I’m 42. I’ve tried almost every beauty fad so you don’t have to. Here’s what I’d actually keep vs. pass on: 1. Chin strap — HARD NO Just moves fluid. The second it’s off, it’s gone. 2. Skin flooding — OBSESSED Hydrated skin = smoother, plumper, less crepey. 3. Vibration plate — LOVE Good for circulation + lymphatic drainage. I feel a difference. 4. Microcurrent — BACK AND FORTH Works… but only if you stay consistent. 5. Lip blushing — EH Could be great for some but I still reach for lip products. 6. At-home laser hair removal — WORTH IT Takes time, but works if you stick with it. 7. Eyebrow tattoo — LIFE-CHANGING Saves time + frames your whole face. 8. At-home microneedling — YES (if done right) Stay shallow. Don’t overdo it. 9. Dermaplaning — THE SH*T Smoother skin, better makeup, better absorption. 10. Exfoliation mitts — SECRET WEAPON So much dead skin comes off… it’s wild. 11. Mouth tape — HMMM I believe in it (teeth + sleep)… I just forget to use it. 12. K Tips- love/hate Do such a great job filling in the hair around the face, but they require upkeep  13. LED masks — YES, BUT Consistency + quality matter. The Omnilux is my fave I tried 14. Overnight collagen masks — LOVE You wake up looking better. Not permanent, but worth it. 15. Olive oil shot — WORTH IT Anti-inflammatory, supports skin, and I notice better glow + digestion.
