How does a person feel in life and society and how much do we like the way we live? It has always been interesting to psychology. It turns out that in many ways these are our subjective feelings, and often our joy of life does not depend on financial well-being. What is happiness? What do you need to be happy?

</br>

## 82 years long experiment

In 1938, Harvard University initiated the study. 724 people were selected. The first group consisted of students from the university itself, and the second group of subjects included people from poor areas. People who participated in the study were interviewed throughout their lives. They were asked all sorts of questions about themselves. Conversations were held with their colleagues, teachers, doctors. Also, their medical indicators were taken into account.

</br>

This study is unique because it has been able to last so long. Another 60 people out of the first 724 are alive and continue to participate in the study. A new group of 2,000 children was also recruited to further study the phenomenon of a happy life. The study survived and continues to develop only thanks to the enthusiasm of scientists, in particular, Robert Waldinger and his colleagues, who again and again send applications with questions, talk to participants and their family.

</br>

## Conclusions of scientists

What helps us stay happy and healthy for a lifetime? If you think of money and fame, then you are wrong.

</br>

So, according to Waldinger: “The clearest discovery we’ve made in a 75-year study is that good relationships make us happier and healthier.”

</br>

That’s right, the most accurate predictor of a happy and fulfilling life in the future is, in particular, love. Studies have shown that the presence of love in a person’s life keeps the nervous system calm, helps the brain stay healthy and reduces emotional pain. 

</br>

### *“It’s not about the number of friends, and it’s not about whether you’re in a relationship with anyone,” – says Waldinger – “It’s all about a close relationship”.*

</br>

It doesn’t matter if you have a large group of friends or an ideal relationship, only the quality of that relationship is considered – how deep and honest they are, whether you can be yourself.

</br>

## Principles of happiness

GoBeauty wants to share the happiness principles we use in our lives. We are sure that work in this direction will lead everyone to a good life and deep relationships. So:

1. Success depends entirely on your point of view. Consider yourself successful. Destroy the “does not work” argument that you have. Imagine it, visualize it, and then mentally take a large solid stone and break it. Designing failures leads to constant testing. Your low self-esteem is the result of a thought imposed on you, in which you believe.
2. Be able to see the future and be grateful to your loved ones, friends and colleagues. Grateful for the experience and situations that happened.
3. Be timely and reliable in all respects. It means to do everything on time when you are asked to do it, not when the stars in the sky are in the right order or the weather is fine. Reliability is when you are sure that under any circumstances you will be heard and helped.
4. Be attentive to yourself, to your actions and attentive to others. Start with yourself. Don’t demand from others what you don’t have.
5. Watch what you listen to. If your environment complains about husbands, children, managers, health, neighbours, other circumstances, keep track of it and direct the conversation in a different direction. Don’t be afraid to evaluate your words. It is better to suggest another topic of conversation.
6. Systematicity is also very important. Lack of regularity and inability to keep the rhythm of positive change can lead you to think that you do not succeed or it does not work. But remember the behaviour of babies in the first year of life – how persistently they train their walking skills. Fell – got up – went on. And with what passion! Get infected with your perseverance, happiness, desire and faith. Your downfalls are the path to your success.

And finally. Do everything easily, take yourself and others not so serious. Laugh enough. Learn by doing, but not losing sight of the result. Discipline your thoughts, words and actions to be true to your decision. Do everything with love and be happy.

Scientists have proved: Money does not bring happiness

Now any TV-show can be found in a couple of clicks, and there is not enough emotion that erupted in front of TVs in the 90s and 2000s. Back then, nothing could stop us from watching favourite stories. And it is simply impossible not to remember some of them.

</br>

## Beverly Hills 90210

</br>

The cult series about American youth of the 90s, on which a whole generation grew up – it aired for ten years. At the centre is the story of the Walsh family, who moved from Minnesota to the hot and rich Beverly Hills. The authors not only tell about the lives of the main characters but also about the problems that every teenager sooner or later cope with.

</br>

## Melrose Place

</br>

After the success of the Beverly Hills, Aaron Spelling and Darren Starr, the producers, made the Melrose Place series. It surprised viewers around the world with a combination of drama and sex with black humour, violence, shocking and absurd plot twists.

