The lifestyle of Indian women is established at a young age. They have their own way of keeping their beauty natural and healthy, having learned it as kids. With their organic foods and positive beliefs, they are full of knowledge about natural beauty and what helps to bring out the best in the body to look youthful at any age.
Here at Bright Side, we learned how Indian women preserve their beauty long after their youth, and we’re rushing to share their secrets with all of you.
Their local food plays a big part in staying young.
Spices, which are prevalent in Indian cuisine, have several beneficial effects on our health, including anti-aging properties. Most specifically, chili peppers may decrease changes that happen in skin cells over time, while ginger may prevent age spots.
Certain natural ingredients help boost their skincare.
An important part of their skincare is turmeric, an anti-inflammatory that’s said to be beneficial for skin health and to help grant users a natural glow. It can also possibly help with psoriasis and acne scarring.
They believe beauty starts from the inside.
Stress can take a huge toll on the person’s aging process. Not only does it compromise our bodies from within, but also leaves marks on our faces in the form of wrinkles. One way of dealing with anxiety is meditation. India is one of the oldest countries that practice meditation, which may help women fight stress and, as a result, preserve their youth.
They use a lot of organic hair products.
Hair-oiling, or massaging oil into hair, is a traditional practice for women in India that typically starts when girls are very young. Different oils can be used, like coconut, sesame, or castor oil. The latter is especially helpful as it contains omega-6 fatty acids. Amla, an Indian gooseberry, is also used in the belief it treats hair loss.

Julia Roberts: Embracing her well-deserved vacation
No matter how much time passes by from the time the iconic movie that stole millions of hearts aired, stunning Julia Roberts would always be the Pretty Woman we all fall for.
At 56, the actress defies age, no matter what people think of her looks. For one, she’s all about natural aging and embraces her appearance.
The beloved Hollywood icon has been spotted enjoying a well-deserved vacation recently.
What many noticed is that Roberts gained a few pounds, but looking at her, we can’t help but agree that the saying “beauty comes in all shapes and sizes” is totally accurate.
The great thing about Roberts is that she’s not afraid to put on bikini despite those extra few pounds, and that’s one of the reasons we all love her so much.
Of course, people’s opinions over Robert’s recent photos differ. While some say she’s changed, others are convinced she looks stunning for her age, or any age to be honest.
Her fans always stay by her side and remind us that beauty doesn’t always come from the outside.
For the last 20 years, Roberts has been happily married to Daniel Moder. When they first met in 2000 on the set of The Mexican, Moder was married to then-wife Vera Steimberg. Rumors were that his first marriage broke down because of the Runaway Bride star although she claimed she wasn’t the reason why Moder and Steimberg divorced.
Before tying the knot with Moder, with whom she shared three children, twins Phinnaeus and Hazel and a son Henry, Roberts was romantically involved with actors Dylan McDermott, Matthew Perry, Jason Patric and Liam Neeson. She was briefly engaged to actor Kiefer Sutherland, but the two split mere days before they were supposed to say ‘I do.’
Roberts then married country singer Lyle Lovett and their marriage lasted for two years, from 1993 to 1995. At the time she met Moder, Roberts was said to have dated actor Benjamin Bratt.
Today, the couple are as in love as day one.
