Are My Dark Spots Really Fading? - - YES.....along with my guilt and self-loathing.

Are My Dark Spots Really Fading?

Qure Micro-Infusion at home treatment – How’s it going? Just to remind, the Qure System is meant to be used every two weeks, for 3 months.  [For a more complete explanation of this product, how to use it, see my previous post’s link here –  https://wp.me/p9SRk0-1yJ]  I’ve completed two treatments thus far.  With that kind of time frame, you wouldn’t expect to see significant improvement over…

It's not about the sun spots.

Why anti-aging matters to me….beyond esthetics? I never had sun spots until I lived in Hawaii.   You might think living in paradise is a happy trade off for a few sun spots.  But, it’s deeper than that.  Hawaii is where I became a full-time caretaker of three people (my daughter who was just 9 years old, my Mom who was 94 and had dementia, my husband who is disabled.) I quit nursing, a career…

This Simple iMethod Eyeliner Stamp Is Perfection for Older Eyes

Are you “Cat Eyeliner Challenged“?  I sure am.  Even applying basic eyeliner has never been my strong suit.  You see, I’m strongly right handed.  Oh, I’ve learned to do a pretty good at-home manicure, but there is something about the eyes!  The one shot deal of it, of applying eyeliner, well it just really irks me and has always been a challenge for me.  Having older eyes has only made the…

Qure's Micro-Infusion Rejuvenating System

Recently, I stumbled upon this new at-home Qure system, which claims to treat “fine lines and wrinkles, rough texture, dark spots and dryness”.  And since 2024 is my year to try to do more in-home treatments to save money and see if regular skin care and science-backed products can really help as much as med-spa quicky treatments, or come close to what’s achieved there, I ordered the Qure system…

Truth Bomb about Covert Toxic Relationships

I’m on my second round.  Cared for my Mom off and on, over six years, until dementia took her.  She died in my home.  I did this because I loved her.  Because she ran out of money.  While making this sacrifice, the rest of my extended family enjoyed their lives, went on vacations, had “me” time.  Time for manis and pedis and so many other hobbies and pastimes.  In short, they enjoyed the good…

Is it too late to make 2024 Skin/Hair/Nail Care Goals? Answer: NEVER!

How is it Earth Day? Where did New Year’s go?  I’ve been playing catch-up, it seems, for the past few years….a story for another day.  But, slowly, I’m getting back the organized, goal-oriented, happy person back I once was.  A big part of my journey has been putting myself first and, to be blunt, getting rid of the people and things that make me feel like shit. I don’t know about you, but as my…

L'Oreal Panorama Mascara: Was It Worth the Impulse Buy?

So, how exactly is my minimalism, decluttering make-up project going?  Confession:  I had a slip this week and, guess what…I’m not sorry.  I went to Target to pick up a few things.  That little voice in my head snuck in:    “Go see what’s new.  Get your steps in.  It doesn’t hurt to look.  Anyway, you have plenty of make-up at home,  I doubt you’ll get anything.”  Then that evil voice keeps…

My new favorite Tarte product for aging lips

  I love the look of most make-up lines, but the frustrating part of aging is, you have to be VERY careful about what you buy.  Look at the ingredients y’all, to make sure they are either suitable, or helpful to aging skin.  The LAST thing you want to do is buy products that tug aggressively at your skin, cake up, or emphasize lines. More importantly, anything you put on your skin should be…

On Why Teeth and Lips Matter

1).  LIPS To all my older besties out there, you know that your lips are a major area that shows your age.  If you want to have the appearance of youth, you need to do a few important things to keep your lips plump and young looking.  Firstly, keep those babies hydrated, which boosts collagen and helps prevent wrinkles.  Yes, lips wrinkle too.  Of course, avoid too much sun exposure and do not…
