Whatisit about French women?
So really, what is it?
They drink wine every day.
Delicious, sure, but wine also has remarkable health and anti-aging benefits.
They don’t think of skin care as “pampering.”
“We know that a little bit of pampering isn’t just a luxury,” she says.
For them, beauty is an “art de vivre” and should give you pleasure, not pain.
Which is why Thomas posits spa treatments, like facials, shouldn’t be treated as a luxury.
They have sex.
An orgasm a day keeps the dermatologist away, right?
By no means exclusive to the French, sex should be a regular part of your skin care routine.
Because you never know what might happen."
They follow the “less is more” maxim when it comes to make up.
You know, the famous “done-but-not-done look.”
They eat well and actually enjoy food.
The French approach to food is fairly simple: Eat well.
They take time to enjoy food and sit down to family meals.
They eat the best quality they can get, and they don’t ruin mealtimes with endless snacking.
They find a skin care routine that works and stick to it.
Rather, it’s a ritual in figuring out what works best and sticking with it for life.
They take cold showers.
They recognize that skin care extends beyond the face.
Own your routine and your beauty, and others will fall in line.
They embrace wrinkles.
Do as the French and accept the signs that you’ve lived and laughed.
A wrinkle here or a dimple there?
“Instead of fighting the inevitability of aging, we’re going to embrace it,” says Thomas.
Therealsecret to French beauty?
Get on it, ma belle!
