SKIN CARE and MAKEUP (for aging skin)
No hype; just good products
I have incredibly dry skin and winter in MI can be brutal on my skin barrier. I use EVOO as a face moisturizer and hair serum and don’t need anything else. It’s affordable and has clean ingredients. Can’t recommend enough!

Amazing option for maturing skin. I’m 50 and this is the only brand that works for me.
Laura Geller Beauty
Tried and true and so affordable. A+++
Cold Cream Facial Cleanser and Makeup Remover
Good all around moisturizer for dry skin. Get the tub over the pump for better results.
Moisturizing Cream
This is a fantastic night serum for maturing skin. Soaks in quickly and feels luxurious.
Advanced Night Repair Serum Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex
I love my Omnilux! I’ve seen marked improvement in my skin elasticity and reduction in dark spots on my face. It’s pricey but better than paying $$$ at a medical spa.

MATURE HAIR
This is a game changer if you have gray/silver hair. My hair is softer and more manageable, and I don’t need a bunch of other products to tame my unruly grays.
Purple Rain Shampoo Bar
The Shine and Care brush is worth every penny. Good quality and the grip is amazing. Buy it once and you’ll have it for the rest of your life.

This is an easy way to protect your hair while you’re sleeping - especially if you can’t/don’t want to sleep in a silk bonnet. I’ve seen less breakage and fall out since using these.
