Need tips

bobeck_mimi2Usually I post recipes and tips here but now I need some tips. I’m getting older (55) and wrinkles are invading my face. Can anyone recommend the best eye cream to keep them at bay? I also need to know the best kind of makeup for older skin. My foundation creeps into the wrinkles and makes them look worse.

The wrinkles aren’t really deep but makeup makes the look like the grand canyon. I don’t want to look like some of these elderly women who put on makeup and end up looking like a group of clowns (like the picture above). I need a good moisturizer and don’t know the best kind to buy for my skin.

I need a makeover from someone who knows older skin…. HELP!!!

Good skin

I’ve been fairly lucky with my skin. I’ve only had a zit or two here and there and never had to use an acne treatment on my face. I usually get a zit on my chin or by my nose once in awhile. I never had any as a teenager but I get them now that I’m older. I really don’t understand why that is.

One of my co-workers has acne so bad that she wears very heavy makeup to cover it up. She’s constantly re-applying it to keep her “flaws” covered. She’s a very vain person, but that doesn’t make her a bad person. I couldn’t wear that much makeup. In fact I rarely wear any makeup at at all. I just can’t be bothered fussing for so long to get it right every morning. I’m at the stage in my life where I feel “if you don’t like how I look then don’t look at me!”.
