At our age, our opinions about makeup tend to fall into one of two categories. Some of us still love to play around with makeup and skin care. We may not want to look younger, but, we still feel like these products help us to look our best. Others are abandoning makeup in favor or a more natural look. These women want others to accept them just the way they are. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with either of these approaches, but, I still find the different perspectives fascinating. So, today, I’d like to ask you what you think about makeup at this stage in your life. Does it light you up? Or are you lightening up? Join us for a cup of tea (or coffee) and a chat.

When it comes to makeup and skincare for older women, does life imitate art? Or, does art imitate life? This is the question that I found myself pondering as I read Elise Marquam-Jahns’ article on ageism in the beauty industry. Are older women ignored in the beauty industry because most of us have deprioritized these kinds of products? Or, do we cease to care so much about what other people think because marketers aren’t presenting faces and personalities that we can relate to? I just recorded a video on this topic and I hope that you will share your opinion! Join us for a cup of tea (or coffee) and a chat. And, if you enjoy the show, please tell one friend about us today.
