Vanity About Vanity - Share Your Beauty Secrets and Fashion Tips
April 18, 2006

Posted on 04/18/2006 12:51:09 PM PDT by sweetliberty

Okay ladies...and self-proclaimed metrosexuals. I have never seen this topic on FR before, although I don't doubt that it has been here and I have just missed it. There are a lot of smart and attractive women on FR, and since we women put so much time, money and effort into how we look, doesn't it seem like a good idea to share what we've learned.

Do you shave or wax? Color your hair? Sun, salon or self tan? Where do you shop? What is your skin care routine and what do you use? What are you happy with and what do you want to change? Have you had...or would you have cosmetic surgery? Tatoos and piercings? What about diet and health tips? How do you choose your colors? Are you a jewelry fanatic? A clothes horse? Elegant or simple? Classy or cool? Lace or linen? Do you work out? Go dancing? Hike? Ride? Chase kids? What are your diet do's and don't's? What gets you motivated? What are your best features? Complete this sentence: "I hate my ...." Do you enjoy shopping...or hate it? What have you bought new for spring? The possibilities are endless....

no matter how much lipstick you put on a pig, it still looks like Hillary Clinton.

"Feed yourself like you'd feed company."

If I did that, I'd look like the Goodyear blimp!

"And drink lots of sweet tea, made the right way."

Even that has had to go on my "splurge" list.

consider it "over 50" advice.

I never go even to the grocery store without lipstick and a little mascara.

You never know who you'll meet at the grocery store.

I have run into the same acquaintance from high school twice in about 10 years. Both times I was wearing my "painting outfit": an old navy blue sweat suit covered in paint drips from every paining project I have worked on in the last 15 years. I'm sure I looked GREAT!!!

Sun, salon or self tan?

Natural sun, in moderation. The sun does incredible damage to the skin (especially the face) and starts premature aging.

Best beauty secret I have is water and tons of it. Great for teeth/bones and our whole body in general. H2O also helps to keep hair shiny and skin soft.

Thanks ;) Actually, I feel pretty good about figuring all this out by my 30's and being able to effectively model it to my 8 year old girl. She, BTW, is very clear on my "always leave something to the imagination" rule.

Or, in her words, don't show too much "boobage" or "buttage".
