“In Hollywood I was astonished, facing epidemic enthusiasm for vitamins. Due to this I composed a weekly schedule of taking fresh drinks, based on fruits and vegetable juices, vitamins A, C and E, which should be taken before breakfast.

 

Monday: the following day after lavish weekend meals I recommend a strong cleanser: squeeze juice of one lemon in a glass of warmed mineral water, lemon is a universal remedy in beauty care. It has a toning, anti-infective effect.

 

Tuesday: carrot juice, I also add juice of parsley bunch to it.

 

Wednesday: fresh grape juice.

 

Thursday: in summer - mixture of berries: raspberry, strawberry, currant. During rest seasons - grapefruit.

 

Friday: to prepare yourself for possible weekend excesses, I prescribe myself a diuretic - a glass of leek extract.

 

Saturday: apricot juice.

 

Sunday: a glass of Bordeaux.

 

Besides, I resort to magnesium regularly, as it is a reliable remedy against stress. We know that this element balances out nervous system, but we often forget that, if we feel tired or suppressed without any visible reason, this happens due to magnesium deficit”.

Counting to eight, lower upper lip down slowly, as of you are stretching it. You should sense upper lip muscles tension. When lip is pressed to thumbs, stay in such position for 5 seconds. Not changing position of thumbs, relax muscles slowly, counting to eight. Repeat exercise three times.

 

Women, having not very good vision, often narrow eyes, and due to this small wrinkles in eye corners appear. You should take care of your sight! Include carrot and bilberry in your allowance.

To keep skin around eyes young for a long, do special exercises, smoothing out wrinkles and removing puffiness, once a day: stare straight before yourself with eyes wide open, count to eight, close your eyes, relax. Screw up your eyes and count to five. Seat in front of the mirror and, lowering your chin, look at your reflection. Close your eyes little by little, until there’s a small chink - then close your eyes completely.

 

Remember, straight sun light is dangerous for eyes and contributes to quick ageing of skin. And, as it is known, skin around eyes is the most sensitive one and you should take a special care about it. And not only in summer. In winter and early spring our eyes are even more unprotected in front of UV radiation. So while bright sunny days put on good sun glasses. Choosing sun glasses, consider some rules: lenses of dark-grey and dark-green colors filter most quantity of UV rays, yellow - increase picture contrast, glasses of other colors, for example, violet, have merely decorative function, as they cannot hold back harmful ultraviolet. For cold season “chameleon” glasses are good, they darken while increase of white light.

In the night face should have a rest, so sleep on back. Remember, during night’s rest head should be oriented on North or East. Before sleep hydrotherapeutic procedures with usage of special remedies, helping to relieve stress and tiredness, are useful. But you should not take hot bath - it excites. Don’t forget to remove make-up before going to bed.

Conditions of sleep are very important for full-value rest. So, take care your bedroom’s temperature is not too high or low. Remove clock near bed, the sound will irritate you during whole night. Room, you sleep in, should be protected from noise and light with dark curtains.

 

Learn relaxing during sleep, try to lie prone in a bed, grow into it with all parts of body, like small babies do it. As a result, you will gain profound sleep and full-value rest.

 

Modern scientists connect premature ageing with bad state of backbone. Even rare, weak pains in back - are a signal about troubles in this important department of organism. While standing at work, take care that your back is straight, you can reduce load on waist, putting your feet on a small support every 20 minutes in turns, you need to shift from one foot to the other periodically.

 

While sitting work lean your back against chair, sit straight, not bowing your head forward and bending your body, put elbows on one level with general chair surface. Those, who carry bag over shoulder, should change position, if they don’t do this, curvature of the spine is possible. Go upstairs more often.

During a night many bacteria accumulate in mouth cavity. And if you don’t brush your teeth before breakfast, like many people do, postponing this procedure by the moment they finish a meal, then you run risk to “enrich” them with bigger quantity of microbes (what destroys teeth) during a meal. Last researches proved that one should brush teeth no longer than for 2 minutes. This time is enough to remove debris, further brushing peels nothing from teeth, just traumatizes enamel and gums, especially if you press on a toothbrush.

 

By the way, with help of a toothbrush you can??¦ tame your appetite. The matter is that our organism formed a reflex: teeth are brushed, this means we ended with a meal. If you suddenly wish to snack before going to bed, but you should not, just brush your teeth. Brain will receive a signal that you ended with eating today.

 

Don’t ignore a rule of regular visits to a dentist, and then your teeth will remain strong and healthy for a long.

 

 

Who argues: high heels are beautiful, elegant, sexual??¦ But you should not wear them too often. Many women spend the whole day on high heels - it’s beautiful. But it’s dangerous for spine.

As a result, you receive an additional bend in lumbar spine, what leads to irregular load on lumbar vertebrae. Besides, while frequent wearing of high heels your knees run risk of retiring on a pension earlier, than you. They will become limp and guttered. When women wear high heels, pressure on knees increases, that’s why they age much earlier, than they should.

 

 

You can and should exercise in the morning and run in the evening??¦ But you should not try to overpower your possibilities! Don’t exhaust yourself with excessive procedures, not to wear out your organism. For example, if it’s difficult for you to run, you should better walk.
