Great skin, lovely makeup, and clothes equal the new woman 60 and over. You will want to watch this video! Makeup, skincare..attitude, and a newfound identity. But what has changed? Why is 70 the new 50? Let's dive deep and see if we can get some answers!
A long walk by the river, some new makeup, and a chat with my neighbor who is 90 changed how I see my entire life, past and present. I can't wait to share this with you.
August 19th - 1920 - Women got the right to vote in the US. This has new meaning for me now and I hope you will relate to their struggle and triumph as I did.
Thank you for being here...you always lift me up and remind me how precious every day we live is.
Be kind to yourself...truly kind to yourself.
My Love to you always,
Susan & Desi

Even at age 53, dealing with terminal cancer and feeling pretty crappy most days, I still wear my pearl necklace every day, put on my lipstick and now wear a chic wig. It really does make me feel better and gives a confidence and even hope. It's always fun to dress up a little. I'm so glad I can have fun with makeup and now wigs! Love your glow, inside and out :)

I’m having a difficult week. Most people will probably think I’m just being weak and kinda pathetic. But these emotions are very real to me. My husband is in Vietnam with our daughter, traveling there to show her where her father came from. She knows the story of how her father escaped communist Vietnam and how he found freedom in the United States. But now she gets to see this foreign land. I’m happy for them both. But I’m feeling very alone and quite sad. My health isn’t great right now. And one of my little dogs may be seriously ill as she is old and showing symptoms that could be heart failure. Oh how I hope this isn’t the case. She’s my favorite dog ever, my Wendy. Thank you to anyone reading my comment. This feels like a safe place to share.💞

Do some reading or spend some time on a hobby you like, or start a new one and the time will go by. You can discover new things about yourself as well.

Hi! I am so sorry you are having health challenges, and your Wendy may be ill. I can relate. I am not in the greatest health, and I lost my dog Tiffany many years ago, but the impact it made feels like yesterday. The only thing that got me through is my deep belief in God. I pray to him several times a day for strength and courage. He always has my back. If you have a religion that you practice, pray to your god. He will help you in so many ways. I will pray for you, Wendy, and your family. God's blessings to you always. ❤️🙏

I am also 69 and will be 70 in November. I had let my hair go gray for about four years and after losing my husband, the stress of everything I felt like I just aged 10 years and I just recently went back to coloring my hair and it’s giving me a new lease on life. I feel better about myself. I’ve had people tell me they don’t believe my age. Call me a young widow and I am just starting to feel like myself again. Getting back into make up which I really wasn’t wearing much of caring for my husband, but I am taking care of myself now I may be 69 but I’m still alive and I have to enjoy myself while I’m here. I’ve made some friends. I’ve been going out for dinner with people and I’m socializing. It will be a year the end of this month that I lost my husband, so it basically took me almost a year to get myself together.💕

I also am 69 going on 70 and stopped coloring my hair. I love my silver hair. Most people here in Florida have silver/gray hair so when I see a woman with colored hair around here she looks out of place. I don’t feel any older since I let my hair go natural. Loved your post! ❤

@@loriwise3177 I wish my gray were pretty silver. Only the front was the rest of it was a very mousy salt and pepper. It wasn’t a pretty color if it was silver I would’ve kept it. Funny you live in Florida. That’s where I moved from. I lived in the Fort Lauderdale area for over 40 years but after losing my husband, I had no family left so I moved to North Carolina to be near my sister and her family. I miss South Florida tremendously, some people have the most beautiful silver hair and I am envious of that. Mine was not attractive at all so coloring it. It looks better but I really hate the upkeep and the expense. Thank you so much.

My cat died this week. It was quick and she didn't suffer. She died at home and my husband buried her. I got her for my mom, after she was diagnosed with dementia. Ronnie gave my mom two happy years. She gave me a few more and made mom's passing a little easier, if there is such a thing. I'm heartbroken, but It could have been worse. However, my husband really has had my back and he's tried to protect my heart. That means the world to me. Thanks for letting me unload. I hope everyone has a wonderful week.🤗

We have come a long way in many areas. I am a 63 year old women who works as a Wiring Technician with all men in the business I work for. I have been told I do the best work by my boss. Yet, all the men have working partners. I am single. I get paid the least for doing a better, more efficient and more productive job. I have been harassed, yet refuse to quit primarily because I need the job. My husband divorced me after over 20 years of marriage. I was left homeless with not much but my IRA account. He got everything. So yes we can vote, we have aged better, we have come a ways; yet we have quite a ways to go.

