Then, while talking, a story that rolls from their tiny mouths, among others, about the hard raising teenagers and the surrounding business career that has lived for 20 years. I was intrigued to count, meaning they are approaching the age of 40. Wow, curiosity was pushed. Had occurred, lest there is a special potion that they seem ageless. However, almost all Japanese women look younger, it seems there are other secrets that are worth exploring.
Obviously we do not have to live in Japan or the Japanese people so quick no wrinkles. We just need to "steal" the science of diet, lifestyle, or their skin care tips. And it turns out, this is the secret ...
Give your skin balanced diet
In his book, Japanese Woman Do not Get Old or Fat, Naomi Moriyama describes the country as a place where women aged 40 to look like in his 20s. "They are free to enjoy delicious food and the rate of obese people in Japan just three percent," he said.
Naomi describes their style diet is the key: a small plate of fish oil, soy, rice, vegetables, and fruits. "Foods made from rice is also believed to contribute to skin health. In fact, until there is a special word in Japanese that describes the skin soft and supple, the mocha-hada, or skin such as mochi, a type of rice flour cake chewy texture, smooth, and soft, "he continued.
Jessica Wu, MD, a dermatologist in Los Angeles from Taiwan who were raised by parents' native China, have similar traditions and the Japanese diet. He believes that soy foods including the best antiaging.
"As a child, I drink soy milk mother made fresh every day, and we more often eat tofu than meat and other dairy products. I am sure that soy can cure acne and minimizes skin dryness, "Jessica said.
The Japanese also argue, green tea helps slow the aging process. They consume antioxidant-rich drink this all the time, certainly much better than coffee, bottled fruit juice, or diet coke.
Look at their lifestyle is so healthy. The number of women smoking in Tokyo is only about 10 percent. They are also quite obedient to limit consumption of foods high sugar yield. He recalled, "While living in Los Angeles, I like orange slices for dessert, chocolate cake instead. Apparently, among the cousins, only I do not acne as a teenager. "
Based on the latest research, excessive sugar consumption can lead to acne infections and damage the collagen layer.
Apply sunscreen every day
If you ever find the Japanese tourists milling about, you will see Japanese women always use an umbrella when the weather is hot.
"They are very fanatic keep the skin from the sun to avoid black spots on the face," said Susan Taylor, MD, a dermatologist from Philadelphia. As an African-American, Susan intentionally give special attention to patients of color.
In principle, black spots can be experienced by all skin tones, unless they are careful to keep the skin. Apparently, women in Japan have done it earlier, ie since the age of 20.
When compared with Caucasian women, their skin does contain more melanin pigmentation that will be easily visible. However, when juxtaposed with the descendants of Malay or Latin, they have less melanin.
Melanin also functions as a natural shield from the sun. Japanese women's skin is more flammable than those with dark skin. "To prevent the appearance of blemishes, women there began to put on sunscreen to their babies from birth," said Yuko Hosnino, a skin specialist from Shiseido Tokyo.
The result, Japanese women not only avoid black spots when mature, but the wrinkles on the face of even fewer. Wrinkles that appear in their 40s and 50s actually caused due to the adverse effects of ultraviolet light exposure that has been going on since decades ago.
So, use sunscreen every day-not just when we were on the beach, so skin is not damaged and is always healthy.
Flatten the skin color
When we are routinely using sunscreen, the next step is to minimize the black spots are already attached to the face. Yoko Kisara, a beauty writer in Tokyo, suggest using a cream that slows the production of pigment-called whitening, brightening or tone corrector. Same function: bleach and flatten the skin color in certain parts.
If the difference in skin color looks very clear, Jessica Wu, MD, a dermatologist in Los Angeles from Taiwan, said the better you go to a dermatologist to ask for medicines containing hydroquinone or tretinoin (Retin-A) with a certain degree.
You also can undergo exfoliation treatment, by chemical drugs or therapies Intense Pulse Light (IPL) which uses a special light to improve skin tone.
Keep the skin moist
"Not many Japanese women aged over 40 who complain of their skin dry," said Hideko Hattori, a dermatologist in Tokyo. This happened partly thanks to the help of nature.
Moisture levels in some areas of Japan is quite high, so there are still middle-aged women in there who complain they face excess oil. You really can not change the climate, but you can imitate some of the habits, in order to free the skin from dryness and keep it moist.
Most Japanese people rarely use air conditioning or heating. In fact, when the summer many companies spend a policy of "cool biz", allowing employees to dress casually, so more comfortable when the air is hot. The result, their skin remains moist.
Japanese women are also very disciplined in the ritual of moisturizing the skin. "Many of them are willing to wear many different types of products whose function is similar. At least two of the three products are useful for moisturizing the skin. Meanwhile, most American women, actually prefer to rely on one type of cream it with the hopes of many skin problems can be resolved properly, "said Yoko.
For example, Ikuko Watanabe, a fashion stylist aged 50, wearing a cream moisturizer and toner that works moisturizes the skin, moisturizing serum, skin brightening serum, moisturizer and sunscreen at the same time. In fact, coupled with a moisturizing facial mask at least once a week. Well ... of course their skin so moist that way.
Massage face and neck area
In traditional Chinese and Japanese facial massage is part of skin care ritual. "My mother suggested, while young people do massage every night, after cleansing," said Jessica.
This activity is part of the tradition of acupuncture and acupressure East Asia which could be blood circulation, making skin more fresh and easy to absorb a variety of skin care products.
Interestingly, the location of facial massage to the point where botox is injected by the dermatologist. For example, between the eyebrows, the expression or smile lines, and in addition to the two eyes of the outside. "
He also believes, if we regularly massaging the face, the results can be immediately verified. "About 15 years ago, when I started doing practice botox and collagen injections, I offer this therapy to my mother who is 55. However, when he sat in the office and my hands began to react, I just realized it turns out he has no wrinkles at all, "he said, amazed.
