Golden Age Beauty
Well, I'm now officially a 'golden girl'. Just had my fiftieth birthday a few days ago. I thought I was high maintenence before, now I guess I'll be higher to maintain than before. I don't like this aging process now. I have noticed the subtle changes in my facial features and I'm not too pleased with what I've seen so far. I'm looking into some different facial creams, cleansers, etc. to see if any of it really works or if its just a bunch of hype and illusional for the aging women out there who are beginning to fight the signs and facts of aging. I'll need to be consulting with my Mary Kay rep more frequently would be my guess.
Not only will I need to keep a close eye on the facial features but the eyes themselves are not what they used to be either. I think this is harder for me to accept because of my love for reading and its just not the same when you have to hunt a pair of glasses to read the simplest things. And since when did they start prinitng everything in micro-print? Good grief! It doesn't seem that long ago that I could read that itty bitty type!
Then there's this gray hair to deal with. So far, I've found a hair style that hides the worst of it. I've not yet decided whether or not to color it as it turns whiter. I'll just have to cross that bridge when I get closer to it. For now my plate is full enough. I'm ever so grateful for the makeup and I love being a female to get to use it and play with it. However, I do wish I'd have had access to all that can be bought nowadays. Although I didn't have need of it so much in my younger years.
I've been spending extra time lately playing with my recent Wet n Wild makeup. Its great quality makeup that can be found at Walgreens and Rite Aid Pharmacies for really cheap. I've also got my August shipment of Smashbox makeup from QVC. I'll be doing a You Tube video about it and probably with the Wet n Wild too. It's kinda hard for me to find the quiet time it takes to make videos these days.
I need to take some pics and post here when I get more time too. So I hope if you are reading this and want to find out more you will come back again in a few days and till then check out my YT channel at DRmakeupgirl.
