On Shakira and Piqué: "Not speaking ill of your ex is a basic in any separation"
From Lady Di's dress to Shakira's sweatshirt: the most iconic revenge looks
What to do to avoid taking bad feelings home
Nothing inspires a great story like love, or the lack thereof.
There it is, without going any further, Shakira, who breaks the corduroy and makes cash by throwing poisoned darts at Piqué;
"Women no longer cry, they bill," reads her new revenge sweatshirt.
"Sorry that you get salty... sting."
But not only
women
, but also men, because turning bad slime into a profitable business has no gender.
Mario Vargas Llosa
can also walk in those ,
who far from being heartbroken by his break with
Isabel Preysler
is promoting his new story, 'Los vientos', a story with
autobiographical
overtones that seems to reveal between the lines what until now he had never told about the day by day at the house of the queen of hearts.
In its pages, a man in the last years of his life regrets having left his forever wife,
Carmencita
(curiously, the middle name of
Patricia Llosa,
the mother of the
writer
's three children ), obsessed by another who actually it wasn't worth it.
Coincidence or
revenge
?
In case there are any doubts, more criticisms pointing in the same direction, those that the writer makes of the obsession with the cult of the body and
beauty
.
Splendid at 71, it's no secret that
Isabel Preysler
takes care of herself with everything she has within her reach, from the latest salon treatments to the latest in cosmetics.
Her appearance is not
casual
, but she responds to long
hours
invested in her own
image
of her.
Some routines that the
Nobel Prize winner
questions, reviling in
'Los vientos'
what he considers an
obsession
with physique and stopping the passage of time.
"When I asked them why they worried so much about the creams, the
ointments
, the shaves, I noticed that they were uncomfortable, as if I had violated an intimate area," writes Vargas Llosa.
"After a very long pause, one of them murmured: 'Our body is
sacred
and we must take care of it.' For them, truly, what is sacred is perfume shops and pharmacies."
Little explicit?
Well there's more.
"As I told them that I never used
protective
creams , they were shocked. They confessed to me that all the
money
they earn from temporary jobs and the pensions they received for the mere fact of existing, they invested in buying
pills
, lotions,
tonics
, everything that prevents the deterioration of the skin, eyes,
teeth
.
Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.

Isabel Preysler's beauty routines
But what are those
beauty routines
that the Peruvian writer despises so much and that made living together in the house in Puerta de Hierro unbearable?
Isabel
herself has told them on many occasions
, to the delight of those who intend to turn 70 with smooth skin, without
spots
or hardly any
wrinkles
, and with an enviable figure that I would have loved at 20, I won't say more.
The first of his commandments, constancy.
"On a day-to-day basis, it is very important to be constant in our personal care. Only in this way will our goal be achieved:
hydrated
and illuminated skin," says the socialite.
"Thanks to perseverance and the help of a good
diet
and daily
exercise
, we will achieve a complete effect on our skin and be better with our body."
Well, get to work, that's how it's done.
Isabel begins each morning with a deep
cleansing
of the skin on her face, neck and décolleté, to eliminate bacteria,
impurities
and traces of sweat that accumulate while we sleep and clog
pores
.
After cleaning, it's time for the serum, to hydrate even the deepest layers.
She uses her own
cosmetic brand
De ella, My Cream, which in addition to nourishing and reducing expression lines, incorporates an illuminating complex that erases the
spots
produced by the sun and age.
Then, it's time to take care of a particularly delicate area, the eye contour.
To do this, apply, without pressing, by means of delicate touches with the tip of
the ring finger
, a small amount of specific cream that erases the signs of
tired
eyes, provides luminosity and
decongests
, avoiding the appearance of
bags
.
This same asset is also given in the
lip
area , also with fine and delicate skin, prone to betray the passage of time.
Lastly, Isabel applies an anti-aging cream based on
stem cell
technology to improve skin texture, reduce dark spots, moisturize, and provide
firmness
and elasticity.
All own brand products.
"I have tried many trying to find what I was looking for, and when I couldn't find it, I decided to create my own line," she says.
"In order for the skin to exercise its barrier function correctly, to be flexible and resistant, it must be sufficiently hydrated," she points out.

Sunscreen and self-tanner
Along with this daily care -which she repeats morning and night, before going to bed, to promote cell
regeneration-
, Isabel Preysler maintains rigid routines.
Especially important for her is
vitamin C
-an active ingredient that
brightens
the skin and that she incorporates both in her diet and in her creams- and sunscreen, with factor 50, to protect the face, neck and décolleté.
The
good face effect
is achieved with
self
-tanners that provide a beautiful golden tone without exposing the skin to the negative effects of radiation.
Exfoliation, once a week
As a routine, once a week it is time to
exfoliate
the skin to rid it of
impurities
.
"It is the fundamental previous step, with it we prepare the skin, strip it of impurities and give it uniformity. Not performing an exfoliation well means that the result of the
treatment
is not the desired one", explains Isabel.
She never uses the same product for the body and face -very forbidden!- and applies it to completely clean and damp skin to make it more effective, performing a gentle
massage
with her hands, with
circular
and ascending movements, especially focusing on elbows, knees and feet and with special care on the chest and neckline.
On her face, she works especially on the
T zone
and avoids the eye area.
When it's time to remove it, "
cold water
to close the skin's pores and activate its luminosity," says Isabel, who dries it with light touches of a
towel
so as not to make it redder.
Later, more hydration, with
serum
and cream.
neck exercises
To take care of the neck, another of the areas that ages the worst, Isabel Preysler regularly uses
lifting
-effect
masks
, specific creams (also from her cosmetic line) and an exercise table to firm the skin.
She herself has recommended the most
effective
: exaggerating the letters O and X ten times in a row, a
movement
that also tones the chest;
make complete turns with the head;
move her from left to right, and slowly tilt her until her chin touches her neck and then bring her as far back as possible.
And a detox shake
In addition,
Isabel Preysler
starts each morning with a
fruit and vegetable
detox juice that includes broccoli, spinach, cabbage, bell pepper, cucumber, apple, lime and zucchini.
A shake that gives her energy without adding calories and provides her with all the
vitamins
her skin needs to be perfect.
She herself shared the recipe on her social networks.

To do this, first squeeze the limes and reserve the
juice
.
Then cut the
vegetables
and grind them in a blender, to which you then add the juice.
Finally, beat the mixture at full power until it reaches the desired texture, slightly more liquid than a
milkshake
, but a little thicker than a juice.
