Thank you Wayne ! A lot of my beauty hacks are from you ! I'm excited you are watching Me and commenting! Wow! Sending you hugs, Barb ❤
Yes ,new to her channel and cannot believe her age, she looks beautiful ,her skin is incredible !
Thumbs up
@@takecontrolbeauty6402👍🙏😘🙏 What an Honor...WOW!!! GOD BLESS YOU BOTH BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE...👍🙏😇🙏
👍 I love that you addressed the sunscreen and foundation! LOL I'm 52 and aging gracefully (at least I think so) and I only use sunscreen when I am doing outdoor summer activities. I wesr foundation every day and my friends will tell you that I can't go to the mailbox without it. Thank you for all the tips and tricks and I promise to exfoliate!
Hon please don't worry about those people who insinuate that you have had a facelift. You clearly have been born with some gorgeous skin (my dad was also) and you took INCREDIBLE care of it! Good for you! You don't have anything to prove to anyone. I will start exfoliating...lol!
Gosh Nancy thank you so much ! I get tired of explaining myself! I'm a very honest person and would never deceit anyone! Your comment made me feel good! Love ya Barb❤
I have been exfoliating with St Ives since it came out. I do it once a week on Saturday in the shower. I love this product!! I did not know that you are having a battle with cancer. You are amazing & your positive attitude will give you the the power & strength to fight. So please continue to stay strong!! Your followers love & support you. You are in my prayers. Lots of hugs!!!
I am 67 and swear by exfoliation! I used to use the St Ives and now I use an Olay facial brush and a Neutrogena exfoliating gel. Would still use the St Ives but haven't seen it for a long time. I am not much for skin care products but I find this and some moisturizer are my best friends!
Hi Bobbi ❤ Exfoliating is key for sure it just brings ur skin to life! Sounds like you are on the right track to beautiful skin even when you get to my age of 80 :-) you go girl!! Hugs, Barb ❤
Your totally correct!! It does work if you put in the work. I will be 45 in 2 months and people think I’m in my 20’s. This is from the work I put in. I’ve done nothing to my face. I completely know it works. You give us hope that we can look great in our mature years to come. I love your video’s. Just found you yesterday and your extremely informative. -Nicole
Thank you for letting me know your routine. To take a little bit of time for yourself every day is nothing when you have such a great outcome. It really keeps you away from plastic surgery If you're consistent!! good for you, I can tell by the time you're my age you're gonna be a beauty. :) hugs, Barb ❤
Hi! I do take time for me, maybe not 45 minutes, but I’ve been caring for my skin since I was 13. I’m 51 now and have always been obsessed with skincare. You are 100% right about taking time for yourself to be more effective in your life. Keep being you 😉. And, I’m sending you well wishes!
Great comment I could not have said it better ! Good for you ! You know When I say 45 min that's getting ready too like putting clothes on and my wig and getting out the door so not bad ;) Sending you hugs , Barb ❤
@@takecontrolbeauty6402 oh wow! Not bad at all, is right! Anyway, you are beautiful and your tutorials are making a difference! Thank you ❤️
Me too! I couldn't say it better 🌷
I have been doing your facial massages for a week and I tell you, it works better than my NuFace device. I heard another RUclipsr mention years ago that her youthful skin in her 50's was due to the fact that she really massages her products well on her face and she uses her hands instead of face brushes. You both have me sold! You look amazing. Thanks for the free information and thanks for the reminder to exfoliate which I use to do but stopped. Yes, it is a very important step. I have a couple more decades before I turn 80, but I want my skin to look as good as possible without any botox, fillers, etc. (I'm not against them, just not for me). Lastly, thanks for clearing up the "friends" in the kitchen, lol. I watched a few of your videos and wondered, who the heck were you talking to LOL!!
Just found you! Re: the sunscreen...I don't use it either. Any time I've tried it feels too heavy or mask-like. Plus I try to get my vitamin D naturally. Approximately 15 minutes of neutral sun exposure feels fabulous and gives me a natural color. And yes, people do freak when they know you don't use sunscreen! Baking soda is a nice exfoliate as is cornmeal. But the apricot fragrance always lures me! You look fabulous!
Oh, I know not wearing sunscreen is such a beauty no no, I get it all the time :-) I don't recommend anybody not wearing sunscreen but for me, like you, it didn't work for me. I don't stay out in the sun that long but you're right a little bit of sun is great for the soul. We all need some to make us feel good, look good and stay healthy. Thank you for your comment. Sending hugs, Barb.❤
I can't believe people would ask you about a face lift, because there are telltale signs of one and you don't have those features. You are the best, and sooooooo real about everything. 🥰🥰🥰
Oh gosh thank you I need to bottle that comment and just pin it on all the naysayers who insist I did. I have not for sure. Your the best. Hugs. Barb xoxoxo
Hello Barbara, I must have missed this video. I am 74 and have always taken care of my skin but not been one to exfolliate. I watched the full morning routine and since then, exfolliated. However, I will also do whole body after your recommendations. I just love, your easy way of chatting and your funny expressions as if I am sat in front of you. I pray that our Father will show you the way He wants you to go for healing. A huge hug, 🥰🥰🥰
Sun exposure is major problem for skin. I am light skinned and had a terrible sunburn on a shady day when i was a teenager. I never liked being out in the sun. This probably saved my skin and have no age spots and only some wrinkles above my lips. Also I am 83 years old. I love makeup and know how to apply it. And yes, I am faithful to moisturize etc. Hey Barb people ask me if I’ve had a facelift too. 😊
Joan what a great comment! You made me smile ! You know Joan just because we are maturing doesn't mean we are invisible and it doesn't mean that we shouldn't fix ourselves up anymore even if you're around the house by yourself it's still makes us feel good. Good for you you go girl made my day. ! Hugs, Barb ❤
"Use common sense"
Omgosh I love you 😊❤️ I'm going to get back to exfoliating this weekend 🙏
You got this! Can't wait to hear how you did with exfoliating ❤
I asked my son, "How old do you think this lady is"?He replied, "About 30". I agree. Needless to say, it blowed his mind how old you are. You look wonderful!
