Ingrijirea tenului la 35 de ani/ Skincare tips for your 35’s

Pentru ca peste putina vreme voi implini 37 de ani, as vrea sa va povestesc cum am grija de tenul meu. Anul acesta la un eveniment Vichy,  aparatele de dermoanaliza au confirmat ca varsta tenului meu este de 26 de ani, deci cu 10 ani este tenul meu mai tanar decat varsta mea biologica. Am noroc si de un bagaj genetic bun, insa am si facut cateva eforturi sa imi pastrez un ten ingrijit.  Asa ca m-am gandit ca poate ar fi interesant pentru voi sa va spun ce fac eu pentru tenul meu si ce produse folosesc.
As I’ll be soon 37, I would like to tell you about how I take care of my skin. This year, at a Vichy event, the dermo-analysis confirmed that my face skin is aged
26, that is 10 years younger than my biological age. It is true I am lucky to have a good genetic heritage, but I also did some work in order to keep my skin
healthy and clear. So I thought that it might be interesting for you to find out what I do for my skin and what the products that I use are.

Incep cu un lucru simplu: tenul reflecta sanatatea si armonia din tot corpul si nu exista nici un produs cosmetic minune. Poti folosi produse super performante, insa daca nu te hidratezi si ai si dereglari in alimentatie, efectul lor va fi diminuat si uneori chiar anulat. Prima mea recomandare este sa analizati la rece ceea ce mancati, in ce mediu lucrati si ce ritm de viata aveti si apoi sa vedeti daca nu cumva inainte de a cheltui bani pe cosmetice ar trebui sa faceti cateva imbunatatiri la stilul vostru de viata.
Este bine ca in fiecare zi sa existe fructe si legume in stare cruda in meniul vostru, macar fructe uscate neprajite daca nu puteti sa va faceti o salata sau sa va strecurati un mar in geanta.
Apa este importanta , insa nu trebuie sa abuzati de ea. Daca am consuma suficiente vegetale in stare cruda, nu am mai avea nevoie sa bem multe pahare de apa pe zi. Asta am invatat din cartea d-lui doctor Daniel Menrath, Hrana pentru viata, si mi se pare foarte clara argumentarea dumnealui. Noi bem apa ca sa suplinim lipsa hidratarii care ar trebui sa vina din fructe si legume…totusi apa trebuie sa bem si sa fie apa , nu sucuri la cutie sau cafea.
I’ll start with a simple tip: the skin reflects the health and harmony in all your body, so there is no magic product. You can use great highly efficient cosmetic products, but if you do not hydrate your body and let it suffer from eating disorders, the result might be strongly reduced or even null.
My first advice is to take a close look at what you’re eating, at your working environment and at your lifestyle; only then you should decide if, before spending your money on cosmetics, it would not be better to improve your lifestyle.
It would be great if you could eat fresh fruits and vegetables every day, or at least dried unroasted fruits, if you don’t succeed in preparing a salad for yourself or putting an apple in your bag.
Water is also important but you should not use more than it is necessary. If we ate enough fresh vegetables, we should not drink more than two glasses of water each day. This is what I was taught by doctor’s Daniel Menrath book, Food for life, and I find his argumentation extremely convincing and logical. We are drinking water as a solution for the lack of hydration that should come from fruits and vegetables…yet we must still drink water, and it should really be water and not other liquids, such as juice box or coffee.
Eu sunt lacto-vegetariana de prin 2008, incerc sa am in fiecare zi un procent cat mai mare de vegetale crude in alimentatie . Uneori doar comoditatea ma tine pe loc, e greu sa faci o salata, sa iei fiecare frunza sa o speli, sa o tai, sa iei legumele , sa le tai etc….dar incet incet mi-a intrat in reflex sa fac asta.
I am a lacto-vegetarian since 2008 and I try to eat every day as many fresh vegetables as possible. Sometimes it is my own coziness that keeps me from preparing a fresh salad (asI have to take each leaf and wash it, then cut it, then add the vegetables, which I must also chop, etc…). But I gradually get used to doing this.
Sa trec acum la partea de cosmetice folosite.
And now, about thecosmetics that I use.
Regula mea este simpla: nu ma culc niciodata cu tenul necuratat si nehidratat si nu plec de acasa fara sa am o crema aplicata pe
fata.
Chiar si cand eram extrem de obosita atunci cand alaptam de 8-10 ori pe zi, tot cu ochii inchisi ajungeam la baie si imi curatam fata, fie doar cu o apa micelara. Imi aduc aminte ca si dupa cezariana ( aveam 34 de ani), a doua zi cand am ajuns in salon simteam nevoia sa imi curat fata cu ceva, desi eram
la 12 ore dupa o interventie chirurgicala.
I always follow a simple rule: I never go to bed without cleansing and hydrating my skin and I never go out without applying a cream to my face. Even when I was extremely tired from breastfeeding up to 8 to 10 times a day, I would still get to the bathroom (with my eyes almost closed) and cleanse my face, sometimes using nothing else but a micellar water. I remember that the next day after my cesarean section (I was 34 years old) when I returned to my room I was really feeling that I had to cleanse my face, although only 12 hours had passed since the surgical intervention.
