Spotless Aging
While I am on the beach, my coworker and friend Beth Longware Duff has written a blog entry for us. Beth is a medical writer with NewImage.com and has written for many mewspapers and magazines. She has won awards for her medical writing, including the American Cancer Society Media Award. — Valerie
I’ve reached that stage in life (just north of 50) where I’ve begun to notice that some of the changes associated with – dare I say it? – aging are manifesting themselves in and on me. Now, I can deal with a little stiffness in the morning, I’ve adapted fairly well to bifocal lenses, and I’m working on that dab of middle age spread that’s made itself at home in my midsection. But nobody warned me about age spots! I mean, where did those come from?
My Hat and I Head for the Beach
I am about to go on vacation. I will be spending a week lying on a beach on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, surrounded by family members. I can’t wait. This is the third year in a row that we have had a family reunion in North Carolina, with my brothers and sister and their kids and their kids’ kids coming in from four states. The past two years, it was 10 adults and 5 kids, all in one large house. This year, it will be 13 adults and 5 kids, all in one house. No one in my family is a bad cook and we take turns making dinner. We decided the first year that we did this that if nothing we did made the national news the vacation would be considered a success. I have a large, loving, loud, and rowdy extended family. Our family reunions have registered on the Richter scale in the past.

Yes, I camped out in Geneva Airport for Anthelios!
Unfortunately we had yet another layover this year at the Geneva Airport coming back from our B.A.S.E. trip. Last year we slept in front of a little handbag boutique, but this year that spot was taken by another victim of a layover. SO! I chose the pharmacy about 30 yards away because lo and behold there was an Athelios 50+ sunblock display gleaming in the window!! Naturally, I camped out in front to bask in all its glory while I waited for it to open the next morning to buy a few tubes before my flight. They were on sale for $30.50 for the 100 ml tubes of Anthelios XL 50+ SCORE! I bought two!
Wrinkle Smoothers Creams: How Do they Work and How Long Do They Last?
The joy of instant gratification is the enemy of patience. Unfortunately you can’t get the pay-off without the work, especially when it comes to beauty (unless, of course, you’re Jessica Alba). So when you see “instant face lift” or “timeless beauty in a bottle” – you may cringe like me because you know you are considering forking over $50 for yet another cream that will get pushed to the back of your cabinet. But do some work as they claim??
Kinerase Skin Care
Out of all the skincare products out there, it is difficult to know what works and what does not. Plus, to determine what works for us as individuals, we need to try the products ourselves, for at least 3 months or more. Fortunately there are products which work faster than that.
