Empowered Women – Volume 4

March 20, 2019

For today’s Empowered Women post, I am introducing you to someone who I have “virtually known” for about eight years thanks to the world wide web. Erica and I originally got to know each other through the beauty community on Youtube and through our blogs. Erica has exquisite taste in home decor and I love her clothing choices as well. I think you’ll all love Erica as much as I do. Be sure to check out her social media links at the bottom of this post to keep in touch.
Erica Elia Empowered Women

Tell us a little bit about YOU:

I am a wife to an amazing man and a mom to 24 year old daughter that lives in Atlanta and a 17 year old son. I work full-time in the corporate world but in my free time I love working on my passion which is my Blog and Youtube Channel. I love the opportunity I have had to meet so many people in person and through the internet from all of the world. I love sharing home decor ideas to fashion finds.

Favorite Quote:

Do everything with so much love in your heart that you would never want to do it any other way. -Unknown

Biggest disappointment:

When you open yourself up to put your life out there in the social media world you will find that sometimes there are unkind people and at first I was very disappointed that this even existed but then I quickly learned that you can not let a very small group of people stop you from making a difference for a much larger group. You can not take someone’s actions personally and never let it stop you from going after your goals.

Favorite Piece of Advice:

I always share that you should never keep your nice things put up for a special occasion. Life is so special that every day is a special occasion and use your items often. You deserve it!

Favorite Collaboration:

I am currently pairing up with Loft and they are hosting a Meet and Greet in Atlanta on March 30th. I would love for you to join me and you can find out more details on my Instagram page.

How can we support you?

I would love to have you follow along on all of my platforms as I share and for you contribute in the comments to also help others with ideas and tips!

      She announced a few weeks ago that she wasn’t going to do it anymore and focus on her family instead. I believe I saw her post on instagram just today though. I’m certain she would message you if you sent her a message or email. Stacie xo

At 61 years old, I’ve never been able to consisten At 61 years old, I’ve never been able to consistently use a retinol product until now because I couldn’t handle the dry, irritated skin that I experienced when using them. #OlayPartner

@olay has this new Retinol 24 Starter that’s intentionally made for beginners and/or people with sensitive skin like me. I’m now able to get the “gold standard” benefits recommended by dermatologists with this gentler formula to help smooth fine lines and wrinkles, fade dark spots and improve texture.

It’s formulated with Pro-Retinol, Triple Collagen Peptide and Aloe Vera to reveal the smoother, brighter skin that’s been unreachable until now.

And if you’re a long-time user of retinol products, they have several stronger formulas that you can check out too.

New users and those of us with sensitive skin can conveniently purchase this gentler formula at our favorite retailers or online. Give it a try. I think you’ll be as impressed as I am.

Tell me in the comments the number one goal you want to achieve for your skin.

GRWM with clean beauty products — because looking GRWM with clean beauty products — because looking your best at any age isn’t about looking younger. It’s about looking like the best version of you.

At 61, I’m all about makeup that enhances my features, works well with mature skin, and still lets me look like me. I don’t want to hide behind my makeup, and I don’t think any of us need to. With the right products and techniques, makeup can simply bring out what’s already there.

I used all clean beauty makeup products to create a fresh, natural, polished look that feels good without feeling overdone.

If you’re a woman over 50—or 40, 60, or 70—and you’re looking for clean beauty, natural makeup for mature skin, makeup tips for mature skin, anti-aging makeup techniques, or natural-looking makeup that enhances instead of covers, this one is for you. ✨

Beauty doesn’t have an expiration date. Everyone deserves to feel comfortable and confident.💕

Save this GRWM for your next makeup day and tell me: do you prefer a natural makeup look or something a little more glam?

As a 61 year old woman who gets to try so many new As a 61 year old woman who gets to try so many new beauty and skincare products, these are some of my favorites over the last few weeks of the summer that I would repurchase again and only 1 fail.

As a matter of fact, I already repurchased the vitamins and prebiotics and probiotics supplement. I didn’t know Kourtney Kardashian was the owner of that brand. I only had 1 fail this time which was the terrible tasting creatine gummies. I don’t like stevia, but if you do then you may like with them. 

Thanks for being here! Don’t forget to like, comment, *repost, save and/or share this post to help my content get seen by a wider community. I appreciate your support so much and you never know who else might be looking for the very thing I’m sharing today. And don’t forget to let me know if you want the LINKS!

➡️ Please tell me one of your favorites
 or fails from this summer in the beauty and wellness category.🩷
