods rich in phytoestrogens– these are the same vegetables, fruits, herbs, corn grits. These products will compensate for the lack of female hormones and will ensure your good health and appearance for a long time. Thanks to all this, you will look several years younger than your biological age.
10. If a woman after 40 wants to be energetic, active, and not gain weight, then in this case she will have to reduce not only the calorie intake, but also the amount of food. At the age of 40, you need to eat 15-20% less than at the age of twenty, and at 50 – 25-30%.

Gradually, without forcing yourself, introduce all these changes in nutrition - after a while you will be surprised to suddenly discover that what previously seemed difficult and difficult has begun to be done easily and without stress. Well, in order to stay young longer, you need to pay attention to your motor pattern, and, what may be even more important, to your attitude towards life.

Nutrition is one of the foundations of preserving youth. If masks, massage and facial gymnastics can still be ignored by you, then nutrition must be healthy.

Active movement – ​​self-rejuvenation

Unfortunately, we have not yet developed techniques that will give humanity eternal youth. But in order to lead an active life, to stay young, vigorous and energetic for as long as possible, you need to introduce physical exercise into your daily schedule.

• At least 5 times a week, devote 40-50 minutes to any physical activity. Nowadays there is a very large selection of exercise machines, using which you can simulate cycling, walking and even running.
• By doing the same exercises outdoors, you saturate your blood with oxygen, which is a known aid in the fight against aging.
• How to understand that you are “actively” moving? It’s very simple: for example, while walking you walk at an intensity of about 2 steps per minute, your breathing is rapid, but at the same time you can chat on the phone with a friend for a short time.
• Any exercise will be very useful and important for women after 40 years of age, as this speeds up metabolism, burns fat deposits, and trains the heart and vascular system. Again, any sports exercise contributes to the production of endorphins, which improve your mood.

By this age, many already have their own car, and move in the usual circle: home-car-work-car-shop-car-home. Sometimes destinations such as a “beauty salon” or, occasionally, a “trip to nature,” or even less often, a “fitness club,” are added to this circle. But in vain, by the way!

In order to avoid adding the “hospital” item to this circle for as long as possible, it is necessary to break the links of this chain and insert “walking,” “sports,” “bathhouse,” “dancing,” “yoga.” Perhaps you will come up with something else, something that you like, but, as you understand, the main thing is to start moving more than you are doing now.

By the way, here is an article about gymnastics for women after 40 years - recommendations on the types and intensity of exercise, as well as several sets of exercises (including a video version).

In terms of importance, physical activity competes with nutrition, taking an honorable second place. Do you know athletic girls over 40 who look their age?! Same thing. If you want to be young and active, you cannot do without physical activity.

• And here Irina Allegrova claims that periodically changing husbands helps her maintain her tone. According to her, husbands need to be changed every 5-6 years. Of course, this is a joke) In fact, the “empress” is very respectful of massage, swimming, and any water procedures in general. Loves to take a steam bath. She has another secret - as soon as the snow melts, with the arrival of early spring, Irina sleeps on the veranda of her house in a sleeping bag. While sleeping in the fresh air, the skin is saturated with oxygen and rejuvenated.
• Famous TV presenter Ekaterina Andreeva also claims that sleeping in a cool room helps preserve youth. In her opinion, it is very important to sleep at least 8 hours a day, but it is not at all necessary to exhaust yourself by getting up early and abruptly. Awakening should be gradual and calm. It’s good to do a little energy exercise, for example, rub your ears until a feeling of warmth appears in them, lightly pat yourself on the head several times. Turn your head in different directions, then you will feel that the energy of the day seems to flow into you and fill you with new strength. In general, you need to eat right, move a lot and look at the world positively.

Keep your face in great shape without resorting to Botox

For many, this type of procedure does not inspire confidence and they prefer to use alternative means.

Such means include facial gymnastics. In order for your tummy to be beautiful and toned, there is probably no better way than constantly pumping up your abs and keeping your muscles toned.
