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. 🌞✨

One thing I've learned over the years is that lip products don't have to be an either/or situation 💋

My current go-to pairing is @PrimePrometics lip stain + their PrimeLip balm because it gives me the best of both worlds—lasting color plus the comfort and hydration my lips need ✨

A few of my favorite combinations right now are:
🌹 Rosewood + Soft Petal
💕 Muse + Silky Rose
🌸 Bloom + Velvet Rose

Each one gives a slightly different look, but they all wear beautifully together and make it easy to create a polished lip without feeling overdone.

Which combo is your favorite? 🤍

Skincare over 40 and somehow your skin is dry, sensitive, and reactive all at once 😭

That’s usually when I stop trying random things and go back to products that focus on keeping my skin calm and hydrated without overwhelming it.

The Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner has been one of those easy layers for me lately. I love that the formula is minimal, lightweight, and made to be layered depending on what your skin needs that day.

Some days it’s one layer.
Some days we mummify 😂

And honestly… my skin always seems happier when hydration is the focus instead of overdoing actives. Especially over 40.

Have you tried layering toners before?

Skincare over 40 has really shifted my focus from “more products” to finding the right products that actually work well together.

Lately I’ve been appreciating routines that feel simple, calming, hydrating, and easy to stay consistent with — especially when my skin is feeling more sensitive or dry. And this set from @theoutset has been fitting into my routine so seamlessly.

The cleanser leaves my skin feeling clean but comfortable, the serum gives that hydrated fresh-skin look, and the moisturizer seals everything in without ever feeling heavy.

I can definitely see why this routine has become such a favorite ✨

Beauty Over 40 ✨

Recently gave my bob a little summer refresh ☀️ Went slightly shorter and added curtain bangs because… why not? 😅

Of course, a new cut means a tiny update to my everyday styling routine too. Here’s my easy 3-step method for soft volume + movement:
✨ Step 1: Rollers for the bangs + crown area.
The trick? Roll the hair away from where you want it to fall — instant volume.
✨ Step 2: I use a flat iron for the rest of my hair and curl everything away from the face for soft waves and extra bounce.
✨ Step 3: Finish with a flexible hairspray that holds without feeling crunchy or sticky. I still want my hair to move naturally 🤍

And that’s pretty much my everyday bob routine lately 💇🏻‍♀️ Simple, quick, and easy to maintain.

Skincare Over 40 ✨ Reset + Recharge Routine (comment RESTORE to get 🔗 )

This week has been a lot 🤍 One of my kitties has been recovering from pancreatitis, so between the stress, minimal sleep, and barely having an appetite myself… it definitely started showing on my skin too.

Thankfully he’s doing much better now 🐾 and it’s finally time for me to take a moment to care for myself again.

Tonight’s routine is all about giving my skin a little bit of everything it’s been needing lately:
💧 hydration
✨ repair
🫶 strengthening the skin barrier

Nothing complicated — just focusing on helping my skin (and honestly myself too) feel a little more balanced and restored again.

Makeup Over 40 ✨ Blushes… let’s talk about them 💖

If you’ve been here for a while, you already know I’m obsessed with monochromatic makeup looks 😅 Which means blush is basically doing the heavy lifting for my entire face. I need formulas that melt into the skin, look natural, and never sit heavy on top.

Current favorites lately:
💗 Sarah Creal “Coming In Hot” Blush
✨ Laura Geller Cream Palette
🌸 MERIT Flush Balm Cream Blush
💕 Patrick Ta Cream & Powder Blush Duo

All easy to apply, buildable, and perfect for that fresh flushed glow ☀️
And with summer around the corner, I’ve definitely been reaching for brighter blush shades a little more lately.

Hope this video helped 🤍

Style over 40 – Shop Haul Try-On ✨

Recently picked up this chiffon trench coat from The Frankie Shop and thought it would be such a fun addition to my closet 🤍

I’ve always loved layering, but living in LA definitely limits that a bit because of the heat ☀️ So when I saw this lightweight chiffon style, I immediately thought it would be perfect for those windier days or cooler evenings when you still want that layered look without feeling too bundled up.

