As I find myself heading toward the dreaded age of “50” I recall my days of youth. The thought of 50 was decades away but, to my surprise, saying good-bye to the 40’s isn't that bad after all! I’ve learned through the years who I am and how to feel comfortable in my skin. Now, as a wife, mom, and business owner; I know exactly how short the days can be and am continuing to cherish each moment and smile line.
However, I think at any age a woman should try to get up and fix up. I’m not the lady who lay’s in PJ’s all day. I just find myself feeling awful and unproductive. That’s why I say “get up, dress up and show up”! Not only will you look better but, you will feel better too. Coco Chanel said it best; “Every woman should never leave the house without fixing herself up a little, if only out of the politeness to others one never knows you may meet destiny that day.”
With that being said, I’m excited to share my first post as Ecru Elegance- “Momanista”. Here’s my Beauty Tip of the week!
BEAUTIFUL SKIN AT EVERY AGE:
You can never sleep in makeup or use too much moisturizer!
PRODUCT PREFERENCE:
Daily Moisturizer-
CHANEL- “Sublimage La Crème” is the only anti-aging cream that I can validate. This luxurious cream firms skin while leaving your face glowing and moisturized-but, be ready to pay for it. This life changing product is worth its weight in gold, totaling around $430.00 a bottle.
Makeup Remover-
I use “Ponds cold cream” to remove my makeup. While softly removing the day’s dirt, it thoroughly moisturizes the skin and at the low cost of $4.89 this fits in with everyone's budget.
Nightly Moisturizer-
I swear by Clinique- Turnaround Renewal. If you suffer from dark spots or sun damage, turnaround will "turn it around" for only $40.00.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
