7 Rejuvenation Habits Adopted by Japanese Women

Many people believe that women from the ‘land of the rising sun’ hide the secret of eternal youth. Jokes aside, some scientific research shows that fighting aging is always difficult, regardless of ethical origin.

In the case of Japanese women, the characteristic that stands out the most is constant care for their skin and health, as we will detail in this post.

The Japanese beauty tips are easy to adopt, they are suitable for any skin type and are related to the lifestyle in general. Check this post from awesome.club🇧🇷

Japanese women take care of themselves as if in some kind of ritual, sparing neither time nor money for this. At the age of 20, young women adopt every day certain procedures (which we will detail below) designed to preserve the beauty of the face and body for as long as possible. We definitely have something to learn from them.

Instead of dedicating an hour to extra tasks, remember to take care of yourself, applying a mask accompanied by relaxing music.

In ancient times, in Japan, people used to bathe in hot springs, called onsen. These procedures saturate the body with mineral substances, improve blood circulation and sleep. Nowadays, of course, not everyone has the opportunity to relax in a natural spring, but this is not absolutely necessary.

Modern Japanese women advise at least once a week to organize a whole day for bathing and that day should follow the following steps:

Be free for at least half a day so that no one bothers you or bothers you with questions (turn off the phone, send your family to the movies or something similar). Relax your whole body in the hot water. Thoroughly wipe the skin with a sponge and a scrub (you can prepare it yourself at home, on the Internet you will find a lot of tips on how to do this). Immerse yourself in the warm water for a long time, feeling how your muscles relax. After bathing, apply some oil to the skin.

This very simple procedure, performed regularly, will improve lymphatic flow, relieve muscle spasms and reduce stress levels.

One of the best beauticians in Japan, Chizu Saeki, advises you to do a special massage yourself (if you want to know the instructions in more detail, see the book The Japanese Skincare Revolution🇧🇷 If you follow the method every day, your skin will become more elastic and dense, which means saying goodbye to wrinkles or, at least, delaying their appearance.

Repeat these exercises 3 times, with light movements:

Place your fingers on the 2 sides of your lips. Massage the skin as if you were playing the piano, gently touching it with your fingers. Firmly press the skin in the center of the forehead and, after holding for 3 seconds, move your hand towards the temple. With a slight movement of the hand, slightly stretch the skin on the forehead, as if you want to stretch out the wrinkles, and with the other, hold the temple. Lift the forehead muscles, using both hands alternately. Lightly press the area around the lips. With the ring and middle fingers go through this area. Movements must be from bottom to top. Lightly press the area behind the ears, making circular movements. With your fingertips, lightly press into the crevices under your eyebrows. Run your middle finger along the eye to the inner corner.

Make sure you clean your face every night, and if you want to have beautiful Japanese skin, do it this way:

Warm the cleaner by rubbing your hands together. Apply it on the face, on the cheeks, forehead, nose and chin, using light strokes. Spread the product from the chin to the ears, then from the nose to the cheeks and ears, and from the eyes and nose to the temples. Apply the substance using your fingertips from the tip of your nose to your eyebrows. Spread the product on the forehead evenly from right to left. Then, with light movements, pass it between the eyebrows to the tip of the nose and around the nostrils. Complete the procedure with a massage from the nose to the ears.

All movements must be done without pressure. Hands should glide over the skin. Repeat 3 times (it is enough to apply the cream only once).

If you’re used to putting on makeup every day, go at least one day a week without doing it, so that your skin can rest from cosmetics. Only skin cleansing and application of a moisturizer are allowed on that day. Observe your skin and assess the condition of your face. A ‘relaxing day’ will only benefit you.

Beauty comes from the inside out. To feel good and look splendid, adopt the basic principles of the Japanese food system:

1.5 liters of water a day at least. No snacks. Eat on a schedule. Take vitamins (after consulting a doctor). Give preference to seafood and vegetables (sweets and pies are almost not present in Japanese beauty diets). Drink green tea (this substance, by the way, is also part of most cosmetic products).

The tradition of whitening the face with the help of a mixture of rice flour and milk is, of course, a custom of the past, but the ideals of beauty remain intact: Japanese women still strive to make their skin look like porcelain. the absence of the sun plays an important role in this difficult task. More specifically, they apply all kinds of creams and methods to protect themselves as best as possible from exposure to the sun’s rays.

Also recommend the use of products with the highest degree of protection, as ultraviolet rays cause serious damage to beauty. And, seeing how beautiful Japanese women are, we can safely say that this method works.

We are convinced that all women in the world are beautiful in their own way and each country has much to teach others. Perhaps you too have your own beauty recipes that work. Share with us in the comments.
