Why is this important? Because during the day, the pores become clogged (dust + polluting particles + sweat + sebum) while at night, the skin regenerates. So that it can detoxify, we must therefore strip it completely of the impurities that suffocate it.
I'll get started right away:full oil make-up removal
Fast and effective, it is suitable for all skin types (even sensitive and oily) because it dissolves impurities and the most stubborn make-up on the eyes (without stinging!). Another advantage:its fluid texture can be massaged with the fingers, and that, the epidermis loves it. Pour a little make-up remover oil between the hands, massage the entire face dry, emulsify with water, then rinse. Magic:it is eliminated in the form of milk and leaves the skin clean as ever.

Why is this important? We know the role of food on the skin. When you are deficient (or on a diet), you look bad. When there is a lack of antioxidants, the skin is less resistant to attacks (pollution, UV rays, stress, etc.), when there is a lack of fatty acids, it is dull and loses its suppleness, etc.
I get started right away:I "Japanese" my dishes
People on the island of Okinawa in Japan have the longest life expectancy in the world. In question ? Their food. So we steal from them what makes their longevity:3 times a week, fatty fish rich in omega 3 (tuna, salmon… raw or steamed rather than grilled); at each meal, raw vegetables and colorful vegetables loaded with antioxidants (peppers, tomatoes, etc.) steamed and still crunchy to preserve the vitamins; rice (or quinoa) which effectively replaces wheat (bulgur, buckwheat, spelled), loaded with gluten (=causes inflammation =accelerates aging). Finally, we put the brakes on the sugar that makes you age at high speed, to bite into more fresh fruit (outside or at the start of meals).
My allies:“beautiful skin” supplements

Why is this important? Beautiful skin is skin that breathes. The greater the influx of oxygen, the more your metabolism is boosted:circulation is stimulated, cells regenerate, eliminate toxins... Fresh complexion, long life guaranteed.
I'll start right away:I breathe in "yoga" mode
At home or at work, treat yourself to an oxygen break, morning and evening and before each meal (=avoid stuffing yourself), ideal for allowing the whole body to breathe, chasing away stress and parasitic thoughts. Sit comfortably, mouth closed, put your thumb on the right nostril, inhale for a long time through the left nostril until the lungs are full, block the breath for 2 seconds by closing both nostrils, then exhale slowly through the right nostril by pressing the left nostril. Re-inhale through the right nostril and also immediately (2 to 5 minutes).
