Grow Old Gracefully...Be Natural
Nov 08 '00
I want to grow old gracefully. I do not want to saturate my face with all kinds of lotions, potions, makeup, etc. I wear makeup so that it complements my face. I do not overload any type of makeup so that my pores are not able to breathe.
I do not wash my face with soap, but do use noxzema for sensitive skin. I do not use "pancake makeup" because it is too heavy and just makes you look like a wax dummy. I prefer just a little pressed powder to match skintone. Then I apply a color blusher of mauve so that it complements not covers up my natural glow. I want to keep a youthful appearance and to do so, I believe in light on the makeup.
Letting my natural radiance come through is important to me. I do not want to look like a clown with thick, dark makeup. Thick and dark only makes you look older. Using a good moisturizer, (Ponds or Oil of Olay)every night also helps to keep your skin supple and naturally exuberant. Do not leave makeup on overnight; it should be removed nightly. Then, I use my Noxzema to cleanse my face. I feel really refreshed.
My skin has a healthy glow to it, and that is how my skin looks youthful. I am not a vain person, but I am happy with my skintone and that is because I use makeup to enhance not overdo.
