The French scientists have found out, that daily drawing of a make-up improves feeling of balance and coordination of movements, thereby playing a role of original gymnastics. Therefore elderly women who have got used to use decorative cosmetics daily, fall less often and have the best posture.

In the research spent at University Saint-Etienne, 100 women at the age from 65 till 85 years have taken part. It is curious, that influence of a make-up on a self-rating was initially studied. One of series of experiments included an estimation of a posture and the centre of gravity of a body of participants by means of special belts and insoles.
It was found out, that women who regularly put even a make-up small amount, stand standing much more confidently and have the best posture, than not using cosmetics.

According to the principal of research, the employee of company L'Oreal Patrisii Pino (Patricia Pineau), results of work testify, that the habit put cosmetics can to save women from falling in advanced age. Danger of falling is caused by that at this age balance and coordination of movements, on the one hand, worsens, and with another - durability of bones decreases and are exposed to age changes of a muscle and ligament. It often leads to fractures which can represent danger to a life. So, fracture of a neck of a hip at people is more senior 65 years in 20 percent of cases leads to mors within a year.
