Top 5 reasons for a woman to take care of her appearance after 60 years - examples of successful and beautiful ladies
Why do I need all this torment - you can’t return your youth... Are such sabotaging thoughts creeping in? Drive them away!
And that's why:
- With the onset of menopause, the condition of the skin will stabilize in the future. Minimal exposure to hormones makes our skin predictable.
- The negligible production of natural collagen does not contribute to the smoothness and firmness of the skin. You have to deal with sagging and sagging.
- During this period, your skin type may change, especially often from oily to dry. This is due to changes in the functioning of the sebaceous glands.
- Excess melanin causes hyperpigmentation.
- Facial care after 60 years requires attention to the nuances of aging skin. Often these are manifestations of swelling, hypersensitivity or peeling.
Of course, it is not easy to maintain a positive attitude and belief in your attractiveness. Especially if there are no inspiring examples nearby. But just looking at successful and beautiful women at an elegant age, you also want to pick up a jar of cream. And lipstick. And be well-groomed every minute of your life.
One of my friends calls herself a retro style girl . No, she doesn’t give the impression of a grandmother breaking into a teenager’s disco. At 62 years old, she looks the part, but at the same time she is very attractive and feminine.
When asked how she manages to keep herself together and where she gets so much motivation to take care of herself, she replies: “At 65, Christie Brinkley smiles at me from the covers of magazines. They say she made a deal with the devil. And I concluded - I won’t say with whom!”
An excellent example is one of the Bond girls - 68-year-old Jane Seymour . This ageless woman makes the most of life, but knows how to limit herself in time. “If I want pasta now, I eat pasta with pleasure. But only half the portion!” But this is only half - no, not a portion, but Jane's secret. The actress is also proud of her good genes and does not have bad habits, arranges fasting days, drinks a lot of water - and, while caring for her face, remembers about her décolleté, neck and hands.
And the secret of attractiveness, according to 70-year-old Meryl Streep , is understanding and accepting your strengths and weaknesses. “Our life is reflected in wrinkles - joys, difficulties that made us wiser, moments of happiness. That’s why I love my wrinkles.” Since her youth, the actress’s skin has been dry and prone to flaking. Therefore, moisturizing and nourishing creams do not leave her cosmetic bag. Among her beauty secrets, she reveals her love for facial massage, increased attention to the skin around the eyes and maintaining the shape of the face during visits to a cosmetologist.
In addition to their beauty secrets, all these women still radiate vital energy thanks to their fulfillment.
And it's never too late to become successful. We have already talked about women who “turned off age”
Cream by age: what should you know when choosing a cream?
Many girls are faced with the need to regularly take care of their skin at a very young age (12-14 years old).
And from now on, their immersion into the world of cosmetology begins, which is often full of contradictions. However, everyone knows very well that it is impossible to do without such a basic skin care product as cream. Today on store shelves you can find a huge number of different creams: for problematic and dry skin, moisturizing, nourishing, tightening and many others. This choice makes my eyes wide open! Therefore, it is important to know which cream is suitable for your skin and matches your age.
Let's figure out what you need to know to choose the right cream according to your age and skin needs.
Up to 30 years old
At this young age, the skin usually requires the use of cream to moisturize and protect against external factors. Even oily and combination skin needs hydration, the only difference is in the components of the cream that will perform this function.
In creams for dry skin, the ingredients are more nourishing , and for oily skin , they are aimed at mattifying and lightly moisturizing , without the effect of a greasy film.
Don't neglect hydration! Lack of moisture reduces the skin's natural protection, and it ages faster. However, do not be tempted by creams marked 30+! If you are still a year or two away from this date, then choose a cream according to your age. Do not hurry.
In the PURE LINE product collection for young skin, the Ideal Skin line was created.
Japanese facial massage is the key to beauty after 60 years
The youthfulness of oriental women at a very advanced age evokes admiration, envy, respect... No one is indifferent. Along with heredity, eating habits, lifestyle and ecology, the traditional secret of the unfading youth of these women is Japanese facial massage .
Thanks to the good lymphatic drainage effect, stabilization of blood flow and activation of collagen production, noticeable results can be achieved within two months of procedures.
In general, such a massage can be an excellent alternative to beauty injections after 60 years .
Indications for Japanese facial massage using the Asahi method:
- Deep age wrinkles in the forehead and around the eyes.
- An emerging or already formed double chin.
- Unhealthy complexion, excessive pallor.
- Swelling.
- Loose skin.
- Maintaining the tone of aging skin.
The Japanese massage technique is considered universal and suitable for any type of face, however there are contraindications and precautions:
- Diseases of the lymphatic system.
- Colds and ARVI.
- Inflammations and open wounds on the face.
- Thinning subcutaneous fat layer.
- Infectious skin diseases.
- In case of rosacea, the use of scrubs and peels is excluded, the oil base must contain a venotonic component, and the affected areas are not massaged. Silicon is first included in the diet.
If the procedure suits you, then do not miss the opportunity to saturate your skin with microelements and maintain its elasticity.
Massage should not bring discomfort. Pain syndrome is mistakenly considered to be a confirmation of the effectiveness of the procedure. This is wrong. A slight headache or dizziness is acceptable due to the flow of blood to the head area.
Japanese massage has a cumulative effect, so you should not interrupt the course due to the lack of noticeable changes in the first days.
Natural lymph flow is resumed gradually.

Home care for face and neck skin for women over 60: natural remedies rule!
Professional care comes naturally. But you also need to pamper your skin with home treatments. Especially if there is a proven recipe using improvised means.
