What We Learned About Your Adult Acne
It’s always enlightening to learn what other women in our generation are thinking and doing. Most every Thursday, FabOverFifty asks members of our community a series of simple questions about pretty complex issues (and some not so complex issues), then we report the results back to you!
THIS WEEK, WE’RE CURIOUS ABOUT WHETHER YOU, OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW, HAS HAD EXPERIENCE WITH ACNE.

nügg beauty, known as the “Face Mask Authority,” makes affordable single-use face masks to help transform your unique skin.
Each of the seven masks in the nügg beauty collection is formulated for a specific need.
After beating breast cancer, Meryl Marshall’s skin was “ultra-sensitive” and reacting to all kinds of makeup and skincare products, so she began the journey of extensively researching the safety of the food she ate, the cleaning products she used for my home, and the products she used on her body.”
I was shocked to learn that many of the products I used were potentially harmful to myself and my family. Even some natural products will trigger a negative reaction, since my skin now is ultra sensitive,” Meryl said.
Following years of research, Meryl partnered with beauty chemists and launched Hynt Beauty, which offers luxurious color and skincare lines that are “free of all ingredients known to be, or are questioned to be, harmful and irritable for the skin and body,” she claims.
FOF talked to Meryl to learn about her research and what gives Hynt Beauty an edge in the market. (more…)

If sagging jowls, fine lines around your mouth, and crows feet next to your eyes are bugging you every time you glance in the mirror, it’s probably time to take advantage of one of the beauty industry’s innovative, new facial rejuvenation technologies.
And we mean innovative, as in advanced and powerful, not just some marketing jargon slapped on a fancy jar of cream that promises to make you the “star” of your own version of the movie Benjamin Button. (more…)
While 84% of women, 45+, color their hair, according to a recent FabOverFifty poll of 1,100 women, 64% of them do it to cover their gray.
If you’re one of them, chances are, you visit the salon more often than you’d like because your pesky gray roots seem to pop up two days after you have your hair colored.
Fortunately, one of our favorite beauty brands, Gray Away, has recently introduced root touch-up magnetic powder. It’s a snap to apply and beautifully covers your gray roots, so you can extend the time between your salon visits or at-home colorings.
The powder comes in three shades: Black/Dark Brown, Light Brown and Lightest Brown/Medium Blonde. A sponge applicator is included to apply the powder to clean and dry hair. The powder self-adjusts to your particular hair color, and blends in beautifully. The container, with the sponge in its bottom section, is compact and perfect to take when you’re on-the-go. The powder isn’t dusty and will wash out easily when you shampoo. For only $10, it will be your new BFF, and your gray roots’ worst enemy! (more…)
One of the beauties of aging is learning to figure yourself out. Maybe you wore mini skirts, shoulder pads and big hair in the 80s because everyone else did. But today, your style is your own, and you love it!
Perhaps you’ve let your hair go gray, you don’t wear a stitch of makeup, and your go-to pieces are jeans and white shirts. Or, you adore the auburn hair color you use, the creamy blush and lipstick you discovered last year, and your closet full of sweaters and skirts.
Bah humbug to “growing old gracefully,” whatever that means, anyway. Grow old however YOU want. And let your sisters grow old just the way THEY WANT, too.
LET US KNOW HOW YOU’RE DOING IT,
BY ANSWERING THE ANONYMOUS QUESTIONS BELOW. (more…)
Ask a group of dermatologists for tips on the most effective ways to wash your face, and you’ll likely get a spectrum of opinions. Some swear soap is a no-no for anyone; others say it’s fine for certain complexions. Some say we should use a cleanser only at night, water only in the morning. Others say it’s perfectly fine to apply cleanser in the morning and at night.
The texture and appearance of our skin are as different as our personalities. Betsy has dry, rough skin. Sally’s is smooth and sensitive. And Nancy’s skin is overly oily. So, each woman should choose a cleansing product that works most effectively on her type of complexion. The mind-boggling number of products on the market, however, often makes it impossible to know which one will actually suit us best. (more…)