Intotdeauna am cautat pentru ten formule simple, pe care sa mi le pot explica, am preferat mereu gamele de dermatocosmetice sau gamele romanesti gen Farmec, Elmiplant , Cosmetic Plant sau Herbagen. Am avut si am si creme performante de la marci precum Dior, Lancome , Estee Lauder, Clinique, Elizabeth Arden, Lierac, Decleor, Academie. Pentru mine descoperirea mare au fost cremele bio – game precum Sophyto, Florame, Essential care, Ren – si am vazut cum se simte un ten cand folosesti vreo 3 luni de zile in majoritate produse bio. Nu sunt o fanatica pentru bio, insa mereu am in rutina macar un produs bio.
Am inteles treptat ca hidratarea este vitala si ca tenul nu poate functiona corect daca nu are hidratare. O crema buna trebuie sa hidrateze
optim, adica sa simti ca tenul bea si el apa de care are nevoie din exterior si ca dupa ce o aplici parca simti cum zambeste fiecare celula de pe fata ta. Sunt rare produsele dupa care am simtit senzatia asta – le pot mentiona insa pe cele de la Uriage, Ivatherm, Cosmetic Plant, Bioderma si anumite produse de la Vichy.
Daca ai hidratare, poti face apoi tot felul de lucruri bune pentru tenul tau – sa mai adaugi un ser facial seara, cate o masca o data pe saptamana sau o crema mai performanta o data la 2-3 zile. Demachierea pentru mine inseamna neaparat un produs de  curatare de tip crema sau lotiune foarte cremoasa, o apa micelara, un
demachiant pentru ochi. Nu suport lotiunile tonice sau le suport partial , extreme de diluate, adica aplic pe discheta intai apa si apoi doar stropesc un pic cu toner. Asta mi se intampla de ani de zile si practic de pe la 34 de ani am renuntat la lotiuni tonice. Pentru ca uneori am probleme locale cu cosuri temporare am
in trusa de urgenta produse specific e de la Bioderma, Uriage, Avene si Vichy.  De la Avene ma salveaza mereu gelul Triacneal, cand cosul este mai mic folosesc Hyaluspot de la Vichy. Daca am mici zone inflamate vin cu Vichy Normaderm crema anti-aging, consider ca e o idee foarte buna de tratare a unei acnee locale pentru ten matur, o vad cum echilibreaza treptat si nu imi usuca tenul deloc.  Produsele acestea le folosesc rar, uneori trece si cate o luna fara sa le folosesc, dar nu m-as putea lipsi de ele.  Orice inflamatie de pe fata trebuie adusa la normal treptat si cu atentie ca sa nu porneasca alta problema. Cand a aparut prima data Normaderm de la Vichy in Romania, eu o dadeam pe toata fata daca imi iesea un singur cos….prima zi, fata arata perfect, de a doua zi incepea sa fie uscata.
I have always looked for simple
formulae for my face skin, which I can explain to myself; I have always preferred
dermo-cosmetic brands or Romanian brands
such as Farmec, Elmiplant, Cosmetic
Plant or Herbagen. I have used and I am still using advanced creams from Dior,
Lancôme, Estée Lauder, Clinique, Elisabeth Arden, Lierac, Decleor, Academie. To
me, the great change came with the discovery of the bio creams – by brands like
Sophyto, Florame, Essential care, Ren – this really gave me the opportunity to experience
how your skin feels when you use almost nothing but bio products for about
three months. I am not a bio fanatic but I always have at least one bio product
in my daily routine.
Little by little I
understood that hydration is vital to your skin as it
cannot work properly if not hydrated.
A good cream should provide an
optimal hydration; it should feel as if your skin was drinking its own water
and that, once you applied the product, every single cell on your face is
smiling. There are only a few products that really make me feel this way – I
can mention brands like Uriage, Ivatherm, Cosmetic Plant, Bioderma and some
Vichy products.
If you are hydrated, you
are free to do great things for your skin
– you can use a facial serum in the
evening, a mask once a week or a more advanced cream every few days.
To me, cleansing is
always requiring a cream type product or a very creamy lotion, a micellar
water, an eye cleanser. I do not tolerate tonic lotions, or if I really want to
use one, I strongly dilute it by moistening the cleansing disk first with water
and only then with a small amount of toner. This is happening to me for years
so I stopped using tonic lotions since I was around 34.
Because I sometimes deal
with some local problems caused by temporary pimples, I have in my emergency
kit products adapted for this matter by Bioderma, Uriage, Avene and Vichy. I
can always count on Triacneal gel by Avene. When there is only a small pimple,
I use Hyaluspot by Vichy. If there are small inflamed spots I use Vichy
Normaderm anti-ageing cream. I think this is one of the best formulae for local
adult acne; I can see how my skin gets balanced without getting dry. Although I
use this products quite rarely (sometimes after more than a month) I could not
do without them. Any inflammation on your face should be gradually reduced to
normal, and when you do this you need to take care not to cause another
problem. When Normaderm by Vichy was first launched in Romania, I used to apply
it all over the face even if I was dealing with only one pimple… the first day
my skin was looking great, but the next one it would start getting dry.
In ultima vreme incep sa experimenteze produsele care
exfoliaza tenul printr-o actiune enzimatica, 

