Beauty tips for a busy life from a makeup pro

Life definitely doesn't slow down after 40: You might be working and taking I care of kids (or parents, or both) or spread thin in other ways. Having had my third baby at 41, I know what it's like to juggle wanting to look one's best while handling a packed schedule. My makeup routine then consisted of throwing some on in the car at drop-off. That was the start of my learning how to make my changing skin look good in less time, which I have since perfected.

Now I am just as busy (if not more so!) and have a few more lines as evidence of living life. But after decades in the beauty industry, I have my routine down. Skincare is a key part of it: I never leave the house without SPF and eye cream to protect, hydrate, and plump my skin for a more youthful look.
