I’m 70, and I love it that you dare to show the world how to do these things. I could not imagine doing it myself. I actually do these things. I can tell you this much. Not only are you my new best girlfriend, I respect that your passion to help other women far exceeds any pride. How lovely you are! Thank you. I subscribed and I look forward to seeing more of your videos. Thank you so much for being who you are.

I went back and looked. You are right, she looks great without make-up. She also looks great with make up. I wouldn't say better one way or another, just good in different ways.
I am SO with you there girl! No leg hair to shave at 56, but I'm whacking off the moustache and the nose hair with a weed whacker! Also, nobody told me I was going to get grey hairs in my freaking eyebrows, I feel like all my hair priorities have changed!!!!!
I’m sooo subscribing I am 35 but you are so wonderful and talk about things that other women are so afraid to talk about kudos for your courage I’m loving it.
I've been shaving my face since I was 27 yrs old (I'm now 69 yrs old). I had "fur" on my face (heavier than peach fuzz), but contrary to your experience, I have grown a beard so I use a twin blade disposable razor to take care of that, but by the next day there's rough stubble again. I'm so glad to know that there's lots of other women out there with this same problem. Thanks for sharing.
Yep..its not true!! You should NOT tell everyone doesn't grow back thicker or stubble..I was told .I started shaving and was very disappointed when did exactly that !!! I was so selfish conscious..worried men would notice. Not even dating ,im afraid that some guy would find out and I'd be horrified. ..mine (does ) grows back over night..so fast. I sometime already have by evening same day ..I hate it !!..I hate thinking have to do forever. I have less stubble by just using tweezers ..it stinks. Takes longer plucking but goes deeper pulling from root more .so you have few days to til again..it nice you have enough income. If can afford to keep buying new razors etc..they are not cheap .and im in very limited budget ..not everyone is as fortunate.so no one size dont fit all . This is why went back to tweezing .i have tons of razors, shave gel . At 60 .really don't grow on my legs .I'd rather did..I hate dealing with on face 😒🙄

Mine got so bad, thick and dark, maybe from plucking since age 30, now 66, and for a long time I’ve resorted to using a man’s electric Norelco shaver which does it well. I have curly hair, so plucking and blade shaving. created ingrown hairs which is it’s own big problem. No ingrowns using the electric.
I agree - perfect comment. Beth is keeping things real. Also exfoliating does not happen so easily after fifty. Fine details of grooming can make a big difference!

" I apparently have no pride" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Great vid... Wish I had seen this 35 years ago when my husband saw my face backlit and said that I needed to shave. All that did was hurt my feelings and give him a nice peaceful night with me not speaking to him.
I’m so glad you’re so honest about how things happen (peach fuzz, stray black wirey hairs that appear a few times a year, & the nose hairs that could be beaded & celebrated if you so desire)! I never knew I would develop all of THIS, as I aged. I use a flashlight to look up my nose to make sure I’ve gotten all of the millions of gray & black hair that have appeared. Have you ever seen an old man with long gray nose hairs that reflect light? Yes, I want to make sure you can’t see mine from space. I applaud you for being real. From the time we hit puberty to the time we leave this earth our face is our fortune. I’m pushing 70 & It’s taking longer to look good, but I can look good for my age. Thanks for staying beautiful & positive! BTW, I’m taking Tango lessons! 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
I have been shaving since my teens, was always afraid someone would find out. I'm in my sixties and still have to shave but thanks for making me feel better about it.
This video and ones like it are really nice. People like me that grew up without a mom sometimes feel like they didn't learn important lessons along the way that were key. Thank you
I’m 30 something and sometimes I think my life is over and I’m so old to do certain things, watching your video really gave me some perspective on getting old gracefully ❤❤❤
Hey friend, this lady is absolutely right. I am 71 and have been shaving since i was early 30's. I have NO wrinkles on my face and I wear very little makeup. I'm always "tapping water" on my face and letting my skin absorb it. Always wear day cream. You will notice the difference. The peach fuzz keeps growing but not as much and no beard will grow.

