Alexandra Golovanoff reveals her healthy-aging essentials Tata Harper
A true beauty and well-being enthusiast, she's the one we follow for her advice, tips and latest beauty finds. Alexandra Golovanoff invited us into her bathroom to reveal her healthy-aging routine for skin care. Tata Harper skin-care routine.
"Since I move around a lot and can't walk around with all my products, I don't have the same routine on hand all the time. But as long as I have all my steps everything's fine."
Her evening routine
"My evening routine consists of a very meticulous cleansing, always with a product that rinses off with water. It can be an oil, a milk... anything that can be applied with a mechanical action. As I have dry skin, I always choose gentle solutions that leave my skin moisturized. It's not unusual for me to double cleanse, sometimes even with an oil to dissolve impurities. I can't go to bed with the idea of still having pollution on my skin. It's really one of the first things I learned a long time ago, and one I'm sticking to..."
Can you tell us about your vision of better-aging?
"From my point of view, aging better means living better, which isn't always easy and requires awareness. The good thing is that as we age, we're more in tune with ourselves. You know yourself better, you've learned a lot and you're more experienced. On the "better" side, I think you have to try to slow down the aging process by maintaining the machine, taking care of yourself, doing sport and listening to yourself. It's not just a question of outward appearance, but also of metabolism, organs and proper internal functioning. And it's also in the mind, taking on projects, having challenges, etc. Everything goes together, of course. "
I see old age a bit like a slope that you have to descend as gently as possible... With a smile."
