As we all know, changing hormones have an effect on our skin. It starts with adolescence and puberty, then the lovely cycling of menstruation, and later in life, perimenopause and menopause. Fluctuations in our hormone levels can mean too much oil, too little oil, reactionary sensitive skin, and so on and so on. You…
Yes, it’s true, I am a post menopausal woman. Well, I think I am, for the most part. I had a partial hysterectomy in my early forties, so while I still have my ovaries, my period stopped years ago so I don’t have that to help gauge where my cycle is. I’ve had blood…
I’ve been testing a new hyaluronic acid serum from Vichy and it’s official. I’m in love. Vichy’s newest serum, Mineral 89, is a fortifying and hydrating daily skin booster that’s loaded with hyaluronic acid. Everyone needs a hyaluronic serum in their routine, and if you are anything like me, and I know many of you…
I recently had the chance to speak with Dr Vivien Brown, a family physician who has won awards for her work regarding women’s health issues.

Why “sexy” you say? Because sunburnt skin is so NOT sexy, but soft, warm and glowy skin is. It makes you feel good, and feeling good is ninety nine percent of being sexy. I abused the sun in my youth, wearing the likes of baby oil and the ubiquitous Hawaiian Tropic Dark Tanning Oil –…
You probably know by now that I am a huge fan of Vichy skincare. It soothes, beautifies, and generally makes everything better. I need to state again how much I love their Serum 10 for Eyes & Lashes. I see results, as I do with all Vichy products. They deliver on their promises. Vichy Serum…
Summer is here! Yipeeee! If you’re like me, you couldn’t be happier to peel off the layers and bask in the heat and sometimes, the sun. Not on purpose, other than to dry off after swimming, as that feels heavenly and healing. Just getting around in our day to day lives exposes us to enough…
I thought I would share two items I am LOVING right now. These are items that have earned permanent spots in my collection for one simple reason – the reason anything becomes something I can’t be without – they work. Vichy LiftActiv Serum 10 Eyes & Lashes is a new product in the LiftActiv line,…