Thank you for your video. HOWEVER, this is YOUR experience. Others have experienced the exact opposite and now regret ever starting to shave. It is a gamble and one I have decided not to take based on others experience. Yes I would love smoother looking makeup - but someday when I'm older that won't be as important but the black beard I could possibly have would be just horrible.
Each skin type is different. A darker hair would show stubble no matter how fine. We darker skin tones, can't get away with this as easily. I'd never touch a razor to my face, I'd end up with man-like facial hair. I do hair removal creams myself for upkeep, years after laser hair removal treatment. And you are lovely btw, thanks for showing it like it is and what works -for you- in real life. That honesty is inspiring. You've a new subscriber
I have a hormone problem and my hair has never been peach fuzz since I was in my 20's. My hair is very dark and I used to get my face waxed and when I couldn't afford it any longer I had to shave trust me shaving is way worse then waxing and it does come on more stiff then the peach fuzz does.
@@teresafurr5601 look up Dr Berg hrre on youtube, lots of very helpful, practical health info, you might find golden nuggets there about hormonal imbalances. Dig and really search through their (hundreds) of health info bits.
Beth, just saw your video on shaving your face, and I thought you explained everything so well. You just seem so helpful, genuine, adorable, and beautiful!... I loved how you ended your video with positive thoughts. Thank you so much!
And it’s chemical free. I used to shave my sister’s face, when I was her caregiver. Shaving was not as painful as when using a tweezers. Made her look great and feel great too! I shave parts of my face too. It’s hard to tweeze everything. I miss some of the pesky hairs, then see them later on when I m out running around. Thanks for the video.🙂
Omg I thought I was the only one! I have this huge fear though. I don't have any kids and other family really and I always worry about being in the nursing home or hospital and the places where I shaved my face grow like a man beard. Seriously. Like..... It's my biggest fear as far as being alone. Who will shave my face?? I know that sounds weird but I carry a razor in my purse everywhere I go just in case something happens and I end up in the hospital. No lie. Anyway... Thanks for the video! It helps to know I'm not the only one who does this.
I obsess exactly the same way about so much concerning my vanity. Looks are everything regardless of old sayings. How you look determines how others treat you & that's the truth. Anyway girl find you a Best friend who will shave you. It's important to have that one person who you know will not let you look like Wilford Brimley! The oatmeal guy.
Hi fellow Texan please don’t worry about what happens with your appearance when you’re too old to care for yourself. True Beauty is on the inside ♥️ and God loves you
Beth, thank you for being so real with us regarding your hair removal regimen! Being 50+ myself, I notice the shift in hair production from hardly shaving my legs now, to having to tweeze daily on my face; and, not knowing WHAT to do about those infernal nose hairs! Now, I do! Bless you!!!
I have quite a few facial/chin hairs (dark) so I shave every other day, and about once a month or so, I pluck the main dark ones that are annoying me. I admitted to my husband a couple months ago that I have quite a bit of dark face hairs and he was in shock. I thought he already knew and was just being nice by not saying anything about it. So mostly, people don't even notice if you're not perfect. I've gone up to 4 days without taking care of the face hairs, so... I'm sure there are some people who are more observant than my husband, but that has really eased my nerves about it. Plus, it's just normal, so people need to get over it! LOL :)
Thank you for this video been shaving since my 30's also only to hear negative thoughts from several like now your gonna grow a beard like man... etc... Thanks for confirming as my thoughts were on right 😂
Beth, you are an absolute champion! This was such a thorough video and beautifully done ❤️ I have been shaving for many years too and wouldn’t be without it. The things we do 😂 sending you a big hug 🤗
This is a great part of a woman's beauty routine that should have no stigma attached to it! It's enhhanced exfoliation that makes the skin positively glow, especially after applying tanner or moisturizer. I'm 71 and believe me, it makes a huge difference!
Beautiful Miss! I have utilized exfoliation gloves in the shower all over my body since I was 18 years old. I am 59 now. I do not have wrinkles! Exfoliate at least once a week or every time you shower! You are gorgeous. You look to be in your late 20s or very early 30s. Dye your hair platinum or honey blonde; add volume extensions (me too, but black like Elizabeth Taylor SMILE) and that's it for you to look the absolute best. BEAUTIFUL GIRL! Excellent advice you have given to all. Old dead skin is the wrinkle culprit! I agree! Thank you. Sarah Israel
Thank you so glad I happened on your video today. I really enjoyed it. Especially at the end. Louise Hay is one of my favorite people on the planet. (I feel she’s still here with us😉) It’s nice to be reminded of her wise words. 💕
I started shaving my arms, hands, and face when I was 13 (other teens mentioned it, decided to try it, loved it, never stopped.) and I'm 34 now. I started wearing powder and sometimes Foundation when I was around 14-15 and stopped when I was in my mid 20's. The combination of enough sleep, avoiding too much sun, shaving my face, drinking enough water, and improving my eating really help my skin a lot. Another bonus is that it makes it itche less. (I have sensitive skin, hair makes me itch more).
When I started using an exfoliating puff, my arms, legs, hands have no hair. I didn't even notice it till I was getting blood taken from my arm at the clinic, I saw that I had no hair on my arms and wondered where it went LOL! I have to check my knee caps once in a while because I tend to skip over that spot sometimes and maybe shave a couple of hairs. Haven't had to shave my legs for 20 yrs.
I've been shaving every day for the past 20 plus years. I'm so glad it has become normal to do it, but when I first started, I never told a soul! lol I remember that I got the idea for it from a daytime talk show that the soap opera star Linda Dano was on. She said she shaves her whole face on a regular basis and it gave her wonderful skin. That struck me as a fantastic idea because I really hated my peach fuzz! I have been doing it once a week ever since. I also shave the backs of my hands and my toes.
"I apparently have no pride"... oh my goodness, I love you and your authenticity, candor, humor and honesty! Love your channel! Thank you! Just turned 55 yesterday and I am watching and learning!!!
I shaved my face for years but decided to quit during the pandemic when i could wear a mask all the time and let it grow back. My skin looked much better shaved than it does now because it exfoliates. I quit shaving because you have to do it almost every day to keep it smooth and I’m just too busy for that. If you skip it or get lazy, those little hairs look like crap when they are short. The sun reflects off them and it’s obvious that you shaved but didn’t keep it up. I hated being a slave to it. I’m a fair skinned Scandinavian and blonde stubble looks worse than not shaving at all. I do use a blade on my upper lip and lower jawline but that’s it, the cheek hair stays. I’m used to it now and not a prisoner of shaving anymore. 68 and don’t care!
@@pipermaisiemae1999 It is definitely noticeable if you miss a day. Just don’t even start because it becomes another time consuming ritual. I, personally, got tired of the extra time it takes. Trying to simplify my life, not make it more complicated. Plus facial hair is just a normal part of being female so who cares. And not one person noticed when I shaved my face and not one person noticed when I didn’t. We might not like the look of our facial hair but truly no one else cares.
I pluck out the coarse ones. They are dark, even though my head hair is light (Scandinavian mother). I have to shave AND pluck because I apparently have some black hair DNA from my brunette Welsh grandmother! If I'd been a guy I would've had blond hair and a dark beard. You've seen those guys! It isn't ugly on them, just interesting... but I don't prefer it on me! I am 62. And yes, once you start shaving, you have to keep it up.
Not only do you remove the peach fuzz, but also dead skin cells. I love how my skin feels after shaving. Also think skin care products absorb better. Be careful how far into the nostril you go and how close the nasal hair is trimmed. The hair in the nose helps protect our nose and nasal passages from foreign bodies like dust and insects. We do need those hairs, but trimming at the opening shouldn’t be a problem, but don’t go far.

Perfect timing I was wondering how often to do this and I'm glad everyday because every morning it seems the hair fairy came over night and got my face again. This was very helpful to know how to shave properly. Thank You Beth so Much! Sending Love and many blessings to you!

