Brazil is one of the most beautiful countries, not only because of the mesmerizing landscapes, beaches and weather conditions but also because of all the Brazilian beauty fanatics. Women and men (!) take their looks more than seriously. Brazilian women are also known to spend 11 times more of their income for beauty products than British ladies, according to a survey.
Brazilian beauties don’t want to be skinny, but body fat is also unacceptable. They rather want their body to be defined and feminine, which is why fitness is a must for everyone. Just visit the beaches and you will see women playing beach soccer, volleyball and doing other kinds of sports. In order to be fit, Brazilian women also pay a lot of attention to their diet. From healthy shakes to magic cures like Acai berries – healthy food trends are made here, in the country of Samba.
When it comes to hair care, Brazilian women are very vain as well. Keeping their mane beautiful and styled is crucial, which is why they don’t back off from dying, straightening and curling their hair. A straightening process called “Brazilian Blow Dry” to achieve sleek hair has received significant media coverage lately. Another very interesting fact might be that many Brazilian beauties would rather exchange their voluminous dark mane with blond hair!
Brazilian women also love to be tanned, because it looks healthy, sexy and vivid. However, they rather approach it following the motto: Less is more. A natural sun-kissed glow (also achieved by the numerous bronzing products) is much more desirable than perhaps the sun-burnt look some Western ladies tend to give their skin.
