A FORMER beauty therapist has revealed her unconventional method for a youthful glow involves defying gravity.
Nicola Jones shared her “secret weapon” for avoiding the visible signs of aging at 50.
Jones, who lives in London, England, founded the vegan-friendly skincare brand Face Junkie, following over 20 years of working in the beauty industry.
Speaking to The U.S. Sun, she shared tips for an ageless appearance.
Inversion tables are typically designed to relieve back pain while improving flexibility and strength.
However, surprisingly Jones said she “swears by” using it for anti-aging benefits.
“Inversion therapy is where you hang upside down with your feet above your heart, it’s my secret weapon,” she said.
“It’s not just about defying gravity, it’s fantastic for boosting circulation and giving your skin that extra glow.”
Jones said it’s best to focus on getting a radiant appearance rather than chasing youth.
“Radiance is timeless and can be achieved at any age with consistency,” she said.
“Stick to a daily skincare routine, eat a healthy, balanced diet, and most importantly, embrace happiness in your own skin.
“When you glow from within, that natural radiance shines through, no matter your age.”
She no longer eats refined sugar because it “literally eats away at collagen.”
Several nutrients are staples in her daily diet for a glowing appearance.
“I’m a huge believer in the power of vitamins C, E, and D, these antioxidants are like magic for keeping skin healthy and youthful,” she said.
“And when it comes to food, I eat an avocado every day.
“It’s packed with skin-loving nutrients that nourish from the inside out, making it a true beauty superfood.”
Dehydration can quickly lead to sallow, dull skin, so staying hydrated is key for a radiant complexion.

Jones said quality sleep and hydration are “non-negotiables” for her overall health.
“I aim for 6 to 8 hours of sleep every night,” she said.
“As for hydration, I drink 1-2 liters of water throughout the day to stay focused and keep my skin plump and glowing.
“Dehydration can quickly lead to sallow, dull skin, so staying hydrated is key for a radiant complexion.”
Jones previously revealed she uses Face Junkie’s Hero Collection from morning to night to keep her skin healthy.
The $150 bundle is curated for “preparation, prevention, protection, detox, hydration, and regeneration.”
Bakuchiol and Niacinamide are among the “game-changing” ingredients she will be adding to her brand’s range of products soon.
She said niacinamide reduces redness and hyperpigmentation, while bakuchiol is similar to retinol but doesn’t cause irritation.
