Let's talk self care! As we get older, ensuring that we are happy and healthy is more important than worrying about fine lines and wrinkles. That must come first. Laughing more, surrounding yourself with positive people, getting a good night's rest, doing things that bring you joy, spending time with loved ones, embracing the present moment...that is self care!
Self care is also in the reduction of things that do not serve us, like stress, unnecessary strain, toxins, like harsh chemicals in our household cleaners, and things we know are just plain deadly to use, like smoking.
Once we've crafted a life we truly love, we can spend time focusing on all the fabulously fun extras, like skin care and makeup. As you will know, our skin changes as we age, so our skin care and makeup routine must evolve too.
Allow me to share all of my very best beauty tips for aging skin, from makeup application to skin care non-negotiables!

Pauline's tips: (age 60)
Each time you sleep with your makeup on, you age a year! After cleansing, use a rose toner; the residue you find even after cleansing is surprising.
After makeup, use a setting spray for a glowy appearance & refreshed feel. Setting sprays make your makeup last all day.