I started taking care of my skin at the age of 15, I'm now 49 and have zero wrinkles. It's never too early or too late. This shaving method has helped my skins tone, texture and my makeup look amazing!! ⭐NEW SUBSCRIBER HERE⭐
I am so glad I saw you again today….several years ago you were on TV talking bout shaving your face & I thought you were so gorgeous….I am 72 yrs old & started shaving my face when I 1st saw you on TV….no one can believe my age….thank you so much. 👍🏻🙏🥰
Wow Glenna! Thanks for sharing that and I’m so glad it worked for you! I am also glad to hear that even in our 70s we care about being beautiful! You give me great hope!!
@@deniset8380 I have lots of stiff hairs on my chin, peach fuzz everywhere else and had spent a lot of money having wax and other hair removal treatments that didn’t do much. He explained that shaving does NOT increase hair growth so why not? I mostly shave in the shower and love the difference it makes.
I never shaved my bodybecuae I hardly had any hair except under arm not much and as I shaved more I got more.also when they shaved my feet for bunionectomy few days later I started to get hair on top.of.my toes.
Thank you and God bless you for your continuous support and prayer for me throughout my movie career. Once again thank you🌹 you can reach me on my private gmail👇
Beth, I too have shaved since my 20's. I'm 61 right now. what happened was similar to you. I had the peach fuzz situation and went to a laser clinic and they actually made the hair situation worse. So I just started using the shaver and it takes me no more than 5 mins in the shower. I use soap too. And like you, I don't have wrinkles around there. I do it exactly the same way you do, but spend a little longer in the corners of my mouth where I get a few stiff hairs. After, I use vitamin E cream around the area.
I had a prescription for vanica I asked my dermatologist for it was 200 bucks I heard it may cause rash so I didn’t get it anyway Beth you look beautiful absolutely lovely God bless you and your family !!!🌷🙏🏽🌷
I appreciate that you not only gave tips and advice like a lotta youtubers do, but you actually SHOWED us exactly what you were talking about. It's good to actually SEE a demonstration. Thank you for caring enough about us women 50+ to be vulnerable enough to do that. Even show us a make-up free demonstration. You're a very beautiful woman, even with no makeup, and an inspiration to us older women who still want to look good. Thanks!
Thank you and God bless you for your continuous support and prayer for me throughout my movie career. Once again thank you🌹 you can reach me on my private gmail👇.
Totally agree with @missmayflower. . . . you are even more beautiful without makeup. I started this regime today. Let's see if it helps this almost 66-year-old face. Thanks for sharing and for your transparency!!! And thanks to your hubby for being such a good sport.
I've been doing this for years too. The only thing I do different is shave with the direction of the hair growth. Down toward the lip under nose and down under bottom lip to do the chin area. It's better than waxing cuz wax can cause the skin to stretch.
I'm 42 & have been shaving my face for about five or six years. I am so happy to see so many other women do it & I'm not alone. It really does help make your face smooth & helps with the dry skin too. I love the way my face feels after shaving.
I'm going to be 47 in December and I've heard of shaving your face for years, but I was always afraid of it growing back thicker and darker. I might try it, thanks for being so open about your beauty routines. I have made my own beauty face masks, body scrubs, etc for years now. I love seeing new beauty routines. Stay blessed💜
I saw this first on a Japanese tv show and started doing it and got tons of compliments on how satiny my facial skin looks. She is absolutely correct about how the makeup looks airbrushed on your skin. It is breathtaking and renewing.
Oh my goodness!😊 I absolutely loved this video. Especially when you trimmed your nose. 😆 I'm definitely subscribing. Thank you! You are so fun and down to earth.
Well you are lovely and I'm glad this has worked for you and apparently many others. I just remember a girl that I used to know who shaved her face. She was fair skinned and dark haired. She would have to wear heavy makeup to cover her "five o'clock shadow", a darker beard /mustache shadow that always showed up. I felt really bad for her. That was nearly 30 years ago, but I have never forgotten it. That is why I would never personally have the courage to do it.
You are so good to share this with us and to provide such a candid and thorough demonstration. I tried the little shaver (tinkle?) a year or two ago, but didn't like it, as it irritated my skin. Since then, have just used small scissors, not nearly as effective as a razor; will try it. Your beautiful skin is a great encouragement!
I have been doing this for years too and yes I get the few black hairs under the chin as well as the peach face hairs. Makes a big difference. I had a very early menopause, due to disease, had a total hysterectomy. So I then went into surgical menopause symptoms, one of which was hair growth in those same areas, not excessive. Thank You for a great video.🇦🇺
Wow! I just came across your channel today and immediately subscribed after watching this video.😁 I will have to say I was always feeling ashamed for years when my hubby or kids came in bathroom and I was shaving quickly (I'm talking taking a very quick dry razor over chin, lip and sides of lip and even neck. I honestly didn't know all the benefits so now I will gladly shave face in front of husband in shower and feel great about doing it! 😀 Thank you for such helpful advice. Looking forward to more of your videos and I will also be checking out your library of D.I.Y's etc. I'm 45 & I always get so many people thinking I'm in my 20's. I laugh and say no I have a 22 year old, 17 & 6 year old along with being a Grandmama to a 2 year old and a 2 1/2 week old newborn. I tell them "I'm blessed 😇 & that I guess Oil of Olay won't be making $ off of me"! Lol 😂🤣😂
You are fabulous!! So kind to show us!! You are beautiful. I am 66 and I have been a secret shaver. I agree with exfoliation belong to prevent wrinkles. A Swedish lady on the Phil Donahue Show told the benefits and 40 yrs later I am so thankful. You are wonderful to share. I have subscribed. 💕💕
💗😊💕Wow, you are so beautiful. I’m kinda biased to not wearing make-up or very little of it, so your face in the shower to me was even more beautiful than your full make-up at the beginning of the video. Thank you so much for sharing, I do have peach fuzz here and there and I’ve always wanted to shave it off, but was never brave enough until you just showed me, now💕😊💗
