Natural lifestyle

One day I realized that I was tired. Tired of waking up with bags under my eyes. Tired of tormenting my hair in something other than a pasta factory explosion. I'm tired of carefully covering my face with foundation and with the same diligence to wash it every evening with a special product. I suddenly felt that I was surrounded by a wild amount of completely unnecessary things, habits and rituals. Which take up time and energy, while hiding my own self. Resolved: I am switching to a natural way of life. Maximum closeness to nature. Striving for naturalness, purity and free breathing.

I suddenly realized that I missed those school days, when I had not yet read women's magazines. Then I washed my hair with nettle shampoo in liter bottles and braided it into a regular tight braid. I washed my face with cold water, I did not use any special cream. I didn't wonder if I could afford a cake at nine o'clock in the evening or not. And she was happy! And now I'm tired. Tired of the rules that she surrounded herself with. I want to go back to simplicity and naturalness.

So a new life. No cheating. Everything that I have is my own, natural. Damn it, can't I be beautiful without makeup, Zero dress and Lancomé perfume?

The main thing is health. Stop covering up pimples and blemishes with concealer and foundation! We must fight them, not hide them. First, a visit to a beautician, but not for a mask or peeling, but for a consultation. We have personally selected the right skin care system for me. Pimples - do not touch, let them pass by themselves. The spots can be brightened with a special LIERAC product. Wash with tap water. At the same time, you will wake up quickly. I would like to use cosmetics for care - please, but do not make it a duty. The best beauty recipe is sleep. Get plenty of sleep: Sleep smoothes out wrinkles, removes bruises under the eyes and restores a healthy complexion.

Do not smear the cream, but drive it into the skin - at the same time, the skin receives a light massage. No foundation, not even under the eyes. I applied a day cream - and that's it. I don’t paint my lips, but if I really want to, I just level out the contour with a pencil and a little gloss in the color of the lips. Mascara is a drop just to add color. The rest is already a glance. Down with long styling! The main thing is hair health. I do not regret shampoo and balm on them. Sometimes a mask. Dry it with a hairdryer, spread it over the shoulders - the hairstyle is ready. No varnish. If they interfere, secure with a decorative hairpin. Best of all - loose ones. I paint my nails only with transparent varnish. Any length, I no longer strive for growing. The main thing is to be well-groomed.

Ring - maximum one. The bracelet is not. The clock is also not. I take off the earrings and chain. Beauty is healthy skin, not accessories. The clothes are muted colors. (Bright ones require makeup.) Beige, shades of brown, gray, black, burgundy. Elegant and quite in my style. The cut is simple, the cut is according to the figure, the length is up to the knee. Shoes are with medium heels, tights are expensive, legs are slender. The main thing is comfort. Soft sweater, comfortable pants. Fabrics are only natural.

For a healthy complexion, I stop overeating. I eat carrots and drink beet juice. Tea without sugar. With sliced apple or lemon. Fortunately, it is without sugar that I drink it all my life. I stop salt food heavily. Salt retains excess water in the body. I don't buy any more mayonnaise, ketchup and curry sauce. Spices are harmful to the skin in the same way as smoked sausage. But fried potatoes are another matter. Who said they get fat from her? Who cares - I'm not on a diet. I get simple, natural pleasures out of life.

Implementing your own principles is not always easy. Therefore, I easily retreat from them if I want to. After all, the main thing is to do with yourself only what is pleasant for you. Can't go to bed without washing? Brr, first foam, then lotion, then tonic, cream? I replace the entire procedure with cleansing wipes and go to bed with a free mind. Of course, I am not a naturalist in the full sense of the word, but the commandment "only naturalness" has become a style of life, turning its course in the most pleasant direction. And nothing cheers you up like the awareness of your duty to your body.

By the way, the natural way of life is a whole trend in Western countries. His main commandment is no chemistry, only naturalness. Companions of this trend do not use decorative cosmetics, but they are smeared in abundance with skin care products. Before buying products, they carefully read the list of ingredients on the packaging and know by heart all the names of harmful preservatives. They wear only natural, most comfortable fabrics. Naturalists love dietary supplements and foods with bifidobacteria. They do not remove vegetation on the body and often swim naked in water bodies, feeling their belonging to Nature.

The fashion for naturalism gradually came to dark Russia. And in some ways we are ahead of the West. For example, while the entire civilized world wore nylon and synthetics, Russian women wore thick cotton tights and good-quality brushed underwear. Firstly, the climate obliged, and secondly, the social order, which saw the collective farm woman as the ideal woman on the famous monument to Mukhina. Some domestic fashionistas even wore thin stockings, when they appeared on sale, over thick ones - so that it was beautiful and not cold.

Now the country is experiencing a real boom in naturalism. Bifidokefir, bioyogurt, all kinds of natural additives and yoghurt cultures that contribute to the health of the body. Advertising - our universal consultant - is trying to instill in us a new way of life, where everything is from nature. And judging by the volume of this advertisement, the product is in demand. The most "healthy" shoes without heels are in vogue. The linen is popular in cotton and linen. The style is sporty and comfortable. Even the absence of high-waisted trousers in stores is beneficial: trousers on the hips are more comfortable. And the widespread propaganda of a healthy lifestyle and movement, movement, movement reigns.

After two weeks, I felt that I was used to it. That the skin has become better, there is more free time, and there are fewer problems and doubts. And the strangest thing is that, having ceased to struggle daily with various defects in appearance and health, they left on their own. Of course, I have not yet reached the point of looking out for the presence of preservatives in the product, but I think that I will not, because pineapple from a jar will bring much more pleasure, and therefore harmony, than an absolutely natural radish. You can enjoy life every minute. And when I want to forbid myself to do something, I remember whether it was possible for me as a child. If so, then you can enjoy it today.