Omgoodness hug that son of yours lol tell him when u live a good positive life it will reflect inside first then outside :0) thank you for making my day ! Hugs, Bat❤️
I am so happy to finally hear someone say they do not wear sunscreen. I am 59 & I have never wore sunscreen. Just like you I do not like the texture the less product I have on my skin during the day the better for me because of my oily skin. I am new to your channel! I have watched a few and you are So Beautiful & such a lovely personality thank you! 🥰♥️
I guess we're not in the sunscreen club are we such a beauty No no lol I would never tell anybody not to wear it just didn't work out for me or you. Haha i'm so happy to have u join my channel. It's so good to have you here. We're gonna be good friends.! Hugs, Barb ❤
👍Never a sun worshipper either and so glad now at 65 my skin looks pretty good. My dear Mom always told me to take care of my skin, stopped using soap in my late teens. Still searching for more ideas which you have given me many. God Bless You and stay Healthy.
Good for you ! You don’t think when ur young the damage sun will cause ur skin when ur older! I never laid in the sun 🌞 Hugs Barb 💕💕
Glad to hear you've never used sunscreen. Me either. Since my first trip to a Korean women's spa over 20 yrs ago I've been a big fan of exfoliation.
Good for you ! Exfoliating makes a huge difference! ❤️❤️
At age 23 I fell asleep in the sun and got bad sunburn, also laid out and burned in sun few other times, my decolatege, (neck to chest) has been wrinkled since my early twenties. But thanks to you I'm now starting exfoliating and skin care ❤ thanks Babs
Thanks for sharing!! This made me feel good. You're at such a great age to start a good skin care routine I'm telling you if you do it consistently, you'll save yourself from faceless and fillers as you age. My granddaughter is a teen she takes such good care of her skin. She said she learned it from the best which of course is me. 🥰Thank you for being here I so appreciate you. I am sending you big hugs and thank you for this great comment! Barb ❤️PS I know it's hard when you're young and traveling around but try to stay out of the sun as much as you can you will thank me when you're older :0)
👍🏻😘 Babs, I adore you and all of your tips you share with us. You're absolutely amazing in every way. Your beauty is deeper than skin deep. It's all the way in to your beautiful heart.
I'm keeping this short, because you have lots of people here. You're amazing answering all of your comments on the last one. Love you my beauty.🌹
Can't wait for your 80th Birthday party!🎈❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻
P.S. I just ordered a 6 pack of the St. Ives apricot scrub on Amazon. I love it. Smells so refreshing. Would never want to be without it thanks to you. ❤️
Hello Mary, thank you so much and thank you for always being so supportive of my channel and happy for me and you know I love you so much. I love doing what I do. I love trying to inspire people I love letting people know that maturing does not mean we're invisible we have so much to offer. I've always been high maintenance because my mother was high maintenance. She passed it down to me and I passed it down to Bella and Bella is Trying to pass it down to my daughter lol I'm happy that you're happy for me about my viral video I'm like amazed. I just wanna inspire people to be the best version of themselves They can be and to try to be happy in this negative world that we live in plus try to look the best we can too!!! why not !! I mean whether it's make up or wigs clothes whatever. I'm happy that you'll be coming to my virtual birthday party. I think you'll enjoy my photos of my life and some of my family we're just gonna have a really good time. So you're not bringing the martinis this time😅
Love you and I will see you soon. Oh I'm so glad you ordered some apricot scrub. I love that stuff doesn't it make a difference in your skin texture. It's amazing.!
I'm trying to answer most comments! It's getting hard but I'm on it :) love you to pieces ! Babs ❤😘🥰
👍🏼💖 Love you and how helpful your videos are! I am 55 and you’re teaching me healthy habits, both physically and mentally 🤗💫 I have to say, I really cracked up when you were talking about the scrub and how vigorously to use it and you finally summed it up by saying USE COMMON SENSE….🤣🤣 Keeping it real!! Love from Las Vegas 🧚🏻🪄💖
Hi Michelle thank u for this comment ! At 55 to hear ur fixing up and taking care of ur skin is just great ! When u get to be 80 the payoff will be so worth it ! Sending hugs, Barb ❤
❤👍👍👍74 years young and still taking care of my skin and love makeup DAILY....I enjoy your channel...ty,,,Blessings to you and yours...
Wonderful! That's the best news ever. Who says we have to be invisible just because we're maturing and if we wear make up, we're not natural. Oh my goodness that's the worst line ever :-) good for you girlfriend keep it up.! Hugs, Barb ❤️
Your skin is so beautiful! I'm 60. If I can keep the skin I have today until I am 80, I will be thrilled! If my skin improves, bonus. I just bought the lot at Ella Freda. Thank you so much for sharing 💓
You are the perfect age to start really having a great skin routine ! I have used many really good products on my skin but when I started using Ella Freda I couldn't believe how my skin came alive ! If I had started these products in my 60's I bet I would look 20 lol okay not 20 but making a point! ☺️ ur gunna see a difference so fast ! Don't forget to exfoliate first on a clean face ! I'm excited to hear how u are doing so let me know in an email ! Sending you hugs, Barb ❤️
Thank you so much…I have always taken care of my skin but never been in to a lot of make up..(Ponds Skin Cream)The problem now is I’m noticing wrinkles…aways told I look younger until lately…lots of wrinkles around my mouth have not smoked n over 50 yrs. Make up feels so heavy on my face…and can’t find any mascara that doesn’t affect my eyes…I turn 76 and feel like I look a lot older. I will try exfoliating and see if that helps..the photo is me 10 yrs ago..now I won’t even let anyone take my picture. I am a Christian so I know God will help me conquer this feeling. Thanks for being so honest…and quite entertaining.
