Sixty-nine,
wow! Well,
according to my birth certificate, I’m 69, but I don’t feel
the way a person my age is “expected” to feel and, I think
you’ll agree I don’t look it either. I’m full of energy,
very agile, and I have none of the joint pains so many people
my age suffer from.
Let
me remind you again, studies show we can control the way we
age, how we look and feel as we grow older. Only 30% of the
process is due to our genes, which means a whopping 70% is
controlled by lifestyle and environment. |

living proof that it works. You can control your aging
process. You can

yourself look and feel younger for the rest of your life.
People have asked me to
list what I do for my general health and beauty…
There
are some products I use regularly that help me maintain my youthful
appearance, even at age 69. I want to recommend five of them to you,
that, if you have not already tried them, you might, particularly
during “Birthday Month” when you get the 20% discount. And,
remember, they’re fully guaranteed with your money back if you’re
not happy, so you can’t lose. Here they are:

7 Instant Anti-Aging Tips
That Will Make You Look Younger Within One Hour!
Some things we do take
days…hours….weeks, even months, to help us appear younger looking.
Then there are certain things some of us go out of our way to do to
ourselves that make us look older. Here are some of those
things and how to correct them:
| 1. |
Have An Oily or Shiny
Face |
There is so
much said today about keeping the skin moist to keep it young…in
fact I “preach” that, too. But, I have seen more and more women
today “wearing” an oily or shiny face in public (luncheons, dinner
parties, work) because they believe it will keep their skin young
longer, and also, they think it looks good. Wrong. First of all you
don’t need to wear a shiny face to make or keep your skin
youthful. Secondly, A
shiny face actually makes your face look older because the shine
plays up the wrinkles or lines on the face. It exaggerates them. Any
light on a shiny face (day or night) makes lines, wrinkles, or
imperfections, more obvious and prominent. And…on top of everything
else…there is nothing pretty about an oily looking face (when
dressed) no matter how beautiful the face is.
Here is the answer
When dressing to go
out of the house here’s how to keep your skin moist while wearing
make-up, and make your skin appear younger, too. 1. Cleanse face and
neck and use an astringent to remove all oils and any residual
make-up. 2. Apply a good moisturizer. 3. Apply any make-up your
normal way. 4. “Powder down” to blend makeup colors and “take off
the shine.” Make sure you press the powder “down onto the skin”
instead of “wiping” the powder across the skin. The powder actually
locks in the moisture and helps protect and keep it from escaping
during the day. This also helps to protect your skin from the sun’s
rays. You now have the advantage of treating the skin while looking
younger at the same time. TRY THIS TEST: Before you apply powder,
stand sideways to a window while looking in a mirror and study your
face. Apply
powder. Return to the
window with the mirror to see the difference. If you see no
difference, you are very young with no lines!!

Iridescent, Odd or Bright Color Eye
Shadow |
(I
have written about this subject before but it bears repeating)
Anything bold,
unnatural, and overpowering on the face makes it appear older…and
worse yet – very unattractive – sometimes tacky! Bright iridescent
(or not so bright) eye shadow comes under this heading. Some
iridescent eye shadows are so bold and bright on the eyes they look
like two headlights. The manufactures should be fined for selling
such a thing to the public. The manufactures are after the dollar –
but I’m here to make sure you have your most youthful, beautiful
appearance. OK now that I have vented I’ll move on
(smile)!
Here is the
answer
No matter what shape
or size eyes you have, with the proper make-up, they will look more
youthful and beautiful. Remember, your eyes should steal the
show…not the eye shadow. Here are some simple rules: 1. Wear natural
colors. My favorite is a soft off- white or light tone eye shadow on
the lids and a brown or gray shade above the lids and a little above
the bone . (The off-white mostly blends into the eyelid skin after a
short time to give a natural look.) 2. Wear eyeliner to bring
out the eyes….never wear black – dark brown looks almost like black
yet gives a much softer look. 3. Wear mascara – black or brown is
fine. if you don’t have long thick lashes of your own – try
artificial eyelashes – brown only – no black. (You will need to trim
them down both in width and length and don’t buy the thick ones,
they will be too much when applied.) If not overdone, these lashes
can give a soft youthful look. Can you tell that I wear them most of
the time?? Even my manicurist of 3 years didn’t know it until I told
her.

