🍃Amazon Prime Day is July 8th-11th🍃 It’s taken me years (and a lot of trial + error) to figure out what actually works for my digestion and overall wellness—especially post-40 when everything started shifting. 😅 Here are a few Zenwise 🍃 staples I genuinely keep in rotation: 💚Women’s Probiotic – I take this daily. It covers gut health, bloating, and has added strains to support women’s hormonal balance, which I’ve really come to appreciate. 💚No Bloat – I reach for this when I know I’ve overindulged. Two before bed and I wake up feeling so much lighter—it’s honestly part of my post-dinner ritual now. 💚ZenDetox – This one’s for the reset moments. After flying, busy weeks, or just feeling “off,” it helps me feel more grounded without harsh side effects. 💚Zen GLP-1 – I call this my summer accountability buddy. It helps curb the snacky moments and supports digestion with added probiotics too. And with Prime Day Deals coming up it’s really the best time to restock or try them! 🤗💚 Did you have one you’d particularly want to try out?

Style over 40 isn’t about rules—it’s about confidence. They said “dress your age”—I say, dress for you. 😘

This summer’s been all about leaning into color, ease, and outfits that make me feel good in my skin. ✨

Here’s a roundup of my favorite looks from the past two months—each one a reminder that style doesn’t come with an age limit. 🌞✨

Aging skin doesn’t ask for more steps — it asks for better ones.

In my 40s, I pay less attention to chasing lines away and more attention to preventing dehydration from turning into something deeper.

What I appreciate most about this GUYU Ginseng Firming Brightening Essence
is how intentional it feels — concentrated, targeted, and easy to stay consistent with.

Small ampoules, fresh every use, zero waste of product… but full impact where it counts.
It’s become one of those quiet staples I don’t think twice about anymore —
and honestly, that’s how I know something’s working.

Skincare over 40 – My current go-to morning routine ✨

Lately I’ve been reaching for a simpler, faster routine—especially on busy mornings when I still want my skin to feel hydrated and put together.

Other than including some of my long-time staples like TIRTIR Milk Skin Toner Light and First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream, I’ve been adding in a couple of newer favorites I’ve been really enjoying.

The Abib Jericho Rose Mist gives instant hydration and helps everything layer better, and the Abib Glutathiosome Dark Spot Serum Vita Drop has been a great lightweight step for brightness and moisture. It creates such a nice base under Beauty of Joseon Day Dew SPF and Typology skin tint, which is exactly what I want in the morning.

As much as I love a full routine, this reminds me that a quick, thoughtful one can be just as effective—and sometimes that’s all you need to start the day feeling good in your skin.

Makeup 💄 Over 40 : There’s this idea that as we get older, makeup should get quieter.

Less glow. Less shimmer. Less experimenting. I don’t agree.

For me, makeup over 40 is about understanding why certain formulas work better—and then having fun again once you know that. Creams that move with the skin. Hydration where it matters. Glow that looks intentional, not oily.

This is one of those looks that feels effortless but still polished—something I’d wear out during the day and never feel the need to change at night.

Age doesn’t take options away. It just gives you better judgment when choosing them ✨

What’s one makeup “rule” you stopped following?

Entering 2026 with clearer boundaries and a lot less guilt about them.

Protecting my energy has become a form of self-care I take just as seriously as my skincare routine.

I’ve learned that abundance isn’t about doing more or giving endlessly — it’s about choosing where and who gets your time.

When you stop pouring from an empty cup, you actually have more to give… and it shows in every part of your life. 💫

What’s one boundary you’re protecting this year?

Style Over 40 – The Frankie Shop Haul Try-On ✨

Finally pulled the trigger on the Jane Coat from The Frankie Shop—and I already know this one’s going to be a closet staple.

It’s a double-breasted long coat with that perfectly oversized fit I love.

I haven’t had the chance to wear it out just yet, but thought it’d be fun to do a quick try-on and style it together here.

Effortless, timeless, and so easy to build outfits around. What do you think of the final look? 🤍

Makeup over 40, but make it realistic ✨

Getting back to work doesn’t mean doing the most For me, it’s about skin that looks like skin, quick steps, and products that work with my face.