am un asemenea produs de la Sophyto si urmeaza sa incerc si serul omolog
de la Artistry. Practic aceste produse dizolva resturile de celule moarte si alte
impuritati care se aduna pe fata.Mai nou testez si VisaPure de la Philips, un
beauty gadget care promite sa curete tenul extrem de bine si sanatos, inca nu
sunt convinsa 100% de capacitatile lui, dar inca suntem in teste ( eu am renuntat la ea, insa o folosesc in familie ).

De ceva vreme incep sa am nevoie de crème mai performante si
cu mai multe actiuni cum este Eucerin Volume Filler , Glykolift de la Ivatherm
sau Murad.  Urmeaza sa testez acum
produse de la Sisley si chiar imi doresc sa folosesc si ceva din gama lor
anti-aging. Am citit mult despre ce inseamna munca de cercetare depusa de Sisley
si chiar cred in aceasta marca…cred ca dupa o anumita varsta nu voi mai dori sa
risc, dar voi dori sa imi pastrez avantajul pe care il am acum, adica un ten
bine ingrijit si cu 10 ani mai tanar.Si pentru ca am o mare frica de chirurgia
estetica…. ca prefer sa investesc in ingrijire de zi cu zi, decat sa merg sa
apelez la bisturiu sau laser. In plus, eu cred ca mai degraba o ingrijire
treptata este buna pentru fata mea decat un tratament hocus pocus.