I recently lost my 94+ mother also. I really do have to figure up her age bc it was NOT ever spoken about until she was much older and she took pride in that she could still work when she wanted, be the Vice of her women's auxiliary, was active in the same church and kept performing in theater well into her late 80's. She received a lifetime achievement award and proudly walked to the stage to accept under a month after bypass surgery. I'm still slowly opening the boxes that were "picked FOR me" of some of her things. Don't get me wrong, this kind of mother was not the easiest to grow up with, but now I can see that she felt she was born way before her time and everything she wanted to do in her young adult life was met with "you can't do that" in one form or another and she didn't want to disappoint, but motherhood was NOT appealing to her, but she had the 3 of us and was truly remarkable. I'm still listening for my phone to ring and sometimes I can't wait to tell her something ....until. I always see these videos on Saturday evening and maybe just once I'll be busy and have to catch it later! Lol. We women are not recognizing how STRONG we are and much of it is due to the tough women who came before. 🩷

I’m 79. and hope 80 will be the new 50! I think women these days have the opportunity to look younger with natural looking makeup and hair coloring. I like dressing in classic clothing and we do look put together with a column of one color. We have so many more options than our mothers had to look younger. I often think of the leading woman in My Fat Greek Wedding when she said the man may be the “head” but the woman is the neck that turns the head. It is true that we have influence on so many things because we are strong.

I have come a long way from being an abused young woman in my first marriage. A second marriage was not with abuse, but a smoking husband that caused me to have Asthma. I had to walk away to save my life. And a boyfriend who was a hoarder. Again, not a bad guy, but one causing me harm through hoarding. Here I am now, on my own, my daughter is grown up. Yes, it has been hard. But I am doing it! Not easily, but still I get up every day knowing what I do is up to me. If I have a bad day, maybe tomorrow will be better. I am visiting my best friend soon in North Carolina. I have known her for 51 years. Things sure have changed since then. Not always for the better. But I will keep on going anyhow.

Good for you to realize you can make it on your own. It is different for you but isn't the freedom from discomfort of the poor habits of another so uplifting. It certainly is for me! Peace in my home is so satisfying and essential, even if there are times I feel lonely. I have never been married but have lived with a man twice for less than 2 years. My independence is so much more rewarding than feeling harassed by another's behavior in my healing home and refuge to renew. Men are learning if they want a woman in their life they have to step up and be respectful and allow equality. We no longer have to try and prove ourselves. We now know our worth! We can now allow ourselves this glorious truth about ourselves. It is the truth! We are profound creations designed by our Almighty Creator! Blessings to the feminine. A balance of the heart and the mind! ❤🎉 I trust the younger generation will be able to adjust and live in this respectful way of relating . We have paved the way!! 🙂

I don't do plain...in anything. In my teen years l took a six month finishing school course. During wardrobe class the teacher said, "There are different approaches to style. Some women suit a dramatic mode, others a very feminine one, or a gentle quiet look. Some want to blend with the crowd while others stand out." She asked me what l wanted. *I replied, "l WANT THEM ALL, except for blending in...I want to stand out."* Decades later l still want that.

I love getting dressed to just go to the grocery store. I like looking nice. One of the blogs I follow said that when she walks into a restaurant some women might think she is over dressed but she felt it was a badge of honor to look nice and stand out. She was proud of the way she looked and how much effort she put into it. My mother always dressed in outfits not just clothes when she went out and she passed it down to me. And she got it from her grandmother. And I also learned how to be strong from those women. They gave me a lot of good lessons and self confidence.