This is my easy French-girl inspired routine — fingers over brushes, soft definition, nothing too perfect. Just enough to feel polished, awake, and like myself again.

Because self-care isn’t always a full routine. Sometimes it’s just taking a few minutes to show up feeling good.

✨Skincare over 40 | First time trying Abib (acne-prone friendly test) ✨

This is my first time trying Abib, and I wanted to test it specifically through an over-40, acne-prone lens. 🙈

As we age, skin needs more hydration and repair—but heavier formulas can easily trigger clogged pores, especially on the cheeks. So I’m introducing everything slowly and paying close attention to texture and layering. 💕

Here’s the order I’m using them:
• Glutathiosome Dark Spot Pad — gentle daily exfoliation + brightening; I use this sparingly to avoid overdoing actives.
• Jericho Rose Mist Serum Glow Spray — a light hydration step when skin feels tight or stressed (less is more).
• Glutathiosome Dark Spot Serum — targeted brightening where I need tone correction, not all over.
• Jericho Rose Crème — rich and comforting; best used at night or only on drier areas to avoid congestion.
• PDRN Retinal Eye Patch Glow Jelly — hydrating retinal care just for the eye area, no irritation so far.
Daytime add-on:
• Abib SPF Sunstick — perfect for quick, mess-free reapplication without disturbing makeup.

Testing new skincare over 40 isn’t about using everything—it’s about using the right things intentionally. I’ll share updates as my skin adjusts. 🤗

Wellness over 40 isn’t just about how I look — it’s about how I cope. 🤍

Taking care of my mental health has become just as important as any skincare or workout routine. 🧐

For me, that means building real mental tools so I’m better equipped when life gets hard (because it will). 🤗

These are 3 books that genuinely helped shift my mindset, especially during challenging seasons. Not quick fixes — just honest, grounding reads that I come back to when I need perspective. 📚✨

If you have a book that’s helped you, I’d love to hear it.

✨ADHD-friendly mornings that actually feel doable
Life over 40 means I'm starting to really understand myself. From inside to out. With 2026 around the corner, I'm making it a goal to better understand how my never stopping brain works.

I used to joke that my brain runs like an excel sheet with many tabs open at the same time. I often catch myself not being able to fully switch my brain off even at the end of the day.

The worse is when I want to do 10 things at the same time and just find myself pacing in circles because I physically can't decide where to start.

But now that I understand my brain better, and incorporating tangible and repeatable habits, especially in the mornings, made the biggest difference. Not perfect routines… just realistic ones that support how my brain works.

I wanted to share more of this side of me cause its so important to know that we're not alone in the chaos.

If mornings feel hard, it's ok. And I believe talking about it more and making little shifts is truly what's going to help us in the long run. 💛

Style over 40 – OOTD | Holiday Party Edition ✨

Sharing what I wore to our company holiday party on Friday 🤍 I went with this long-sleeve mini dress from @princesspolly that I got off of @nordstrom - simple, flattering, and comfortable enough to enjoy the night without fussing over my outfit.

To elevate the look, I styled it with my @viviennewestwood pearl necklace, which added just the right amount of personality and edge.

I love when a classic dress becomes something special with one standout accessory—it’s my favorite way to dress for events without overthinking it.

Proof that holiday party outfits don’t need to be complicated to feel chic and confident ✨

Leaning into elevated basics today with a satin one-piece dress from Omnes—effortless, fluid, and so comfortable to wear. I layered it with a structured leather blazer to add a little edge, then finished the look with my Schutz Maryana boots for a confident, put-together feel.

This is one of those outfits that works for so many moments—day to night, casual dinner or a polished workday—without trying too hard. Comfortable, chic, and very me. 🤍

Skincare over 40 feels a lot easier when you find the products that actually support your skin.

Today’s lineup mixes longtime staples with a couple new formulas I’ve been excited to try.

A little daily self-care really does add up.

Makeup Over 40 means Some days I want a full glam moment… and other days I just want my skin to look like my skin but a little more fresh, bright, and alive.

