Dear Yum Yucky: Do I Need Lotions and Potions to Make Me Look Younger?

I’m having another conversation with myself. I need to scan my brain cells for the answer. Why was I in Rite Aid pondering the purchase of age defying, trick lotions that cost $40? And then I thought, What the FRACK am I doing?

This is very stooopid.

Ya, I’m getting old(er). I’ll be 40 in less than three years. And ya, I’m noticing skin changes in my face, like a few age spots and fine lines here and there. If you don’t fall into the 30+ category, don’t click away, because once you get there, you’re body is gonna play big jokes that hit you real suddenly, like a face slap.

Hence, my situation right now.

She’s absolutely beautiful.

But I refuse to be in denial. I don’t look like I did when I was 20. And 15 years from now, I won’t look like I do today. But if you and I continue to take care of ourselves, we will STILL be beautiful anyway.

My beauty – and yours – will simply evolve and redefine itself to be beautiful in different ways. I don’t want magic tricks, plastic surgery or a ton of makeup to cover up my aging. I’m more interested in how to keep myself looking great naturally as I age grow in grace.

AGE GRACEFULLY ACTION PLAN

How can you stay vibrant and beautiful without surgery, expensive potions or caking on makeup?

In the absence of one or all of these, I get weirded out real fast. I get drained and moody, and completely off balance – no doubt that contributes to the aging process. There’s lots of scientific evidence to prove what I’m saying. Just Google any one of my action plan items and do some investigative reading for proof.

So this is my action plan and I’m sticking to it.

How do YOU plan to age beautifully without lotions and potions?
