On November 1, one of the most beautiful actresses celebrated her birthday. How does Aishwarya Rai manage to look so young?

1. Discipline.In her student years, while studying to be an architect, Aishwarya Rai worked as a model. It was thanks to this that in 1994 she was invited to take part in the competition. Miss India. However, the victory in him, as the star assures, was a complete surprise to her. But her modeling past taught her to strict discipline in everything that concerns her own appearance: never go to bed without washing off the makeup, moisturize the skin every day, use a scrub or peeling every 7-10 days ... All this, in the opinion of Aishwarya Rai, simple and affordable ways to preserve youthfulness and beauty of the skin. Everyone knows about them, but not everyone follows these rules.

2. Proper nutrition. Aishwarya is a vegetarian. Only occasionally can she afford a little fish and curry. She eats only healthy food, does not smoke, practically does not drink alcohol, making an exception only for good French wine. The maximum that an actress allows herself at a social event is a glass and a half of dry wine.

3. Correct daily routine and healthy sleep.Aishwarya calls her main beauty secret a good sleep and believes that chronic lack of sleep is the easiest way to get wrinkles around the eyes, "bags" and bruises, which immediately add several years even to young girls. And after thirty years, in the eyes of the star, the minimum eight hours of beauty sleep should become a mandatory rule for every woman who wants to look good.

4. Diet and Fitness. Like many Indian women, being reed in early adolescence and gaining weight after having children, Aishwarya tends to be overweight. However, the star of Indian cinema herself does not make a tragedy out of this, she even jokes: "We do not like too thin people, and this thought always relaxes me, especially at home when we have dinner."

However, as an actress, she willy-nilly has to monitor her diet and figure. And when, six months after the birth of her daughter, it became clear that the thirty-eight-year-old star, who had recovered more than two and a half dozen kilograms during pregnancy and continued to feed her daughter, was not losing weight in any way - this jeopardized her career. India, closely following the fate of its national heroine, has split into two camps.

Some argued that the disgracefully overweight actress with her double chin disgraces Bollywood and even arranged pickets against her appearing at any film festivals. Others, on the contrary, expressed their approval in every possible way that the actress does not follow the lead of fashion and primarily thinks about her daughter's health. But, despite the fact that supporters promised her the status of a style icon for obese women, offers to act in films became less and less.

It is not known how the story would have ended, but Aishwarya finally began to lose weight and met her thirty-ninth birthday almost in the same shape. How she did it, the Bollywood star does not specify, but it is known that it was not without a tough diet with the rejection of flour and sweet and daily exercises with a fitness trainer.

5. Sufficient amount of water. Every morning, the actress starts with a glass of pure water with lemon juice - this rule, which many models follow, she has not changed since her modeling youth. And nutritionists approve of this idea: it helps the body wake up faster and speeds up the metabolism that slows down overnight. Another mandatory rule of Aishwarya Rai is to drink eight to ten glasses of clean water daily.

6. Sun protection. Aishwarya never goes outside without applying sunscreen to her face, neck, hands and other exposed skin. This allows her to do without bleaching and at the same time maintain fair skin, especially appreciated in India. The actress who is one of the messengers of beauty L'Oreal Paris, calls herself a fan of cleansers, and her favorite face cream is Derma genesis (of course, from L'Oreal Paris).

7. Natural hair masks. The actress has mixed skin, prone to fat content in the T-zone, so she is very neat with the oils and oil masks so beloved by her compatriots: many oils clog her pores. “This is more of a tradition than a necessity,” says Aishwarya Rai of oil-based natural skin cosmetics. As a child, my mother often made various masks for herself and for her, and then the girl "felt like a real princess." But now the star prefers “ready-made” cosmetics for face care. Hair is another matter. Aishwarya loves to apply oils on them, especially coconut and palm oils - before shampooing or rub oil into the hair roots before going to bed.

She applies a cucumber mask to relieve irritation; clay to exfoliate dead skin; and dairy products - in order to moisturize the skin and improve skin nutrition.

Every woman wants to be beautiful and attractive, and strive to preserve this beauty as long as possible. In our article, we will reveal to you, our dear readers, a few secrets of Hollywood stars. Indeed, few people would argue that they are trying to be equal to them, in what they wear, how they lose weight, and how they take care of their skin.

Actresses, singers, famous TV presenters - all of them are in the light of powerful spotlights, and the paparazzi and fans literally follow on their heels. And of course, to live up to their star status, they have to wear a lot of makeup on their face.

To save the skin of the face from premature aging, many believe that the stars regularly visit expensive salons, where professionals return a radiant look to their face for fabulous money. But we hasten to assure you that not all stars resort to the help of salons. After all, most of them mainly use folk remedies, which were also used by our grandmothers, and thanks to them they preserve their youth and beauty.

Every celebrity has his own little secrets of personal care. Jennifer Aniston uses a variety of personal scrubs and face masks. And Sandra Bullock admits that she daily wipes her face with slices of green apple, because the vitamins contained in the apple wonderfully tone and refresh the skin. So, let's take a closer look at the secrets of Hollywood stars, which you can freely use at home.

Hollywood peeling: a wonderful transformation of your skin

The procedure used by Hollywood stars at home will miraculously transform your skin, and it will become smooth and elastic. Suitable for oily to combination skin.

This procedure is absolutely painless and quite easy to use. You can buy the ingredients for this peel at your regular pharmacy. Before starting the procedure, you need to prepare your face for it. Wash your face thoroughly and degrease your skin. Before the procedure, the face must be dry and clean.

