They buy expensive sunglasses
I am sure that every woman has amazingly shaped sunglasses that suit her very much. But are they right? In addition to facial wrinkles, women are at increased risk of such unpleasant diseases as cataracts and age-related macular degeneration (a disease of the central area of the retina that leads to decreased vision), especially if you do not protect your eyes from the sun.
Do not forget that sunglasses are needed not only in summer but also in winter! In the cold season, you also need to protect your eyes from the harmful rays of the sun. Therefore, the points should be:
1. Enough volume: not below the contour of the eyebrows to hide the eyes as much as possible.
2. The lens material must be of high quality in order to provide an ideal barrier to ultraviolet rays. They can be made of polycarbonate (the most effective material), optical resin CR39 or mineral. The main thing is that the lenses comply with European standards.
3. With reliable lenses. Lenses exist in different classes, which is determined by the amount of light reaching the retina. On a scale of zero to four, you need to choose the most reliable option for you. 1 - not enough, 2 - not bad, 3 - I recommend to most of my friends, and 4 - can be used for children from six months old, as well as for mountain sports.
They buy a good fridge
Can you imagine life without a refrigerator? Unlikely! Do you know that this household appliance is vital?
Indeed, with age, our immune system becomes weaker, so it is very important to help the body protect itself. Be serious about what you eat, do not let spoiled foods lie next to fresh ones. Most argue that microbes cannot tolerate cold, but this is not so! The longer bacteria live at low temperatures, the better they multiply, so it is very important to wash the refrigerator at least twice a month. Use a sponge with white vinegar for this.

They eat garlic
The most famous and spicy of French ingredients is garlic, which is a great addition to meat, salad, soup and even pasta.
Being rich in antioxidants, garlic perfectly fights the effects of aging and acts as a shield against free radicals.
Fresh garlic helps fight cardiovascular disease and provides protection against stomach and intestinal cancer. Garlic is the prevention of breast cancer and prostate cancer.
Now you will talk about the smell of garlic, but there are ways to deal with it! Do not run to brush your teeth after eating, chew a coffee bean, parsley or fresh mint, and then the smell of garlic will disappear. Another effective method: tell your friends about this article, and let them eat garlic with you.
They care for the skin of the neckline
Neckline is one of those parts of your body that betray age. In this area, the lack of sebaceous glands, which protect the skin from drying out. Therefore, it is in this place that the skin is very delicate and fragile. Every day, you should take time to ritual to care for your breast skin to prevent premature aging.
The ritual of care consists of three stages:
1. Moisturize the skin every day with massage movements for at least five minutes;
2. Once a week to do scrubbing with small grains, so as not to damage the skin;
3. Protect the skin in the decollete using sunscreens, especially in spring and summer.
And finally, do not apply perfume on the skin of the neck and décolleté, it is better to spray on clothing. The alcohol contained in perfumes dries the skin.
They understand that they eat for dinner.
And not in front of the TV, please. Sitting in front of the screen, you are distracted and do not notice how you eat your portion faster, this happens automatically. You are in a hurry and do not catch the moment when you are full, the body does not have time to transmit a signal that it is full, and you go for an additional portion. Have you noticed?
Take your time while eating, stretch out dinner and enjoy it, let it be a ritual.
They love water
To be in good shape, to prevent osteoporosis, diseases of the bones and back, do not forget about sports, at least 2 times a week, take time to train. Water training is what you need!
In the pool, your heart beats more slowly and your workouts become more difficult, but because the body is immersed in water, it seems that you are making less effort, although the muscles work hard.
As a result, this form of exercise yields a tremendous result, where in an hour you burn more calories than in 3 hours on a treadmill.
Their pillows are expensive and of high quality.
When was the last time you changed your pillow? Do not be surprised at this question, but if you suffer from neck pain, you should buy them in the orthopedic department, of good quality and change every few years.
It is not easy to choose a pillow, it should correspond to your sleep habits, be voluminous enough and keep the cervical vertebrae completely at ease. For those who prefer to sleep on their backs, it is worth choosing a hard pillow.
If you sleep poorly, pay attention to how your bed is. In Feng Shui, the headboard should be against the wall, but not opposite the doorway. Also try to remove the gadgets away from the bed: the emission of electromagnetic waves will only worsen your sleep.

They are not angry with themselves
Do you often self-flagellate? Losing failures in your head, coming up with what you had to say and do? Do not do this. Here are three main tips to stop you guilty.
1. No one is perfect. Absolutely nobody! Accept it and understand once and for all. A mistake does not make you worse or better. Just by understanding this, you will take a big step towards improving your life.
2. The world is not black or white. And not even gray. A color analogy is needed to convince you that everyone has a dark side.
3. Once upon a time, we were told in childhood what is good and what is bad. But doesn’t it seem sacred to you to follow these categories - only complicate your life?
The pursuit of excellence will surely end in failure. Do not forget that each has its own ideals. If you want to live longer, then you need to start living!