Wrinkles have a way of creeping in. lol Sometimes it is just our expressions or the way we are animated when we talk that gives us those wrinkles in certain places. I was always a believer that putting product on your face after we exfoliate, keeps our wrinkles at bay and softer as we talk. Makeup to me has always been a barrier to the outside elements which is why I never leave home without it. I think if you did some lymphatic drainage massaging daily and put some great creams on your face and a lite weight foundation you will see your line start to just soften some. I do not think that once we get them we can totally reverse aging but we sure can soften our look and help the toxins diminish by doing the lymphatic drainage massaging. It has worked for me. I have always been so sensitive to mascaras but the one I like now is Maybelline sky high and Essence lash princess. They are the only ones that do not make my eyes itch. Hope that inspires you a bit. Love, Barb xoxo
I discovered you and went and got a gua sha right away, your skin is absolutely fabulous! I always have taken care of myself, I just made 61 and no wrinkles, take care of my face and neck daily at morning and night, I use sunscreen daily and drink water. Lady, you are amazing and seeing Wayne Goss commenting on your skin......WOW, that must feel very good! Looking forward to check more of your videos.😍
Hi Clara Thank you so much I so appreciate the comment. I'm glad you take care of your skin. I just don't understand why some women think it's unnecessary to put any product on their face or to fix them selves up? It kind of boggles my mind.I guess to each their own but not me I want to be the best version of myself that I can possibly be and I sure am not going down without a fight😅!
Yes that was exciting Wayne Goss commented on both my videos ! Sending you Hugs, Barb ❤
@@takecontrolbeauty6402 I totally agree with you, I like to look good for myself first of all, it makes me feel good to see me looking my best, it gives me energy and like I am in control, just as your RUclips name. Big hug to you and thank you for responding to my comment, I have been noticing that you respond to most of the comments left in your videos and that is super nice. I still have to watch a bunch of them, the All Bout' the Neck one is very good! I make time to do all this stuff and it feels so good! Hugs! ❤💙
Thank you Clara I try to respond to most comments. They are getting to be so many now but I really try. love ya, Barb xoxox
I like me better with makeup and jewelry on every day... even when I get up super early for my grandkids to get here at 6:30, yes I put my makeup on just like I do every other day, I feel good then. Takes me about that long too, and having my protein shake, putting things away, I have my own routine. I've done this forever and I'm 61, and I'll continue!!! Love ya bunches, can't wait for your birthday party.....
You sound exactly like me ! I could've written that comment :-) I took care of my grandkids since they were born and I did the same thing in the morning before they came over I got myself fixed up. I didn't want to scare them lol joking, but I just did and then I was ready to go for the day to take them places and I felt good about myself .......me first then they can all have me for what they need me for! Well, that didn't sound right but you know what I mean lol thanks for your comment. You're just a mini me. :) hugs, Barb❤
Just to let you know, I have just now purchased some of the Ella Freda products 😀I’m in the UK, and fortunately they do ship here. Excited to try 😀xx
I do not believe in sunscreens. I would only use it if I was going to be in the sun on a day out. Never, ever would I use it as part of my skincare routine. So I do exactly what u do!! ⚘👍❤
I totally agree! Ur my virtual sister! ❤️❤️
Thank you for being honest. My problem is my own fault. I am 73. I never took care of my skin because for years I saw no problems and I was lucky my skin always looked great. But, surprise all of a sudden now in my opinion my skin is bad and wrinkled with large pores and lots of wrinkle like I have been working outside all these years. Have been home and retired for over 10 years and with Covid recently I did not go out in public. So at this point I will do what I can and hopefully it will help my skin from getting worse. I want to thank you for awakening my skin health awareness.

I'm always willing to give out free advice to anyone! Just here to help a girl out. ❤️
I just found your channel this afternoon and I am just so amazed! You are a humble, beautiful soul and you look fabulous! I love your candid honesty and appreciate it. Don't give the grumpies a second thought! I do take care of my skin but like you said, life gets in the way, so many to care for and so much to do, work, work work. I need to be better at putting myself first. I can only count myself as blessed if I look like you when I am your age. 🙂
I'm so glad you found my channel. Good to have you here my friend. Yes sometimes we get busy helping everybody else doing for everybody else that we have to say hey, wait a minute what about me? I am important too and then the skin routine begins lol you just be the best version of yourself you can be because you deserve it. ! Hugs, Barb ❤️
I’m 67 and new to your channel. Had no idea exfoliating was so important. No wonder my foundation never looks right.
