What's Up with my Skin? Menopause? NO.....?
Ok, Ok, Ok, I know i have been very naughty and I have been slacking on the video's and blogs...Since i last posted a blog, or done a video, I have been working at a salon as a makeup artist, my hours are long and by the time i get home I'm pooped. But no more excuses...i am really going to work hard at doing more and sharing some of my best beauty tips and products.
For starters, nothing has been working for me lately. I have entered a new phase of life....menopause..I know right, I'm too young. Well I think so anyway. I have been dealing with oily skin then dry skin, acne..yuck. This is something I have NEVER dealt with, along with some of my hair falling out..yada yada yada....
Anyway, is it just me, or does this totally suck. I started to hate makeup. Nothing looked right, my "holy grail" go-to's were now, crap....everything failed me.
I changed up my skincare, vitamins, makeup and still nothing is helping. So it is very discouraging to buy anything new, although that hasnt set me back...lol... but im in such a rut.
This is what i am currently using to try to defuse the problems:
Cetaphil cleanser with baking soda
Apple cider vinegar for a toner switched with witch hazel
CeraVe lotion for day and night
I was using a number of things in combination all the time, to test and try new products, but then stopped thinking that it might be something i was using....maybe someone out there has some suggestions?
If you do please let me know

Brighten your look for Spring is easy, even us in the 40+ bracket, which we glow naturally of course, but a couple things to try to look years younger, and better,
as we age evening out or skin is important start with a plumping moisturizer to prep skin, use a pink based concealer to brighten under the eye, or a yellow based always one color lighter then your skin tone...to pop your look need a pink blush on the apples of the cheeks, cream is the best. Please don't be afraid of color ladies, this will make a huge difference trust me. Eyebrows are huge using a brow brush and brown shadow, or a color to match your hair color, fill in our sparse hairs...using a rose pink/hot pink gloss to match your skin tone; gloss gives you a dewy and plumping look, its all about looking natural not overdone.