Lately I experienced
products that exfoliate your skin through enzymatic action
; I already have such
a product by Sophyto and I shall soon try the Artistry serum. What these
products do is dissolving the dead skin cells, residuals and other impurities
on your face. I have recently tested VisaPure by Philips, a beauty gadget that
promises to cleanse your face skin in a very
healthy and professional manner; I am not yet 100% convinced by what it can do,
but I continue with the tests ( I don’t use it anymore for me, I test it inside my family)
For some time now, I need
more advanced creams that work in several directions; the products I chose are Eucerin
Volume Filler , Glykolift by Ivatherm or Murad. I am also going to test some
Sisley products and I think I would really enjoy using some of their anti-aging
products. I read a lot about the researches Sisley develop and I really trust
this brand…I believe that after a certain age I shall not take any more
chances, but I’ll still wish to preserve the advantage I have now, that is a beautiful,
healthy skin, looking and feeling 10 years younger than my age.
And as I highly
resent the plastic surgery…I’d rather invest in daily care than resign to scalpel or laser. And above all, I
truly believe that a constant care is more beneficial to my skin than a
hocus-pocus cure.
Ma opresc aici ca vad ca o sa scriu o poveste, insa
retineti:
–         – Nu mergeti la culcare pana nu curatati tenul, nu
cu apa si sapun, ci cu produse dedicate tenului si care sa va faca placere…includeti
gatul si decolteul in rutina de ingrijire a tenului, iar pielea din jurul
ochilor are nevoie doar de produse dedicate acelei zone.
–         – Dimineata hidratati tenul imediat dupa ce va
dati cu apa pe fata si dupa ce mai faceti o usoara curatare. Dimineata as
recomanda doar o apa micelara la capitolul curatare;
–         – Beti apa, mancati legume si fructe , completati
efectul unei crème bune cu ceva din interior;
–          -Gasiti-va produsele pentru care sa simtiti ceva,
care sa va placa voua si nu prietenelor sau celorlalti.
–          -Necesarul de produse este: un demachiant pentru
fata, unul pentru ochi, o lotiune tonica , o crema de zi, o crema de ochi, o
crema de noapte, un ser facial, un produs pentru problemele de ten pe care le
aveti ( fie pentru cosuri, fie pentru roseata sau depigmentare)
–          -Testati inainte de a cumpara orice produs si
documentati-va, v-as sfatui sa ignorati reclamele. In principiu, orice magazin
de cosmetice trebuie sa aibe produse sub forma de tester si lasati instinctul
sa functioneze daca nu aveti suficienta informatie. Eu de obicei ma feresc de
cremele care miros extraordinar de bine si de intens, da , o crema trebuie sa
miroasa placut, dar nu sa imi inlocuiasca parfumul.
–          -Faceti-va un loc al vostru unde sa tineti
cremele, la indemana, insa nu expuse la caldura. Obisnuiti-va din cand in cand
sa stergeti recipientele pe exterior cu servetele dezinfectante sau cu un
servetel stropit cu un pic de spirt sau solutie pe baza de alcool. Punem mana
de atatea ori pe un tub de crema…mai trebuie si el sters din cand in cand chiar
el arata curat.
–          -Protectie solara!! – crema de zi trebuie sa aibe
SPF , adica factor de protectie solara.
–         – La 35 de ani nu va mai permiteti sa va jucati cu
tenul ,..luati treaba asta in serios.

 

Sper sa va fie de folos si astept intrebari.
I’ll stop here because I
might get to tell you a whole story, but keep in mind:
– Don’t go to bed until you
cleanse your skin, not just with water and soap, but with special products
dedicated to your face skin and that will make you enjoy this moment…don’t
forget the neck and the chest, and take care of the skin around your eyes by
using only products specially made for this area.
– In the morning, hydrate
your skin immediately after having it washed and softly cleansed. I would
recommend only a micellar water for cleansing.
– Drink water, eat
vegetables and fruits, support the effect of a good cream with something from
the inside.
– Find the products that
suit YOU, the ones that YOU like, and don’t just use what your friends or other
people like…
– You must have: a face
cleanser, an eye cleanser, a tonic lotion, a day cream, en eye cream, a night
cream, a facial serum, a product for the skin problems you might have (for
pimples, for skin redness or for depigmentation).
– Test before you buy and
get informed, I suggest you don’t pay much attention to commercials. Basically,
any cosmetics shop should have testers and you can even let your instinct
choose when there is not enough information. I usually avoid creams that have
an extremely strong and pleasant fragrance; yes, a cream should have a nice
fragrance, but it should not replace perfume.
– Create a spot of your own
where you can store all your beauty products, and make sure it is far from any
heat source. From time to time wipe the pots with some alcohol or some other
disinfecting solutions. We touch them so many times…they need to be wiped even
if they look neat.
-Sun screen! The day cream
must always have a SPF (sun protection factor).
When you’re 35 you no
longer can risk your skin’s health, take it seriously.
I hope this helps and I’m
waiting for your questions…( english version supported by Alina Costin, PHD Linguistics)
