Our Secrets To Fabulous Skin After 50..
Friday 5th June 2020
Virtually every woman has a girlhood memory of a stunning woman with Fabulous Skin who became her barometer for beauty. Perhaps it was her mother, always chic and ever so pulled together every time she stepped out of the house. Maybe it was a favorite aunt, the one who was a little bit wild but always wonderful, the one who was striking even in the way she draped a scarf or tilted a hat. It could even have been a much-loved teacher, the scent of whose fragrance today immediately transports you back to her classroom and the warm ambience created there. Whoever she was, her sense of style was her beauty, leaving an indelible mark on that young girl who was awed by her.
The fact is that the mélange of factors that makes each woman beautiful is quite distinctive, an inimitable combination of nature and nurture that produces style. The commonality is in the upkeep, if you will, the little secrets women know that augment their beauty. It all begins with great skin. Indeed, if Coco Chanel was right in saying, "Nature gives you the face you have at 20. But at 50 you get the face you deserve," beautiful women know that caring for their skin from the outset gives them a face they are proud to have at 50.
Here are our top seven tips for 50 & Fabulous:
Become an enemy of the sun.
The moral of the story is that avoiding the sun as well as sunbeds protects the health and beauty of your skin and may well save your life.
Fight acne.
Consult a skin specialist to target and treat your acne and prevent/slow down the signs scarring.
Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize.
We reccomend Moisturizing at least twice a day at the end of your skincare routine.Moisturizing nourishes your skin, retaining the moisture on the skin's surface while drinking water provides both the cleansing and the moistness that is enhanced by moisturizing.
Never sleep in make-up.
Drink plenty of water.
Cleansing your skin from the inside out, drinking water removes toxins, creating a clear, dewy effect on your skin.
Befriend Retinols - We have a large range of retinols within our Meidk8 range from those who have never used retionols to the experienced users.
Retinol encourages the turnover of skins cells, tightening pores and boosting collagen production, giving skin a firmer, more youthful appearance. The caveat is that retinol should only be used at night as it immediately makes skin more sensitive to the sun.
Love your imperfections.
once you have done all that you know how to do to maintain your health and beauty, relax and be at peace with yourself. Learn to look in the mirror and love your reflection. Those minor imperfections are what make you uniquely "you," adding character and incomparable beauty to your face. Speak words of love to yourself, imperfections and all.