Hi Sandra, and welcome to my channel so good to have you here! Oh yes, exfoliating gets rid of all the dead skin and allows ur skin to breathe better which intern allows your creams and your foundations to stay on better. Exfoliating helps your creams absorb into your face and not just lay on top. Try it you'll love it and see a huge difference.! Hugs, Barb ❤️
👍I’m so blessed to have found you, I’m 82 and people don’t believe it. ❤❤❤❤❤
I am so happy you found me too and how nice ppl do not believe you are 82. So happy to have you here. Hugs, Barb xoxox
Exfoliating is essential…so funny, I’ve been using St. Ives apricot scrub for decades & I’m 69 yrs old) I have it hanging in my shower, and use it twice a week in the shower before turning on the water 💦 skin feels so soft afterwards and my body lotion just locks every thing in. Oh, by the way, I never use sunscreen either…!! 😊 & wear makeup everyday as well. Have a nice day & beautiful week ahead. PS, I’m RSVP (yes) to your virtual birthday bash…I’ll bring the wine 🍷…lol. 🎊 xox ❤
Karen, you're my kind of girl we think alike and We do things the same too. How about that :-) yes I hope everybody tries the St Ives body scrub!!! Omg!! Im glad you realize like me, how silky soft your skin is after your shower it's amazing isn't it. I mean u cant you just worry about your face because everything down to your toes is attached to that, so why wouldn't you want the rest of your body to look as good as your face, right??? thanks for leaving me this comment. I haven't seen you for a bit. It's good to see you. ! Hugs Barb ❤️
I'm 72, and I've used St. Ives cucumber scrub for a few years, but never the Apricot Fresh Skin exfoliator. I'll have to try to find that one! For the last year or so I've made my own "Giada deLaurentis recipe" for a light scrub. I just mix Rice Flour (which is the fine milled grit part), with a little olive oil and whatever essential oil you like. I make a little tub of it at a time to keep in the shower. She said it's so gentle it can be used everyday on your face and body. Guess the olive oil is good for the skin too, but you rinse it off of course, and then pat dry. I've always had dry skin so maybe soaking in a vat for an hour would be more beneficial to me!! LOL That Gua-Sha stone intrigues me, but I honestly don't think I'd take the time to use it as it should be used. I know I'd start out motivated, and I know it would feel good and be relaxing, but I fear it would just be one more thing stuck in the cupboard before long! It wouldn't take up too much space though would it?! 😉 Maybe I should......ok I will.......maybe.......I'll let you know! How long have you been using it, and do you really like it? Praying for positive news after your scan Barb. I'm sure it will be, you look way too healthy and vital to have a serious issue. Great video! I really do agree with the exfoliation before anything could really absorb well, and do it's job. All our hot, dry homes in our cold winters sure don't help! I accept your 80th BD Invitation! I'll bring a nice appetizer and a bottle of champagne! ☺~M~
I tried it 40 years ago - way to HARSH. I use Rodan & Fields - much less irritating.
Too - what happened to my other ‘o’, LOL 🥴
Hi Mavis I know some ppl make their own scrubs ! I never have but a friend of mine years back made hers too then I put her on to this St Ives and she loved it ! That said I'm sure making ur own would be great !
Mavis if u don't want to buy a Gua Sha stone you can honestly use your knuckles. I was doing that before I bought a Gua Sha Stone! if you just take ur knuckles and run them up your jawline to your ear and then down to your chest it feels so good you're not gonna believe it. So if you don't think you'll use the stone after you buy it knuckles works like a charm.:)
My little humidifiers are working like a charm!m in this dry house Love ya and see you at my virtual birthday party ! Love to you and Roy ❤❤ Barb
@@takecontrolbeauty6402 So I did find the St. Ives apricot scrub and have used it a few times. I like it and will continue to use it. Also got the Gua-Sha rose quartz stone, and have used it 3 times and it feels nice. I've watched a couple youtube video's on the ways to use it. Apparently I was holding it wrong the first time I tried it.....video girl said it should be on a slant & not straight up which is what I was doing. It does feel good and it brings a flush to my skin so it's increasing circulation. I'll try my best to keep using it! If nothing else, it's pretty to look at! :)
Thank you for being so amazing, you've come my way today and I believe for a reason. You made me feel so much better after a hard day. My Mum is exactly two months younger than you,and even I look older than you. You are my new gift and inspiration. Thank you for being funny , beautiful and wise - wishing you a fantastic birthday 🎉💖😍
Thank you for your comment! It made me smile! ☺️❤️
OMG 😱
that is the best scrub EVER !!! Truly !! And inexpensive too 👍
Not just your skin darling..you have a youthful presence...as I run out to buy the apricot scrub...love love the charcoal sugar scrub
Oh gosh thank you ! Let me know if u try the apricot scrub ❤️❤️
You are the cutest. I’m getting some exfoliating stuff STAT!
Thank you Debbie! Yes exfoliating is key ! Sending you Hugs, Barb ❤️
Your skin is beautiful I just started watching your videos and I am going to take your advice I am am 78 but look 50 all my life I have been taking care of my face only neglected the rest of my body only scrub my face with sugar use Dove bar soap on face and body but never scrub the rest of my body thank you for your videos starting to scrub my whole body starting today💐
Thank you for finding me! I think exfoliating is one of the most important steps of taking care of your skin, getting rid of dead skin is very important. Hugs Barb xoxo
I just found you! This is great information! I am so motivated to do your system
You got this! Thank you and thank you for finding me ! Hugs, Barb ❤️
Hi Babs, I am a new subscriber. You look amazing and I am ordering some of your products and watching some of your older videos. I wondered if you have a routine for your under eye area specifically? You have no bags!! Just curious where you live?
👍🏻I’m like you, I always got up early to shower ,hair, makeup I’m at 45 minutes too. I’m 57 and will always do it . I love makeup and I like to look good even if I’m staying home. Thanks for the video.
You are truly my virtual sister ! I'm right with you :) to me when u look good and take time for yourself you feel good inside too! Thank you for hang'n out and thank you for your comment! Hugs, Barb ❤️
I absolutely love watching you and spending time with you. I also love to dedicate time for me daily. I allow myself an hour to get ready. I deserve time for myself. My family is important to me as well. I have taken care of my skin since my teens. I will be 55 and I am aging gracefully.
