Perhaps many people think that taking care of beauty especially in order to look young costs a lot. Whereas in practice it is not always so. Voi's signature series "So Young Eternal" is next, about easy, cheap, and natural ways of youth.

Youth is everyone's dream. The impression is often perpetuated by the television image of the country towards women. White skin and slim body are a must. Inevitably, various ways are willing to be done by everyone who wants to maximize their appearance. Especially for those who are old will be willing to spend deeply to reject the old. The question is, should being youthful always be expensive? Can being young be easy, cheap, and natural?

The stigma of being beautiful is expensive is often explored through television and the internet today. The country's celebrities are the main actors. They are not only required to have talent, but also to appear beautiful. Because, it becomes one of the keys to the existence of this century.

To that end, not a few celebrities then compete to care for beauty with the most up-to-date treatments at exorbitant prices. Spending tens to hundreds of millions is not an astounding thing anymore to make it happen.

For example, beauty treatments performed by Pedangdut Inul Daratista. Pedangdut, who is famous for rocking drills, is known to spend his money on various facial and body treatments.

To support her appearance, Inul Daratista diligently takes care of her body. A series of treatments at the beauty clinic became her routine. Even Inul Daratista has also used diamond masks and gold as one of the treatment series.

"God willing (hundreds of millions). It's not billions. A lot of ya? Yes how many masks, want diamonds, gold masks, haduh many yes. But I was paid handsomely as a singer, so we give good service. From hair to nails I have prepared to look different," said Inul Daratista quoted liputan6.

Not only Inul, Krisdayanti (KD) who is often nicknamed Diva Pop Indonesia also routinely maintains appearance by regularly visiting beauty clinics. Even to Germany.

One of the expensive treatments that KD does is fresh cell theraphy. Once done the treatment, Rp185 million rupiah can be derailed. Moreover, the treatment when doing a one-time show in the country can reach more than Rp 50 million.

"Make-up to the salon is rare. Often make-up for the show. A month can be ten times, not bad. Wrong yes (Rp 50 million). Sometimes more (than Rp 50 million)," said KD quoted tabloidbintang.

According to Indah durable easy in a natural way is not a mere empty message. It is possible if a person is in an area that does not pollute cigarette smoke, vehicle smoke, and so on. Because pollution is the main cause that can damage the skin and make it unhealthy.

Moreover, the polluted condition is exacerbated by exposure to sunlight or UV rays that can damage the aging of our skin. So, a person needs skincare that contains SPF to protect the skin from UV rays. Its function is to slow skin aging.

To support that, outside and inside care must be carried out. both must be continuously carried out. Adequate exercise (Cardio and weights) and eating high healthy foods can be a bullet for youth. Mainly, foods containing high vitamins and nutrients, such as fruits and vegetables.

"Foods containing nutrients (vitamins and minerals) such as vegetables and fruits. Then foods that contain prebiotics and probiotics can help improve the digestion and absorption of our intestines to the vitamins and minerals we eat and drink. It can produce a good metabolism and make our skin look youthful," Indah told VOI, Wednesday, April 7.

The narrative revealed by Indah seems similar to the study conducted by a joint research team from Humboldt State University and the University of Colorado in Boulder, USA. In a study published in the journal PloS One revealed the key to youth is cardio, running. Which, the study proves that the metabolic efficiency of people over the age of 60 years will look like teenagers if they regularly run.

Research leader Justus Ortega said middle-aged people who regularly run will also be spared a decrease in road efficiency due to a decline in ageing physical conditions. In that context, the metabolism of elderly runners is 7-10 percent more efficient than parents who choose walking as a sport. "The level of efficiency is similar to that of young people in their 20s," Ortega was quoted as saying by Tempo.
