Today's blog is about avoiding makeup mistakes that can you make look old and old fashioned ! avoiding anti-anti-ageing makeup mistakes! No doubt you have read in numerous magazines that you need to keep makeup updated to stay looking fresh and youthful. Sadly, too many women are still rocking, (or not), the look they wore when they were eighteen. It just doesn’t work! If you don't believe me, dig out a photo of you when you were 18. (Post it in the comments section if you want to share!). Now be honest do you want to replicate that look right now? To avoid making ourselves look older we need to take heed of a few make-up artist tips………... 1.        Do not overpluck your eyebrows. Thin brows make us look hard which in turn is ageing. A lovely full shaped brow is the answer fo...

H e y there everyone! How are you today? Hope everything is great in your life and that you are embracing the over 50 life! Today's blog is about sex and the menopause . For some reason society speaks in hushed tones about women and sex after 50 as if we are written off. Conversely guys are still portrayed as studs! I have decided to address this right now! Women over 50 are sexy and sexual!   I know from research and girlfriend conversations that menopausal and post menopausal women have worries and questions about their sex lives so I have written this to help you out. Hopefully you will discover some great news and learn that you are "normal"! As we approach the menopause, hit it and sail past it, our oestrogen levels have dropped quite significantly to when were in our 20s and 30s. The dropping of this hormone can have some side effects as we are probably quite well aware. These can include myriad symptoms like hot flushes, irritability etc. It also has an ...

Helloooooooo! I hope today you are well and happy! Today we are looking at how we can truly embrace mid-life! To find out more, read on ! Here are 10 no messing hot tips to make sure you embrace mid - life and way beyond! 1. Don't think of menopause as an illness! It's normal and natural. Women go through the menopause...simple! Viewing the menopause as a positive stage of our lives can make the whole experience far easier.  If you think about the fact that we aren't losing anything - well apart from periods and boy!, in my humble opinion that can only be a good thing, we are in act being freed from the monthly drudgery and all it entails! Many non -western cultures see the menopause as a very positive state of a woman's life, and they report far less menopausal symptoms than western women! Take note!!! 2. Find a passion - get interested! Frequently as we go through this transitional period in life our daily life changes too. If we have children th...