Sally good for you ! We are important too and taking time for ourselves is imperative to our well being! Thank you for ur comment! Hugs, Barb ❤
Thank you Babs for being the voice of reason…once again! I LOVE my Ella Frieda products and this was a great reminder to exfoliate. I bought the St Ives after your first video on it and it really does work! I’ll be 74 in May and am a Florida gal since age 3…definitely have some of those sun and age spots, but still get compliments on my skin! Love to you Babs and HAPPY 80th!🥳🎉🎈🎂🤗
Thank you Becky. Well see ur proof that even though you live in Florida in the sun you can take care of your skin, and you can still be good and be the best version of yourself you can by taking care of yourself ! We all need a little bit of sun, I think that's overrated that we must stay out of it , it feeds the body vitamin D makes us happy. Nothing like a bright sunny day to cheer us up. Now if we're laying in the sun with iodine for hours at a time that's a different story. Lol Good to know that you're taking care of your skin sending you hugs., Barb ❤️
Love the video Barbs. I also love wearing my foundation. God bless.
Hello Barb ! I have been thinking of you so much ! Hope you are doing ok and your pain has lessened. I love this video. I also use this St. Ives scrub ! I do it every Sat and Wed. I get compliments on my face freq. I have been using Ella Freda on my every day and it makes a wonderful difference. My cosmetics go on so well using it. But I do love St. Ives all over my body. I will have to try the Ella Freda scrub. I love you my friend. Hope to hear from you soon ! XOXO❤️ hello to Denny !
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😉🥰🤗😘❤️Luv ya Babs! Happy pre-Birthday to you!🎉 I’m turning 70 in May! Just wanted to add that I love makeup too. It makes a tremendous difference. I haven’t found the perfect foundation or routine yet, but I keep practicing. YOU have been a big inspiration for me though! I have been wearing wigs too for about 2 years due to an autoimmune issue that causes a form of Alopecia. That’s how I found your channel. I love wigs & don’t mind telling people I wear them. I think it helps others. Thank you for all you do! 💜
I luv u too and thank you for this comment! Good that u take care of urself and u love wigs too! Glad u found me ! I am telling you hair makes a big difference in our self-confidence. This wigs today are absolutely amazing. When I did wigs in the salon for women who were going through chemotherapy to see the look of happiness on their face when they put on a styled wig was priceless ! You know the importance of hair to women is extremely important. I have a wig review coming this week. I'm excited to show this wig ! Thank you for being here and thank you for your comment. Hugs, Barb.❤
Im in my early 30s and starting to take care of my skin, you give me hope 💖 you look great
You got this! By the time ur my age the payoff will be so worth it ! Hugs, Barb ❤
Im in Michigan and I don't ever where sun screen. Too much chemical for the skin. If I'm boating I use zinc on my nose and cheeks.
I do have a few sun spots at age 54. I put frankincense on them and it lightens them.
I use natural products and most things work amazing for me.
I worked for an Asian lady and she's In her 60s and she's definitely young looking.
They use milk products on their skin, and rose water.
My Mom and I used to soak our hands in ivory dish soap and do our cuticles together.
I have frown lines from pain. And marionette lines. I try to lessen them with tapping and exfoliation.
Thanx for your videos.
Oh yeah zinc I use to take that by a company called Shaklee years ago. They said it was great for your skin and your brain. I forgot about it. I just bought frankincense oil for my sore back actually bc someone said it helps. It doesn't do much for that area but did stop the spasms some. They use it for a lot of joint pain. Where do you get yours if I may ask. Keeping your skin exfoliated and moisturized helps those marionette lines that and the lymphatic massage drainage and facial exercise too. I do it all. lol My mom loved her Ivory dish soap too. Forgot about that also. Thanks and hugs, Barb xoxoxo
I agree and have similar experience with sunscreen. Especially some years ago they were terrible. Some sun is ok and not going to destroy your skin. UV light is healing in proper quantities. With your fair skin, and in northern latitudes, the spf in makeup is obviously working for you!
Yes, sunscreen is kind of an individual choice. I would never say not use it. Just what I have done works for me ! Also you're absolutely right UV rays are so important to us in so many ways. Everything in moderation everything! Hugs, Barb ❤
Hi sis, I watched your video yesterday and finally getting around to making some comments. I have to admit that in the summer when I go to the pool or I’m outdoors at the beach or on vacation I do use sunscreen on my face but in the winter I’m not out as much so I don’t. My skin is pretty good for my age so I’ll just continue doing what I’m doing. I go back-and-forth with different kinds of exfoliators but I always seem to return to the one by Skinn. It just works well with my skin. When you exfoliate your skin your make up and skin products go on so much better. Hoping your channel continues to skyrocket because nobody deserves it more than you. Love you, Dolores. ❤️🥰🌹
Hi sis and thank you for being excited for me and always so supportive of my channel! I think when u exfoliate all ur products stay on so much better ! Brightens tightens and smooths that's exfoliating:) love you lots and talk soon. ! Hugs, Barb ❤
👍🏻 You look fabulous! I’m 54 and pray I can look as fabulous as you when I’m your age! Your last video popped up in my “for you” section so I clicked on it. I really enjoyed watching it and this video. Im going to check out some of your previous videos as well. I love your honesty and sense of humor!! Recently I’ve really started looking into products for my skin and anti-aging. I’ll be sure to check out your product links😉
Hi I am so happy that I showed up in your feed. That makes me happy. You look very beautiful by your picture. It really doesn't take much effort every day to have beautiful skin. You don't have to do all the layers that I do as long as you do some thing !! you can tell by taking this skin test that it's working for your skin and you do it consistently, then you know you're on the right track of having beautiful skin at 80 :) thanks for watching my videos. I appreciate you thank you for subscribing. ! Hugs, Barb ❤️
You have encouraged me to start taking better of my skin. I have really been ignoring it and it really shows. Your skin is beautiful!