</br>

Melrose Place became the first soap opera to tell about the yuppie culture.

## Charmed

</br>

Prue and Piper Halliwell live in their grandmother’s home in San Francisco. Their lives change dramatically when younger sister Phoebe comes to visit them. When she discovers the family’s Book of Shadows in the attic, she learns that she and her sisters are the most powerful witches ever known. From now on, their mission is to protect the world of humans from the effects of evil, witches and magicians.

</br>

## Columbo

</br>

The perfect interiors of country houses and city apartments, unfaithful wives and envious best friends, armed with poisons, knives, pistols, and of course, Peter Falk in a rumpled coat with a playful eye and eternal stories about his wife. The series is innocent and old-fashioned, rich and wasteful in detail.

## Friends

</br>

The story of six cheerful friends, told with a stunning sense of humour, was strikingly different from the popular soap operas of Brazil at the time. So far, Friends remains one of the most beloved series on the results of numerous polls. On May 6, 2004, the last series of the show was released.

</br>

## Sex and the City

</br>

This TV-show began in the 90s, but most of it came in the 2000s. At the centre of the story are Kerry Bradshaw, Miranda Hobbs, Charlotte York and Samantha Jones – four inseparable friends. Four bright personalities, four perspectives on life and four ways to overcome problems. Independent residents of New York, boldly crossed the thirty-year frontier, confident and honest with each other. The phrases could be continued for the characters from the second viewing. It seems to us that this story will never be outdated because the very concept of friendship is eternal.

## The X-Files

</br>

It is one of the most popular American TV-show of the time, which was shown in various countries. This is a mysterious and fantastic television series about 2 FBI agents: Dana Scully and Fox Mulder, who are constantly faced with obscure events. They are tasked on a secret “The X-Files” project – an archive of cases involving various paranormal phenomena. 11 seasons of the cult series were released, as well as 2 films of the same name.

In the realm of horology, women's watches occupy a fascinating niche, embodying both aesthetic allure and engineering prowess. This article spotlights vintage women's watches from the 20th century—a period replete with innovation and cultural shifts. From the elegance of cocktail watches to the robustness of boyfriend watches, the century left an indelible mark. Delve into the iconic brands, remarkable designs, and social impact of these timepieces that have gracefully transcended fleeting fashion trends.

## The Evolution of Women's Watches

<a href="https://dumarko.com/collections/womens-watches">The women's watch</a> journey has seen a vivid metamorphosis, dating back to the ornate timekeeping brooches and pendants of the 18th and 19th centuries. Yet, it was the 20th century that brought forth a renaissance in design, technology, and cultural import for these wrist-worn marvels.

</br>

![real_7e9f9e53-e6e1-4754-b030-4da1d82eb310.jpeg](https://gobeauty-prod.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/strapi/real_7e9f9e53_e6e1_4754_b030_4da1d82eb310_f9bdd965a5.jpeg)

</br>

## Pre-20th Century Overview

Before the 1900s, women's watches were often more jewelry than timekeeping tools. These pieces, known as "chatelaines," were usually attached to a brooch or a belt. Function often took a backseat to form, and accuracy was not the main draw. However, these designs set the stage for the radical transformations that were to follow.

### The 20th Century: A Turning Point

The 20th century signaled a pivotal era in the women’s watch landscape. With the rise of industrialization and the women's rights movement, watches became both practical and symbolic. Brands like Rolex and Cartier redefined luxury, while the Art Deco movement introduced sleek lines and geometric designs. Moreover, the cultural significance of these watches surged—they became emblems of independence and status, serving both function and fashion in equal measure.

</br>

![real_dee9fcb6-7197-44e2-9248-24d15547c6c8.jpeg](https://gobeauty-prod.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/strapi/real_dee9fcb6_7197_44e2_9248_24d15547c6c8_81831020d8.jpeg)

</br>

## Iconic Brands and Their Vintage Collections

In the golden era of horology, the 20th century, certain brands elevated women's watches from mere timepieces to artifacts of luxury and sophistication. Brands like Rolex, Cartier, and Omega pushed boundaries, blending ingenious craftsmanship with alluring designs. These trailblazers set benchmarks not only for technical prowess but also for aesthetic innovation.

