Aging Gracefully... LOL, Just Kidding 🍷👓👵
16
items ⚡ As a 50-year-old woman, let me just say — aging gracefully is cute in theory... but in real life? It's a wild ride filled with power surges, random aches, and a LOT of laughing at myself. 😂 This board is for all my silver foxes who know that getti... #menopause #agewellwithme #sliverfoxesonly
Seriously, if you're anything like me and riding the wave of hot flashes — ahem, I mean "Power Surges" — this is a TOTAL must-have. I take it everywhere. No shame. Office? Yep. Family event? Absolutely. Bonus: during my Teams calls, it now looks like...
Desk Fan a.k.a. Hot Flashes life saver
Ok, hear me out, silver fox sister — this stuff is legit magic. I stash mine in the fridge, and when that “boil from the inside out” moment hits (you know the one 👀), I grab it and roll it all over my face like my life depends on it. Instant chill, ...
Gua Sha Set, Facial Roller Massager - Stay cool!

When I was young and beautiful, I could walk all day, play sports, and nothing hurt. Now that I'm only beautiful... even just sitting on the couch watching TV, I have to turn myself over like a rotisserie chicken so my hips don't start yelling at me....
Say bye to hip pain

At a certain age, using powder or heavy foundation basically turns my face into something that looks like cracked desert soil after a drought — with foundation settling into every fine line like it's trying to fill potholes. 🏜️😂 This foundation? To...
IT - Cracked desert skin, no more
Seriously, I love this one SO much. I absolutely hate going to the gym — like, hate it with a passion. Before 45, I was one of those awful people who could eat anything and never gain a pound... yeah, those days are long gone. 😂 Now, I fully underst...
Ring Fit Adventure - Fight Monsters and get in shape!

This stuff is pure gold. I love it! I not only use as a serum but also mix up with moisturizing and with my IT foundation. It does improve the appearance of the skin and is about ¼ the price of other fancy brands that have the exactly same ingredient...
Meet your new cosmetic bestie
Real talk: the older I get, the more I get why my mom (after four kids) would basically brace for impact every time she sneezed. 😂 So... this isn't really a recommendation — it’s more like a desperate "someone please tell me this works" situation. I...
Kegels: Sneezing Without Crossing Legs
Since you’re now thinking about the 8kg you’ll lose with Ring Fit, fair warning: you do need a Nintendo to play it. 🎮 And since you’re getting one anyway... you might as well grab a few more games to keep you moving (and they make for awesome family...
Nintendo Switch - Stay Fit and Nerdy
Ok — not gonna lie, this isn’t the exact brand I bought, but honestly? I figure they’re all pretty much the same. 🙃 If you want to feel extra comfy in your “experienced” skin, my next must-have is a silk pillowcase. They say it has all these benefit...
The pillowcase you did not know you needed
I found this moisturizing cream that’s made specifically for around the lips — it hydrates, softens, and actually helps with those sneaky little lines. 🙌 It’s a bit pricey, but honestly? It lasts forever. A little goes a long way, and I’m totally ob...
Who needs duck lips?
Not the cheapest product ever but worth every penny! This stuff is fantastic, indeed does what it says. Specifically for my mature skin. I got only 3 beauty products that are a bit more in the pricey range this is one of them - but it is neither supe...
Best exfoliant eveeerrrrrrrrrrrrr
Since the pandemic, I decided to stop dyeing my hair — especially after my husband had the audacity to say I looked "younger" when my hair was colored. 😂 That same week, I marched myself to the hairdresser... and bought this awesome conditioner that...
Pure Colour - Aging? Yes. Boring? Never

Yet another glamorous gift from the hormone fairy: rosacea. Because apparently, my skin woke up one day and chose rage. 🔥 This toner? Saved me. It’s like therapy for my face — calms the drama, evens things out, and lets me pretend I’ve got it all to...
The Toner That Ended My Skin’s Midlife Crisis
Look, I think my wrinkles are badges of honor — I’ve earned every single one of them with laughter, late nights, and real life. But hey, there’s also nothing wrong with trying to slow the clock a little, right? There’s no miracle cream that’ll turn b...
CeraVe retinol skin serum - Honest skin care, not sorcery
Does the same stuff a $100 eye cream would do for a quarter of the price. I have been using for a while now, ok… i think most of the results are a bit psychological but hey a girl has to look after herself.
Fighting Crow's feet
Alright, full disclosure: I’m a card-carrying skeptic, so I can’t believe I’m about to recommend tea. But as a proud nerd and lover of evidence, I also believe it’s perfectly sane to change your mind when the facts (or in this case, results) slap you... 👉 Just a heads-up: herbs do have active compounds, so this isn’t your average chamomile chill-out. Stick to the recommended amount (yes, you can overdo tea), and if you’ve got any health concerns, run it by your doctor first. Safety first, sparkle s...
