MY EVERYDAY MAKEUP ROUTINE Ladies…. so many thoughts about makeup at midlife. My everyday makeup routine is about as simple as it can get! I’m not one to spend hours and hours on my makeup….. that absolutely drives me CRAZY! I want it to be simple, fast and look natural! At midlife as many of you know, our skin becomes so much dryer. That’s why I stay away from any powdered makeup on my face. My skin looks better in a liquid foundation. However I do wear a dry blush and dry shadows, this has just always worked for me. I’m open to new products, such as a cream based shadow and blush IF I felt t ..read more

You probably know  this about me too….. the  BRIGHTER AND BOLDER, the BETTER!!! Not all of you ..read more

HOW TO FRESHEN UP YOUR MAKEUP Are you in need of some kind of something, something? I can get very bored with how I look…. my hair, my clothes, and MY MAKEUP! Changing up your makeup routine can be one of the least expensive ways to add that something extra that you’ve been looking for! Makeup can be relatively inexpensive, and a great way to feel updated! I have always loved playing with makeup and experimenting with new things. I’ve never been one to wear a LOT of it, but I do love the way it can enhance my features, and for me it makes me feel better! I hardly ever go without it, even if ..read more

A NEW SMOOTHING CREAM FROM AHAVA I have lived in the desert my whole life. Since being married, two and a half years ago, I’ve moved further south to an even dryer climate. The desert really and truly does make your skin dry, dry, DRY! I have felt it all over, but my face is what I’m most concerned about. We all know that it’s the FACE of a person that we notice the very first. Our faces are the very first impression we leave on others. For me, the way my skin looks and feels is everything. If it looks good, I feel good. In fact when my skin looks hydrated and healthy I feel beautiful everyw ..read more

Time for an update to my MAKEUP REGIMEN today. I get asked all the time, how I apply my makeup. I’ve blogged about this before, and there’s really not much that has changed, but always good to go through it again for those who are new! I am a pretty simple person when it comes to “getting ready”. I DON’T like to spend more than an hour, and it’s closer to 45 minutes each day putting myself together. Even though I love to be ready and look decent, I still don’t want to spend a lot of time doing it! It seriously makes me crazy to be hung up in this department! I’ve always loved makeup. I probab ..read more

Hello friends! YES I do use a self tanner, and THIS is the BEST SELF TANNER I’ve EVER used. Do you like to have that sun-kissed glow? I have always loved to have a tan…. oh my, when I was a teenager I was the worst at staying out in the sun for hours, trying to achieve the perfect tan! And boy oh boy could I get a GREAT TAN! Now as a sixty-one year old, I’m hoping that those hours in the sun, haven’t done anything too serious! I discovered TANACIOUS self tanning mousse through Instagram. I hadn’t found anything that I was COMPLETELY satisfied with…… until I found this one. It is SO BEAUTIFUL ..read more

Turn on your JavaScript to view content Today I’m asking you, “What do you want to know about me?” One of the hardest things about being a “public figure” is people tend to want to know more about my personal life than I let out there. I’ve never been one to let a lot of people in to my personal life, which seems sort of ironic especially now that I’m in the business of being a public person. My kids have never loved me sharing them on my social platforms, and so I respect that. My husband is more generous, but still doesn’t love to be out there as much as I’d like him to! He’s pretty good fo ..read more
