I forgot how much I love gua sha ✨

I did this massage again and remembered why it’s so worth it!

Here’s what I love about it:

✨ Less facial puffiness — gentle massage can help move excess fluid and reduce the appearance of morning puffiness.

✨ Firmer-looking skin — massage can give your face a fresher, more sculpted appearance.

✨ A more defined-looking jawline — especially when puffiness makes your facial contours less visible.

✨ Better relaxation — the slow, gentle movements help me unwind and release tension in my face.

✨ A moment for myself — no rushing, no scrolling, just a few minutes to slow down and take care of myself.

You don’t always need a complicated beauty routine. Sometimes, the simplest rituals are the ones you enjoy the most. 🤍

At 36, I look better than I did a few years ago 😏

I used to wake up with a puffy face all the time. I was even afraid to eat late at night because I knew I might wake up looking so swollen.

The funny thing is, I was already eating well. I ate healthy, avoided sugar, and paid attention to my diet. But I still woke up puffy.

Then I added 3 things to my routine, and things started to change 👇

1. I started prioritizing protein.

Getting enough protein is important for your body to function properly. Severe protein deficiency can contribute to swelling, so I made sure I was getting enough protein in my diet.

2. I started strength training and building muscle.

Strength training became a regular part of my life. Muscle contractions help support blood and lymph flow, and staying active became another important part of my routine.

3. I started doing facial massage regularly.

This was a game changer for my morning puffiness. I started massaging not just my face, but also my neck and the area around my collarbones.

Over time, I noticed that I was waking up with a puffy face much less often.

Now, at 36, I love how I look. And no, I didn’t give up my favorite foods or start living on salads.

I just realized that eating healthy isn’t always the whole picture.

Protein, strength training, and facial massage -  3 things that helped me change the way I look and feel. 🤍

Want to keep your face looking youthful? Don’t forget about your neck and décolleté🤍

These areas are part of the same tissue system as your face, so they matter too.

Do these simple exercises regularly to keep the tissues mobile and relaxed and help prevent unnecessary tension from pulling your face downward.

Your anti-age routine shouldn’t stop at your jawline.

Morning puffiness, lost jawline definition, or dull skin? 🫠

Gua Sha is hands down the most effective natural way to sculpt your face and flush out fluid in just 5 minutes. 

But here’s the catch: technique is everything.

Holding the tool at the wrong angle, pressing too hard, or skipping the proper neck-to-armpit drainage pathway can actually cause bruising or trap fluid instead of removing it!

I’ve packed everything you need to master this tool into my Gua Sha Masterclass - including oil selection, skin biomechanics, and the exact step-by-step lymph map.

In Slavic culture, neck and jawline care isn’t an «anti-ageing» step you start at 40 - it’s a foundational daily ritual.

Most women spend hundreds on jawline fillers and expensive creams, but ignore the root cause: tissue adhesion and trapped lymph under the chin.

Why a double chin often isn’t fat:
Hours of looking down at screens cause the platysma and submental tissue to stick together (adhesion) and trap fluid. This creates a soft «pocket» that mimics fat and destroys your jawline definition.

HOW TO DO THIS RELEASE TECHNIQUE (as shown in the video):
Apply a few drops of facial oil or rich serum.
Gently pinch a tissue fold under the center of your chin.
Slowly roll and glide this fold along the jawline toward your earlobe 3–5 times on each side.
Finish by gently stroking down the neck to collarbones to drain the released fluid.

SLAVIC BEAUTY RULE:
Never stop your skincare at the chin - always bring your serums down to your neck and decollete! 🤍

13 workouts in, and I’m already close to my second pull-up 🥹

OMG, I still can’t believe it!

I’ve never been athletic, I’m 36, and I only started going to the gym a year ago. Honestly, I think I’m doing pretty well!

And I know my secret. It’s actually pretty simple 😅

It all starts with food and rest.

Before I got serious about training, I focused on my nutrition and getting my energy back. Then I started working out, and the progress came faster than I expected!

It’s not just about how hard you train. Your body needs enough food and rest to get stronger, too.

I’m 36, and I feel like I’m just getting started. It’s so exciting to see what my body can do! ❤️ taken in Balangan Beach by @daria_ekler

Have you noticed your nose looking different as you get older?

Your face can become puffier, and your nose may look wider or the tip may look lower.

Tight muscles and fluid buildup around your face can affect how your features look.

Facial massage can help reduce puffiness and make your face look more defined.

A few minutes a day can be a great way to take care of your face as you age🤍

Save this for your next face massage!

When I feel lazy and have no energy, that’s usually my sign to go to the gym😂💪

I always leave with more energy than I came with.

Stop searching for yourself. Start creating yourself🔥

Learning to stop waiting for help, better times, or the perfect moment and just start doing what I can was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

At 36, I feel better than I did in my 20s. I’m stronger, have more energy, and take better care of myself.

Sport, good food, proper rest, and self-care have changed so much for me.

3 months is enough time to see some amazing results and enter the New Year feeling like a better version of yourself! 

Of course, it’s not always easy. We all have days when we feel lazy, unmotivated, or just don’t want to do anything. That’s normal.

You don’t have to be perfect or give 100% every day. Just keep going, even when you don’t feel like it.

It’s never too late to start. No matter your age, where you live, or what’s happening in your life, do what you can with what you have.

Do it for yourself. For your health, your energy, your confidence, and the way you feel in your own body.

Don’t wait for the perfect moment or for someone to come and change your life. Start with yourself.

I truly believe that becoming a healthier, stronger, and happier version of yourself is one of the best gifts you can give yourself🤍 taken in Uluwatu, Bali, Indonesia by @daria_ekler

MY FIRST PULL-UP at 36😱💪

No jumping. No resistance band. I can’t believe it!

It took me just 12 workouts to get here!

I trained for 20–30 minutes each time, practicing different pull-up variations. I don’t train my back in any other way.

I thought it would take me much longer!

Now I’m waiting for my second and third reps🔥 taken in Bambu Fitness Bali by @daria_ekler
