Who doesn’t want to be beautiful?
Using Chinese medicine for beauty had already advanced significantly more than two thousand years ago.
During the time of Chinese Empress Dowager Cixi, her beauty routine was a regiment.
The Empress would apply pearl powder on her face to keep her youthful looks and her face wrinkle-free. Cixi would use a mask made of mung beans, green tea extract, and motherwort.
Another famous ancient beauty was Yang Guifei, a concubine, the favorite wife of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. The emperor was deeply mesmerized by Yang’s beauty that he neglected his duties as the ruler. Being one of the Four Beauties of ancient China, Yang was not only beautiful and curvy, her skin was as soft as a baby’s.
Yang also had her own beauty secret.
Empress Yang religiously consumed almonds. Almonds were used as a nourishing and skin-moisturizing medical ingredient in ancient China. She would use almonds, musk, and talc to make a cream moisturizer for her skin. Almonds are known to increase dermal microcirculation and regeneration.
Barley was also one of her secrets. Empress Yang used barley to make beauty oil. Barley in traditional Chinese medicine has excellent properties due to its richness in vitamins and nutrients. Not only does it improve constipation, but it also reduces acne, dark spots, and wrinkles.
In her diet, the Empress enjoyed lychee and incorporated the Chinese herb ginseng.
People would search for the best lychee as an offering to the Empress. Its rich nutrients are suitable for the heart and spleen. It nourishes the liver, blood, and complexion. Ginseng, on the other hand, replenishes the five organs and relaxes one’s mind. It also helps eyesight, heart, and memory.
The most famous was her love for hot springs and face-tapping. Like acupressure massage, Yang would tap lightly around her face to stimulate different acupoints to enhance blood circulation and skin cell functions. Acupressure massage was also an anti-aging method in ancient China.
In 1972, 14 types of ancient medical books were discovered at the Mawangdui Han Tomb excavation in the eastern suburbs of Changsha City, Hunan Province. These books documented knowledge of medicine, diet, acupuncture, and qi gong, specifically to enhance beauty.
In Traditional Chinese medicine, the health of the face and skin relates to the human body’s internal organs, qi, blood, yin, and yang energy. Acupressure massage harmonizes the yin and Yang of qi and blood, promoting blood circulation, thereby removing wrinkles and leaving the face radiant.
Dr. Ritsugaku Ken, Chinese medicine physician and president of the Acupuncture Clinic Center at Kurashiki Heinari Hospital, explained in an interview that traditional Chinese medicine,
“Beauty treatment focuses on the overall nourishment and maintenance of the human body.”
The well-being and balance of human skin are inseparably linked to internal organs, meridians, qi, and blood through the meridians of the human body.
Dr. Ritsugaku shares his secrets of the eight DIY acupoint-specific massages for reversing signs of aging.
