Marlo Hampton looked bright and beautiful in her neon dress she shared to Insta. I think neon for summer is great because it matches that summer vibe perfectly. And it has the power to draw attention to you in that fine ‘fit. Which is why shopping a dress like this would be a very bright thing for you to do today.

 

Sincerely Stylish,

Jess

The Eye Cream That Makes Shoppers’ Eye Bags & Fine Lines ‘Disappear’ Is 47% Off Right Now


If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, STYLECASTER may receive an affiliate commission.

I can’t tell you how many times I skipped routine applications of eye cream and regretted it the next morning. The skin around my eyes is often prone to under-eye bags and puffiness (especially if I’ve had too much salt or wine before bed), therefore relying on the effects of a soothing formula is my trick to appearing well-rested. According to shoppers, there’s one fast-acting option that we should all have on hand—and it’s at one of the cheapest prices we’ve seen all year.

The Kleem Organics Firming Eye Cream is clearly a legend amongst Amazon reviewers; some say it works just as well as their expensive eye creams, while others praise it for making their eye bags “disappear” overnight. Even more have posted photo evidence of the “immediate results” they’ve witnessed, alongside remarks that it’s “the best they’ve ever tried.”

An all-in-one eye cream, the product not only de-puffs and minimizes dark circles, but also addresses the key signs of aging. You’ll find caffeine, Matrixyl 3000 (a highly potent peptide blend), plant stem cells and collagen get to work on softening crow’s feet, firming sagging eyelids and lifting the under-eyes for a more awake and youthful appearance.

“I do not have the dark circles, but have the lines and crow’s feet and occasional puffiness. I have been using it for a few weeks and already can see a difference,” raved one five-star reviewer. “I have sensitive skin and this does not make me break out or cause redness….The cream is divine and absorbs without being greasy…Fine lines and wrinkles are easing already after just a few weeks!”

For a more intense cooling and de-puffing effect, the brand recommends storing the eye cream in the fridge. Gently pat a pea-sized amount across areas of concern before moving on to your makeup—it’s fast-absorbing and lightweight enough to be worn under your go-to concealer.

“Since using the eye cream, the fine lines around my eyes are almost gone,” said another reviewer. “The entire line of Kleem Organics products, eye cream, vitamin C serum and retinol cream, are high quality and well worth the money.”

Right now all of the above is on massive sale—snag Kleem Organic’s best-selling products, including the firming eye cream, for less on Amazon right now. Just make sure to click the on-page coupon for an additional 5 percent off, bringing the total savings up to 47 percent.

Turning 70 and a Few Thoughts About Ageism

ageism after 70

My house is on a hillside near the entrance to Wildcat Canyon Park, a beautiful regional park that stretches for miles. I love walking to the park and climbing what we call the ridges. On a clear day, you can reach what you think is the top, slightly out of breath, and turn around to view the San Francisco Bay and Golden Gate Bridge.

Then you turn ahead and realize you aren’t at the top, you’re facing yet another ridge that continues up, and you can see Mount Diablo in one direction and Mount Tamalpais in the other. That experience is what happens when we age.

In September 2022, I turned 70. Wow, it feels just like climbing up those ridges. I’ve been writing blogs for Sixty and Me since my mid-60. Recently, I heard from a reader, Jon Taber, a young man who’d read my blog Life After 60 May Just Be the Most Productive – It’s All About Perfect Timing. He requested an interview about ageism for his podcast, Audit Fun for people in the audit profession.

I’d been busy writing a book and hadn’t written blogs for a while. After researching ageism for the podcast, I decided it was vital information to share with Sixty and Me.

4 Things to Know About Ageism

Societal Stereotypes

Our society that worships youth promotes many misconceptions, stereotypes, and myths about aging. For example, seniors are often stereotyped as slow, weak, feeble, frail, and out of touch with the times, especially with technology. But, of course, you aren’t because you are reading this online!

A Global Challenge

A World Health Organization article entitled Ageism is a Global Challenge reports, “Every second person in the world is believed to hold ageist attitudes – leading to poorer physical and mental health and reduced quality of life for older persons, costing societies billions of dollars each year, according to a new United Nations report on ageism.”

Older Workers

Many of you continue to work part-time during your 60s. Some of my friends are working in their 70s and even their 80s. We don’t need research to remind us that older workers are often highly skilled and experienced.

According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, workers between 55-64 stay in their jobs more than three times more than those between 25-34. They often have a strong work ethic, arrive at work earlier, and are less likely to miss work.

