ANTI AGING SECRETS

By Adedayo Ajayi

 Sweet sixteen, 21 again, and forever young are some words people use to describe themselves which subconsciously relays the fact that they don’t wish to age. However, time is relentless and we age by the day. After an exhausting day’s activity filled with so much stress and tension, your forehead will bear wrinkles, you probably already know you need to relax and your body deserves to be pampered. Here are some routines to keep an ever radiant, youthful, glowing skin and keep them guessing your age.
1.      Take a warm bath: fill your tub with warm water and lavender. It helps in calming and relaxing the body system and also reduces body tension. It gives you a soothing relief as though the stress is sipping out into the water gradually.

2.      Exfoliation: we can’t overemphasize this. Exfoliation means removal of dead skin cells to reveal a fresh and tender one. Exfoliate the skin as regular as you can, use a scrub and moisturizer.


 1.      Moisturize: Hands are usually the first to show aging signs on the body and they are often the most neglected part of the body. To the hands, apply generous amount of hand cream to restore lost moisture. A moisturiser will go a long way to prevent aging signs on the hand.

2.      Use aromatic candles: Light aromatic candles in your bedroom: these candles provide soothing atmosphere and relaxes the senses.

3.      Use the “hot stone heart massage”: for this luxury you can afford, you need a smooth flat stone and follow the given instructions
a.      Boil water
b.      Add rose water or peppermint to the water
c.       Put stone in the boiling water till steam hot
d.      Lie down in a dark room
e.      Place stone in between the breasts
f.        Allow warmth to sip gradually from the stone to relax your mind and heart. This completely calms your nerves and prepares you for the following stressful day ahead.
