OK BoomerGals, we’ve taken care of everyone else over the Holidays and this month of January, now it’s time to take care of ourselves.  How about a new lipstick, new makeup products, and new skin care regimen.  Let’s take time for us.

I just received my 20% discount coupon from Ulta, and with it I try to buy my more expensive items.  One I found several years ago and just adore is the IT Cosmetics makeup brand.  When you have a moment, you should read the history on the founder, Jamie Kern Lima.  Before founding IT, she was a contestant on the first season of Big Brother, nothing too noteworthy, but now they call her an American entrepreneur, and her story is truly an inspiration.  Her products are just amazing.  I have my sisters using them, along with my niece and a couple of best girl friends.  IT works so well because it hides any imperfections and keeps your skin healthy and smooth—a win-win for me.

I also stumbled upon Ulta’s Lipstick Ulta Beauty brand for $8.00.  How can you not stumble onto Ulta’s brand because it’s always in the area of the checkout (good marketing!).  It’s very good for aging lips, no feathering.  The matte is my everyday go-to.

Also, I discovered Perricone MD skin care products.  The one I like the best is the High Potency Amine Face Lift.  All you need is 15 minutes in the morning.  Place it on your most wrinkled areas and it helps to hide those wrinkles and blemishes before you apply your makeup.  Try it with your first cup of coffee or tea in the morning.  

I do hope you enjoy these products as much as I do.

Ulta’s 20% Winter Beauty is valid until February 1, 2020.  All you need to do is signup at Ulta for your in-store coupon.  

In this new year, let’s take some time for us.  We BoomerGals need to be kind to ourselves, even if it’s carving out 15 minutes here and there.  Over the coming weeks, I’ll be sharing a few beauty tricks and tips I’ve learned throughout the years.

Remember the comedian Billy Crystal and his famous line:

“IF YOU LOOK GOOD, YOU FEEL GOOD”