As we have already noted, you can buy the ingredients for such a peeling at the pharmacy. To do this, you will need: calcium chloride 5-10% (calcium chloride). Open the ampoule carefully, take a cotton pad and moisten it with the solution. Then massage onto your face. Let the solution completely absorb, and repeat this procedure 5-8 times, depending on the percentage solution (the lower the percentage, the more often the procedure should be repeated).

During the procedure, you will feel a slight tingling sensation - this is normal. If there is a burning sensation, immediately wash off the solution with warm water and soap. As soon as you finish applying the last layer, and it dries, lightly moisten your fingers with water and lather them with a gentle soap (preferably baby). Massage the soap into your face. Small "soap pellets" will begin to form under your fingers.

This procedure works as follows - the soap begins to interact with calcium chloride, during which potassium and sodium chloride is formed, as well as undissolved calcium salt, which turns into pellets and captures keratinized particles of the upper layer of the skin. Continue lathering your face and rubbing the soap over your face until the pellets stop forming. Then wash your face thoroughly with warm water.

Do not be alarmed if after the procedure your skin turns pinkish or slightly reddish - this is quite normal. Therefore, we do not recommend doing it before going out - it is advisable to do it the day before. Also, it should be noted that after this procedure, the skin becomes dehydrated, so apply a moisturizing and nourishing mask to your face.

Correction of nails with gel in the salon

A beautiful manicure is as much an integral part of the image of a modern stylish woman as an elegant outfit, quality shoes and a fashionable hairstyle. Unfortunately, not every girl can boast of strong nails, especially since the unfavorable environmental situation and poor nutrition do not have the best effect on their condition.

To the aid of those who want to have long beautiful nails come the technologies of their extension, among which gel correction has recently been the most popular, since as a result of such a procedure, strong, flexible, elastic and elastic nails that have a magnificent appearance are obtained.

There are two options for gel correction (extension) of nails: extension on forms and on tips:

• Extension on forms is carried out if the nails protrude a few millimeters above the tip of the finger and under them you can substitute a shape specially selected for the size of a particular nail - a special device made of paper or Teflon. After the natural nail is "lengthened" by the shape, a primer is applied on top, and after it dries, a gel is applied, which should cover both the natural nail and part of the shape to mark the length of the future extended nail. After the gel has dried, a construction layer is applied, which is designed to form a “new” nail plate and make the transition from natural to artificial nail more invisible, and the nail plate even more stable. After completing the work, the form is removed, and the nail is covered with a finish gel.
• For those who have very fragile, thin nails, extension on tips is suitable, which are plastic plates of various shapes, the contact part of which is selected according to the shape of natural nails. When correcting nails with tips, after processing the natural nail plate, the tips are glued to it, trimmed to give the required shape, and after the primer has dried, layers of gel are applied successively one after the other, each drying in a UV lamp.

Although some girls have learned to do nail correction on their own, the result of “home” extension cannot be compared with the work of real masters who use professional equipment and materials. However, even going to the salon does not guarantee that you will not be dealing with a real professional who will give you an excellent manicure.

Therefore, the question of how to choose a salon (master) for this remains very relevant. In order not to be mistaken, first of all, listen to the recommendations of your friends, and it is better to keep them company when they go to their master to do the correction of regrown gel nails. If this option does not suit you and you have no one to give advice, then go to the salon and talk with the master to get an impression of him and find out what materials he uses in his work. Also, take a look at the workplace: this can say a lot about a person's tidiness, and ask for a portfolio to see their best work.

Norma Jean Morteson, known all over the world under the name Marilyn Monroe, is a talented actress and an amazing woman, whose charm has succumbed to both thousands of famous and influential men and ordinary fans.

Blond hair falling on the shoulders in silk waves, burning eyes, a dazzling smile, bright lipstick, sophisticated style - this is the image that is most often remembered, is still depicted on posters, shown on television, and even created sculptures.

Marilyn Monroe is a woman who made herself. Behind her attractiveness and boundless charm is a huge, everyday and painstaking work on herself. Thinking in detail about every, even the smallest detail of her unique image, which still inspires artists, directors, photographers, sculptors, Monroe, step by step, went to bring this image to life. Adhering to the rule that “gentlemen prefer blondes, she dyed her brown hair platinum, which made her dark eyes more expressive.

Like every woman, Monroe had many beauty secrets that she skillfully used. First of all, the actress did not like being under the sun, preferring the delicate porcelain skin to the bronze tan. She carefully looked after her face and body. One of Monroe's favorites was olive oil, which has emollient and nourishing properties. She also often washed her face with cold water, thereby toning it. Ice baths followed by a nourishing body cream were also included in the list of must-have beauty treatments.

Makeup, which still inspires makeup artists and show business stars, Monroe also thought out on her own. The actress devoted a lot of time to applying makeup, playing with shades of powder, blush and foundation, emphasizing the advantages of the face and hiding its flaws. Over the years, the perfected ability to handle a black pencil helped to achieve the "cat's eyes" effect - Monroe diligently deduced perfectly straight arrows along the line of eyelash growth, smoothly tending upward in the outer corner of the eye. Plump and attractive lips were also the result of well-applied makeup. When painting her lips, Monroe used several shades of lipstick, achieving volume.

The actress also paid special attention to her figure. It consisted of regular exercise, daily exercises, including exercises with dumbbells. Monroe also ate in a special way. Her breakfast consisted of a cup of hot milk and a couple of raw eggs tossed in it. For lunch, Marilyn ate a piece of fried meat and a few raw carrots, and in the evening she could not deny herself her favorite delicacy - fruit ice cream.

Perhaps all the secret tricks of the actress worked, or she simply possessed natural charm and femininity - who knows. However, it is impossible not to admit that this blonde beauty is still a muse for creators, an object of worship for fans and a role model for many women from all over the world.
