SKIN🧴

By AshleyProvost

42 and spent a decade figuring out how to actually look better as i age. here’s everything that I did 👇
1.the haircut — i had long hair for years and thought it was making me look younger. it was doing the opposite.
2.melasma — if you’re struggling with this, you must try the Obagi Nu-Derm Clear. I can’t link it because you need a script for it. Mix it with your tretinoin! I will link the one that is not a strong and you don’t need a script for, but it will take longer to work. Also keeping the sun off my face is key.
3.lip lift — the lip lift shortened my philtrum and made my face more feminine looking
4.jeans — I could easily throw away all my other jeans and just keep this pair. These jeans have transformed my wardrobe
5.teeth bonding — small chips and uneven edges that i’d lived with forever. fixing them made me actually want to smile in photos.
6.Teeth bleaching — my teeth have never looked so white
7.skincare — the shift for me was focusing on barrier protection first, then layering in microneedling and growth factors. Linked the products I use religiously. Let me know if you want me to mention what lasers and treatments I get.
8.makeup — started focusing more on a classic look rather than a trendy look. All my go-to products are linked.
9.workouts — running kept me small but soft. lifting actually changed my shape in a way cardio never did. i’ve never felt more confident in my body.
10.style — stopped second guessing every bold choice and started wearing exactly what i want. Linked my favorite bold pieces.

I’m 42. i’d be lying if I said, I wake up like this. what it takes for me to look like I didn’t do much:

1. IPL (1x/year) — erases evidence of my 20s
2. Lip blush (every 3 years) — so I don’t look recently deceased
3. Microneedling + PDGF (4x/year) — makes my skin insanely glow
4. Lip filler (every 3 years) — just a little bit to fill in the lines
5. Skin stamping (1x/week) — because I want my expensive products to actually penetrate
6. Body exfoliation (1x/week) — duh
7. Dermaplaning (1x/week) — makeup goes on so much smoother
8. Botox (every 3–4 months) — for the lines I earned
9. Laser hair removal (every 2–3 weeks) —
one less thing on my weekly list of problems
10. Self tanner (1x/week) — because everyone looks skinnier with a tan
11. Hydrating mask (1–2x/week) — pretending I drink enough water
12. Teeth composite (once + maintenance) — completely changed my smile
13. Red light (4x/week) — boosts collagen and calms inflammation aka skin looks better
14. Nails (every 3 weeks) — so at least my hands look responsible
15. CO2 laser (2x/year) — the reset button for texture, lines, and sun damage
16. Sculptra (4x/year) —long game collagen so I age a little less aggressively
17. Hormone therapy (every 3 months) —
balancing things out so I feel like myself again
18. Scalp treatment (4x/year) — because thinning hair was not the plan
19. Teeth whitening (1x/year) — bc who doesn’t want their teeth to be celebrity white
20. Extensions (every 3 months) — without them, I have toddler hair
21. Eyebrow tattoo (every 2 years) —permanently solving a daily inconvenience

as a busy mom of 4, i’ve tried every beauty treatment that promises to make life easier… here’s my honest ratings on what’s actually worth it

1. lip blush — I don’t dislike it, i just still reach for lip liner and lipstick.
2. teeth bleaching — do it. just do it. obsessed forever.
3. hydrafacial — expected more, def not wowed. I can get this glow at home.
4. dermaplaning — non negotiable. smoother skin, better makeup, smooth skin.
5. at home hair removal — works but you have to be patient. Just don’t wear lip gloss when zapping your mustache 😅
6. tooth bonding — wish i did it sooner. Made SUCH life changing. Requires rebinding sometimes though from wear.
7. wefts / k-tips — when they’re good they’re great. finding the right stylist is everything.
8. this viral spray tan — learning curve is real but once you get it, you get it.
9. brow tattoo — waking up with brows every day changed my life. yessss.
10. lash serum — longer, fuller lashes with zero effort. also yessss.

I’m obsessed with this eye cream. I originally found OneSkin through a podcast. It was a Dave Asprey biohacking podcast, and I bought their products so fast after hearing the science behind it. it’s like no other product on the market. Also, I really really love this PDRN spray and if your face is ever swollen, you need to use this wand. It actually works.

$At 42, this is my exact routine for skin tightening + wrinkles: AM: 1.splash with warm water 2.skin flood (I use 2–3 toners and essences) 3.Peptides (I rotate but always use one) 4.Moisturizer (barrier-focused) 5.SPF (every single day, no exceptions) PM (most nights): 1.double cleanse 2.skin flooding (on damp skin) 3.Tretinoin (I don’t skip this) 4.Peptides/copper 5.Moisturizer (thicker at night) 6. Apply oil 7.lock in with occulent Weekly: • Skin stamping (at home) → followed by growth factors • Extra hydration nights when my skin feels stressed (masks) Monthly / Treatments: • Microneedling with PDGF (if not in office, I do it at home) • Lasers (this is where the real tightening happens, I love the fractionated coolpeel) • Botox every 4 mo • sculptra about 3-4 vials a year If I started over, I would SKIP: -CO2 around my eyes -microneedling with RF -i’ll never do the threads ultherapy VERY interested in trying the new Xerf laser though #LTKBeauty #LTKOver40 #LTKstorytime$

Of course it was only natural I needed to try this daytime mask bc I’m obsessed with the overnight collagen wrapping mask that they make as well. Linked that below. Instant glow in 30 minutes!
Part of the Amazon spring day sale too. I linked all my favorites that are in the sale below.

After spending over $100K on for my skin, here are the 9 things that are actually worth it 💸
1.Sculptra — because I wanted my face back, not frozen
2.Hormone replacement therapy — game changer for my skin hydration and elasticity, nobody talks about this enough
3.Skin flooding — my skin was literally drinking water for the first time
4.CO2 lasers — scary but worth it, my texture has never been the same
5.IPL laser — finally got rid of the sun damage I’d been accumulating since the 90s 😭
6.Microneedling w/ growth factors — the glow after this is unreal
7.Botox — I’m not trying to look 20, I just don’t want to look tired
8.Tretinoin — the one thing I’ll never stop using, ever
9.Consistent skincare — boring but this is actually where the magic happens
10.Sun protection — because why would you do any of the above and then just let the sun undo it 🙏
