It’s Aries season!
Some beauty faves from March and what I was reading and listening. #beautyfavorites #monthlyfavorites #over40beauty
As we embrace Aries season, it's the perfect time to refresh not only your mindset but also your beauty and self-care routine. I recently explored some standout products that have truly elevated my daily regimen, especially geared towards those of us navigating skincare after 40. One key for me has been integrating a mineral tinted SPF cream — combining sun protection with a lightweight, natural-looking coverage saves time and protects skin health year-round. I particularly love formulas that go on sheer but build nicely, such as the MDSOLARSCIENCES Protect & Nourish Mineral Tinted Crème SPF 30. It’s ideal for the unpredictable March sun during this fiery Aries time. For makeup, I’ve been drawn to creamy textures that impart a soft, radiant flush reminiscent of the moody 'Wuthering Heights' aesthetic. Cream blushes paired with one-and-done eyeshadows streamline the process without sacrificing sophistication. Fragrance is another personal favorite to refresh each season. Maison Margiela's Memory line and Jil Sander’s Black Tea scent helped me capture the feel of late winter transitioning into spring. These scents blend floral and smoky tea notes creating a unique aura—perfect for spring’s dynamic energy. Reading-wise, Elizabeth Kostova’s novels are a thrilling companion, blending history and myth in a captivating narrative. They offer a quiet, immersive escape that balances the dynamic Aries energy well. Finally, targeting skincare concerns like fine lines and occasional breakouts past 40 requires a diligent, balanced approach. Combining serums like Skinceuticals’ A.G.E. Interrupter with brightening eye creams and gentle pimple treatments ensures skin stays vibrant and healthy. Don’t forget to powder lightly for a fresh finish! From practical tips to favorite products and book recommendations, aligning your routine with the spirited vibe of Aries season can be both empowering and enjoyable. Embrace the season’s energy by investing in products and rituals that celebrate your unique beauty and wellness journey.
