Four simple rules anyone can follow.
It's hard to believe that ageless beauty Cindy Crawford recently turned 54. The former supermodel still radiates vitality, delights fans with an incredible figure and is happy to share the secrets of eternal youth.
“It was not easy for me to accept aging, the very thought that I would soon turn 50 was scary. For a long time I was a 20-year-old model on the cover of Vogue, and then suddenly my daughter turns 20. But I don’t want to live my sixth decade trying to return 30-year-old herself, although she would like the skin and waist to remain the same as before,”- said Crawford a few years ago.
Cindy's beauty secrets are quite simple, and she proves by her example that exercising, proper nutrition and relaxation can work wonders. By the way, the model continues to be actively removed even now - she can often be seen on the covers of fashion magazines. She looks stunning even in a swimsuit. Here's how she does it.
Exercise regularly
Crawford has never been a fan of gyms, and even the famous video lessons were specially developed by her personal instructor to make it more interesting for the girl to work out. “I like yoga and running, but old-school techniques work better for me, for example, the ones that coach Radu developed for me, and which we showed in my video tutorials. Now I have a new coach, with whom I train at home three times a week. He makes me do push-ups, squats, and weights.”
In order not to get bored, the model tries to bring variety to the classes. For example, she puts headphones in her ears, turns on the music and runs up and down the stairs for half an hour that goes from her house to the beach. Or she jumps on a mini-springboard in her yard, and on weekends she often goes hiking with her friends.
Balanced diet
Crawford cannot imagine life without green tea. According to her, it has a positive effect on well-being, and in the morning the body literally begs for a cup of your favorite drink. And, of course, Cindy is not complete without a full breakfast.
She definitely includes green salads in her diet and tries to eat meat separately from rice, pasta or white bread, but sometimes she can afford a couple of cocktails or chocolate. Crawford's motto: be correct 80% of the time. This means that the model is not going to deny herself small pleasures, she just strictly observes the measure.
Relaxation
Cindy considers meditation and sauna to be the best way to relax after an active day. “I recently learned that family meditation courses can be held at home. I don’t do this every day, but it was very interesting to know how it positively affects mood from a scientific point of view. For me, this is a new way to relax when you need it. But my favorite relaxation ritual is the sauna. You sit there for half an hour with a good book and you come out renewed."
Skin care and makeup
Cindy lives in sunny California and wears sunscreen all the time. The model calls it an obligatory ritual, and on the beach she puts on a hat or sits under an umbrella. Crawford spends about ten minutes on makeup. Cindy prefers not to overload her face with unnecessary makeup, instead she pays more attention to skin care.
The girl sincerely believes that it is never too late to start taking care of the skin. “It is necessary to protect it during the day and restore it in the evening. It’s like training: you work out once and you don’t see the difference, but if you practice constantly for many years, the result will be,”says Cindy. She uses her own skincare line. In addition, Crawford follows simple beauty rules: he sleeps well, drinks a lot of water and does not smoke.