### Rolex

Rolex, often associated with unrivaled luxury, introduced the Lady-Datejust in 1957. Crafted from the finest materials, this timepiece brought automatic movements into the realm of women's watches, a game-changing innovation at the time.

### Cartier

Cartier, the epitome of Parisian elegance, revolutionized women’s watches with the introduction of the Tank in 1917. Designed with right angles and a no-nonsense aesthetic, it became the go-to watch for women of discerning taste and continues to be a timeless classic.

### Omega

<a href="https://dumarko.com/collections/womens-watches/products/vintage-watch-omega-de-ville-quartz-swiss-watch-slim-unisex-wrist-watch">Omega carved</a> its niche with precision and reliability. Their Ladymatic line, launched in 1955, boasted an automatic caliber tailored for women. Celebrities like Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe were known fans, adding to the line's allure.

</br>

</br>

## Notable Design Features

The 20th-century woman wasn’t just defined by the times she lived in; she was also defined by the watch she wore. Notable designs like the Cocktail Watch, the Boyfriend Watch, and exquisite craftsmanship played key roles in this era's watches.

### The Cocktail Watch

Cocktail watches, adorned with gems and often minuscule in size, epitomized glamour and sophistication. These watches were a hit in soirees and ballrooms, where women would discreetly glance at their wrists without drawing undue attention.

### The Boyfriend Watch

Breaking away from petite designs, the Boyfriend Watch offered an audacious alternative. Borrowing elements from men’s watches, these oversized pieces embodied a sense of empowerment and style fluidity. Think Katharine Hepburn with a dash of tomboy charm.

### Materials and Craftsmanship

The era saw a zenith in the use of luxurious materials like gold, platinum, and mother-of-pearl. Skilled artisans incorporated these into meticulously crafted watches that boasted both robust mechanics and artisanal elegance.

## The Role in Fashion and Pop Culture

In the 20th century, women's vintage watches transcended mere function to become cultural markers. Fashion icons, Hollywood celebrities, and media outlets wielded significant influence in their meteoric rise as coveted accessories.

### Hollywood's Influence

Stars like Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor donned luxurious timepieces, catapulting vintage watches into the limelight. These iconic women lent a touch of glamour and class, making it more than just an accessory but a statement.

### Fashion Magazines and Vintage Watches

Publications like Vogue and Harper's Bazaar featured vintage watches as the epitome of elegance. Their curated editorials often centered on these timepieces, cementing their status as must-have fashion items and collectibles.

## Where to Find Vintage Women's Watches

For the discerning collector, the quest for the perfect vintage watch can be both thrilling and daunting. Here’s where to start your time-traveling journey into the world of vintage horology.

### Online Marketplaces

Sites like eBay and Chrono24 offer a wide array of options. Yet, a discerning eye for authenticity is crucial. Always opt for listings that come with provenance or certification to avoid counterfeit pitfalls.

### Auction Houses

Auction houses like Sotheby's or Christie's provide a more curated experience. They offer authenticated, high-caliber pieces, usually with a rich history, but often at a premium price point.

## Conclusion

The allure of 20th-century women's vintage watches is multi-faceted: steeped in history, designed with artistry, and embedded in popular culture. Whether you're a seasoned collector or a curious enthusiast, these timepieces offer a unique blend of craftsmanship and cultural cachet worth exploring.

The most mysterious and terrifying night of Halloween is approaching. How to make a perfect holiday that will appeal to the whole company and will be remembered for a long time? Tips, life hacks, ideas – read about it in our new article.

## Scenario

It can be anything you like: a plot of a popular movie (or a fragment of it), a witch party (perfect for a bachelorette party), a night of scary stories, angels and demons (divide attendees into an army of good and evil), a gothic party, a ghost lair. A holiday can also be organized in the form of a quest, especially if it is possible to invite an actor or another person who plays the role of a ghost and scares the guests a little.