I'm 67, I've had "Peach Fuzz" since the day I was born, on my face and back, I'm fortunate in that it's so light you can't see it, in recent years I've had about 5 hairs on my face (still blonde) that are coarse. It's easier for me to shave them than pluck them due to my eyesight.
You're skin is amazing!! I love shaving and seeing how glowing the skin becomes.I also shave backs of m y hands and forearms.This helps with pigmentation and sun spots and makes the skin so smooth.Thanks for this info and putting yourself out there!
You are so welcome and thank you so much for your very lovely comments! I also shave my hands and forearms but I had no idea it had an effect on pigmentation. I don’t seem to have too much there though so maybe it does work. Thanks for letting me know that. That’s very interesting.
I just want to say thank you for this video. I am 58 and the fuzz on my face thought light in colour was causing me issues with makeup and honestly made me feel old. Last night I braved the blade and I am so happy with the results, my makeup is in place and I feel much better. I will still have to pluck those few dark hairs and I will purchase the correct equipment. Thank you and all those ladies who have commented for making me brave to shave xxxx
Well…it’s most definitely different for different women. I did get darker thicker hairs esp in mustache region… Natural blonds usually have fine hairs as well as being lighter. (I’m a brunette tho my daughter is natural blond.)
You are absolutely correct! I am grateful to be a natural blonde. My mother is a natural brunette too! My body hair is light and fine/soft. My darker haired girlfriends shaved daily up to their thighs and I shaved every two weeks to my knees only. Just my calves. I’ve gone silver during the pandemic and that was a breeze. Everyone including complete strangers and friends think I’m coloring it, until I prove I’m not by showing the array of colors underneath - it’s fascinating. This shaving thing has been a god-send as I won’t wax ever again. I just wanted the peri-meno addition of “more hair” eliminated and the answer seemed to be waxing. Which hurts! So I am doing this shaving thing and so far so good! And, as you pointed out, as blondes it’s just light peach fuzzy. My best friend is Indian, and she even waxes her arms!!! She can’t do the shave thing as she will get stubble like a man and that won’t fly. But she is gorgeous and has much to be thankful for! :)
My hair is dark too almost black and I had some dark hair in the mustache area when I got in my late 20s early 30s I didn't dare shave but I did wax and thru the years my hair on my lip got less and less now I'm in my 50s I have a few stiff hairs but my thin black hairs are pretty much gone I may wax now about one every 3 months when I was young it was 2 time a month. So with dark hair I say wax don't shave may daughter shaved and she is hating it now if shaving turns bad for you your stuck shaving and taking the chance of 5 o'clock shadow. So blonde its probably OK to shave but not dark hair women. Waxing was the best for me like I said I have very little hair now on my lip and it was pretty bad at one time. I now just pluck the few stiff ones I get about 5 or 6 of them in the corners of my lip. I wax the peach fuzz on the side of my face that doesn't need to be done much maybe 3 times a year it grows back very slowly and its getting thinner not near as much as I once had.... only thing about waking is it don't feel so well but you get use to it...
Beth you are amazing! You are lovely and put together so well…your makeup and skin is impeccable…but you are a true beauty with no makeup! You are truly beautiful with makeup and without!! Thankyou for this interesting video!!
Thank you and God bless you for your continuous support and prayer for me throughout my movie career. Once again thank you🌹 you can reach me on my private gmail👇
You are beautiful! My only worry is because I’ve worked in the health care profession…I’m worried about ending up in a nursing home with a beard 😬 I can’t imagine anyone shaving my face with all of the duties our nursing staff are trying to take care of…at 61 I’m willing to give this a shot 😉
I’m 61 and have been shaving my face and suggesting to other women to shave periodically since I was a makeup artist in my 20’s. Smooth skin is the perfect base for foundation and other makeup. Great advice!
I just love you Beth....so help me you are the most amazing, secure woman I have ever known, ( well, known on you tube) I have learned more from you in 6 months than I've learned anywhere my entire life. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you do for us. Seriously, you are incredible. I hope you never change.
I am so happy I discovered your channel! You always make me feel better about myself and somedays are harder than others. I always enjoy your uplifting and positive spirit in everything you do. Thank you.
Found this video today of all days. It's my 50th birthday. I have noticed peach fuzz for several years now and thought there was nothing I could do. You have taught me a lot today. I can't wait to learn more. Thank you and best wishes.
Read the comments. I have decided not to go this route. Many others do now experience the manly 5 o'clock shadow and their hair is growing back course and dark. I was hopeful when I saw the video but after reading comments... nope. I will not take the chance of becoming the bearded lady.
What generous information! Thank you 💖 it’s better to be loving than being prideful anyway... you have high self-esteem/self-love, that’s how you can share with so much openness and generosity! You’re Beautiful!
I find it does make the hairs coarser by shaving. It was also taught to us in cosmetology school not to shave for that reason. Plucking (waxing) is a better option unless you can't take the pain.
You are 100% right I worked in beauty selling Estee Lauder for over 10 years and one of the girls there saved her face and talked to me into it and oh my God I was like a total man 🤮! It made it way worse you're supposed to pluck the hairs off your face exactly you're exactly right hun 💜
I have hormonal issues as I have PCOS and endometriosis. My hair grows back dark and thick, although many are very coarse gray or white hairs now. I think it probably depends on your hormones. Just my opinion. I’d love to feel a smooth face, however a lot of peach fuzz is better for me than a ton of thicker coarse hairs that are around my chin and mustache area. Everyone is different.
I started with the stick thingy shavers, have since grown and learned that a good old fashioned double edge razor is perfect! Love the fresh & smooth face. I’m almost 50, my face is as smooth as velvet! Take the leap, you’ll love it!!
I often wondered why not use the razor instead of those stick things? Someone said the taxer doesn’t not get the little hairs as good. I don’t see how it can not get them.

