When it comes to beauty and skin care products for Baby Boomer women over 50 let’s change the way we think about aging and adopt the new mindset of Pro-aging. The term “anti-aging” sounds like we’re trying to kill something. The truth is, aging is beautiful and gives us character. 

Mature skin looks best when we use products that let us radiate our luminous glow and highlights our best features. Below, you’ll find my favorite recommendations to keep your skin, hair, and body looking its best as you age.

When it comes to skin care for older women you can deal with imperfections by using products specifically designed to target your problem.

I prefer to use skin care products that are non-toxic and cruelty-free (not tested on animals) if at all possible, However, sometimes the best products and the least allergenic are formulated with a mixture of scientifically developed and natural ingredients.

The trick to aging gracefully is to enjoy it

Online shopping has made it easier for us to find the best skin care products to meet our individual needs. We don’t have to fight crowds at the mall or attend parties where we buy more than we intended to. The recommendations below are of products I have tried and loved. I hope you enjoy them too.

The ingredients in Biossance’s skincare products include Squalane which comes from 100% plant-based, renewable sugarcane. It is then bio-fermented to create a beautiful result that is highly stable and sustainable. Their skin care products lock in moisture to keep your face and body hydrated.

Specific skin care concerns for women over 50

  • DerMend Mature Skin Solutions – If you are experiencing dry, itchy skin due to a chronic condition or because of medical treatments like chemotherapy, you will LOVE their Moisturizing Anti-itch Lotion, Fragile Skin Moisturizing Formula and Moisturizing Bruise Formula Cream
  • Theraplex Hydro Lotion Daily Skin Maintenance and Dry Skin Protection – This product is accepted by the National Eczema Association and will soothe dry skin almost immediately.

Makeup

  • Bésame Cosmetics – This company is in my neighborhood in Burbank and I love passing by the store because their display is so retro. They sell vintage-style makeup like red lipstick and red rouge. Their products are reminiscent of the 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s. If you want to go Hollywood elegant, you will love this company. They also have fabulous collections with Disney themes that make excellent gifts and include makeup, wristlets, accessories, and much more. Gift cards are available.
  • 3 Graces Beauty – Gorgeous lip products with clean, sophisticated formulas for all life experienced skin. Each one targets the skin’s natural regeneration and repair mechanisms to promote healthy, more radiant skin. We begin with well-researched natural ingredients and super-power botanicals that are free from harsh chemicals and toxins and never tested on animals.
  • It Cosmetics CC Cream with SPF 50 Plus – Foundation on older women often looks cakey and makes wrinkles look worse. And tinted moisturizer doesn’t always cover all your skin’s flaws. Enter CC Cream. It corrects flaws on your skin but leaves it smooth and dewy. It Cosmetics is one of the top-rated CC creams and includes 50 SPF to protect your skin from the sun.

Essential Oils, Aromatherapy, and Fragrance

  • Apotheke – A home fragrance and body care brand. They believe that scent can transform your home, elevate your mood, and keep memories alive. They also offer a full line of bar soaps and 3-wick candles.
  • Thieves Oil from Young Living Essential Oils – I can’t even tell you how much I LOVE Thieves oil. I’ve been using it for years it’s kept me from getting sick. I swear! Years have gone by without me catching a cold, and when I do, it’s much less serious than it ever was before I started using it. All I do is put a drop on both of my wrists over a little coconut oil. The story is that it was originally blended by thieves during the plague who robbed dead bodies to prevent them from getting the plague themselves. (I know, kind of gross) I never go to the doctor or go traveling without it.
  • Skylar Body, Inc. – This company sells natural perfumes and home freshening fragrances. Enjoy their fresh scent that doesn’t have any parabens, SLS, phthalates, allergens, animal-derived products, or synthetic dyes mixed in.
  • Gya Labs – All of Gya Labs essential oils are 100% pure and natural. They are a team of passionate biochemists, researchers, perfumers, aromatherapists, designers, and nature lovers, driven by a green conscience. You’ll find a wide variety of aromatherapy and carrier oils.

Non-Toxic Hair Products

  • Madison Reed non-toxic hair color products – Some Baby Boomer women have bitten the bullet, gone gray and look gorgeous. The rest of us color our hair every 6-12 weeks. That usually means glopping harsh toxic chemicals on our heads. Madison Reed has developed a fantastic line of non-toxic hair color, root touch up kits, and color reviving gloss that keeps your hair soft and gives it gorgeous luster. What I love is that you can keep your hair looking fabulous between color treatments simply by brushing on its root touchup kit. You can also use it to fill in your eyebrows. You may also want to try their wonderful color reviving gloss.  I not only love this product but the people who developed it as well. They have great customer service and all their products can be easily purchased online. Please read my review here.

Hair products for mature women

As we age, our hair becomes thinner. If you find you are picking out half a kitten in your hairbrush either from age or medical treatments, try these thinning hair products below:

  • Infinity Hair – If you’re having problems with thinning hair, this website offers hair fibers that will give you the appearance of thicker and fuller hair in less than 20 seconds. They also offer supplements to help your hair grow back faster.
  • Better, not Younger – Effective hair products for women over 40. All of their products are vegan, paraben-free, sulfate-free, and cruelty-free. You can take a hair quiz to help you choose the products that are right for your hair to nourish, volumize, thicken, and revive. There is also a special category for silver hair.

Nails, Feet, and Hands

  • Barielle – As we get older our nails start to thin out and become fragile. Barielle offers nail strengthening, foot, and hand care products that really work. They also have fun nail colors (with strengthening formula inside) and skin care products for hands, feet, and face.
  • DIAMANCEL #11 FOOT BUFFER – This heavy-duty polishing file for feet in need of intensive foot care is the BEST! – It was recommended for me when I went to the spa at Miraval and really takes off the dead skin without damaging my feet. I would never use anything else. The lady at the spa told me to take it with me whenever I get a pedicure to avoid catching a fungus or some other gnarly condition that you can sometimes get at a nail salon.
