New & Noteworthy Midlife Skincare From Colleen Rothschild 

New & Noteworthy Midlife Skincare From Colleen Rothschild 

Hello Pretty Ladies,

I hope your weekend is going well and you’re having a great weekend. It’s Sunny and beautiful here in Utah, and I have to say we’ve been enjoying it. We’ve been having dinner on the deck the last three nights, and all the trees are starting to bloom beautiful blossoms.

Speaking of trees, we started our Saturday morning off by having two beautiful trees removed from our yard, one being a stunning cherry tree. Although attractive, unfortunately, they were too close to our home and caused some damage, so it was necessary to have them cut down and removed. Everything went smoothly, and the tree service did a fantastic job. Meanwhile, Ben is redoing our decks; new front and back decks are also happening this Spring. It’s great to get things checked off your Spring cleaning checklist. Do you have Spring projects happening?

Saturday is the day I try to do a little self-care. With everything happening outside, I took this time to try Colleen Rothschild’s new skincare line, which targets a Few Midlife Skin Issues: blemish-prone, sensitive, and reactive skin.

I love how it left my skin feeling. I also used the overnight treatment for extra moisturizer, as I try not to wear makeup on Saturday. Having one day a week to let your skin breathe is always a good idea. I also did a hair mask HERE, gave myself a self-tan (I use Loving Tan ), and derma-planed my face. HERE

Hello Pretty Ladies, 

I hope your week is going well. We’re enjoying pool time and soaking up pretty weather on Spring break. How about you? It’s been a while since I’ve shared on the blog what products I’ve been using lately and how I use them in Midlife as far as a Skincare Routine, from what I use for the day versus what I use at night and for a self-care day. I am also sharing all my discount codes as well.

A weekly Self-care day for your skin is highly recommended:) It’s just a little extra attention your skin deserves.

Midlife Helpers & Supplements I Take In Midlife

Midlife Helpers & Supplements I Take In Midlife

 

Hello Pretty ladies,

Happy Good Friday and start of Easter weekend as well as Spring Break. 

We’re heading to Church services this evening and leaving for Spring break on Tuesday.

This week’s Friday blog post took a turn. I was going to share a fabulous Spring outfit. Then, after yesterday’s Live with Suzanne, I realized so many of you wanted to know what supplements I’ve been taking and some of the items I’ve been using that have helped me on this midlife journey.

Please note that I am not a Doctor. I have seen Doctors and hormone replacement Doctors, and I’ve done a lot of research. These are just some of the items I’ve been taking and have found to work for me. Having had a hysterectomy in September of last year, I genuinely feel the best I’ve felt in years. I’ve been taking several of these items for years and added a couple to the mix in the last 3-4 months. 

Midlife Helpers & Supplements I Take In Midlife

A little Health Journey info

I am not doing any HRT at this time and have not since around 2020. While this did work for me back in 2016-2019, while in the stages of pre-menopausal, I felt great, and it helped me tremendously to feel better and to get that hormonal weight I’d gained off.

I noticed after that 3rd year going into 4 I wasn’t feeling like myself, probably because the stages of Menopause were changing, and I also am assuming this was the time I probably started having tumor issues and wasn’t aware. Now, 2020 -2022 was a hard time for the medical field. Which we are all aware of.

Because of this, I stopped doing HTR and started looking into more supplements that could help while in this stage of midlife and Menopause. This is a tiny part of my journey in midlife and a peek at my Midlife helpers & Supplements I take in midlife.

I shared some of my Hysterectomy journey Here and more of my Midlife Journey Here. I discussed our last LIVE Midlife Helpers in these Highlight Videos and this Instagram Live.

MSM 1000mg is an organic sulfur and one of the most abundant minerals in the human body. It can be obtained nutritionally by consuming plant foods such as Brussels sprouts, asparagus, legumes, and kale. The MSM content of the food is highly dependent on the sulfur content of the soil. MSM plays a role in collagen production and is often used synergistically with glucosamine and chondroitin in joint support supplements.

—Vlog— Surgery Day How I prepared the morning of —Vlog—
Surgery Day

How I prepared the morning of surgery to remove my 
Melanoma Cancer on my face…

A few things that helped me for the 4-6 hour surgery day.

-Started day with Warm lemon water 
-Prayers, Devotion and journaling. (This helps start your day off right and with strength and peace)🙏🏻
- My Doctor suggested having high protein (I made A high protein Smootie with High antioxidants & Vic C for healing

- Washed hair & styled as I wasn’t sure when I would get to take a shower & wash hair,due to Stitches & bandages on face.