</br>

![halloween-1.webp](https://gobeauty-prod.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/strapi/halloween_1_5286d33586.webp)

<center>photo credit: Pinterest</center>

</br>

## Costume

It can be bought in a speciality store or sewed by yourself. You can choose a thematic costume (witches, owls, bats) for the image or “thematize” any other (tear and dirty the Snow White costume). So, everything here is limited only by your imagination and dexterity of hands.

## Makeup

For homemade Halloween makeup decorative cosmetics (shadows, eyeliner, pencils, blush, powder), false eyelashes, paints, prepared independently may be suitable. To create realistic makeup of the girl used by any products, which is just enough imagination of its creators. If you want to make the task easier, buy a ready-made makeup kit in the spirit of a particular image. For example, in the “Halloween vampire makeup”, you will probably find false teeth with fangs, a bag of “blood”, black and red paints and a brush.

</br>

In addition, you will need brushes of different thickness and texture, sponge, napkins and cosmetic disks. Makeup video tutorials you will find on YouTube.

## Jack’s lamp

You don’t know what Jack’s lamp is? This is the main symbol of the holiday! That pumpkin for Halloween, whose grimaces everyone is trying to make as sinister as possible! Using a marker to draw a terrible face, then cut it on the outline of the drawing with a knife. A candle or a flashlight is placed inside, and a regular pumpkin turns into a table monster with a backlight. But, if you don’t want Jack’s lamp to be evil, then make him kind with a sweet smile.

## What is a party without music?

We recommend choosing a playlist with tracks that will create the atmosphere you want in advance.

</br>

Bring your music outside so your guests are scared before they come to you. This music can be much shorter than what will be played inside. Search for scary music pieces online. 

Add a bit of humour to the holiday and put up some fun content ads like:

- “Be careful – they can eat you”
- “Dear guests, please do not bite!”
- “A healthy and attractive vampire needs a donor”
- “The young witch, 127 years old, wants to meet a reliable life partner for joint flights on a broom and the organization of abominations”
- “Did the dark work – drink blood boldly”

In the fall, most of all, we want to wrap ourselves in a blanket and read a good book with a cup of coffee. GoBeauty won’t stay away from cultural life this fall, so we’ve prepared the TOP-3 books for you that we recommend reading right now.

</br>

## Francis Scott Fitzgerald: The Great Gatsby

The novel takes place near New York, on the “golden coast” of Long Island, in the midst of rich villas. In the 1920s, after the depression that accompanied America during the war, the economy entered a period of prosperity. These were golden times that were only overshadowed by dry law – it gave impetus to the development of organized crime. Admiring the wealthy young men and their charm, the author simultaneously condemns the unlimited materialism and lack of morality of America of those times. In the image of Jay Gatsby, Fitzgerald managed to achieve amazing harmony in depicting the allure of the dream and its inevitable collapse. This is a story about how the money and power that the hero wanted did not make him happy.

</br>

## Ernest Hemingway: For whom the bell tolls

It is a brief but poignant reflection on the subject of death, ideology and the incredible cruelty and absurdity of war. Critics consider this novel to be one of the best. Full of tragedy is the story of a young guy who came from America to Spain, engulfed in the civil war. A brilliant yet sad book about war and love, true courage and self-sacrifice, moral duty and incurable human values. And nowadays Hemingway’s “For whom the bell tolls” sounds as exciting and disturbing as it did fifty years ago. So “never ask whom it is calling: it is calling you.”

</br>

## Harper Lee: Kill a mockingbird

This book is a lesson of humanity through the eyes of a young child. The novel depicts the events of the 1930s, the period of the Great Depression in America. The protagonist’s father is a lawyer defending a black guy who is accused of raping a young white girl. The plot and characters are mostly based on the author’s observations of her family, neighbours and events that took place near her hometown during Harper Lee’s childhood. The novel became a classic of contemporary American literature and received the Pulitzer Prize.

Everyone knows that beauty is a daily job. It requires not only careful and consistent care but also attentiveness to detail. This is where the main problems occur: most girls make serious mistakes in self-care. We talk about the harmful rituals of morning beauty care, which should be eliminated as soon as possible.

