FAQs

Q: Over the years, I’ve stuck with the same heavy eye makeup. Now that I’m in my 60s I want to soften my look, but am not sure how to change. Any advice?

A: First, toss any liquid or black eyeliner, and swap it with an eye pencil in a softer shade like charcoal. Use the pencil to create to outer lash line along the bottom of your eyes, and then slightly smudge it with your finger. Skip the liner along the tip, and instead apply a layer or two of black mascara.

Q: I’m considered a senior citizen, but I certainly don’t feel so old! My daughter keeps urging me to cut and color my hair (which I wear long past my shoulders with its natural salt and pepper shade)

A: First, while your daughter probably has your best interest in mind, always maintain the look that feels right to you. But, if you’re open to updating your ‘do, then why not?! Flip through a magazine or browse the Internet for some styles that you think might flatter you. Then, bring them to your stylist and see what he or she recommends. They’ll be able to blend your ideas with your hair type and the shape of your face for a final style that suits you the best.

Q: Should men shave right before a facial?

A: Shaving the day of their facial — or the night before — can give men ultra-sensitive skin that’s prone to irritation. However, too much stubble will get in the way of product absorption. Men ideally should shave two days before the appointment.

Q: I haven’t been sleeping well lately, especially the night before I have a big meeting or project to complete. Are there any pampering ideas that might help?

A: Relaxing your body before hitting the sheets is a good start to improving your sleep pattern. By allowing your mind to slow down for at least 30 minutes, you won’t be as likely to toss and turn later. A bubble bath is a relaxing way to begin, with a product made for nighttime relaxation, like Jurlique Tranquil Bath Oil. You might also try a pillow spritz with lavender, which naturally helps promote sleep. And don’t forget to breathe! Deep breaths can help you unwind.