Thank you, Beth! This is such a touchy subject for some women (like me ) and you make it seem like such a simple thing to do every day. Here's hoping my marionette lines will fade in time. Thank you again.
If you're hoping to get rid of the marionette lines on your face, I will tell you right now that shaving will make NO difference at all in that respect. I too have marionette lines and shave. Nasolabial folds (marionette lines) are due to skin laxity and volume loss, in addition to the effects of gravity. Your skin will be smoother, softer, and exfoliated well, but that is the extent of the cosmetic benefits you will ever get.
@@Sealust50 no but I started using collagen powder or supplements and in about a month my whole face changed. I was hating the severe wrinkling around mouth and chin. I am 62.
God bless Allen, he's such a supportive hubby! Your skin is outstanding, no doubt this exfoliation via razor has played a role. I first remember hearing about it when I read an article about Christie Brinkley's beauty tips, so clearly you're in good company! Have a fun week, Beth! We're finally getting some cooler weather here in North Texas🌱
@@FiftyPlusBeauty Cooler weather means cooler clothes and less sunscreen bc less "realestate" is exposed! 😊Glad you're getting yours. Been a long hot summer here in Texas, we got our August in September!

I think you’re even prettier in the shower without makeup. Thanks for sharing these things that women need to talk about with someone.
I went back and looked. You are right, she looks great without make-up. She also looks great with make up. I wouldn't say better one way or another, just good in different ways.
I agree!!
I have dry skin. Considering buying a dermaplane instrument to smooth out my skin. Seems it helps exfoliate dark spots
Yes ! Very sexy , wet in the shower with no make up !
She looks younger without makeup
I am SO with you there girl! No leg hair to shave at 56, but I'm whacking off the moustache and the nose hair with a weed whacker! Also, nobody told me I was going to get grey hairs in my freaking eyebrows, I feel like all my hair priorities have changed!!!!!
What do u use for ur pores because it looks really good
I’m sooo subscribing I am 35 but you are so wonderful and talk about things that other women are so afraid to talk about kudos for your courage I’m loving it.
Thanks so much Erika!! I appreciate that!!
Thank you so much for actually demonstrating how to shave my face. You are so honest and matter of fact about these processes.
You are so welcome! It seems pretty normal to me.
I've been shaving my face since I was 27 yrs old (I'm now 69 yrs old). I had "fur" on my face (heavier than peach fuzz), but contrary to your experience, I have grown a beard so I use a twin blade disposable razor to take care of that, but by the next day there's rough stubble again. I'm so glad to know that there's lots of other women out there with this same problem. Thanks for sharing.
Yep..its not true!! You should NOT tell everyone doesn't grow back thicker or stubble..I was told .I started shaving and was very disappointed when did exactly that !!! I was so selfish conscious..worried men would notice. Not even dating ,im afraid that some guy would find out and I'd be horrified. ..mine (does ) grows back over night..so fast. I sometime already have by evening same day ..I hate it !!..I hate thinking have to do forever. I have less stubble by just using tweezers ..it stinks. Takes longer plucking but goes deeper pulling from root more .so you have few days to til again..it nice you have enough income. If can afford to keep buying new razors etc..they are not cheap .and im in very limited budget ..not everyone is as fortunate.so no one size dont fit all . This is why went back to tweezing .i have tons of razors, shave gel . At 60 .really don't grow on my legs .I'd rather did..I hate dealing with on face 😒🙄

@@kimberlychilstrom6888 hi, try laser hair removal. It is pricey but worth it. It has helped me greatly.
Mine got so bad, thick and dark, maybe from plucking since age 30, now 66, and for a long time I’ve resorted to using a man’s electric Norelco shaver which does it well. I have curly hair, so plucking and blade shaving. created ingrown hairs which is it’s own big problem. No ingrowns using the electric.
Beth, your self-deprecating humor just adds to your physical beauty...thank you for sharing these very personal tips!
I agree - perfect comment. Beth is keeping things real. Also exfoliating does not happen so easily after fifty. Fine details of grooming can make a big difference!

@Corunna Stevens Goris good evening how are you doing?
" I apparently have no pride" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Great vid... Wish I had seen this 35 years ago when my husband saw my face backlit and said that I needed to shave. All that did was hurt my feelings and give him a nice peaceful night with me not speaking to him.
lol. You really showed him.....
I’m so glad you’re so honest about how things happen (peach fuzz, stray black wirey hairs that appear a few times a year, & the nose hairs that could be beaded & celebrated if you so desire)! I never knew I would develop all of THIS, as I aged. I use a flashlight to look up my nose to make sure I’ve gotten all of the millions of gray & black hair that have appeared. Have you ever seen an old man with long gray nose hairs that reflect light? Yes, I want to make sure you can’t see mine from space. I applaud you for being real. From the time we hit puberty to the time we leave this earth our face is our fortune. I’m pushing 70 & It’s taking longer to look good, but I can look good for my age. Thanks for staying beautiful & positive! BTW, I’m taking Tango lessons! 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
I have been shaving since my teens, was always afraid someone would find out. I'm in my sixties and still have to shave but thanks for making me feel better about it.
This video and ones like it are really nice. People like me that grew up without a mom sometimes feel like they didn't learn important lessons along the way that were key. Thank you
I’m 30 something and sometimes I think my life is over and I’m so old to do certain things, watching your video really gave me some perspective on getting old gracefully ❤❤❤
So true! I gave up my TV career in my 30s because I thought I looked too old. Do you have plenty of great life ahead.💝
I'm turning 50 and just started shaving my face and I was afraid but now seeing this makes it feel so much comfortable thank you for sharing
Hey friend, this lady is absolutely right. I am 71 and have been shaving since i was early 30's. I have NO wrinkles on my face and I wear very little makeup. I'm always "tapping water" on my face and letting my skin absorb it. Always wear day cream. You will notice the difference. The peach fuzz keeps growing but not as much and no beard will grow.
Well darnit ….I have been afraid to shave as well..just turned 50..have had the fuzz for at least a decade…gonna shave it soon lol
I’ve shaved my face for a couple of years now and wish I’d started earlier. Thanks Beth! You have gorgeous skin! 🥰🥰🥰

@@lynnerowe4021 what's that?
Thank you for your video. HOWEVER, this is YOUR experience. Others have experienced the exact opposite and now regret ever starting to shave. It is a gamble and one I have decided not to take based on others experience. Yes I would love smoother looking makeup - but someday when I'm older that won't be as important but the black beard I could possibly have would be just horrible.
Each skin type is different. A darker hair would show stubble no matter how fine. We darker skin tones, can't get away with this as easily. I'd never touch a razor to my face, I'd end up with man-like facial hair. I do hair removal creams myself for upkeep, years after laser hair removal treatment.
And you are lovely btw, thanks for showing it like it is and what works -for you- in real life. That honesty is inspiring. You've a new subscriber
I have a hormone problem and my hair has never been peach fuzz since I was in my 20's. My hair is very dark and I used to get my face waxed and when I couldn't afford it any longer I had to shave trust me shaving is way worse then waxing and it does come on more stiff then the peach fuzz does.

Beth, just saw your video on shaving your face, and I thought you explained everything so well.
You just seem so helpful, genuine, adorable, and beautiful!...
I loved how you ended your video with positive thoughts.
Thank you so much!
Yes I got a nose 👃 shaver too I’m 68 and where did all this hair come from 💖🤣😂Thank you for sharing it’s nice to know I’m not alone🤣
And it’s chemical free. I used to shave my sister’s face, when I was her caregiver. Shaving was not as painful as when using a tweezers. Made her look great and feel great too! I shave parts of my face too. It’s hard to tweeze everything. I miss some of the pesky hairs, then see them later on when I m out running around. Thanks for the video.🙂
Omg I thought I was the only one! I have this huge fear though. I don't have any kids and other family really and I always worry about being in the nursing home or hospital and the places where I shaved my face grow like a man beard. Seriously. Like..... It's my biggest fear as far as being alone. Who will shave my face?? I know that sounds weird but I carry a razor in my purse everywhere I go just in case something happens and I end up in the hospital. No lie. Anyway... Thanks for the video! It helps to know I'm not the only one who does this.
I have that fear as well. I always tell my husband if I die before him to please make sure someone shaves my mustache & trims my nose hairs lol.
I obsess exactly the same way about so much concerning my vanity. Looks are everything regardless of old sayings. How you look determines how others treat you & that's the truth. Anyway girl find you a Best friend who will shave you. It's important to have that one person who you know will not let you look like Wilford Brimley! The oatmeal guy.

