mix and match make up for mommas
I am a mom first for the vast majority of moments in each day. At any moment, the school could call and I need to go pick up the teenage, two-legged version of the flu. The youngest could walk up and wipe snot on whatever outfit I managed to drape myself with that morning. The middle one could have a meltdown and need a hug and wipe those tears on my cheek. My husband could come home and smooch the lipstick right off my lips.

I Tried Doing "Project Pan" for 4 Months
I was once someone who wore a full face of makeup every day and now I rarely wear makeup, maybe I'll wear a full face of makeup once a month to every two months. Now that I rarely wear makeup and look back at my collection, I have accumulated WAY too much makeup for one face. I can admit that in the past I bought into trends, collaborations with brands and artists I like and things with really cute packaging, things that made me feel great in the moment. Looking back, I'd say there's maybe 50% of products I either haven't used ever or very rarely touch, which looking at the bigger picture now seems very wasteful of my time, space and money. I hate wasting things and I knew I didn't want to throw out all of the products because of how much money I spent and I wanted get all the use out of my products so I knew I needed to find a solution. Then I discovered Project Pan.

How the Internet cured my lips
When I was young I would think it was because I’d been out in the sun too much, as I grew up in a coastal town in Australia my summers were spent at the beach or outdoors and my surfer cousins had the same dry, cracked lips so I would just shrug my shoulders and go on with my childhood never slapping any lip balm on them.

So, I chopped off the majority of my hair about 2 years ago. I remember just taking a pair of scissors and cutting off all of the string ends that would not curl.

Skin & Makeup Tips for Ladies Over 60
As a teenager I never had acne. My sister did, and disgustedly sighed stating that I had skin like a china doll, but it didn't take me long to take care of that, however, and that is why at age sixty seven I am dealing with age spots that make me look like a spotted dalmation, wrinkles beyond my years, and sagging skin.

DIY Gel Nails for the Girl who Sucks at Being a Girl
I suck at being a girl. No, like- I REALLY suck. I’ve never had a massage, or a facial, I get my blonde hair highlighted 3 times a year- which is basically unheard of, and the only time I’ve ever had my nails done at a salon was for my senior prom- almost EIGHT years ago (wow, i’m old now.)

New Services to Try at Your Beauty Salon
Going to the beauty salon is a great way to increase your self-confidence and practice self-care. When you feel proud of the way you look, you’re more likely to have a positive outlook on life. However, it’s easy to fall into a routine of ordering the same services at the salon. Perhaps you always have your hair straightened, or you only go in for a trim every few months. The next time you visit, ask about one of these services to take your self-care to the next level.
