Saturday Show And Tell

Do you ever find something and you just have to share with your friends? Me Too!! 

That’s why today I am going to share with you a few things I have either just now realized, or found. One of my finds I am REALLY, REALLY excited about, keep reading!!!

First let’s start at the top!!

Hair

Did you know that you could put conditioner on your hair, leave it in over night, and wash it out the next day and Voila, you will have shiny, silky hair?

Me either!!

 

My hairdresser told me to do it, and boy am I glad she did, it is a great way to give your hair a silky boost. Plus, it is much cheaper than using Moroccan oil.

Just make sure you are using a good replenishing conditioner. I use Bain de Terre, and it smells heavenly.

Let's FACE IT!! 

FACE

I have a couple of things I have to share with you here. I found a night cream that I am seeing, and feeling wonderful results with my skin….

You will get $10 off your purchase if you are a new customer. Be sure, and read my other post on skincare products I love, you might see something else you might want!! HERE

Something else new to me that I am loving, is a new Brow defining cream. I was a bit reluctant because to be honest I was not unhappy with my Bare minerals brow powder.

I kept reading about brow defining creams and gels were the newest look for brows and much more natural looking. 

Since I was out of my powder I thought I would give it a try.Well, let me tell you, I am a new convert. 

It fills in my brows much better than the powder did with a much more natural look, and a very easy application. This is definitely a Go-to product for me now.

I use the lighter shade for my brows. I wish they had one color instead of the two, since I can’t use the darker for my brows, but I could use it as a liner.

Anyhow check it out, I think you will love. You can use the same link above for your $10 off.

Next and the one I am most excited about!!

I FINALLY FOUND A GOOD

MASCARA!!

Omgosh, I have been looking, and looking, and trying, and trying to find a mascara that did NOT clump, and that actually made my eyelashes look longer, and more voluminous. 

I don’t know about all of you, but  since I became a woman of a certain age, my lashes are thinner, and they even look shorter, but when I put this mascara on, it was like, “Oh there you are, where have you been oh lashes of mine?!”

They also offer a To-Go size for $10, great for your purse or if you just want to try it first. You can get it HERE!

Shall we get to the bottom of things?

  PANTS

Since it is Spring I have been on the hunt for a pair of yellow pants. I ordered two different pairs that did not work out as far as the color of yellow that actually arrived.

It is so hard to judge from one monitor to another. So if you know of any cute bright yellow pants around let me know.

However, I did find a couple pair of pants, one in a soft pink and the other in a cobalt blue. Both of which will go nicely in my wardrobe.

Talbots is having a sale on their regular priced pants, 20% off!!

Let me tell you, I have the hardest time finding pants to fit me. I have short legs, sturdy thighs and calves.

Let’s just say I won’t fall over if a big wind hits me.

Anyhow these fit, and stretch, and are extremely comfortable. 

I already have a pair of Kelly Green pants just like these so I am set. Now if I could just find my yellow pants!!

 Something To Think About!

  FASHION BLOG

One last thing, I love fashion, but to be honest have not found any blogs featuring women of a certain age that has a style sense close to my own.

Have you noticed they stop at the age of 50, when they do fashion, make-up or hair articles? 

What the heck, we are not in the ground yet! Sheeesh!!!

When I look at the over 50, or a woman of a certain age blogs, I find they are either dressing too trendy, trying to look young, or they dress like a Nana, and to be honest a bit frumpy.

 Oh then let’s not forget the character dressing, that is out there too. None of which is for me.

Frumpy is something I try very, very hard not to be. I know the clothing industry does not market to our demographic, but there are ways of putting classic pieces together with a touch of a trend now and again.

I have a blog for you!!! written by the beautiful Beth Djalali….

"Style At A Certain Age!"

She dresses classic with some trendy pieces now and again. 

She always carries fabulous purses and wears equally as fashionable shoes and belts. 

Her clothing proportions are spot on for her stature.(I think proportions are so over looked on most fashion blogs, and they are so important.)

I spent a great deal of time perusing her entire blog and I pinned away. You can see what I pinned here.

Be sure and check her blog out, and tell her Kathysue sent you!!! Leave a comment, fashion blogging takes a lot of time, give her a minute of yours. ;)

Now, go out and enjoy your beautiful first weekend of Spring. I plan on doing a lot of this….