It’s not my usual go-to style, which honestly made me want to try it even more. Sometimes the best wardrobe additions are the pieces that push you just slightly out of your comfort zone ✨

What do you think—would you wear something like this? And how would you style it? 👀

Makeup over 40 — summer edition ☀️

Ok… but can us ladies over 40 pull off faux freckles too? 👀

I feel like the key is keeping the skin fresh, hydrated, and not overdoing the freckles. The softer layered approach makes it look way more natural and wearable for everyday summer makeup.

And TBH I kinda love how youthful and effortless this look turned out 🤎✨

Another new week, and with this up-and-down weather, my trench coat has officially become my best friend right now 🧥

Because honestly… if it’s not comfortable, I’m not wearing it 😌

Slowing down my nights has become something I really look forward to… 🤍

Not just for my skin, but for a moment to reset after a full day.

• SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum

Style over 40 – OOTD 🖤🐆

Some days it’s all about mixing a little edge with a little elegance. Today’s look—Chrome Hearts tee, a satin leopard maxi, and my YSL slingbacks—feels like the perfect balance of cool and polished.

Proof that over 40 doesn’t mean toning it down… it just means knowing exactly how to style it your way 😉

Spring skin reset, but make it intentional ✨

Over 40, I’ve learned that it’s not just about protecting your skin… it’s about being proactive with what shows up later — especially pigmentation and uneven tone.

I’ve been using the SunsolveMD CORRECT + FADE SPF50, and I love that it goes beyond basic SPF. It’s lightweight, layers beautifully, and actually works with your skin while protecting it.

Because at this stage, prevention and correction should go hand in hand 🤍

Style over 40 – Try-On Haul ✨

Sharing this knit skirt set I recently got from Petite Studio NYC 🤍 I thought it would be such a great option for summer—perfect for the office or even a dinner date out.

You know I love a good set… it just makes getting dressed so easy. And this one? The stretchy knit fabric is so comfortable while still looking put together 💫

Style it with a cute pair of heels to elevate the look, and you’re ready for day or night.

Thank you Petite Studio NYC! 💕 #giftedbutnotsponsored

Some mornings, it’s all about keeping things simple, effective, and fast—especially before a Zoom call 💻

Here’s what I used today:
💧 Abib Rose Water Serum
🌿 Kiehl’s Iris Extract Essence
✨ TIRTIR SOS Serum
🍊 Lenox Sixteenth “The Preservationist” Vitamin C Cream Serum

For over 40 skin, not all blushes are created the same… And this one is made for it!

The texture on the Coming In Hot Blush from Sarah Creal Beauty is what really makes the difference — it doesn’t just sit on the skin, it melts in and gives that soft, diffused glow that looks effortless (and never heavy).

Also love that you can keep it sheer or build it up depending on the mood — it just adapts.

If you’re navigating makeup over 40, this is one of those formulas that actually works with your skin, not against it.

Which shade are you reaching for first? 💕

Skincare Over 40 ✨ | Night Routine (Travel Edition)

When I’m traveling and spending more time outside ☀️, I’m extra mindful about letting my skin replenish and repair overnight.
For me, nighttime is all about restoring hydration and strengthening the skin barrier—especially after long days, sun, and changing climates.

This is the routine I packed for this trip because I know it keeps my skin balanced, calm, and refreshed by morning 🤍

🌙 Toner: TIRTIR Milk Skin Toner (Light)
🌿 Essence: Kiehl’s Iris Extract Essence
✨ Serum 1: Le Mieux EGF-DNA Serum
💧 Serum 2: Cellure Volufiline Serum
👁 Eye: belif Aqua Bomb Lifting Eye Gel
🧴 Moisturizer: First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream

It’s not complicated—but it covers everything I need. And that’s really the goal… waking up with skin that feels rested and looks refreshed ✨

Makeup Over 40 ✨💄 | Natural Nude Lip (Travel Edition)

When I travel, I try not to overpack… even when it comes to my lip combos 😅

This one has been my go-to—an easy everyday nude that works with literally any look.

Soft enough for daytime ☀️ but still polished for a night out 🌙✨

Here’s what I used:
💋 Versed Lip Frame in Dash / Neutral Pink
💋 Kulfi Staining Lip Liner in La La La
💋 Prada Soft Matte Lipstick in P159
💋 MERIT Tinted Lip Oil in Biarritz

Best part? This combo (especially the liners) is super long-lasting, so I barely have to touch up throughout the day 🙌

Do you have a go-to lip combo you always pack? I’m always looking for new ones—let me know in the comments 💬💖

Skincare Over 40 ✨ | Morning Routine (Travel Edition)

I’ll be honest… skincare can be a little overthought sometimes.

