1. We wake up correctly

In the morning, lying in bed, open your eyes wide. Then open your mouth, as if yawning (this relieves nighttime jaw tension). Stretch your arms behind your head, bending at the elbows. Now legs. This allows you to start energy flows. You will be cheerful and radiant all day long.

2. Glass of water

Waking up, drink right in bed in small sips a glass of water, placed next to the evening. French nutritionist Madeleine Gesta believes that this is the best way to get rid of puffiness and improve bowel function. She insists that you drink in a horizontal position for better drainage. Add a teaspoon of baking soda to a glass a couple of times a week to enhance the detox effect.

3. Morning wash

The lower the temperature of the water, the longer the face will remain fresh. Just don’t rub it with ice! It dries out the skin and damages blood vessels. It is better to irrigate the face with a thermal spray from the refrigerator. Perfectly tones the skin and carbonated mineral water with ice – a favorite technique of top model Kate Moss.

4. Exfoliating lotion

Clinique experts are sure that it is necessary to remove dead cells from the skin twice a day. To do this, the brand has four exfoliating lotions for different skin types. Their effect turned out to be so obvious that now peeling lotions are included in the assortment of many well-known brands.

5. Steam bath

Steam is the main enemy of toxins and an ally of a good mood. If you can’t get to the bathhouse, just hold your face over the steam for 10 minutes. Just don’t lean too low. You will be surprised how much the skin condition improves. Especially if you add a handful of chamomile to the water and drop your favorite essential oil. And on the face, pre-apply a clay-based mask. After steaming, rinse it off with cool water. This technique is not suitable for those who have thin skin and are prone to redness.

6. Dietary supplements

Preparations with vitamins, antioxidants, extracts of algae and active plants will help enhance the elimination of toxins and recharge your batteries. They must be taken continuously for 1-2 months. They are best absorbed with food. Do not drink dietary supplements with caffeinated drinks (coffee, tea, cola): it makes it difficult to digest them.

6. Vitamin C

Champion for instant skin revitalization and battery recharge. Dermatologist Nicholas Perricone recommends taking 1-2 grams every morning. And doctor Michel Pfulg (Michel Pfulg) – be sure to add capsules of omega-3 fatty acids to it. Together with vitamin C, they form a stable antioxidant complex. And of course, use products with the active form of vitamin C for at least two months a year.

7. Cardio training

During physical activity, blood circulation increases, metabolism increases, endorphins are released, which contribute to a good mood, sparkle in the eyes and tone. For those who are categorically unsportsmanlike, it remains just to walk faster. And you will have time everywhere, and look good!

8. Stop smoking

The nicotine and tar in cigarette smoke give the skin a yellowish earthy hue. Hypoxia (lack of oxygen) slows down metabolism. Not to mention premature wrinkles, dryness, loss of tone and the risk of oncology. There are enough arguments to fight smoking.

9. Droppers and injections

Laennec, kurasen – these Japanese names have entered the lexicon of those who, with the help of the first drug, restore strength, health and heal damage to internal organs. And microinjections of the second remove wrinkles and improve complexion. In our country, only the RHANA clinic presents genuine products.

10. Dope drink

Add cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and, if desired, honey to green tea. This drink improves tone, improves blood circulation, strengthens the immune system, protects the skin and instantly revitalizes the complexion.

11. Shiatsu massage

By pressing with your fingertips on the points near the bridge of the nose, temples, wings of the nose, along the eyebrow, under the cheekbones and near the earlobes, you will improve the outflow of lymph, remove puffiness and earthiness of the skin, recharge your batteries and find a positive attitude.

12. Scrub

Scrubs are especially good for oily and combination skin types. Horn cells, impurities, make-up residues get stuck in excess fat, causing inflammation. Scrub granules clean off the lifeless layer, free pores, polish the surface of the face and indirectly prevent early aging.

13. Vegetable broth

David Servan-Schreiber, physician and author of Anti-Cancer, considers a green vegetable decoction (broccoli, squash, celery, and leek) to be the best detox remedy. Nutritionist Madeleine Gesta agrees with him. True, red vegetables are added to her recipe – peppers, tomatoes and carrots. A nutritionist calls his broth “skin glow soup.” And offers to drink it in the evening, before or instead of dinner. The decoction should not be salted.

14. Detox remedies

Cosmetics manufacturers have realized that it is easier to stop the production of toxins and improve their removal from the skin than to deal with the consequences of their harmful effects. Each brand has its own take on skin detox. Recently, detox masks and night creams with a similar effect have been popular.

15. Big purge

Once or twice a week, arrange a “spring cleaning” of the face. Apply a detoxifying serum followed by a detox mask. After 20 minutes, irrigate the skin with thermal spray and blot with a tissue. Now reapply the serum and a generous layer of cream. By the way, if you apply a detox or just a moisturizing mask before a shower, then the water will not dry your skin.

16. Contrast treatments

On the day when everything goes awry and there is no strength left, give yourself and your skin a “shake”. Place two bowls next to the sofa – with hot and ice water. Drop in the first citrus essential oil or throw in some lemon zest. And in the second – mint or lavender elixir (you can use decoctions of these herbs). Soak a towel in hot water, wring it out and apply it to your face for 20 seconds, patting yourself with your palms. Then do the same with ice water. After two or three contrast sets, the skin will tighten and smooth out. The psychological effect will be akin to a feeling of relief.

17. Sex

It is believed that the night of love is the best alternative to cosmetics and tranquilizers. But few people know that morning sex is more beneficial for health and appearance than evening or night sex. Waking up, our body reacts more sharply, the metabolism is activated, endorphins are produced more actively. You will meet the day with shining eyes and skin and stay in a great mood until the evening!