That's great ! This is why I do what I do to try to help women and to reach out to show them how they can be the best version of themselves that they can possibly be. Good for you you made me feel special.! Hugs, Barb ❤
I am new to your channel I have good skin for 68. I always have moisturised with Olay more recently with niven as recommended by Nanny &the Moose ,other than that just wahwd with water.Know nothing about exfoliating face although do use scrubs on body and feet..You are educating me and your so inspirational .Thank you!☘️💚☘️
Thank you and I appreciate you being here. Sounds like you're doing a skin routine that's feeding your skin what it needs! You can always change it up a bit if u feel that's not working like you would like ! ! You can Try different products if you want to but if you find something that really works for you then I say stick to it as long as you do it consistently and massage really well. Oh I know nanny loves her Nivea and her castor oil. She cracks me up. I love her! thanks for watching me and yes exfoliate makes a big difference and helps your creams absorb better on ur face ! Hugs, Barb ❤️
Wow! I love your channel ❤️😍. Thanks for sharing.
🤍Red is your color!🤍 Thank You! 🤍 Love You!🤍 Much Love & Gratitude!!🤍
Thank you ! I felt cheerful today :) ❤️❤️
Hi Babs Thanks for the great advice. I'm just building up my skincare products. i've been on this journey for about 3 months. I've tried a few things and have some devices. No results yet. However a week ago I started exfoliating. Its going to take some time I think. My neck is a mess. Doing the best I can, very deflating. I find it upsetting, when I'm doing all this stuff and no results yet. Will try the St Ives exfoliator if I can find it. I have one that you put on your face and rub in but I use a massager, battery operated a bit like yours. I can feel my skin tingling afterwards. Then I wash it off. I exfoliate 3 times a week. I'm 70 but don't think I look that age, but still do need some work. I understand that these things can take some time. I might try a chemical exfoliator, once a week. Might make my own. I love your channel. I hope you are doing well. Do you have an evening routine as well? xx
I love your youthful humour most really!
Enjoy your content. Thanks 🙏👍.
GIANT THUMBS UP!!
Absolutely, Numero Uno, no sunscreen, exfoliate. It's never too late to start! Conquer those 11's (face, too)..... dab on a few drops AM & PM of Advanced Clinicals Peptide Serum $13 on Walmart. Goes a long way too. I saw results in 1 wk on my 11's. Ck pkg result estimates. See ya on 2/24! Happy Birthday in advance.
Barb, you are incredible and lovely. You are my role model. ❤
Wow, thank you! I really appreciated that comment. Sending you hugs, Barb xoxoxox
Hi beautiful Barbara. You are sooo beautiful! How are you feeling? We miss you and your videos soooo much. Praying for you.
Thank you so much! I miss all of you too ❤️❤️
I have used baking soda for years in the shower mixed in with the shower soap. I really love melting a little coconut oil and mix in brown sugar. Leaves the skin yummy. Running boiling water down the pipes recommended. lol
Mary how are you ?? So good to see you ! I wish I could use coconut oils on my skin but I itch ! I've tried different brands but same results ! Glad it works for you that's awesome ! Hugs to you, Barb ❤️
I love watching your videos👀 You have the Most Beautiful Skin♥
Wow Wayne watched, your going big girls. You look amazing 👏.
Do short clips / TikTok
Yes I know right so nice Wayne stopped by! I adore him ! I am on TikTok but not much ! Shorts are not my thing bc I just like to chat with u all and be close and relax ! Maybe one day I'll do shorts ! I'll think about it :0) Hugs, Barb ❤️
I'm 65 and used to sun bathe and now I have a lot of sun damage. But I get up every morning, shower and do my hair and make up...weather I'm staying in and doing housework, or going out. I do it for me because I want to look like the best version if myself and if I look good on the surface I feel good on the inside.
Love that! You are my girl ! I say the same ❤️
I just came upon your videos today! You look amazing!!! I'm learning how to take care of my skin. I love your content. This is the fourth video I've watched today. Your video with your granddaughter was so sweet! I enjoy cooking with my grandchildren too😊 following your RUclips channel
Wow thank you for this comment and for watching my videos! I just want women to know that we are not invisible, no matter our age, and we can be the best version of ourselves that we can be. Thanks for hanging out with me. See you soon. Hugs, Barb.❤️
Hi Babs, I agree with everything you are saying. Exfoliating face and body is one of the most important things you can do. My Grandmother got me started on Vivan Woodard Skin Care at age 5. Like you I have always taking care of my face and myself. I Just love your channel and you look beautiful!!!!
Omgoodness Vivian Woodard skin care I think I remember that from years back I want to say my mom had some of that blast from the past. I also started very young taking care of my skin, because my mother always took care of her skin so I am just like her ! She always had her Jurgens lotions and her ponds cold cream out every morning every night, I guess we are a product of our environment. Lol my mom was a very beautiful woman and took pride in her self always. She was very high maintenance which is why am I maintenance too lol thanks for commenting. Sending hugs, Barb.❤
Viral!!! YES!!! You keep doing exactly what you're doing. THIS, a real woman, not a cartoon caricature of a human being, is what we're looking for. Nobody cares what a 30 something with great photoshopping skills is doing. You, my dear, are giving us what we want. Wonderful! I use that very exfoliator! Great stuff!
Breda ur comment brought happy tears to my eyes ! So many think I'm lying about a facelift or use a filter it's hurtful bc I am so honest ! Being on here, not telling the truth would be so dishonest. I am keeping it real and I am here to show you with the right skin care and the right tools. You can look great without a facelift. Thank you Brenda so much for your comment.! Hugs, Barb ❤❤❤
@@takecontrolbeauty6402 You're welcome, my friend! ❤️
My Darling you look absolutely lovely. I just subscribed to your lovely channel because I need to look great in my 80’s since the my my husband is 21 years younger than me 💋🥰
Thanks for subbing! Thank you for
the comment! My husband is 2 years younger and I almost didn't go out with him because I thought he was too young lol I was 30 he was barely 28 ! It would've been a big mistake :-) well 21 years younger is good motivation for you to be the best version of yourself you can be that's why I'm here to help :0) Hugs ❤️🌸❤️
New here. Looked through your playlist. Your skin looks even better now than 4 years ago! I so agree with what you're saying.