The Typology Tinted Trio has been my quick routine lately — the tinted serum, the concealer, and their tinted lip oil all melt in so easily and just make everything look softer (in the best way). ✨

Lightweight, glowy, and zero fuss… honestly the way I love to get ready now.

If you’re team “less but better,” tell me your go-to quick routine 👀💕

After 40, I started noticing the little changes — slower recovery, thinner hair 💇‍♀️, nails that chip too easily 💅, and skin that didn’t bounce back the way it used to ✨.

I’ve learned that aging gracefully isn’t just about what we put on our skin, but what we nourish it with from the inside 💖.

I’ve been trying AlgaeCal Collagen, a unique blend of four patented collagens — Verisol®, Fortigel®, UC-II®, and FORTIBONE® — each supporting skin elasticity, stronger nails, thicker hair, joint comfort, and even bone strength 🦴.

What I love most? It mixes right into my morning coffee ☕️ with zero taste or clumps — so easy to stay consistent with!

Feeling good in your 40s (and beyond) really does start from within — and this has quickly become one of my daily must-haves 💫. Check out AlgaeCal Collagen at the link in my bio!

Some gifts feel thoughtful the moment you open them — not just because they’re beautiful, but because they invite you to slow down and care for yourself.

The Multimasking Coffret from Evidens de Beauté has been that kind of gift — for myself, and for people I love. It brings together three of my favorite treatments:
✨ The Cream Mask for deep nourishment and comfort
✨ The Night Recovery Solution to restore and hydrate overnight
✨ The Special Mask for that fresh, luminous glow

Each one feels indulgent yet purposeful, reminding me that caring for my skin over 40 isn’t about perfection — it’s about small, consistent rituals that make me feel balanced and at ease. 🧖‍♀️

A timeless gift of care and calm, beautifully packaged in true Evidens de Beauté style.

Over 40, the under-eye area is always the first place that shows when I’m tired.

Lately I’ve been using the GUYU Elixir Ginseng Moisturising Eye Cream, and what makes it stand out is the built-in EMS massage head.

It helps the ginseng and peptides absorb so much deeper, and the cooling micro-current feels amazing in the mornings.

The formula uses aged ginseng to support collagen, brighten dark circles, and soften fine lines — and I love that it’s gentle enough for sensitive skin.

I’ve even been using the device around my smile lines because it’s designed for the whole face. Simple, effective, and actually relaxing to use — exactly what my routine needed.

Here’s the exact lineup I’m using:

• Kate Somerville ‘s Goat milk moisturizer and Exfolikate
2. Hydration Prep
• TIRTIR Milk Skin Toner Light — balances and softens.

3. Treatment + Moisture
• Drunk Elephant C-Firma mixed with First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream — vitamin C brightening with barrier support.
4. Eye Care Boost
• DIEUX Eye Serum + Patches — instant depuffing and brightness.

A simple, effective routine to get my skin glowing again after travel. Always feels good to reset ✨

If I could tell my 20-something self one thing, it would be: take care of your body before it starts demanding it 😅

In my 40s, I’ve learned that balance isn’t about restriction — it’s about support. From what I eat, how I move, to how I manage stress, everything connects back to gut health and hormones.

That’s why my morning routine always includes Zenwise Women’s Probiotic — it supports digestion, gut balance, and our very real women’s health needs.

And when that inevitable bloat hits (hello, travel and hormones), No Bloat is my go-to. It helps me feel lighter and more comfortable the next day.

It’s the little daily choices that make the biggest difference 💛

Packing for London ✈️ always reminds me how tricky cold, dry air can be on my skin. 🙈

Over the years, I’ve learned that travel skincare isn’t about bringing everything—it’s about bringing what actually works. 😉

I’m taking the GUYU Upgraded Ginseng Firming Essence with me this trip. 🧳

Each tiny capsule is packed with aged ginseng and peptides to help keep my skin hydrated, calm, and firm through long flights and unpredictable weather. 🌧️

The travel-friendly packaging is such a bonus—it fits right in my carry-on and keeps the formula fresh and potent. ✨

It’s one of those products that makes staying consistent on the road easy. 🥰
