Welcome to the Baby Boomer Beauty Blog! This
is a gathering place to share easy, inexpensive, non-invasive ideas with each
other about “beauty” and how to continue to age gracefully, while feeling good
about how we look.
The reality is we cannot turn back the clock, and there is no product or magic elixir (at least that I know of!) that will do this. We all have different ideas about beauty, but I believe one of the most important factors in being beautiful is to be happy with ourselves. Real beauty has nothing to do with the wrinkles, weight, or the many other things that follow us into our senior years and we must always consider our whole person.
That said, of course we all still want to look our best on the outside, no matter how many years pass us by. I have no doubt that when I look at my pictures 10 years from now, I will naturally wish for these “younger” days”. But for now, I want to work with what I have and will resist these pesky signs of aging! So let’s get sharing!

Thank you Linda for this wonderful boomer gathering space you've created. You are such an inspiration. I love how your perspective on beauty and aging and how amazing you look! I am 44 and starting to see many of the changes you talk about in your blog. I have always suffered from acne but with hormones going crazy this is something that I've really struggled with over the last couple of years. At this stage in life its not only uncomfortable and embarrassing but incredibly frustrating. I have tried to remain positive about this dreaded beauty challenge and am treating my hypersensitive skin as gently as possible, but I would t hear from you and all the rest of the beautiful women out there fighting wrinkles and pimples at the same time, about what works and what I should stay away from! Thanks again.