Thank you so much I appreciate that. Even my daughter has said looking through our pictures that we take as a family for various functions she said mom your skin looks better now than it did three years ago so I think it's the product at least for my skin. it has D-aged me lol if that's a word :) well slowed down the process, let's say that. :) sending hugs, Barb ❤️
So much common sense Barb, my new 71 year old skin starts right here, Sue UK🇬🇧. Xx
I’ve used that St. Ives since I was 14 years old. I’m 46 now. I absolutely love it. You just have to use it gently. So good.
Good for you with the apricot scrub:) you know a lot of people use this St Ives I'm very surprised. It's great but yes, you have to use common sense when you put it on you don't want to scratch your skin that's for sure but if used correctly, your skin is vibrant, smooth, youthful looking, and feels like a babies butt lol hugs, Barb ❤
Yes *Babs* ~ Exfoliate and Hydrate IS KEY !! to YOUR KINDA GLOW ! ~ hehe ~ I used that St. Ives product for years (decades) , and 'stopped' because many yt. Dermatologists said it would damage my skin. For goodness sakes, the 'kernels' were damaging and would tear at my skin. Well just today IAM wanting, needing, to exfoliate and will be purchasing it again and trying out your method, of PRE-Exfoliation BEFORE showering. I sometimes use baking soda mixed with my Cerave facial cleanser to gently remove my facial skin cells. Gentle and effective. It is exciting and life affirming to see Wayne Goss and many others LOVING YOU SO. Well done sugar ! Well done. You are like a 'sister' to us out here , looking for a 'relatable soul ' in our every day lives INNER and Outer Beauty Routine . Best of GOOD and Excellent Health and Wellness to you, your Family, and your " Circle of Influence " ~ Suse & Crew Vancouver Island BC CANADA ~*~
Sue like all exfoliators you have to use common sense bc they all have granules in them bc that is what exfoliates. If you scrub scrub then yes you will irritate but I have never had an issue. Good luck let me know. Hugs, xoxoxo
@@takecontrolbeauty6402 Hi Babs ~ yes I agree common sense makes GOOD sense. I purchased the apricot scrub and am loving it once again ~ gentle on my face for ALL exfoliation ~and more vigorous on the ol' body ! lol ~ I AM so happy to have found your yt. channel ~ only 5 sleeps until your BIG BIRTHDAY ! Have a Blessed and Beautiful Day Miss Barbara ~ Miss Beautiful Soul ~ Hugs all'round ~ Suse xox
You're not alone, I also do not wear sunscreen. The chemical in it are concerning. I'm 68 with no age spots.
Hi Babs, I really like your channel. I can't believe you have NO wrinkles at 80 yrs old! I know you take very good care of your skin. You must be the only 80 yrs old with no wrinkles. God bless 💖
Not many of us 80 yr olds on RUclips for sure :) I love pampering myself and my skin! Thank u so much for hanging out! Hugs, Barb ❤
You look amazing!!! Happy Bday!
I'm so glad I found your chanel. I love to see women growing older gracefully. You are absolutely beautiful. Such an inspiration. I have let myself go alot lately but this is a wake up call. Thank you❤
I love my skin care time! So comforting🥰
A big part of professional facials is exfoliation and then moisturizers are applied.
Look at that beautiful mamma!! You go girl ❤️❤️❤️
Oh and by the way, red looks
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G on you!!
Thank you ! Great comment to see this morning! Hugs to you Barb ❤️
@@takecontrolbeauty6402 ❤️😘❤️
I just watched your video I n exfoliating and I too used to use St Ives apricot scrub. Back when I was using that product I remember people complementing me on my skin. I even had women stroke my shoulders and tell me how soft I was which was a little weird lol but it did happen. Why I stopped using it is beyond me but thanks to you I will be using it again. You are gorgeous so what you are doing and have been doing is proof it works for you. I am going to be 70 in June and I think I went astray sort of speak by jumping from product to product and forgetting the tried and true. I do wear sunscreen but I spent all of my summers on the water and have sun damage from those days. I recently almost lost my nose from basal cell carcinoma but thanks to a wonderful dermatologist who did surgery to remove the cancer I still have my nose. She had to do skin graft but did a beautiful job. So anyway that’s why I use sunscreen. Thanks for your video’s gorgeous.
Omgoodness I'm so happy ur going back to exfoliating! Funny story about touching you lol it does make ur skin soft though ;) Good news about ur basil cell on ur nose that they did such a great job ! Great dr ! Most definitely use sunscreen! Sounds like u lived by water a lot and that's a good reason to use a sunscreen! I'm happy that I inspired u to maybe start a good skin routine of being the best version of yourself that you can be! Sending you love and hugs, Barb ❤
I just found your channel…you are looking GREAT! I’m a subscriber…thanks, Barb! ❤
Hi I am 73 I always took care of everyone but I always took time for myself my skin my face I will be 74 April 30. I don’t want any surgery but you’re on the same page I am and it was nice to see somebody that looks amazing. I’m going on a date that it will be. You are truly an inspiration to me I love listening to your videos. Thank you so much.❣️
Mary I enjoyed reading your comment! I am so happy that at 73 u are taking such good care of your skin!!!! It is so important for our attitude, self-worth, and to show that we are not invisible just because we are maturing! Did you say you were going on a date or did I miss read that comment? :) sending u hugs, Barb ❤
72 now, and have been taking care of my skin since I was 24. Mine doesn’t look as great as yours, but I believe genetics has a lot to do with that. However, when I tell people I’m 72 (because I’m proud of it!) they say I look like I’m in my 50’s. My daughter (35) also takes really good care of her skin. I instilled that in her from a very young age. The most important thing is always remove your makeup before you go to bed! And yes, exfoliating is a must.