Ageism Hurts Our Health

Whether we are working or not, ageism has been found to hurt our health. For example, an estimated 6.3 million cases of depression globally are estimated to be attributable to ageism. While it’s true that our memory is impacted as we age, we forget more when we worry about it.

But the worst part happens when we believe and internalize negative attitudes about aging. Ageism impacts our health in three different ways:

  • Psychological: negative age stereotypes can exacerbate stress and depression.
  • Behavioral: negative self-perceptions of aging predict worse health behavior, such as noncompliance with prescribed medications.
  • Physiological: negative age stereotypes predict detrimental brain changes decades later, including the accumulation of plaques and tangles and a reduction in the size of the hippocampus.

What Can We Do About Ageism in Our Lives?

Neuroscientists are studying how stereotype threat, which is the fear of confirming a negative stereotype, harms seniors’ performance. In lab studies, researchers found that stereotypes can lead to slower walking and weaker grip strength for older adults.

Gerontology researcher Sarah Barber states, “Your attitude about aging is highly predictive of your aging outcomes,” she said. “Those who have positive attitudes about aging live longer, have a better memory function, and recover more easily from illnesses.”

Acting Against Ageism

So what can we do? We can work to counteract myths and misconceptions about aging and support policies and laws that address ageism. We can also work on our attitudes, increase confidence, enhance empathy, and engage in intergenerational activities. Ultimately, all these things will improve our health and the quality of our lives.

Reaching 70 has been an important milestone for me. I hope to follow this advice as I climb the ridges that lie ahead. You can listen to my recent interview here:

Resources

If you are working, here are a couple of great resources.

  1. National Council of Aging Tips – Job Skills CheckUp, to develop a plan to find job openings, build a professional network, prepare for job interviews, and more.
  2. Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) helps low-income older adults find work. It matches eligible applicants (age 55+) with paid, part-time training assignments for nonprofit organizations.

Let’s Have a Conversation:

Do you feel ageism in your life, or is this a concept you haven’t personally felt? How has ageism impacted you? Is ageism getting worse for you the older you get? What do you do to counteract the ageist stereotype?

Shoppers Are Running Through Bottles of This Wrinkle-Erasing Serum Like Water—& It’s on Super Sale


If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, STYLECASTER may receive an affiliate commission.

Buzzy ingredients will continue to ease their way onto the skincare scene, but nothing will ever top retinoids and their alternative counterparts (I’m looking at you, bakuchiol). As a beauty editor, I’ve covered more anti-aging formulas than I care to count—that’s how I know which options are easily worth splurging on and which are not. And, let me tell you, many are not. 

Unsurprisingly, Ren Skincare’s Bio-Retinoid Youth Serum doesn’t appear on that list. The brand carries a vast line of effective formulas, and this one is no exception. It provides “retinol mirroring” results (more on that later), and is clinically proven to improve the appearance of wrinkles within seven (!!!) days of use, per the brand. It’s no secret plenty of beauty products claim to bring results fast, though rarely deliver. According to reviewers, Ren’s retinol serum doesn’t lie; one person said it left behind a notable difference within one night.

It must be why many shoppers have purchased the serum on repeat. “I am now on my third bottle and my skin looks and feels amazing,” raved one. “It sinks into the skin well and you don’t need a lot. I have a few fine lines on my forehead which have improved since the use of this serum. I have combination, sensitive skin and this doesn’t break me out—definitely worth the investment.” 

Here’s the scoop on the serum’s clean ingredients: The brand’s plant-derived alternative to retinol, bidens pilosa, acts as the main wrinkle-reducer, while the inclusion of ceramides soothe irritation, and niacinamide boosts radiance and minimizes hyperpigmentation across the face. Since it contains a less irritating retinol alternative, you’re unlikely to experience redness or flaking with use, so even those with sensitive skin can safely apply the serum.

Need further proof of its capabilities? Just check out this photo straight from the brand’s own trial-runs. Smile lines are noticeably reduced after 14 days of use, with even more visible results apparent after 28 days of use.

“This really works. Used the samples first to check that I loved it before purchasing as it’s one of the more expensive products. But for a reason,” shared another reviewer. “One application makes your skin feel tighter. But used over a week or so and you see results immediately.”

Copy that. To save a little on Ren Skincare’s Bio-Retinoid Youth Serum during the brand’s Friends & Family sale, just add anything to your cart to automatically for the discount.