Wearing Purple, Black or Orange
Lipstick |
These colors are aging
and distracting to the face in most cases, especially if they are on
the very dark side. Orange and black (purple/black) are never
flattering to the face.
Here is the
answer
Maybe a soft orange is
OK to fit a special garment color, but use a soft color orange if
you must…one with a little brown tone in it. Frankly I don’t own any
orange garments and no orange lipstick. Orange in general is usually
not as flattering to the face. If you must wear orange lipstick –
make sure your rouge color blends with the lipstick tone.
Apply colors
that have a little brownish tone. Red should have a little blue in
it so it does not look orange - it makes the red softer looking and
is more youthful and flattering to the face.
While on the
subject, if you want to give the appearance of fuller lips, extend
your lipstick or lipliner a bit above and below your natural lip
line. BUT, if you wear
a lip-gloss, make sure you apply it only within your natural lip
line, not on the extended portion. It’s more subtle and gives a
better effect…it should not be overdone. When you extend color over
your natural lip line, “powder down” over it so that it will look
more natural and blend in, otherwise the unnatural lip line will be
very noticeable.
Can you tell that I extend beyond my natural lip line?
Even if you have
bleached or tinted hair, straightened hair or sun dried hair there
are products on the market to get your hair back into shape. Dull,
dry hair gives an older look to your overall appearance.
Here’s the
answer
There are many
products on the market that can give the worst-case-dry-dull hair
what it needs to gain a youthful look again. Don’t take your dull
dry hair “as expected” just because you have had another birthday or
two…hair doesn’t know how old it is if you take care of it. I’m a
living example. (One of my products – Spot Light Conditioner is a
good product for this problem in most cases) If you have an
exceptional problem then see an expert and get it fixed…you will
love the more youthful and flattering look.
Going without
eye make-up is fine if that is the look you like. But I will tell
you that we look younger with some eye make-up. It gives an alive
look to our face as well as making us appear more glamorous.
Here’s the
answer
If you will look on my
list of Oleda’s Beauty/Health Tips in my Web site, you will find
“Make Eyes Large/Glamorous” with instructions on how to do it. You
can modify this for a softer look for day if you like by using less
or softer colors.

No Rouge, Too Little Rouge or Putting It
In The Wrong Place
|
Well here is one
of my problems – Often I worry about having on too much rouge, or
not enough. I often ask my husband to take a look at my rouge before
going out. Yes, sometimes I have to go back and “powder again” to
tone it down! There is a fine line on how much to have on. Another
problem some ladies have is WHERE to put it on the face. (That’s not
my problem!) All these issues can make you appear older and even
“tacky.”
Here’s the
answer
Did you know that
“Cream Rouge” gives you more control for evenness, smoothness and
the amount you put on? Never wear rouge with any kind of glitter or
shine. That really shows up lines or wrinkles and is overpowering to
the beauty of the skin, face and make-up. I would do you no favor if
I didn’t tell you about the perfect Oleda® Cream Rouge I developed
because it was impossible to find what I wanted in the stores.
Please click “Beauty” on the front page of my Web site. This one is
pure, not too oily, not too dry, natural colors and goes on
smoothly.
When using rouge, apply it
where the sun would make your face naturally rosy--except for the
nose, of course--across the cheekbones, somewhat over and under them
and tapered off toward the ears. Apply ever-so-little to the top of
the forehead and up to the hairline blending so it is hardly
noticeable. (You’ll marvel at what this does) Add a bit of color to
your neck to make it look like it belongs to your face…you now have
a beautiful natural looking glow.
If you feel you need
more rouge during the day use powder rouge. Keep the color a natural
tone with no glitter or shine.
Never underestimate the
beauty and health benefits, of good posture. Often poor posture is
just a bad habit that is easily corrected.
Poor posture not only
makes you look older, but could be the first step toward dowager’s
hump, double chin, potbelly, and swayback as well as some internal
problems too.
Here’s the
answer
To correct poor
posture we must be aware of our posture all of our waking hours for
a few days or weeks. Make a point to stand straight with shoulders
back…chin up not down. Now you are on your way to that glamorous,
healthy youthful look!
Ask your best friend,
your kids or husband to keep an eye on your posture and to let you
know when you are not standing straight. This can help you get out
of a bad habit. This may also help others in your life want to
correct their posture too. Please go to my Web site and click on
Oleda’s Beauty/Health Tips then “Youthful Look Destroyed.” You will
find more information with special exercises to help have better
posture permanently. Don’t forget to have good posture when you are
sitting for the very same reasons.
Let me know if you
have any questions.