That's awesome! So glad u take care of ur skin ! My mom passed that to me and I passed it to my own daughter and my granddaughter Bella , she is super fussy about her skin and she is a teen ! Hugs and thanks for sharing! Hugs Barb ❤️
Thank you for talking about sun screen. People are getting crazy with it, and I have the same issue, clogged pores, break outs, itchy. When I go on vacation I am using sun screen on my body, but thats it. I dont like sunscreens at all.
Oh you are my kind of girl. I know I have given the sunscreen a go a few times but nope. That is such a beauty no no. :) Hugs to you, Barb xoxoxox
Exfoliation is very important! I've had flakey skin all my life. I was in my 30s when I tried a lotion with lactic acid in it. What it did was unbelievable. I was watching TV one night on the floor with my legs out in front of me. The light from the TV was making a shine on my leg. I'd never seen that before! I looked at my leg to see what was wrong. It was just skin without layers of dead skin covering it up! I WAS GLOWING! I don't know if I have KP (no bumps) or what, but if I go without lotion (using AmLactin now) then start using it again I probably loose 4 pounds!
Good to see your beautiful face, I'll go back and watch the rest of your video now! ❤️
Thanks for cheaper alternative! 🥰
I need to be better to my face, thanks for the help!
Nancy, what a great comet it made me laugh. The glow of your legs with the TV too funny and losing 4 lbs 😂 I'm glad you found a solution because there's nothing worse than dry flaky skin. That's why I love to exfoliate bc my skin is like a babies butt. Lol sending you hugs, Barb ❤️

😊 I can't wait for your birthday party!💃 Let me know if I can bring something!
🎈🎉🎈
Thanks for sharing, your skin first of all is a gift from God, the creator of heaven and earth. And I am happy to watch your video.Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
Thank you, bought St Ives scrub, going to do what you've advised, can't wait! Your skin is amazing, I'm 70 and thought I had good skin, but nothing like yours, so exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate. .. love 💕
Hope you enjoy it and let me know the difference in ur skin ! I'm excited to hear ! Hugs, Barb ❤️
Omg, this lady look 50 years!
Oh Michele what a great comment to wake up to this morning. Thank you sending you big hugs., Barb ❤️
@@takecontrolbeauty6402 you are welcome 💜
Great Video Barb.
You are looking FABULOUS. Xxx❤️
Thank you so much! I love you Cathy ❤️❤️❤️
😉love watching you Barb! Happy 80th!
OMG, I love The Ives scrub. I am new to your channel and I can not believe how youthful you look. I hope I can learn and get my skin looking better, I am not aging well.
Hello you look so cute. I love that you are sharing. Exfoliating is so important for aging skin. The cell turnover is so slow or non-exsistent. It really helps my 60+skin. Yes I have used that before and it does work St Ives. Wow never used all over my body. I heard you not the girls. Okay back of the hands too. I am so happy that I stopped by and get back in the routine of exfoliating.Yes we got to buy wigs with our checks.🤣 I enjoyed this so much even with your skin turning yellow. You are hilarious. I will be back for sure.
Thank you what a great comment each line was great. You made me laugh. hugs to you my friend and keep on exfoliating. :) Bqrb xoxox
@@takecontrolbeauty6402 You are so welcome and welcoming. I will see you soon for sure. 💛
I totally agree with you about aging gracefully. You look terrific! 👋
Thank you Sharon ! ❤❤
I found the Palmers vitamin E body butter and it’s awesome . It also got rid of those red patches that came out of no where in the last couple of years . My skin stays soft for a long time after each use. It changed the texture of my skin too. I have very sensitive skin too- fragrance will dry my skin out . I have used many different body butter- I loved the almond body butters from ULTA- but this stuff bears that and is less expensive at around 9 dollars a tub .
I loved the palmers bust cream for all over my body ! I actually forgot about it ! I need to get it ! Hugs ❤️
You have the best looking almost 80 skin I have ever soon. However many steps you take to achieve that is obviously the right amount for you so who's to say it's too many.🤷🏼♀️ I'm 65. Been taking care of myself since I got invited to a Mary Kay party in my 20's. You are an inspiration to many! Oh ya...Fred get a life.🤣
What's to good to be true? That my skin looks good or that I actually made it to 80? lol
I use to sell Mary Kay cosmetics. Back in the day it wasn't as great as it is today for us oily skinned gals. But My clients loved it and I made such a difference in their skin on the first party I had. I remember this one girl was so wrinkled and smoked and she was mad she was even there but by the time I got done with her everyone was looking at her like a deer in headlights bc she looked 20 years younger. That was my best party ever. lol She stayed my customer until I left the company then I transferred her to a friend. Sh quite smoking and her skin was flawless. Best stuff ever for dry skin. Thank you for hang'n out.
Bless you for sharing yourself with all of us. 🎂 happy birthday 🎈🎁
Thanks for the birthday wish! 🥰
When I use sunscreen, I tend to burn more. Don’t know why and I do use a foundation with an SPF so I think that counts.
You are an inspiration!
Excellent topic. Exfoliating is so important.
Happy birthday Barbara, you look gorgeous as always. I hope your health is improving. Love and prayers 💕🙏
Hi Kim good to see you and thank you for being here! I'm working on healing ! Hugs , Barb ❤️