We begin facial skin care after 60 years , as before - with the usual cleansing, then we will do peeling.
This can be a gentle exfoliating scrub prepared at home:
- Oatmeal-honey - a mixture of rolled oatmeal flour and runny honey.
- Manno-fruit - a mixture of 20 g of chopped fruit pulp (any) and 15 g of semolina.
Choose the composition that suits you personally. Individual intolerance to honey, fruit acids or other components is a contraindication for the use of such mixtures. This rule applies to any home cosmetics.
After peeling, use a toner and move on to the mask stage.
Facial care after 60 years requires saturating the skin with fatty acids from oils for its smoothness and softness.
We suggest you make an oil mask weekly to improve facial tone and strengthen blood vessels:
- Heat 1 teaspoon each of jojoba oil and wheat oil in a water bath. Add 1 tablespoon of cocoa and 1 ampoule of vitamin B12 to the mixture. Apply the mask to your face for half an hour, then wash off with warm water.
And to maintain facial contours and accelerate cellular restoration, do a course of 10 lifting mask procedures at home:
- To do this, pour a couple of teaspoons of spirulina into green tea (hot). In a separate container, pour a tablespoon of gelatin with hot water. After it is completely dissolved, mix with seaweed and a tablespoon of sour cream. Apply the finished mask for 15 minutes, then soften with hot water and carefully remove from the face.
The curd and citrus mask provides a whitening and anti-inflammatory effect:
- Mix 3 tablespoons of cottage cheese, a teaspoon of honey and a couple of drops of orange oil and apply for 15 minutes.
Delicate care for the area around the eyes can be done frequently, even every other day:
- A mixture of chopped cucumber, parsley and 1 teaspoon of natural yogurt is applied for 20 minutes and then removed with a cotton pad.
It is best to complete the procedures with self-massage techniques followed by application of cream.
Fruit peeling mask
After peeling, the face will brighten and dead skin cells will be removed.
Ingredients:
- strawberries - 10 gr.
- pineapple - 10 gr.
- oat flour - 5 gr.
Grind the fruit pulp and add flour, mix everything. Apply the mask to a clean, steamed face with massaging movements. Keep the mask on for 20 minutes. Then remove with a cotton pad soaked in warm chamomile decoction. Do this peeling once every 2 weeks.
Salon procedures for women aged 60+
After 60 years, a woman’s beauty largely depends on professional care.
Optimal treatments for maintaining mature skin:
- Chemical peeling to improve and even out complexion, especially in cases of pigmentation and scars.
- Hylauron or Botox injections to smooth out wrinkles.
- Face massage.
- Facial reinforcement is the introduction of threads under the skin to tighten the face. Not the most pleasant thing in the world, but it will noticeably tighten up sunken cheeks, a blurred oval face and a sagging chin.
- Mesotherapy – smoothing the face by injecting vitamin cocktails under the skin.
- Diamond microdermabrasion improves the appearance of the skin by cleansing its upper layers.
- Laser resurfacing – tightens the skin, eliminates wrinkles, evens out the complexion.
Before signing up for procedures, first go for a diagnostic consultation . A cosmetologist will assess the situation and select the ideal treatment based on your time and financial capabilities. Yes, these procedures are not cheap. Did you know?
In conclusion, we would like to remind you that the vigor of spirit and body of women of an elegant age is achieved not only with jars and injections. In previous issues of our beauty calendar, we talked about the benefits of yoga and other activities, the principles of nutrition, and even the influence of the environment on our appearance. Don't forget these secrets!
And be in love with your age, you are beautiful in it!
Professional cosmetology
To tone mature skin, cosmetologists offer procedures such as:
- Photorejuvenation is a method of treating and healing the skin using light rays. During the procedure, the production of your own collagen is stimulated. The skin becomes smoother, more elastic, pores become narrower, scars are reduced, and fine wrinkles are smoothed out. Prevents skin aging and has a rejuvenating effect;
- laser resurfacing - laser treatment of the skin. The procedure also stimulates the production of collagen, allows you to smooth out fine wrinkles, smooth out deep ones, tones, improves the appearance and color of the skin. Among the disadvantages, it is worth noting the rather painful sensations during the procedure and the need for a recovery period (about a week);
- biorevitalization is the so-called “natural revitalization of the skin.” The procedure involves the injection of hyaluronic acid into the skin of the face and neck. It is part of the skin and provides its hydration and collagen release. Thus, with the help of biorevitalization, you can moisturize dry skin, get rid of fine wrinkles, and also solve the problem of enlarged pores.
The bravest resort to the services of plastic surgeons to tighten the skin of the face and eyelids.
Recommendations for implementation
You can master the ability to properly massage your face. There are instructional videos available for this. The best option is to do 1-2 sessions in a salon with a professional. Then you can do the massage yourself. This way, you can understand the technique of performing the procedure.
Just remember, Tsogan procedures are not a one-time session. Regularity is required to achieve the rejuvenation effect.
This massage is therapeutic in nature. To gradually get rid of wrinkles, just a little effort when pressing on the face is enough.
- Cleanse your face first. To do this, use your favorite cleanser and remove any remaining moisture with a paper napkin. It is good to do the procedure in the morning.
- Before starting, apply a special oil-based massage product. Can be replaced with moisturizer or cosmetic milk. But I still recommend buying an oil base.
- Carefully study the video instructions in this article. You must clearly know which areas of the face to press on.
- at the end, be sure to remove the remaining oil base (cream) with a napkin and wash with warm water.