I'm past the 70 mark and I'm a very lucky lady. #1)My mom and her three sisters were all good examples of caring for of yourself and they all looked and acted younger than many of their contemporaries. #2) I have never been told that I should stay in the background, because I wasn't capable. I know that we can be soft and strong at the same time. I know that strength outlasts power. I know that emotionally strong men want strong women and emotionally weak men want weak women. I know that most of us are trying to do our best. And, I know that others' negative opinions define them, but not me. My goal is to speak of strength and be a good role model to honor the strong people in my life, who have taught these truths. Thank you for this insightful message, Susan.

It is so true. I look at the photo of my grandmother on her 50th birthday and she looks like 80. Truly. I always say rock 'n' roll keeps me young. I put it on, the Eagles, America, and even Joni M., and dance around the house or sing a long like I used to do at 18 only now I'm 75 but still thriving. I love clothes, outfits, decorating, friends, great conversation, family (what's left of it), learning and doing. But, with all this, it would be nothing without acknowledging God's blessings and I do all through the day. Blessings to you Susan and everyone here.

I have used Ponds cold crème under my foundation for over 47 years when I would get ready for work. Since retiring I don’t wear make up anymore unless going somewhere special. I forgot to take better care of my skin, however you have inspired me to start using skin products that do not cost a fortune. You live in a beautiful are, living in Florida where it is summer almost all year around my wardrobe consist of shorts. I’m going to be better I just ordered a linen shirt and some pants that look like boho print and light weight. Have a Blessed week you and Desi❤❤❤❤❤

It’s just too hot in FL so I hear you! I don’t wear makeup often because by the time I get ready and get in my car my face is actually dripping. Mostly I have sunscreen and lipstick on. My friend has Melanoma and trust me you don’t want it. Make sure you have sunscreen on the back of ur hands. I started putting a light pair of gloves on when I drive.

I’ve been living in Care for nine years. I’m turning 57 this may. I’m physically disabled and last may, I acquired long Covid. I was a spunky feisty child. I’m still a spunky feisty woman! My peers have always been different than me in a way that has made it easier for me to make friends and have relationships with people, older than me [Biologically]. But I’ve been isolated all through the shutdown and I get out about every nine days to get a few groceries or to go to a local park for a little while. Today was one of those days. The sun was bright and shining, tiny wildflowers of all colours at my feet I marvelled at Nature and the centurion trees with bird song filling the air around me. And lucky me, I’ve been Imaging that I can still make a difference in this world. And while I’m planning to start a channel and taking the first steps to learning how, I’ve had a little doubt creeping and I’ve lost a little faith in myself and perhaps confidence. just listening to this video and finding your channel and hearing you speak and seeing you radiate kindness, truth, realness, and more, restored my faith. Thank you so much for inspiring me. Sending you so much love light and beauty. I have tears running down my cheeks because I’m so moved by meeting you. PS what a beautiful flower, little doggy & your beautiful self, too

Hi Susan, some of my friends that I have met recently don't like the way I speak up for myself, but like I tell them, if you don't stand up for yourself than no one else is going to do it for you, l always stand up for myself and I tell them, all women have to stand up for yourself no matter what and if a man doesn't like it, l tell them, all men always stand up for themselves too, so what's the difference, and they realize, you know you are right, hugsssss ❤❤❤

I’m 57 and people tell me that I look in my late 30s. I laugh at that. I believe why we look younger these days is because of technology, better nutrition, skin care and the most important fact is that we don’t put up in situations or people who want to bring down our peace and joy. Susan what a great video, and Desi looked so cute with his bow tie. Thanks for sharing your view and wisdom.

We managed. Never bothered me about having kids and getting married. I was 33 when I married my husband and 34 when I had my first child.

"The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world." Truer words have yet to be said. Having choices in Voting, career, marriage or not. That scares most men to death, even today. Inherently most know that if the playing field was ever level, we could leave them in the dust . And...they might actually have to act as true partners and look outside themselves and introspection seems to be something most avoid. Married twice, at 66, I am coming into my own every year in a way that makes ME happy. Because, like so many of you, WE have done the introspection. 🎶 Listening to lyrics of current female artists helps revive my hope that they have learned from watching us. Listening to music from the 60's & 70's makes me smile and dance. Looking at the road ahead, I hope we all link arms and keep the rights our predecessors worked so hard to get us...just to be thought of as equals!!!🎉❤

