Beauty according to the laws of natural harmony.
Recipes for effective skin care using the gifts of nature are passed down from generation to generation in the East. Their main feature: complex improvement of the body as a whole. For example, everyone knows the commitment of the inhabitants of eastern countries to the use of green tea. This pleasant procedure is based not only on national traditions that promote unhurried communication and self-contemplation, but also the fight against free radicals that accelerate the aging process. In China, green tea has been considered the healthiest drink for over 4 thousand years. The Japanese, who prioritize this natural source of antioxidants, have low mortality rates.
Ginseng, as one of the components of tea drinks, has been deservedly popular for several centuries. It is known for its ability to tone the body and improve its blood circulation. Antioxidant properties help the skin to maintain its freshness and elasticity.
The sacrament of healing touch.
Today, every inhabitant of the planet knows about the benefits of massage, and in the East they not only know this, but have also been using it in practice for more than 5 thousand years. This is evidenced by numerous ancient manuscripts. The use of massage helps to overcome destructive stress, the source of many diseases, and improve blood flow. The benefits for beautiful skin are undeniable.
Exotic cuisine for radiant skin.
The oriental menu has its own specifics. A significant proportion of it is constituted by components that slow down the aging process: rice, honey, cucumbers, cherries, avocados, mushrooms. Of particular note is the healing properties of shiitake mushrooms, which contain calcium, iron, magnesium, B vitamins. Shiitake not only supply the body with useful substances, but also contribute to skin rejuvenation.
Flower baths for the celestials.
What could be more delightful than a bath filled with fragrant lotus, rose, lily or orchid petals? This beauty procedure was appreciated by residents of China, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. They have been using them for a long time to improve the softness and smoothness of the skin. Such a fragrant bath also helps to restore weakened energy. No wonder the first stage of the ceremony in ancient times was the recitation of certain spells.
Snow-white skin color is available not only to the elite.
In many eastern countries, swarthy girls had to work hard to prove their belonging to the aristocracy, a sign of which was the pallor of the skin. To lighten the skin, washing with water with peach flowers was used. But another method was considered more effective: 15-minute masks from mint leaves, crushed to a pasty state.
Is it easy to find beauty according to oriental recipes? Worth trying. At least, there will be nothing but benefits for appearance and health in general from such a decision.
