There
are very few women who keep on looking beautiful even after crossing
the age of forty; but these women have cultivated their beauty slowly
and gradually through the years and they age gracefully and carry
their years as lightly and gaily as flowers in a buttonhole.
Eat plenty of fresh fruits and
vegetables and drink at least two cups of milk daily. With the onset
of age the hair becomes grey, but do not pull these grey hair out.
Every time you pull out a grey hair, you sow the seed for another few.
If you feel you must get rid of your grey hair then cut it close to
the root with scissors.
Every night apply home-made
moisturizing cream to your face and in the morning before you take
your bath, rub on your face and neck
Pay particular attention to the
corners of your mouth, areas around the eyes and neck which are more
prone to wrinkling than the other areas of the skin. Give yourself a
facial twice a week with a mask for dry skin to whip up circulation.
Go for long brisk walks and do not look back more than you can help at
your green years, for remember that every age has its own charm.
Moreover, after 40 years you have much more mature and dignified look
than before. Therefore keep your shoulders back, hold your head high
and above all, keep the corners of your mouth up.