Beth, thank you for being so real with us regarding your hair removal regimen! Being 50+ myself, I notice the shift in hair production from hardly shaving my legs now, to having to tweeze daily on my face; and, not knowing WHAT to do about those infernal nose hairs! Now, I do! Bless you!!!
Bless you too! I just used that nose trimmer yesterday! Love it!!
I have quite a few facial/chin hairs (dark) so I shave every other day, and about once a month or so, I pluck the main dark ones that are annoying me. I admitted to my husband a couple months ago that I have quite a bit of dark face hairs and he was in shock. I thought he already knew and was just being nice by not saying anything about it. So mostly, people don't even notice if you're not perfect. I've gone up to 4 days without taking care of the face hairs, so... I'm sure there are some people who are more observant than my husband, but that has really eased my nerves about it. Plus, it's just normal, so people need to get over it! LOL :)
I really appreciate the awesome way you list each and every product you use in your video!!! 👍👏🏻Thank you!!!

This is a great part of a woman's beauty routine that should have no stigma attached to it! It's enhhanced exfoliation that makes the skin positively glow, especially after applying tanner or moisturizer. I'm 71 and believe me, it makes a huge difference!
Im so glad, you did this video!!! I was thinking of buying the sonic smooth! This was such a great video, THANK YOU!!! 💕
Glad it was helpful!
Beautiful Miss! I have utilized exfoliation gloves in the shower all over my body since I was 18 years old. I am 59 now. I do not have wrinkles! Exfoliate at least once a week or every time you shower! You are gorgeous. You look to be in your late 20s or very early 30s. Dye your hair platinum or honey blonde; add volume extensions (me too, but black like Elizabeth Taylor SMILE) and that's it for you to look the absolute best. BEAUTIFUL GIRL! Excellent advice you have given to all. Old dead skin is the wrinkle culprit! I agree! Thank you. Sarah Israel
Thanks so much for all the great beauty tips! I really appreciate that. You were so right on the exfoliating gloves too!
Thank you so glad I happened on your video today. I really enjoyed it. Especially at the end. Louise Hay is one of my favorite people on the planet. (I feel she’s still here with us😉) It’s nice to be reminded of her wise words. 💕
I started shaving my arms, hands, and face when I was 13 (other teens mentioned it, decided to try it, loved it, never stopped.) and I'm 34 now. I started wearing powder and sometimes Foundation when I was around 14-15 and stopped when I was in my mid 20's. The combination of enough sleep, avoiding too much sun, shaving my face, drinking enough water, and improving my eating really help my skin a lot. Another bonus is that it makes it itche less. (I have sensitive skin, hair makes me itch more).
When I started using an exfoliating puff, my arms, legs, hands have no hair. I didn't even notice it till I was getting blood taken from my arm at the clinic, I saw that I had no hair on my arms and wondered where it went LOL! I have to check my knee caps once in a while because I tend to skip over that spot sometimes and maybe shave a couple of hairs. Haven't had to shave my legs for 20 yrs.
You forgot exercise. Anything that gets the blood pumping is advantageous.
@@bikermom7391 sorry, I’m from Sweden, can u explain what is exfoliating puff??
I've been shaving every day for the past 20 plus years. I'm so glad it has become normal to do it, but when I first started, I never told a soul! lol I remember that I got the idea for it from a daytime talk show that the soap opera star Linda Dano was on. She said she shaves her whole face on a regular basis and it gave her wonderful skin. That struck me as a fantastic idea because I really hated my peach fuzz! I have been doing it once a week ever since. I also shave the backs of my hands and my toes.

“I apparently have no pride” 🤣😂😅 TOO FUNNY! Beth, thank you! Seriously…. Thank you for sharing your tips and tricks. ☺️ Much appreciated!
The hair on my face grew in thicker when i shaved it, so now i wax my face and it doesnt grow back thicker and takes longer to grow back in
Oh my God!!!!!! I was watching this late at night and I think I woke the dead laughing my a$$ off!!!!!
I’ve been shaving mine since I was told to by my Dermatologist boss at the time. I was 24. I’m now 56.
I shaved my face for years but decided to quit during the pandemic when i could wear a mask all the time and let it grow back. My skin looked much better shaved than it does now because it exfoliates. I quit shaving because you have to do it almost every day to keep it smooth and I’m just too busy for that. If you skip it or get lazy, those little hairs look like crap when they are short. The sun reflects off them and it’s obvious that you shaved but didn’t keep it up. I hated being a slave to it. I’m a fair skinned Scandinavian and blonde stubble looks worse than not shaving at all. I do use a blade on my upper lip and lower jawline but that’s it, the cheek hair stays. I’m used to it now and not a prisoner of shaving anymore. 68 and don’t care!
Soooo true
Thanks for sharing all the great tips! I really appreciate that.
I have dark hair and know it would make it more noticeable if I started shaving. The next thing you know I would have a 5 o'clock shadow. 😳
@@pipermaisiemae1999 It is definitely noticeable if you miss a day. Just don’t even start because it becomes another time consuming ritual. I, personally, got tired of the extra time it takes. Trying to simplify my life, not make it more complicated. Plus facial hair is just a normal part of being female so who cares. And not one person noticed when I shaved my face and not one person noticed when I didn’t. We might not like the look of our facial hair but truly no one else cares.
I pluck out the coarse ones. They are dark, even though my head hair is light (Scandinavian mother). I have to shave AND pluck because I apparently have some black hair DNA from my brunette Welsh grandmother! If I'd been a guy I would've had blond hair and a dark beard. You've seen those guys! It isn't ugly on them, just interesting... but I don't prefer it on me! I am 62. And yes, once you start shaving, you have to keep it up.
I love how open you are! You look fantastic!
This is a real woman sharing good things. I love watching her videos, she is sincere.
Not only do you remove the peach fuzz, but also dead skin cells. I love how my skin feels after shaving. Also think skin care products absorb better. Be careful how far into the nostril you go and how close the nasal hair is trimmed. The hair in the nose helps protect our nose and nasal passages from foreign bodies like dust and insects. We do need those hairs, but trimming at the opening shouldn’t be a problem, but don’t go far.