Hi Susan❤ I’m 69 and will be 70 in October and one of the things I notice is that our age group seems to have more resilience - a friend of 72 and I are both called back into classrooms to teach regularly - busy right now with the syllabus and helping out much younger teachers who are struggling with so many different illnesses. Difficult times for many. I find myself wearing more youthful pants and tops than I might have chosen for lounging about at home - perhaps a good thing as I like swimming and my tracksuit 😁…

THE WOMEN BEFORE It is not just your mother who may walk with you in spirit, it is her mother too. And her mother’s mother. And her mother’s friends, who loved by choice and not blood. And the women before them. Generations and generations of female energy, watching in admiration as you forge ahead living better, feeling better, accepting better, than they ever did. As they were much hoped you would. So, when you feel low, lonely or unloved. Remember them, feel them. They are with you, and they burn brightly with their boundless light, in everything you do. You, my friends, are the ‘moment in time’ of many women gone before, and you will lay pathways, like they did, for those who come up next. What a beautiful, unending legacy. ~Donna Ashworth

I've always loved monochrome clothing, or at least solids. I've never been one much for prints. It's been years since I've layered a lot of makeup. These days, I only wear a lot of makeup if I have the opportunity to perform. 💃 I fascia blast regularly. It stimulates blood flow and smooths out my skin. I love it. It serves me well. 🌺 🇨🇷 🌺 Women need to be careful...we've taken on a lot of masculine qualities...and some men have taken on a lot of feminine qualities. It's not conducive to relationships.

She was overweight but she never let that stop her. I’m 58 and I can remember my husband’s aunt getting remarried at the age of 50 and I was 23 and I felt she was so old to be getting married again. But I see things much different now it’s like 50 is so young to me now. The world has changed and I seriously can’t tell the age of people anymore lol.

Susan, I love the way you make everything look pretty. I can make things look functional, but not pretty. In about 6 weeks I will be 80 and I have lived through some of the changes in the world. Years ago. even though I was working, I couldn't get a credit card in my name without my husband co-signing for me. I have seen so many changes in the work place, as well. We have to stick together. I don't know how to act 80 because no one in my family, except my grandmother, has lived this long. And she was very active. I may not be as active as I would like, I am taking after her. And I will not give in. I will keep going forward. Sending Light and Love to all of your subscribers. ❤🙏❤

@@vera214T I went back and watched it again. I think the appreciation for the Suffragettes was pretty big in Michigan. Don't know why 🤷🏼 But the mother of a lifelong friend of mine from Michigan drummed it into us as young girls how important the fight for the right for women to vote was. How far we've come! And how important it is now to fight for our rights🙏

Yes I needed to hear this today too. I’m 70 myself and I’m had a hard day. I signed with my daughter got alone and was over a year and finally they took out all the rest of it out of my checking account just when you think you’re about done then something else happens. That’s what I’m wearing tomorrow. My black dress I could use your polkadotted shirt to cover it up with that would be great. I’ll have to find me one. You always look so nice. Always enjoy your videos. Thanks for making our day.❤

That blouse!!! OMG, it looks marvelous on you. I love that you wear clothes. :-) By that, I mean that you are not in gym wear and flip flops all the time. People think that that passes for clothing. When I go to the grocery store, I wear clothes, not sweats. You know what? Every time I shop, people stop me. They say, "You know, you look so nice today," They are almost surprised, but always delighted, that I took the trouble to dress myself before going out, because, these days, people simply cannot be bothered, and that is a pity. It's a reflection, I think, on people's state of mind. They feel hopeless and sad, so they look hopeless and sad. Anyway, I'd like to mention a product that I enjoy, that you might want to try out. We are almost exactly the same age - maybe within a month. And, as we mature, our hair gets very fine. So, I tried Big Sexy Hair. You spray it on damp hair. No, it didn't make me look like Dolly Parton, but it did add some volume to the appearance of my hair, and made me feel better about it, because it didn't feel so thin. And yes, it is distressing that men feel so condescending towards women, and that they are threatened by women who feel and act equal to them. I ascribe that mindset to nearly all of my failed relationships. One wonders whether we, as a society, can ever move past it.

