9 Beauty Rituals From Around The World

Beauty rituals are something than women all over the world hold close to their heart – however, we were all raised in different cultures with different beauty rituals, each of them equally beautiful and intriguing. Here are the best beauty rituals from all around the globe that bring fantastic results.

1. Rice face cleanser for anti-aging

If you’ve ever wondered why Chinese women have somehow found the fountain of youth, a big part of that is their beauty routine. Soak Chinese rice in a bottle of water for 20 minutes. Then, strain the water and use a damp cloth to scrub rice on your face for 10 minutes.

2. Threading for stunning eyebrows

If you’re waxing your eyebrows, stop! With a thin polyester or thin thread, thread is doubled up and twisted to remove hair. It allows for more control with shaping and is gentler on the skin.

3. Oak leaf for exfoliation

This might not sound like the epitome of relaxation for many women, but in Russia, women enter a steam room and are beaten by an oak-leaf broom drenched in olive oil. Apparently, oak leaves contain natural astringent which gets rid of toxins, exfoliates, and opens pours. Then, ice cold water is poured over you to seal the deal. Thanks but no thanks.