My dermatologist recommended shaving and I love it! He said increased hairs is a fallacy! It’s wonderful.
why did the dermatologist recommend?
@@deniset8380 I have lots of stiff hairs on my chin, peach fuzz everywhere else and had spent a lot of money having wax and other hair removal treatments that didn’t do much. He explained that shaving does NOT increase hair growth so why not? I mostly shave in the shower and love the difference it makes.
I never shaved my bodybecuae I hardly had any hair except under arm not much and as I shaved more I got more.also when they shaved my feet for bunionectomy few days later I started to get hair on top.of.my toes.
@Marissa Elle it does come back thicker just like men the more they shave the more hair they get..the bigger the area the more hair in more area.

Beth, I too have shaved since my 20's. I'm 61 right now. what happened was similar to you. I had the peach fuzz situation and went to a laser clinic and they actually made the hair situation worse. So I just started using the shaver and it takes me no more than 5 mins in the shower. I use soap too. And like you, I don't have wrinkles around there. I do it exactly the same way you do, but spend a little longer in the corners of my mouth where I get a few stiff hairs. After, I use vitamin E cream around the area.
I had a prescription for vanica I asked my dermatologist for it was 200 bucks I heard it may cause rash so I didn’t get it anyway Beth you look beautiful absolutely lovely God bless you and your family !!!🌷🙏🏽🌷
I've got 10 years on you and I do that! Thank you for telling everyone about it. It makes a difference.
I put up an IKEA swing mirror on my bath tub wall, makes it organized. Real exfoliation quickly. THANKS FOR THE TRAINING

You have demystified the care of our older faces...THANK YOU
I've been doing this for years too. The only thing I do different is shave with the direction of the hair growth. Down toward the lip under nose and down under bottom lip to do the chin area. It's better than waxing cuz wax can cause the skin to stretch.
I'm 42 & have been shaving my face for about five or six years. I am so happy to see so many other women do it & I'm not alone. It really does help make your face smooth & helps with the dry skin too. I love the way my face feels after shaving.
Hi Wendy! Are you dark-haired or fair? I'm 42, brunette and I worry about dark regrowth. Right now the hair is fair but thick.
I'm going to be 47 in December and I've heard of shaving your face for years, but I was always afraid of it growing back thicker and darker. I might try it, thanks for being so open about your beauty routines. I have made my own beauty face masks, body scrubs, etc for years now. I love seeing new beauty routines. Stay blessed💜
Nice!!
I saw this first on a Japanese tv show and started doing it and got tons of compliments on how satiny my facial skin looks. She is absolutely correct about how the makeup looks airbrushed on your skin. It is breathtaking and renewing.

Oh my goodness!😊 I absolutely loved this video. Especially when you trimmed your nose. 😆 I'm definitely subscribing. Thank you! You are so fun and down to earth.
Well you are lovely and I'm glad this has worked for you and apparently many others. I just remember a girl that I used to know who shaved her face. She was fair skinned and dark haired. She would have to wear heavy makeup to cover her "five o'clock shadow", a darker beard /mustache shadow that always showed up. I felt really bad for her. That was nearly 30 years ago, but I have never forgotten it. That is why I would never personally have the courage to do it.
You are so good to share this with us and to provide such a candid and thorough demonstration. I tried the little shaver (tinkle?) a year or two ago, but didn't like it, as it irritated my skin. Since then, have just used small scissors, not nearly as effective as a razor; will try it. Your beautiful skin is a great encouragement!

I have been doing this for years too and yes I get the few black hairs under the chin as well as the peach face hairs. Makes a big difference. I had a very early menopause, due to disease, had a total hysterectomy. So I then went into surgical menopause symptoms, one of which was hair growth in those same areas, not excessive.

Wow! I just came across your channel today and immediately subscribed after watching this video.😁 I will have to say I was always feeling ashamed for years when my hubby or kids came in bathroom and I was shaving quickly (I'm talking taking a very quick dry razor over chin, lip and sides of lip and even neck.

Looking forward to more of your videos and I will also be checking out your library of D.I.Y's etc. I'm 45 & I always get so many people thinking I'm in my 20's.

💗😊💕Wow, you are so beautiful. I’m kinda biased to not wearing make-up or very little of it, so your face in the shower to me was even more beautiful than your full make-up at the beginning of the video. Thank you so much for sharing, I do have peach fuzz here and there and I’ve always wanted to shave it off, but was never brave enough until you just showed me, now💕😊💗
I'm 67, I've had "Peach Fuzz" since the day I was born, on my face and back, I'm fortunate in that it's so light you can't see it, in recent years I've had about 5 hairs on my face (still blonde) that are coarse. It's easier for me to shave them than pluck them due to my eyesight.
You're skin is amazing!! I love shaving and seeing how glowing the skin becomes.I also shave backs of m y hands and forearms.This helps with pigmentation and sun spots and makes the skin so smooth.Thanks for this info and putting yourself out there!
You are so welcome and thank you so much for your very lovely comments! I also shave my hands and forearms but I had no idea it had an effect on pigmentation. I don’t seem to have too much there though so maybe it does work. Thanks for letting me know that. That’s very interesting.
yours would be too with the work she had done.
I am 77. Have been doing this since I was 40. My mother passed it on to me. Keep doing it ! 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
I just want to say thank you for this video. I am 58 and the fuzz on my face thought light in colour was causing me issues with makeup and honestly made me feel old. Last night I braved the blade and I am so happy with the results, my makeup is in place and I feel much better. I will still have to pluck those few dark hairs and I will purchase the correct equipment. Thank you and all those ladies who have commented for making me brave to shave xxxx
Well…it’s most definitely different for different women. I did get darker thicker hairs esp in mustache region…
Natural blonds usually have fine hairs as well as being lighter.
(I’m a brunette tho my daughter is natural blond.)
You are absolutely correct! I am grateful to be a natural blonde. My mother is a natural brunette too! My body hair is light and fine/soft. My darker haired girlfriends shaved daily up to their thighs and I shaved every two weeks to my knees only. Just my calves. I’ve gone silver during the pandemic and that was a breeze. Everyone including complete strangers and friends think I’m coloring it, until I prove I’m not by showing the array of colors underneath - it’s fascinating. This shaving thing has been a god-send as I won’t wax ever again. I just wanted the peri-meno addition of “more hair” eliminated and the answer seemed to be waxing. Which hurts! So I am doing this shaving thing and so far so good! And, as you pointed out, as blondes it’s just light peach fuzzy. My best friend is Indian, and she even waxes her arms!!! She can’t do the shave thing as she will get stubble like a man and that won’t fly. But she is gorgeous and has much to be thankful for! :)
Exactly, some of my hairs are as thick as fishing line and I’m not joking!!
My hair is dark too almost black and I had some dark hair in the mustache area when I got in my late 20s early 30s I didn't dare shave but I did wax and thru the years my hair on my lip got less and less now I'm in my 50s I have a few stiff hairs but my thin black hairs are pretty much gone I may wax now about one every 3 months when I was young it was 2 time a month. So with dark hair I say wax don't shave may daughter shaved and she is hating it now if shaving turns bad for you your stuck shaving and taking the chance of 5 o'clock shadow. So blonde its probably OK to shave but not dark hair women. Waxing was the best for me like I said I have very little hair now on my lip and it was pretty bad at one time. I now just pluck the few stiff ones I get about 5 or 6 of them in the corners of my lip. I wax the peach fuzz on the side of my face that doesn't need to be done much maybe 3 times a year it grows back very slowly and its getting thinner not near as much as I once had.... only thing about waking is it don't feel so well but you get use to it...

