When I was writing my previous article about staying young and beautiful for a long time, I thought about this: you will tell me that there are women who do not bother with all these rules, and still look amazing. And, yes, of course – some people are born with excellent genes, and it is easier for them to dodge health and  appearance issues. But only very few are that lucky. Everyone else has to make an effort to keep looking great. Otherwise, you’re in trouble! The good news is that any woman can look amazing and young if she doesn’t let her appearance go on its own and daily follows these basic, rejuvenating rules.

In the first recipe I’ll tell you about the amazing taste this sauce gives to the mahimahi, and in the second we’ll learn about the basil vinaigrette for the vegetable marinade.
