You are Beautiful
In case no one has told you today, you
are beautiful. Beauty can be intimidating
and something that can be diffi cult to see
in ourselves.
And when we do recognize beauty in
ourselves, it often comes with harsh stereo-
types and external pressures to maintain it.
This is important for your self-esteem, of
course, but also for your health. Here are
some successful, beautiful women and
what they have to say about beauty.
“Beauty is when
you can appreciate
yourself. When you
love yourself, that’s
when you’re most
beautiful.”
— Zoe Kravitz
“While bangs don’t
look good on ev-
eryone, confi dence
does.”
— Lauren Conrad
“No one can make
you feel inferior
without your con-
sent.”
— Eleanor Roosevelt

A Beauty
Regimen for
Every Age
As you age, your skin changes, and your beauty
routine should, too. But most people stick with
the same routine they’ve been practicing since
high school, hoping for the same results.
Here’s how to put your best face
forward at every age.
PRESERVE AND PROTECT
Your teens and 20s should be all about preserv-
ing the assets of youth with your skin care regimen.
Acne may be an issue, and scars should be treated
promptly. Start with a good foaming cleanser and
a moisturizer with SPF. Add a spot treatment or
an intense night serum for moisturizing. If acne is
more than just the occasional breakout or is large
and painful, a trip to the dermatologist might be in
order.
EXFOLIATE AND REPAIR
As you near the end of 30s, your skin is no longer
exfoliating naturally as often as it once did – about
once a month as opposed to the every two weeks
it exfoliated in your teens and 20s. It may be time
to switch to a gentle exfoliating cleanser or use an
exfoliating mask once a week.
If you are lucky enough to avoid fi ne lines around
your eyes in your 30s, they will most certainly fi nd
you in your 40s. Give your eyes an extra surge of
hydration with a good eye cream.

MOISTURIZE
As you reach your 50s, the most important thing
you can do for your skin is give it the moisture it no
longer produces on its own. As we reach our senior
years, we are even more prone to dryness. In fact,
the most common skin conditions and skin infec-
tions affecting the elderly start with severely dry
skin. If you haven’t already, it’s time to switch to a
nonfoaming cleanser, as well as a retinoid and pep-
tide-rich serum. Look for moisturizers with hyaluronic
acid in them. And, as always, consult your dermatol-
ogist for proper treatments for problem areas.