You are beautiful! My only worry is because I’ve worked in the health care profession…I’m worried about ending up in a nursing home with a beard 😬 I can’t imagine anyone shaving my face with all of the duties our nursing staff are trying to take care of…at 61 I’m willing to give this a shot 😉
That's exactly what I was thinking!!
I’m 61 and have been shaving my face and suggesting to other women to shave periodically since I was a makeup artist in my 20’s. Smooth skin is the perfect base for foundation and other makeup. Great advice!
You were so right! Great minds think a like! Thanks for sharing it.
Thank you! Thought I was crazy to do this. Definitely keeps me looking young😁
I just love you Beth....so help me you are the most amazing, secure woman I have ever known, ( well, known on you tube) I have learned more from you in 6 months than I've learned anywhere my entire life. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you do for us. Seriously, you are incredible. I hope you never change.
Thank you so much Cathleen. You are very kind.
I am so happy I discovered your channel! You always make me feel better about myself and somedays are harder than others. I always enjoy your uplifting and positive spirit in everything you do. Thank you.
Thanks so much for your lovely comment Sheron and just for being with me. I really appreciate it.
Found this video today of all days. It's my 50th birthday. I have noticed peach fuzz for several years now and thought there was nothing I could do. You have taught me a lot today. I can't wait to learn more. Thank you and best wishes.
Read the comments. I have decided not to go this route. Many others do now experience the manly 5 o'clock shadow and their hair is growing back course and dark. I was hopeful when I saw the video but after reading comments... nope. I will not take the chance of becoming the bearded lady.
What generous information! Thank you 💖 it’s better to be loving than being prideful anyway... you have high self-esteem/self-love, that’s how you can share with so much openness and generosity! You’re Beautiful!
Thank you so much for your kind words June! You’re a sweetheart!
I love that you have been so honest and unabashed. Great video. Thank you for sharing your time. You are beautiful.
Thank you so much! You’re a sweetheart!
I find it does make the hairs coarser by shaving. It was also taught to us in cosmetology school not to shave for that reason. Plucking (waxing) is a better option unless you can't take the pain.
Plucking facial hair, comes in thick. So many opinions on this.
You are 100% right I worked in beauty selling Estee Lauder for over 10 years and one of the girls there saved her face and talked to me into it and oh my God I was like a total man 🤮!
It made it way worse you're supposed to pluck the hairs off your face exactly you're exactly right hun 💜
No, shaving does not make hair “grow coarser.” It *appears* coarser because the ends are blunted.
I have hormonal issues as I have PCOS and endometriosis. My hair grows back dark and thick, although many are very coarse gray or white hairs now.
I think it probably depends on your hormones. Just my opinion. I’d love to feel a smooth face, however a lot of peach fuzz is better for me than a ton of thicker coarse hairs that are around my chin and mustache area. Everyone is different.
You look even prettier without makeup!
I totally agree! I feel she looks 10 years younger without it!!😊
I started with the stick thingy shavers, have since grown and learned that a good old fashioned double edge razor is perfect! Love the fresh & smooth face. I’m almost 50, my face is as smooth as velvet!
Take the leap, you’ll love it!!
I often wondered why not use the razor instead of those stick things? Someone said the taxer doesn’t not get the little hairs as good. I don’t see how it can not get them.
Thank you and God bless you for your continuous support and prayer for me throughout my movie career. Once again thank you🌹 you can reach me on my private gmail👇.
Thanks for being so authentic
Thank you! This is such a surprise to me. I never heard that a woman could shave her face and not grow thicker hair. You look absolutely stunning!
Beth I love how real you are thank you for your great videos ❤️
Thank you, Beth! This is such a touchy subject for some women (like me ) and you make it seem like such a simple thing to do every day. Here's hoping my marionette lines will fade in time. Thank you again.
Doesnt shaving your face make your facial hair grow thicker
If you're hoping to get rid of the marionette lines on your face, I will tell you right now that shaving will make NO difference at all in that respect. I too have marionette lines and shave. Nasolabial folds (marionette lines) are due to skin laxity and volume loss, in addition to the effects of gravity. Your skin will be smoother, softer, and exfoliated well, but that is the extent of the cosmetic benefits you will ever get.
@@joanneiannazzo5242 Beth must have said at least 3 times, that it doesn't make your hair grow thicker or darker, or stubbly.
@@Sealust50 no but I started using collagen powder or supplements and in about a month my whole face changed.
I was hating the severe wrinkling around mouth and chin.
I am 62.
God bless Allen, he's such a supportive hubby! Your skin is outstanding, no doubt this exfoliation via razor has played a role. I first remember hearing about it when I read an article about Christie Brinkley's beauty tips, so clearly you're in good company! Have a fun week, Beth! We're finally getting some cooler weather here in North Texas🌱
Congrats on the cooler weather Laurie! Yesterday we just got that here in Kansas and it is great! Sweater weather coming
@@FiftyPlusBeauty Cooler weather means cooler clothes and less sunscreen bc less "realestate" is exposed! 😊Glad you're getting yours. Been a long hot summer here in Texas, we got our August in September!
@@laurieparis2203 good afternoon how are you?
I have been shaving my face for for many years now and can happily confirm that it does not cause you to grow a "beard". I just turned 60 this year & am always being complimented for my skin. Women are always asking me about my skin care routine and when I say that I shave my face they look at me as though I am crazy🤪 Even my dermatologist comments on how beautiful my skin is. Thank you for sharing this & the many other tips you have ❣
Well darn it! Thanks for sharing that!
Thank you for addressing this taboo. I appreciate this so much.
