I was recently contacted by Reviews.com about their latest tests to find the best sunscreens. I am not being compensated for this post, but if you purchase anything through links on this page I may receive a small percentage (enough to boost my spirits!) The bottom line is that I am sharing with you which sunscreens are the best for various purposes, such as:
Best Coverage
Best for Sensitive Skin
Best for Face, and
Best for Physical Activity.
Age doesn’t matter. We all want to get the best for our money. So it’s nice to have access to the results of products tested for the best, and to check reviews before buying.
We also need the sun for vitamin D. But it’s important to make sure we’re not overdoing it, so protection against too much sun is important for balance.
I especially love this review because the winning products are safe for sensitive skin, and contain natural and organic ingredients.
After researching 135 sunscreens, Reviews.com tested 20 products for coverage and skin feel and found four favorites.
The lady above indeed has elegant style. She is Joyce Carpati, one of the subjects of Ari Cohen’s “Advanced Style” blog, movie and books. She is proud to reveal that she is in her 80’s and going strong. Here, she shows how to carry a backpack in a sophisticated way. Age doesn’t matter.
I decided to cover this subject after a professional lady of a certain age criticized the style of backpacks as only fit for very young women. I thought to myself, “I like backpacks and would carry one myself from time to time. Why not?” Continue Reading
I have sensitive skin, so years ago I did an overhaul of my beauty products by getting rid of anything that was not hypoallergenic or pure and natural. I continued to use up the body products I already had, though, keeping them away from my sensitive face and decollete. As you can see in my “extra makeup” basket above, I was sticking with Almay and Physicians’ Formula and Burt’s Bees and natural makeup as much as possible. I figured I could still use whatever lipstick I wanted because my lips never broke out in a rash.
Then my husband alerted me that someone told him there was lead in lipstick. And recently on Facebook and Instagram, friends spoke up about it.
How could this be?!
So I did a spring cleaning of my lipsticks and threw out about 60% of them. Then I went online to find out what lipsticks had lead and which ones didn’t. I’m sharing my list with you (in three parts below).
My thinking is that age doesn’t matter. Whenever you start to improve your lifestyle, by becoming vigilant about the purity of your cosmetics or whatever, you can improve your health. You can get better and better all the time.
Now that spring has sprung (or at least begun), the countdown to the lazy hazy days of baring more body has begun. Age doesn’t matter. We’ll all be wanting to wear way less clothing in the hot, sunny days ahead. And really, we should all be getting our regular exercise, if not to get in shape then to improve our health!
The stores are aware of this, so every year they help motivate us to get to the gym with sales on athletic wear, running shoes and sneakers. March and April are the best time of year to buy these.
Sarah Jane Adams at MyWrinklesAreMyStripes on Instagram is partial to Adidas shoes and shows how to rock them in your 60’s or anytime you like. (See above.)
I looked at the sales on women’s sneakers, and they don’t just cover athletic shoes. There are some serious shoes and then there are some seriously awesome-looking shoes. You can get high-performance for the gym and some street cred, too.
Here are just a half dozen samples of what you can find right now:
Jeans are a basic classic item that goes with anything. Age doesn’t matter. I consider a pair of jeans to be essential to every wardrobe! But finding the perfect-fitting pair is the hard part. Here is some guidance to help you find the right jeans for you. Following are the most popular brands and fits, as well as a few things I have discovered during my own individual search for the best jeans.