## Do not cleanse the skin in the morning

Every girl knows that you can’t go to bed with makeup. But not everyone has heard that you need to cleanse your face in the morning. Of course, this is not about rinsing your eyes and brushing your teeth. We suggest the usual cleansing ritual that you do in the evening. It is especially true for oily and problem skin. After all, at night sebum accumulates on your face, cells die, so they need to be removed. To do this, use delicate gels or foams for washing. The water temperature should be warm.

</br>

![zhenshhina.jpeg](https://gobeauty-prod.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/strapi/zhenshhina_0f2956b01a.jpeg)

<center>photo credit: Pinterest</center>

</br>

## Use a scrub

Cleansing is a must-do (read the first point), but there are nuances. The fact is that while you scrubbing the skin in the morning, you open the pores, and then apply makeup on the face, which, in turn, clogs them. Therefore, peeling should be used only in the evening, then apply a skincare serum and moisturizer.

## Take a hot shower in the morning

Many people like to wake up with a hot shower, but for the skin, it is not very useful. Due to steaming the skin may become red and irritated. Moreover, for many contrast shower is much more invigorating option, try it yourself. As a shower gel, choose fresh citrus or marine compositions and help them to fully unfold, actively beating with a washcloth. This will help cheer you up.

## Squeeze pimples

Acne often appears on the eve of important events, so it is incredibly difficult to refrain from squeezing. And yet cosmetologists strongly advise getting rid of this bad habit. Pimples squeezing leads to the scars and traces of post-acne formation, the spread of infection. 

</br>
<a href="https://gobeauty.space/en/kyiv/all/">

</br>
</br>

A special cosmetic concealer with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect will help. Apply a small amount of the product on the damaged areas of the face and fix the result with powder for better stability.

## Neglect SPF protection

Sun protection should be one of the main elements of effective care. Solar radiation, which we deal with every day (not just in summer), is one of the main causes of premature skin ageing. Therefore, you should add another important point – the use of cream with a UV filter. Some of these products do not have additional moisturizing properties. So you must also use the usual cream, which will take care of good skin condition (it is better to apply it before SPF).

A series of banquets, corporate parties, called dinners and apogee – New Year’s Eve with roast goose and other dishes. How to be: to deny yourself everything by eating unhealthy meals or to indulge in gastronomic madness? We’ve put together some lifehacks to help you get the holidays delicious and without sacrificing your figure.

## Choose healthy food

Prefer low-fat meat: turkey, chicken, veal, beef, duck, rabbit. In your taboo list only pork. There are many ways to cook meat: Of course, it should be baked rather than fried.

</br>

As for the fish in the holidays, we can afford a greasy fish: you can eat salmon in appetizers, but keeping a good measure – a couple of slices of salted salmon will help to knock out the onion.

</br>

As a side dish, choose vegetable dishes. Your table should be full of vegetables in various variations: vegetable slicing, spring salad, stew or ratatouille, baked vegetables are perfect for this kind of event.

</br>

The cheese plate is the perfect snack. Feta, ricotta, cheese, Adyghe cheese, mozzarella will be the best choice.

</br>

Sweets should be chosen light – jelly, marshmallows, marmalade, dark chocolate, tiramisu, cheesecake – what you need. 

## Get the right snack

During the holidays, unhealthy snacks like cookies and candies are always on the table. When delicacies are readily available, you are more likely to eat them, even if you do not feel hungry. At home, this problem can be solved by keeping treats out of sight. However, it is more difficult to follow this strategy if you are visiting relatives or at a corporate party. Try not to take everything from the table in a row. If you are hungry and want a snack, choose a healthy meal. Fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds are great snacks that contain no sugar or harmful fats.

## Get enough sleep

Lack of sleep, which is quite common in the holidays, can lead to weight gain. It is because the one who sleeps less consumes more calories with less activity. Restriction of sleep can increase the level of hunger hormones, which will eventually lead to increased calorie intake. Also, poor sleep is associated with a low metabolism. It can be caused by changes in your circadian rhythm, a biological clock that regulates many body functions.

