Beauty and a Book Giveaway

August 15, 2019

I’m so excited to be hosting the latest Fashion Flash Beauty and a Book Giveaway. This giveaway is one that’s not be missed because it’s for all women who are looking to better themselves both physically and mentally. For a little background information, Fashion Flash is an influencer/blogger group for women over 40. Each month we host giveaways that pair a book with beauty products. Follow the group on Instagram to see all of the fantastic giveaways going on at any given time.

Fashion Flash Giveaway

Each giveaway varies, but always includes a book. Other items may also include a beauty product, a gift card, a piece of jewelry and more. This month is a unique and fantastic giveaway in that I’m giving away a must have book, a workout dvd with a set of dumbbells AND a $50 Amazon gift card!

Love Your Age Book

About the book:

Love Your Age, The Small-Step Solution to a Better, Longer, Happier Life is the title of the book. The author is Barbara Hannah Grufferman. It is published by AARP and National Geographic and takes a holistic approach to aging well. The book is “filled with healthy habits to help you take charge of your life with wit, energy, and confidence, this inspiring guide will show you how to look, feel, and be your best in a busy, fast-paced world.”

The book is described as follows:

Warm, engaging, and user-friendly, this powerful, practical guide to aging gracefully will be an indispensable resource for anyone looking to live their best life. Featuring more than a hundred easy-to-adopt “small steps” — the foundation for ingrained habits that will yield longer, happier, and healthier years – this book will help enrich your life, from health and fitness to style, work and relationships. From checking in with your doctors to changing your fitness routine, cooling hot flashes, tackling social media and updating your wardrobe, transformation really does begin with one step – and Grufferman provides an easy formula for making and breaking the right habits. Packed with expert tips, myth busters, checklists, real-life anecdotes, and sage wisdom, this book offers a new approach to life after 40 that will inspire, rejuvenate, and energize.

Barbara Grufferman author

About the author:

The author of the book is Barbara Hannah Grufferman. She is an acclaimed advocate for positive living and healthy aging. She’s a regular contributor to AARP and HuffPost, where she offers actionable tips to live your best life. She appears regularly on national television and radio shows. She lives in New York City with her husband and daughters.

My thoughts:

You need to buy this book! As a woman over 50 years old, I find this book to be a nice little handbook or guidebook. Barbara talks about everything in this book including fitness, beauty, menopause, sex and so much more. You will feel enlightened, encouraged and refueled to take her “small steps” advice to live a healthier and happier life.

Slosh Weights workout

The second part of this giveaway will help you get your mind and body into top-top shape.

Slosh Weights Mind-Body Land & Aqua Workout is designed to tone your body and relax your mind. This workout program was developed by Mirabai Holland, a Certified Exercise Physiologist and Health Coach. Mirabai’s water filled hand weights workout uses the relaxing motion and sound of water for an easy full body toning workout on land. Use the weights empty with air for resistance to work out in the water. The dvd provides 2 workout videos in one. She follows the workouts with abdominal toning exercises and stretching for the muscles you worked out and meditation for stress reduction.

I’m sharing my Glow-Up Routine for Women Over 50 I’m sharing my Glow-Up Routine for Women Over 50 for a beautiful natural makeup look that enhances the beauty of mature skin and protects it from the sun. It’s makeup and skincare in one! I love a multitasker, don’t you?

What I used:
Universal Tinted Moisturizer: This is a lightweight tinted moisturizer with SPF 46 that gives sheer coverage and a natural glow. It nourishes and hydrates with hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, and a high concentration of niacinamide (vitamin B3). It blends out perfectly for all skin tones.

Luminous Eye Corrector: This product comes in 4 peachy shades to cancel out under eye circles and darkness. It stays all day, doesn’t crease and gives perfect coverage without looking cakey. It has mineral SPF 41 to protect that delicate skin under the eyes.

Lip Silk: Deeply hydrating lip color that’s formulated with Squalane, Meadowfoam, & Peptides to nourish and soften lips without bleeding into lip lines. Available in 2 shades Soft and Bold. It has mineral based SPF 40 to protect lips from the sun and also from blue light.

These are fantastic skincare products that make you feel good in your own skin & they’re linked in my profile!💫

The Costco parking lot is always so crowded and full, but a rainy day keeps lots of shoppers away so I could score a great parking spot right now.

I recently went to the Southlake, TX location of S I recently went to the Southlake, TX location of Skin Pharm for a little Dysport refresh with the incredible Rebekah.💖

I really appreciate her knowledge and skill, but what impresses me the most is the way she listens to my concerns about my aging skin and she does everything she can to help make me feel more confident.

She educated me on the latest products and treatments available and we decided together that Skinvive is something that I might want to try in the future. Have you heard of it? It purely for hydration and not for volume.

You can see my highlights with my previous treatments at Skin Pharm too.

Skin Pharm is a clinician-founded, female-led cosmetic dermatology practice with locations in several states including TX, GA, NC, SC and TN. 

Oh, and their skincare products are amazing! You can purchase them right from their website too! I highly recommend their cleansers, the eye sculpt cream, the Youth Serum and the new Face Whip.💫

✨Right now they’re running a special where you get FREE cleanser AND Crystal Clear with any treatment  through 5/30/25.✨

Book your appointment at @skinpharm asap so they can take care of you too!
