When did being over 40 need fixing?!

I'll be 52 next month and I have to say.....the older I get, the more aware I've become of something. The beauty industry wants us to fear aging. They want us to feel as though we need to erase our wrinkles, have a snatched jawline, fix our hooded eyelids and the list goes on! 

And yes, I recently fell for that narrative. I was on a podcast just last month and I when I watched the episode back, start noticed that my jawline wasn't as tight as it used to be and that my face was showing signs of aging. Well, of course it is....I'm not 25 any more!

Aging isn't something to fear and in fact, I believe we need to celebrate it. We need to appreciate the years we've lived. We need to appreciate the lines on our face because every line has been placed there through emotions we've shared with others. Those laugh lines are reminds of all the good times you've shared with people you love. And let's not dismiss the frown lines from worrying about those same people.

We don't need fixing, our hooded eyelids are perfectly fine as they are! 

As the Founder of my cosmetics company, I love being part of the beauty industry. Do I feel like changes need to be made? ABSOLUTELY and I'm on a mission to be part of the change, one face at a time.

Stay Luminous,