## Trick your body

- Before going to the holiday feast at home, it is advisable to have a light meal a few times (not to eat).
- Studies have shown that people who are dieting in low light are more likely to overeat. Therefore, it is better not to be alone with a plate in a dark corner, but to sit at a well-lit table.
- Switch alcohol with water. Alcoholic beverages are not only full of calories by themselves (in one glass of dry wine – 75 kcal); they are also insidious. The more you drink, the less you control what and how much you eat.
- Drink more mineral non-carbonated water; it fills the space in the stomach and creates a feeling of satiety for a while.
- Eat apples, especially green, their structure and fibre help reduce appetite.

## Move more

There is nothing worse for health than sitting idly at the tables all the holidays, to get your body to the bedroom. The only prize for such tenacity will be extra pounds.

</br>

If you are preparing your own New Year’s party, be sure to think of an exciting active program – competitions, dances, games in the hall or the open air, playing snowballs, competing for the best snowman. Then you will be impressed and forget about the extra pounds.

</br>

If you are in a restaurant, cafe, nightclub, there too, you will undoubtedly be involved in a festive program, dancing and active games. Try not to remain a passive spectator, have fun, move around – and you won’t need to think about food.

Yoga is the easiest way to relax, which gives peace to the body and soul. The purpose of yoga is to improve the physical, emotional, social and spiritual level of a person. Promising, is not it? GoBeauty Blog came to the gym and asked girls and boys who have been practising yoga for several years. They told us how their lives changed after getting to know yoga practice.

</br>

1. Ben, 23 years old *Yoga helped me to improve my physical condition. I began to practice it about a year ago until I have yet to consider myself advanced, but most simple asanas I am already able to fulfil. During this time, I was able to improve the posture, began to feel easy.*.

</br>

**Coach comment**. Yoga helps to strengthen muscles and vessels, get rid of pains in the lower part of the spine, develop flexibility. In addition, regular exercises help to heal all organs and systems of the body, because when performing asanas there is a massage of the internal organs. A pleasant bonus of classes is a more graceful movement. 

</br>

2. Marta, 29 years old. *«After 5 months of training, I was able to get rid of the excess weight that was gained during pregnancy. Of course, not only the exercise helped but also a complete revaluation of values. I’m happy to start practising yoga.*.

</br>

**Coach comment**. A few years ago, American scientists conducted an experiment with adolescents and found that yoga and Pranayama changed blood circulation and metabolism in the body and even reduced the amount of stomach that led to a natural adjustment to the diet. And regular training helps to develop gamma-aminobutyric acid, which is responsible for weight loss. 

</br>

3. Sarah, 45 years old. *«When I started practising yoga, I was expecting to pull a figure but got a nice bonus – strong nerves. Now, after a hard day, I do not take the soothing, and I hurry to the training gym.»*.

</br>

**Coach comment**. Any physical exercises are capable of removing irritability, but in yoga itself, there are special techniques of relaxation, through which it is possible not only to calm down but also to clear the mind from unnecessary thoughts, information, anxieties. This is achieved due to the fact that the classes help to reduce the level of cortisol – a stress hormone. The result is a good feeling and clarity of thoughts.

</br>

4. Susan, 52 years old. *«I did not fully understand how it works, but after training, I leave the hall like on the wings. Previously, I have engaged in power exercises and out of the room came out like a squeezed lemon, and now I go out of training with a smile on my face»*.

</br>

**Coach comment**. Yoga really makes people happier. Studies have shown that yoga raises the level of serotonin (a hormone of happiness), which raises the mood, gives strength and makes life more positive.

</br>

5. Alexia, 35 years old. *«Yoga helped me to understand myself, to know not only the body but also the soul, to develop spirituality. I received a sense of calm confidence, developed the willpower and learned to take responsibility for my life»*.

</br>

**Coach comment**. Yogic practice develops intuition, gives peace to the spirit, and most importantly – consciousness. Most of my students, coming in for a beautiful body, received not only a slim figure but also became the masters of their destiny. Even everyday affairs get a new meaning since a person relates not to a natural disaster, but consciously, takes responsibility for own actions and decisions.
