DOES GOOD SKINCARE REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
DOES GOOD SKINCARE REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE? I'm 54 and I don't have botox or fillers. I've only used skincare. But does good skincare really make a difference? Let's discuss this. I recently shared a video on my thoughts on the new JLO skincare line. One of the things I discussed was the fact that she's claiming that she's never had any work done and the reason she looks the way she does is because of her skincare routine only. I don't agree with what she's saying and here's why. PICTURES DON'T LIE If you look at photos of JLO you'll see that she has had work done.

WHAT DOES 50 LOOK LIKE WITHOUT PLASTIC SURGERY?
WHAT DOES 50 LOOK LIKE WITHOUT PLASTIC SURGERY? So what does 50 look like without plastic surgery? Check out the photos below to see what I looked like several years ago and now. I have never had any procedures or surgery. I have nothing against either of those. But I don't think it's necessary to go down that road. And I personally feel like procedures can end up making someone look older than they are. Or look their age but you can see they've had stuff done. My skin is not perfect and no one has perfect skin. But I do feel that my skin has aged backwards with what I've been using. I don't feel like it's ever too late to start taking care of your skin.Make sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel.

WHY I STOPPED USING TROPHY SKIN MICRODERMABRASION
WHY I STOPPED USING TROPHY SKIN MICRODERMABRASION Here's why I stopped using the Trophy Skin microdermabrasion. Several years ago I was gifted this machine from Trophy Skin. I tested it out and loved the results. I shared several videos on my YouTube channel on how I was using it. At the time I was using tretinoin a form of retin-a. While using that my skin was non-stop flaking. Occasionally I could control it with my skincare but most of the time it was out of control. I started using this machine and my flaking skin wasn't so bad. Then I changed up my skincare and no longer felt the need to use it because I was getting better results with what I was using. Here's where I started. Make sure to watch my video on this along with my recommendations. CHEMICAL EXFOLIATORS I started ... View Post
