Reaching the age of 60 is a remarkable milestone filled with wisdom and experiences (and sometimes a bit of unwelcome gifts that’s included with aging). It’s also a time to embrace beauty care that aligns with your unique needs. Here’s your guide to maintaining ageless radiance at 60 and beyond.
Skincare
In my experience, most women at 60 want to begin with or continue a solid skincare routine. So let’s start here.
Embrace a Skincare Routine: A well-structured skincare routine is your best friend. Focus on gentle cleansing, hydrating, and protecting your skin from the sun’s rays. Specials serums with ingredients like hyaluronic acid and retinol can be transformative. My favorite skincare regimen for this group is our Defy line. To maintain your ageless radiance at 60, morning and evening consistency is crucial. This includes:
- Cleanser
- Exfoliator (1 -2 times weekly)
- Serum (optional, but highly recommended)
- Hydration
- Face Oil (optional, but provides much needed hydration and firmness)
- Sunscreen ( an absolute non-negotiable, use daytime only)
Don’t Forget Your Neck and Hands: Your neck and hands also show signs of aging. Extend your skincare routine to these areas. If you are not using the DEFY skincare, I strongly suggest including the a product designed for the chest and neck. Keep your hands hydrated. Use a hand cream that infused with sunscreen to prevent age spots.
Makeup
Embrace Makeup with Care: Use makeup to enhance your natural beauty. Opt for a lightweight foundation. Go completely ROYAL with your makeup routine. Not only is it the best makeup, but it is an extension to skincare. With royal color matching, ageless radiance at 60 is easily achieved.
Selfcare
Prioritize Self-Care: Self-care isn’t just about skincare; it’s about your overall well-being. Engage in activities that bring joy and relaxation to your life. Embrace massages, day spas, and DIY spa treatments. Add a HOME room spray for a relaxing ambiance.
Mindful Stress Management: Chronic stress can take a toll on your skin and your health. Practice stress-reduction techniques like meditation and mindfulness to keep your skin looking fresh.
Contact the Professionals: If your stress level becomes overwhelming (anxiety, depression, thoughts to harm yourself or others), reach out to your doctor or other medical professional.
Be Kind to Yourself: Aging is a beautiful journey. Embrace the wisdom and experience it brings. Maintain a positive self-image and exude confidence; it’s your most radiant accessory. Smile often. It brings out your beauty.
Diet
Hydration, Inside and Out: Drink plenty of water. Coffee and tea do not count. Here’s the rule: IF YOU WOULDN’T WASH YOUR CAR WITH IT, IT DOESN’T COUNT AS DRINKING WATER.
Focus on Nutrient-Rich Diet: A balanced diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals promotes healthy skin. Think fruits, vegetables, and foods high in omega-3 fatty acids for a radiant complexion. Consider salmon, walnuts, and flax for starters.
Exercise
Regular Exercise: Exercise is not only great for your health but also for your skin. It enhances blood flow and promotes a youthful glow. Include cardio, strengthening, balancing, and yoga stretching exercises in your routine to continue the ageless radiance at 60.
Just a Few Extras
Retire Harsh Cleansers: Gentle cleansers are kinder to your skin and your respiratory system. Avoid harsh, stripping cleansers that can lead to dryness and health problems. From dish and laundry detergents to micro-fiber cloths, I find doTerra’s Abode household products to be safe and effective. My preferred choice of household cleaners is OnGuard, but abode has a fine cleanser, too.
Regular Health Checkups: Your overall health significantly impacts your skin’s appearance. Regular checkups with healthcare professionals are essential.
