Unrivaled Yves Saint Laurent.

Another legend of the fashion world would have turned 86 on August 1! Unsurpassed Yves Saint Laurent, revolutionary and romantic all rolled into one. He treated life philosophically and playfully at the same time. And he really loved and admired women like muses! The most famous quotes from Yves Saint Laurent: The best clothes for a woman are the arms of a man who loves her. But for those who are deprived of such happiness, there is me. In this life, I regret only one thing - that jeans were not invented by me. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity - everything I hope for in my clothes. In order to be beautiful, it is enough for a woman to have a black sweater, a black skirt and walk arm in arm with the man she loves. Love is the best cosmetic. But buying cosmetics is much easier than finding love. Never confuse elegance with snobbery. Fashion passes - style remains.

1. Acqua della Regina, Santa Maria Novella. A mixture of herbs and citruses in one bottle from the old Florentine pharmacy brand Santa Maria Novella. 2. Special No. 127, Floris. This is an obscenely classic fragrance from the perfumers of the royal English house. Fresh citrus notes blend with warm lavender, overt patchouli and oily musk. This perfume is more than a century old, and at one time Winston Churchill and Eva Peron loved it very much. 3. Eau de Basilic Pourpre, Hermès. What could be better than bright orange Hermes boxes? This is a very light herbal scent-loop with an admixture of notes of bergamot, basil and geranium. 4. Osmanthus, Ormonde Jayne.

Active stretch.

In fact, active charging is a “synonymous” with dynamic, but on the Internet you can sometimes find the opinion that this is not the same type of load. It's just that some are misled by different names, but the essence remains the same.

Dynamic stretch.

I am against dynamic stretching because I believe that such a process should be very neat and calm. In dynamics, you can abruptly perform one or another action and get injured, which will then make itself felt for a long time. Dynamic stretching is a “rocking”, that is, you are pulled not when you are in a static position, but when you are constantly in dynamics: you rock up and down, down and up. Therefore, most often, when you swing in this way, you can not calculate your strength and damage something.

Passive stretch.

It is also based on the principle that each person is pulled slowly, carefully, so I enjoy practicing it too.

Static stretch.

Static stretching is the safest stretch as there are no sudden movements during the session. They are all aimed at relaxation and achieving a state of calm. As the main direction of my studio, I chose just static stretching.

Let's talk about stretching!

This type of physical activity is simply necessary for all of us to be flexible and mobile. Personally, I myself have never been a gutta-percha person, I bend badly, for me even reaching the floor with my fingertips is a whole problem. So what types of stretching exist. Let's figure it out.

How not to confuse freckles with neoplasms? What should alert you?

The average freckle disappears in the cold season, it has a reddish-brown tint and does not rise above the skin. Freckles appear in places where the skin is more likely to be exposed to the sun. Birthmarks, which can degenerate into skin cancer, on the contrary, rise above it and appear on any part of the body - even on those that rarely come into contact with the sun's rays. If such a birthmark has uneven contours or shows sudden growth, it makes sense to make an appointment with a dermatologist.

Can they signal health problems?

Freckles themselves are not unhealthy, but they definitely signal that your skin is prone to problems that are caused by excess UV light. As a rule, the skin of people with freckles has a lighter shade, therefore people with such pigmentation may be more prone to skin cancer. The use of sunscreen is relevant for girls without freckles, but this tool will be the best help for their owners.

Secondly, the causes of freckles on the face are also natural

LA-based dermatologist Annie Chiu explains: “Freckles are the result of overproduction of melanin, triggered by the skin's attempt to protect itself from the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays. When cells called melanocytes absorb UV radiation, they produce large amounts of the pigment melanin - in those areas of the skin where this happens, freckles appear. Why do some people have freckles and others don't? Most often this is due to the genetic characteristics of the body: increased skin sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation is characteristic of redheads. But, of course, there are exceptions.

Why do freckles appear?

Firstly, freckles on the face are completely normal: if they do not cause you any inconvenience, then you should not fight them simply because your friend does it or the beautician advises it. Lady Gaga, Christina Aguilera, Kylie Jenner and Bella Hadid have them - all these girls posted photos with freckles, not intending to hide them from subscribers.

What are our freckles trying to tell us?

From the Greek word "freckles" is translated only as "sun spots". Most often, they appear with the advent of spring in fair-skinned and red-haired girls. But this does not mean at all that dark-haired girls cannot face freckles - and they do not always cause an attack of tenderness in their owner.

Your general mental state will improve.

The plank has a strong effect on a person’s nerves and improves mood. How? Elementary. During this exercise, muscles are stretched, the congestion of which often contributes to the appearance of stress and tension in the body. When you sit at work all day, your thigh muscles are constantly in tension, your legs swell, your shoulders become heavy due to the fact that you slouch at the table. All these circumstances put too much strain on your muscles and nerves. And the plank can not only calm your brain, but prevent the onset of symptoms of anxiety and depression. But only on the condition that you perform it regularly.

Flexibility will increase.

Gaining flexibility is one of the main reasons why you should plank every day. Indeed, during this exercise, all your back muscle groups expand and stretch. The shoulders, shoulder blades, collarbones, feet, fingers are involved here, the muscles of the thighs are stretched. And when doing the bar on the side, the oblique muscles also work hard.

The sense of balance will improve.

How long can you stand straight on one leg without falling? If only a couple of seconds, then this indicates that you have weak abdominal muscles. And the daily plank is the best way to “educate” your balance and coordination.

Your posture will improve significantly.

The plank exercise helps straighten your back. By strengthening your core muscles, you can maintain good posture. Because the abdominal muscles have a great influence on the condition of the neck, shoulders, chest and back.
