Chapter 4 Section 2 Anxiety Will Corrode Your Youth

I think cosmetics are not just something to put on the skin, but more to be something to put on the spirit.People who often use cosmetics will feel better, in fact, it should relieve women's mental pain from a deeper level. When I interviewed Hollywood actress Michel Oberon, she told me that she refused to worry because she knew that worry would destroy her main asset in the development of her film career- her beauty. She told me: "When I first started in the film industry, I was worried and scared. I had just returned from India and I had no acquaintances in London. I met several producers and none of them would hire me. What little savings I had was running out. For two weeks I lived on biscuits and water. Not only was I terrified, I was physically hungry and I said to myself 'maybe you So silly, maybe you'll never break into film. You have no experience, no acting. What else do you have but a pretty face'.

"I stood in front of the mirror and started to look at myself, only to realize that worry had started to ruin my appearance! With wrinkles around my eyes and a sad face, I said to myself 'You must stop worrying immediately, your only capital is looks, and worry will ruin it'." Nothing ages a woman faster and ruins her looks than worry.Worry can make us look bad, it can make us gnash our teeth, it can make us wrinkle our face, it can make us grimace all the time, it can make our hair gray and even fall out, it can also make you get freckles, sores and acne on your face . There was a period of time when the first wave of "natural cosmetics" was set off in Japan. Different from the current "natural", it mainly featured the use of more primitive raw materials to produce cosmetics, such as the use of so-called "traditional cosmetics" such as red beans and loofahs. "Wisdom" cosmetics make those young women who are extremely sensitive to fashion completely trapped in it and cannot extricate themselves.The basis of this kind of natural cosmetics is "never use any surfactants, preservatives, fragrances and other ingredients", and the use of these "cosmetics from large cosmetic manufacturers containing harmful substances to the skin is extremely dangerous to human skin", etc.This kind of extreme argument makes the women who are trapped in it stay away from the cosmetics of famous manufacturers, and even hold a negative attitude, and only pursue red beans and loofahs.

In this upsurge, there is a woman who has made great contributions to "natural cosmetics". When she was interviewed by various magazines, she made a surprising statement: "Except for pure natural cosmetics, everything else is terrible. , cannot be used!" But about a year later, she suddenly declared that she had "sensitive skin" and became enthusiastic about cosmetics developed by dermatologists, saying, "Even if you don't use natural cosmetics that contain preservatives, they are terrible and should not be used."After another two years or so, she turned to praise the so-called "no additives" cosmetics, and turned into a negative for the cosmetics developed by dermatologists: "It's just an illusion! Later, whenever I contacted her, she switched to a "favorite product", and became obsessed with the mail-order cosmetics of a second-tier brand whose name I only heard, and the reason for her choice was naturally different each time. , is really interesting.There is no doubt that she is the kind of "cosmetics information source" and "super fashion publishing center", but also a slightly immature fanatical cosmetics lover.

Wandering among all kinds of cosmetics and not being able to determine which one is suitable for her, this can happen to anyone, and there is nothing wrong with it, but her situation is a little sick, she is enthusiastic about various cosmetics and then becomes disillusioned one by one , so the skin can not always become smooth and beautiful.Despite trying all kinds of cosmetics, she didn't look beautiful at all, her face was always so dull, and she was always troubled by the pimples on her face. Later, this woman began to fall in love with "meditation cosmetics" following the fashion trend, but the complexion on her face still hadn't improved at all. She finally asked "do all cosmetics have no effect?" Even so, she I still haven't stopped trying and hesitating, and have used various "meditation cosmetics" successively.She attributed the lack of improvement to the cosmetics, but the bystanders clearly knew that it was not the cosmetics.Three years ago, she got married and became a full-time housewife. She listened to the recommendations of the housewives nearby, and tried to switch to the door-to-door cosmetics that are very popular among housewives. What is the result?It was unbelievable that her skin became smooth and beautiful all of a sudden.

"It's really hard to come across such a good cosmetic!" She called me excitedly.I asked her, "What's a good way?" She said, "All the pimples on the face disappeared, and the skin turned white..." I couldn't help but think: "Sure enough!" She has been worrying about her skin for about 10 years. The root cause is not because "I haven't met good cosmetics", but because of the uncomfortable mental pressure accumulated in her body repeatedly. The huge mental pressure will lead to The autonomic nervous system is out of balance, the blood circulation is not smooth, and the immune function of the skin is low or disordered.Her face was always gloomy, and pimples appeared on her face when she was a little unhappy, all of which were caused by inner mental pressure.So why is a nasty problem that has lasted for 10 years completely solved in an instant?I think everyone has already understood, that is marriage.The "lightning marriage" over the age of 35, not to mention the surprise of the people around her, she herself may not have expected such a thing the last time, right?

There are many similar examples.A woman with rough skin tried various cosmetics one after another, and was transferred to another department after a certain personnel change. Suddenly, it seemed as if all the toxins in her body were discharged, and her skin became smooth and clean; After breaking up with her long-term cohabiting boyfriend and re-moving, a woman looks radiant immediately, and finally bid farewell to the life of wandering in various cosmetics.Many people's skin changes after changing their daily life. But more importantly, in today's era, among the people called beauty fanatics, people like this type-point the cause of their misfortunes to irrelevant cosmetics, and aimlessly indulge in cosmetics. —Actually, there are many.These people often do not trust "mainstream" cosmetics, but rather believe in "tributary" cosmetics such as natural cosmetics and mail-order cosmetics. They are keen to find the so-called "value" from some second-tier cosmetics brands, so they "pursue better and more effective The consciousness of "the cosmetics" is stronger than the average person, so that they have been wandering in the morbid state of changing cosmetics frequently.

Some people may think that this is a "huge waste", but I think it is a good thing to rely on cosmetics to more or less rescue them who are trapped in the huge mental pressure of "darkness".In the case of the above lady, she probably even blamed "the cosmetics don't work at all" as the reason for "probably not getting married", and if that were the case, the attribution would not have led her to "I'm not a Good woman", "I lack the charm of women" and other types of inferiority complex.The reason why she was able to get married can be said to be precisely because she did not have such an inferiority complex.The many cosmetic products she tried repeatedly and hesitated among them, even if they did not cure her skin problems, at least relieved her mental inferiority complex, so it still had an effect, and it was not wasted at all.

Kaoru Saito, a well-known Japanese female psychologist, said it well: "I think cosmetics are not just something to apply on the skin, but more to be applied to the spirit. We often say that people will feel better after using cosmetics , In fact, it also alleviates the mental pain of women from a deeper level." Worry will corrode your youth and is the biggest nemesis of a woman's appearance. Having a good mood is the best natural cosmetics.If you don't want to prematurely wrinkle those extra-thin skin around your eyes, get out of the way in time!
