From the Publisher:
By Bobbi Brown with Marie Clare Katigbak
Bobbi Brown began the trend toward natural-looking cosmetics with a simple philosophy: Women want to look and feel like themselves, only prettier and more confident. Today, top editors at elite fashion magazines--including In Style, Vogue, Allure, and Harpers Bazaar--revere her, and celebrities and millions of regular women throughout the world swear by her beauty advice. Now Bobbi Brown has written THE book redefining beauty for women over 40, BOBBI BROWN LIVING BEAUTY. In this refreshing look at beauty and aging, Bobbi offers specific makeup tricks for a stunning face--showing how makeup can solve most of the flaws that many women go under the knife to fix. In fact, the right makeup can create an even skin tone, lift the cheeks, plump a smile...even take years off any woman's face. The key is to use makeup to enhance each woman's best features and showcase her natural beauty. With step-by-step makeup instructions and quotes from beautiful women like Marcia Gay Harden, Vera Wang, Susan Sarandon, and Lorraine Bracco, Bobbi Browns natural, celebratory approach to aging will enlighten and inspire women everywhere.

I really don't have any beauty secrets - that's why I need this book. I guess I'll say use moisturizer. milou2ster(at)gmail.com
Wear sunscreen every single day, even if it isn't sunny. You'll prevent tons of sun damage this way. And if you must tan, please fake bake!
Sunblock & hats

Pare down your beauty supply to just those items that make you feel great about yourself. As much as you want that bronzer to work on you (because it makes Gisele Bundchen look fabulous), if it makes you look like sweet potato pie, then make peace with it, and toss it.

Drink plenty of fluids and cleanse and moisturize morning and evening.
Have a well balanced diet and include 3 to 5 servings of fruit and vegetables a day. Insuffient nutrients will cause many medical problems.
I just started using supercold water to rinse the conditioner out of my hair. It's hard to stand the chill at first, but the supershiny hair is totally worth it. Thanks!!! :)
I follow you now! Thanks! :)
I have very dry skin, so I use honey to wash my face. I did a lot of research on this natural gem and I find that my face is so hydrated and glowing when I use it. Who would have thought?

My favorite makeup tip is less is more. After appling my makeup (foundation & blush) I go over all with a cotton pad and remove and blend to make my complection look more natural. Thanks!
Wear sunscreen!
Apply moisturizer just after your morning shower while your pores are still open. Try smoothing on a light moisturizer with a fruity scent after you towel dry and you'll feel fabulous.
When using mascara, I usually swipe it with a tissue so that I don't get clumps. Thanks!
Brighten up your wardrobe and your makeup, it's Spring! With so many light colors available, cast off the dark shades of winter and enjoy!

When you get older it is important to keep your lips where they belong! I wear makeup around mine then apply lipstick with a brush. That beats nothing!

ms.lilyk@gmail.com
My tip is: Smile. Your whole look is ruined if you walk around like a grump. Smile lines are more attractive than frown lines anyway!
Eat right and Hydrate! Good nutrition helps the body repair skin. Drinking lots of water helps hydrate skin from the inside out.
I only use mascara on my top lashes so my undereye area doesn't look dark.
Run your toothbrush very lightly across your lips once in awhile...it will keep them smooth and chap free!