Susan, I think this is one of your best videos yet!! Women have come a long way. I graduated high school in 1974 and wanted desperately to go to college but was told no by my parents. I couldn’t go because I was a girl. I worked as a secretary for years going to college at night. Married my second husband had 2 boys and went to school to become a nurse. That marriage ended but I kept going raising the kids and obtaining my BSN and at 55 my MSN/Nurse Practitioner. I rented an apartment for 15 years while I raised my boys and worked at a nearby hospital. My sons’ dad died while they were teenagers. At 60 I bought a townhouse. I am now 67 still working night shift as a Hospitalist NP, in decent shape, go to the gym, swim, need a knee replacement. My boys are grown but one left and moved back so they are both here. It wasn’t easy but I did it and I did it by myself. I have no student loans. I have a paid off Nissan Rogue and am paying down some credit card debt. I am going to my 50th high school reunion from a Catholic girls school in June. Life is good. Not always easy but it is good. ❤

I have to show you a picture of my grandmother in 1952, on the day I was born. She was 50. When she died in her 80's, she was still gorgeous - was Mardi Gras queen in her nursing home. Style, jois de vivre never fails if we cultivate it in our lives. I'm going through my closets and drawers these days to discard old clothes that are not in style and are too old looking. I don't dress in ways that are too young, but try to be classic - like this most beautiful woman who was my life's model.

@@bevswrightMy Mother’s sister- my Aunt Ginny was a gorgeous woman. She dressed beautifully EVERY DAY. She wore light but stunning makeup until she was 93. In the last 20 years of her life I talked to her for hours on the phone. One day she fell and broke her hip and then got dementia. It was very sad to lose her. Her Mother died when my Aunt was 7 and my Mother raised her. She had an amazing life.

Hello Sussn! It's good to recount & remember history. Not forgetting the holocaust, suffrage. All of that. I'm about 3 years older than you & yes I've encountered some bias. But was only told children should be quiet as discipline but not as a female. I was encouraged to study, learn, be strong. I came from strong women who lived through some tough times. My grandmother had a college degree so did my mother. We're very blessed. We need to keep the female in woman. So yes, something to be celebrated. God made us male & female. Thankful for our ancestors battling the tough things. Now passing on not just knowledge but gratefulness & kindness. That's a heritage to pass on. Have a blessed week 💕.

Oh, Susan! This is such a great video! Ah! Women’s History Month in March! I am purchasing some books on the history of the women’s suffrage movement on Amazon! I did some research on this at the university in my 40’s, and I am 75 now! There are excellent historic videos on KZfaq, and during March I was blessed to watch some on my smart television! My new television is a great God story! A friend gave it to me at Christmas after she learned that my old one finally went to TV Heaven! Never stop learning, my Lovelies! Every day is change, is a precious gift! We are gifts to each other! We are eternal spirits and God bless you!!

I’m 62 and I decided that I don’t want to wear makeup. Costs money and time as well as putting something on your skin that goes into your body. Why makeup, men don’t wear makeup. I actually look healthier and feel better without makeup up but I do enjoy skin care which men can and some do use. Healthy body and skin is important. Thank goodness for the woman who faught for all women’s rights so we can continue to fight for more. Woman still have a ways to go for equality but the women from the past got us started in a big way. 😊

You know I always thank the service men and women who have fought and are fighting to make it possible for me to vote. I have never thought to thank the many women who came before me who make it all possible in the first place. Thank you so much for the reminder. I would love to sit down with a cup of coffee and just talk with you for an hour. I am also 69 this year but I know you could teach me so much. I love you and Desi. God Bless.

Using oils on my skin is one of the best things I’ve done for it. I live in the Southwest and it’s dry. So, extra moisture that oils give it help tremendously. I recently turned 70. 😊 I had some apprehensions about it…thinking about how old that age was 50 years ago. But! I’ve overcome that little bump in the road and am enjoying another Spring! 2 of my grandchildren are getting married this year and I feel blessed to be here for their weddings!! Susan, you are the one that introduced me to Pumpkin Oil, Castor Oil etc. Thanks! Everyone have a fabulous new week!
