We can’t do anything about the natural aging process, but here are some interesting methods that people around the world use to stay looking as young as they can for as long as they can.
In Brazil, it’s common to see women reclining on the beach and rubbing handfuls of sand on their bodies. Why? It supposedly helps with cellulite and smoothes and stimulates the skin.
 Camellia oil is said to be the Japanese geisha’s secret to smooth and flawless skin. White camellia nut oil used for centuries in Asia, contributes its moisturizing, conditioning, nourishing, and softening benefits to the skin. Camellia oil gives the skin a texture and glow unmatched by any other skin care product. This special formulation helps eliminate wrinkles after giving birth, revitalizes hair growth, and treats burns. It helps restructure the skin and strengthen nails. It is one of the most rapidly absorbed oils, making it an excellent choice as a facial oil.
China’s anti-aging secret is white tea. White tea comes from the silver tip of the green tea plant. It’s also known as the emperor’s tea. It houses all the antioxidants in the tip. It acts as an environmental shield that free radicals can’t penetrate through. They supposedly bounce off free radicals and fend off aging.
For Scandinavians, they simply drink at least 1.5 liters of pure spring water every day and splash the face 15-20 times twice a day with ice cold spring mineral water which will encourage the skin's own natural functions. It regulates itself without the aid of expensive exfoliating and rejuvenating lotions. The ice cold water helps to reduce puffiness as well.Labels: anti-aging |
