How I Look This Good at 50!

what are your best features

Although the title of this post sounds completely vain and self-serving, I’m actually just parroting the headline from a magazine I read last week:

Seems Nicole Kidman is also celebrating her Festival of 50 this year, and supposedly sharing her biggest beauty secret.

I don’t doubt Nic looks good, but I suspect there is no money or effort spared to make sure she does – and not just the slathering on of sun screen which she claims is her own secret weapon.

In real life, her beauty list probably includes all of the following (if not more!):

  1. Botox / cosmetic injectables;
  2. Hair dye;
  3. A professional brow artist;
  4. Personal makeup artist;
  5. A personal trainer;
  6. Lip fillers;
  7. Cheek fillers;
  8. Regular facials;
  9. A personal chef;
  10. And dietitian;
  11. Massage therapist;
  12. Expensive face creams;
  13. Porcelain veneers on her teeth;
  14. Cosmetic surgery;
  15. Personal hair stylist;
  16. Weekly manicures, and
  17. Pedicures;
  18. A stylist to put her “look” together for important events;
  19. Designer gowns and outfits, that are …
  20. Custom tailored to her figure;
  21. Shapewear;
  22. Eyelash extensions;
  23. A limitless budget;
  24. The best photographers; and
  25. Photoshop.

Whew, must be a fulltime job keeping up with all that.

Now, do you wanna know how *I* look this good at 50?!

I mostly credit my looks to:

  1. My smile;
  2. Cheerful personality;
  3. A little makeup;
  4. A good haircut and some blonde foils;
  5. Wearing colours and styles, that I know suit me;
  6. And finally, I try to look after myself, eating well, exercising, good dental hygiene – that sort of thing.

I know who I’d rather be, and it ain’t Nicole!

How do you look as good as you do (your age is irrelevant!)?!
