She is in her late 40's. I also recommend Sugarpuffandfluff. She is in the UK, but I believe she is polish. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beauty-sites-for-the-over-50-crowd#post-1124928 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 22:35:33 +0000 Anonymous 1124928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've heard that this woman's <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.youtube.com/user/HotandFlashy/videos">makeup videos</a> are great.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beauty-sites-for-the-over-50-crowd#post-1124229 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 23:14:48 +0000 Anonymous 1124229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My experience is that one's body is constantly changing, so it's still lots of trial and error. Sensitivities and allergies pop up at any age. Hormones are a huge factor, involving more than just physical changes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beauty-sites-for-the-over-50-crowd#post-1124220 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 22:34:27 +0000 Trishalee 1124220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the vloggers on youtube. &nbsp; Wayne Goss, Jaclyn Hill and Makeup Geek are a few of my favorites. &nbsp;They are younger and therefore geared towards younger crowd but they have great tips and tricks. &nbsp;I have found their product suggestions to be spot on. &nbsp;I just have to tone down the looks based on my comfort level. &nbsp;For example, Jaclyn Hill has fair, dry skin, red/brown hair and green eyes (just like me only her 23 yr old self has no wrinkles). &nbsp; I can't wear the eyeliner and lashes like she does but her contour and highlight instructions work well for me. &nbsp;I also love that all of bloggers listed do reviews of both high end and drugstore makeup. &nbsp;Wayne just did a video on where to put your makeup dollars and great suggestions on &nbsp;what to save on. &nbsp;Check them out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beauty-sites-for-the-over-50-crowd#post-1124192 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 21:24:54 +0000 Lyn D. 1124192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Me too MRL.<br />I get great advice from here too- mainly affirmation that it is OK. to dress in an up-to-date way as a 50 plus. Even though I don't see many others IRL I can see them here 24/7 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beauty-sites-for-the-over-50-crowd#post-1124177 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 20:55:46 +0000 MRL 1124177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bookmarking some great sites.

I didn't know the skin changed as well as hair...</p> <p>Do you take enough iron? Anemia is common in older adults, especially women. I was diagnose with it last year, to my surprise. Then I've been taking the supplements and it changed a lot of things for me: skin rosier, better metabolism, hair + nails stronger, less hair loss, <u>more energy</u>,&nbsp;etc. I'd rule it out before anything else.&nbsp;</p> <p>I like this site:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.fabulousafter40.com/">http://www.fabulousafter40.com/</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/beauty-sites-for-the-over-50-crowd#post-1123995 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 12:09:24 +0000 deb 1123995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my favorite beauty site because she does not advertise nor promote.
