THIS IS WHY I DON'T FOLLOW YOUNGER BEAUTY GURUS Aging skin is very tricky to deal with when it comes to makeup application. And it's why when it comes to makeup application I don't follow younger beauty gurus. They offer great tips on application in general especially for younger skin. But on my aging skin I just can't apply my makeup the way that they do it. At 53 I have to be very careful with how much makeup I wear and also how I apply it. If I'm not careful I just make myself look older and that's not the goal. I decided to follow along with another beauty guru and apply my makeup the way she does it. I chose this channel because in my YouTube search when I typed in how to contour and highlight her video was the first one in my feed. The point of doing this along with her and ... View Post
HOW TO TIGHTEN SKIN ON FACE
HOW TO TIGHTEN SKIN ON FACE I recently discovered a fabulous product from Peter Thomas Roth called the instant firmx instant eye tightener and it actually really works on my under eyes. It gets rid of the puffiness, and lines. Since I had such amazing results I decided to try the face version of it. I found it when I was researching how to tighten skin on face. That's exactly what I typed up on my google search. At 53 I don't have lots of lines but I do have some and I thought if I could find a product that would firm and tighten my skin on my face that would be fabulous!

IS MEDICAL GRADE SKINCARE WORTH IT?
IS MEDICAL GRADE SKINCARE WORTH IT? That is the question of the day. Is medical grade skincare worth it? I recently had the chance to test out skincare that was sent to me from Revision Skincare. This is NOT a sponsored post. I was sent many products from Revision Skincare and I'm sharing my honest opinions and experience from testing it out. I was asked by Revision if I would test it out for 4 weeks but I've been testing it out for 8 weeks and am still using it. Like you I wanted to know if medical grade skincare is worth the money or is it just as good as anything else on the market but with a higher price tag. RESEARCH In my research which consisted of watching youtube videos and reading on line articles I came to the conclusion that it depends on who you ask. Some say that medical ... View Post
