Today, We took on a topic we hope we're doing. Only those that know us in real life could really say if we are. Aging Gracefully is something I (Ellyn) decided to do in my 30s. I decided not to try to fight the clock and color my hair or fill my wrinkles. Those were well earned signs that I had made it in life. Some are denied the privilege of age. I wasn't going to fight the signs of it.
We discussed a few trends in anti-aging and our thoughts about them. We also discussed the disturbing trend toward younger and younger women embracing surgeries and extreme measures to try to stay looking young.
Have you heard our discussion on skin care. Lauren, our resident skin care expert, gave us all the tips and tricks on taking care of our skin. Listen to that HERE.
Music is by Oliver Massa. It is called Weekend Chores