At the end of the day, it really comes down to layering well and choosing products that keep your skin calm and balanced.

Traveling definitely puts your body through more—new climates, time zones, all of it. And since our skin is the largest organ, it’s usually the first place that shows it 😅

So when I travel, I stick to what I know works: calming + hydrating only. Nothing extra.

Here’s what I’ve been using for my morning GRWM before makeup on this trip:
💧 Toner: TIRTIR Milk Skin Toner (Light)
🌿 Essence: Kiehl’s Iris Extract Essence
✨ Serum: TIRTIR SOS Serum
👁 Eye: belif Aqua Bomb Eye Gel
💋 Lip: Dr. Dennis Gross DermInfusions Plump + Repair Lip Treatment
🧴 Moisturizer + Vit C: First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream + Drunk Elephant C-Firma
☀️ SPF: Beauty of Joseon Day Dew SPF

Sometimes keeping it simple really does the trick 🤍

Style Over 40+ | Shanghai Day 2 OOTD 🇨🇳✨
Heading out to dinner with my parents and their friends tonight 🤍 Since it warmed up a bit, I opted for the Rumored maxi dress I recently picked up.

This time I styled it with knee-high boots and layered on my Frankie Shop Jane coat for a little added structure 🧥👢

Literally just three pieces and the outfit’s done. I’ll always love a minimal look that still feels put together ✨

With the weather still on the chillier end, I finally got to utilize my Frankie Shop Jane coat—it’s been way too hot before to even give it a proper wear 🧥

Spent the day with my parents just shopping and grabbing food, so I kept the look cozy and comfortable 🤍 Pullover is from Zara Men (one of my favorite unexpected finds), paired with easy denim and my Dior platforms for a little lift 👟

Finished it off with my current go-to—my Balenciaga shoulder bag. The easiest throw-on piece that pulls everything together 👜

Makeup Over 40 ✨ – Covering Discoloration Made Easy
Discoloration and post-acne marks… we all deal with them at some point.

This is my go-to 4-step trick when I need a little extra coverage without it looking heavy 👇

✨ Step 1: Go in with a concealer one shade lighter than your foundation and apply it first
✨ Step 2: Lightly blend your foundation over it
✨ Step 3: Add your usual concealer on the spots and blend again (I love using my fingers here for more control)
✨ Step 4: Set everything with a pressed powder foundation so it stays put all day

It’s simple, but it makes such a difference when my skin needs a little extra help 🤍

Hope this helps! And if you have your own tricks, share them with me—I’m always looking to learn too 💬✨

#ad Three months in, and this is exactly why I believe in simple routines done consistently.

Sticking with the Thayers Hydrating Milky Cleanser and Thayers Hydrating Milky Toner has made my skin feel softer, more balanced, and hydrated in a way that feels natural — not forced or overdone.

Skincare over 40 doesn’t need to be complicated or expensive to be effective. Sometimes it’s the small, steady changes that make the biggest difference.

Hair and scalp changes over 40 are real.

Lately I’ve been paying more attention to my scalp — especially when dryness or sensitivity shows up. Just like our face needs skincare, our scalp deserves the same kind of care.

Right now I’ve been using the Nutrire T.1 Day Serum and T.2 Night Serum, along with the S.1 Calm Shampoo and C.4 Repair Conditioner, and it’s been such a simple way to support healthier hair starting at the scalp.

Have you started focusing on scalp care yet?

Giving credit where credit is due 🤍✈️

Huge thank you to BEIS for sending this beautiful travel bundle just in time for my upcoming Asia trip at the end of March. The timing could not have been more perfect!

I chose the Large Check-In Suitcase in beige, the Dopp Kit toiletry bag, and the Cosmetic Case — and I already know these will get so much use on my travels.

The neutral tone is so chic, and I love having travel pieces that are not only practical but also look polished while you’re on the go.

Safe to say… I can’t wait to pack these for my next trip ✈️