- Essentials, ear buds to listen to a podcast or audio book, my lap top in case I wanted to watch a movie, ice water, a protein bar, lip gloss, a charger and a hair tie❤️

- Comfortable Clothing 

If you want more details on my Melanoma Journey 💪🏻I have two LIVES🎥 in feed SHARING the details the day before, on what to look for, what the difference is between skin cancer and melanoma, what mine looked like and  What procedure the surgeon is doing , as what we did prior to prep, and answering questions-labeled Part one in feed and I am wearing a denim top.
&
-The day after surgery- sharing how it went, results, how I felt, a peek at how far the stitches went, what care is, and next steps as well as answering a ton of questions I received in DMs.  That one you’ll see the bandage on my face😉

I am being very real and authentic with you in sharing this journey, to help spread awareness on the importance of having your skin checked by a dermatologist.🧑‍⚕️👩‍⚕️

While also showing how smoothing so small can take a lot of work to be removed, while also showing…. It will be ok, and you may feel scared and think you’ll never look the same, but you can be brave, trust the process and we’ll heal and look normal again:) It just takes time😉❤️💋💪🏻🙏🏻

Update: Today is 7 days after surgery and I had my stitches taken out yesterday! 
Now the real healing begins. 
I finally had a decent nights sleep, my face is swollen, I don’t look like Frankenstein anymore😉 and although the scar goes from my under eyelashes to my jaw, it looks better then I thought it would. It’s pretty flat and the Dr, who stitched me up did an amazing job. ❤️#melanoma

5 Days of Family Fun … Wrapped up in 20 Photos✔️ 5 Days of Family Fun …
Wrapped up in 20 Photos✔️

I can’t tell you how fun the last 5 days have been full of family, adventures, building memories and reminiscing of past. 

Although we do try to get together often, this was one of those rare times, we actually had more time, more intention and something Nana, really needed more then ever❤️ 

No rushing, no drama just togetherness and enjoying each other …

Along with some fun Utah activities and places. It truly was a great time together ❤️

I’ve been sharing a lot in stories 🎥

Planing a trip to Utah?
Here’s a few places and things we did, that everyone enjoyed.

@thegrandamerica (the cocktail lounge is where we surprised nana) beautiful hotel, great cocktails & live piano & harp music- gorgeous lights and the Laurel restaurant is so good.

@proskijor  Horse & Ski Event in Heber (2 day event) 2 dates and locations on calendar for Utah 

Midway -a cute little Swiss town next to Heber, with great restaurants and little shops. @ballerinafarmstore  is located here and a must stop.

Park City & Deer Valley- Great Ski town full of everything you’d expect and more. @jcrew had a Olympic Clothing collab pop-up (I had to check out) 

With a large group & perfect for Car  enthusiasts Billy Blanko Mexican restaurant can accommodate you and it’s a very fun vibe part of @billwhiterestaurants 

@themercantile_on25th  is a great brunch & The girls loved the iced lattes 

@snowbasinresort is our local ski resort (my families fav) Stunning lodges with good food to hang out in , if your not a skier and amazing terrain if you are🎿🚠

I’ll be sharing more details and a few more fun things later this week……Wait tell you see what the highlight of everyone’s Trip was….I bet you can’t guess💙💙

It’s something EVERYONE loves and can’t get enough of 💙

Never underestimate the power of joy & the healing Never underestimate the power of joy & the healing family can bring❤️🙏🏻

When 6 Grandchildren & their spouses along with parents traced from 3 states to surprise their Nana….

Not only did they get the reaction they hoped for…. They gave her what she needed❤️❤️

It’s been one year since we lost Papa and this surprise lifter her sprints more than they could have hoped for. 

5 days of family bonding, sightseeing in Utah with love and a lot of laughter! 

I highly recommend a family surprise visit to help lift a family members spirit.

There wasn’t a dry eye 🥹in the lounge at the @thegrandamerica 
One of the waiters came up and said “I knew something special was going to happen… Was the sweetest thing to watch🥹❤️”
He even thank all of us❤️❤️❤️

(I think he wanted to hug Nana too😉😂)

The joy of family, family heals, lifting your spirits

A flash back to 2016 …. The changes and the simil A flash back to 2016 ….

The changes and the similarities from 10 Years ago!

Sharing 20 photos… looking back at Instagram trends, fashion, what photos caught people’s attention, what I shared back then and some pinch me moments! 

Still having pinch me moments as a midlifer, in a career that didn’t even exist until 2010 and really didn’t start picking up steam until 2015/16

Isn’t that crazy… and think of all the new careers still to come….
