You are beautiful. Thank you for your tips. I drink a gallon of water per day, wash my fash 2x per day applying vitamin c in the AM, apply retinol serum per day, eat healthy, weight training, walk. The #1 thing I do before starting my day is spend time with the Lord reading my Bible and praying.

Sister, I’m only 10 years, behind you! I’m a year out. We’ve got this!! This is YOUR time, now!! Invest in yourself, and pour all the love that you needed, into yourself! Find something, every month, that makes you feel good, more beautiful, witty, creative, or at peace. Being free, can be a soft life. Also, therapy, and Tretinoin!!

I am in a similar boat- 52 and now living with my elderly parents after giving up EVERYTHING and walking away from a living hell. Do NOT believe that you are ugly. You are beautiful! You are strong and YOU are a SURVIVOR! Believe in yourself and the strength it took to leave and start over. Walk straight and hold your head up high! We are walking along beside you.

Gosh, I’m 75 and the wisdom we have gained from living so long would fill a book, right…..maybe two! I think your most important tip was learning to love yourself! I’ve never been really good at this but I truly believe most of our real beauty comes from within. If we choose to believe in ourselves, forgive ourselves and encourage ourselves with kind words then we have achieved a loveliness that shines brightly in this old world!

I also believe if over 60 (I’m almost 66) have hair short or long it’s up to you, & never worry what people think about you, we only have one life! So enjoy it! 🇫🇷🇬🇧🥂🍾

Great video. I love the faith first and daily prayer. I am so blessed to be active, healthy and surrounded by good people in my life. I am 66 in February and I really embrace the time I have been here and truly each moment means so much more. I value what money can't buy. I don't chase after things, I look for opportunities to spend time in nature, learn new things, go to new places I have never been to and cherish those moments with family. Audrey Hepburn said it best, " your best beauty asset is your smile". Keep smiling like you always do Melissa and the world is smiling back. Merry Christmas to you and family.

I’m 72 and I’ve never done any cosmetic procedures. I’ve been interested in makeup since I was 12 or 13. I wasn’t into skin care as much because I didn’t realize how important it was. I never had skin problems, just the occasional huge zit during my period. I did tan up until about mid 30’s and I then developed an allergy to the sun. My advice to younger women is to take care of your skin & avoid the sun & wear sunscreen!! Great video.

Like you, I started wearing and learning about makeup at the age of 14, at first because of breakouts, too! The only foundation I could afford said, "with sunscreen," and I didn't even know what that meant at the time. I am over 70 now and my skin really shows the care I have taken to protect it all these years. And yes, I slept with my naturally curly hair set on soup cans when I was a teen! My mom would clean and save them for me. I wish all young people would realize the power they have over the aging of their skin and bodies. I think posture, staying busy and having a youthful attitude is even more important. #over60

I relate to you so well. I too am 69, turning 70 in January. I FINALLY am embracing my gray…am a natural brunette. It was hard but six months in , I feel free! And I can spend more time and money on new fabric and sewing/quilting. Love all your tips!

We are so close to the same age!!! Although you are a teensy bit older because I will turn 70 in April!!! lol. I'm so glad you are embracing your gray. I can see myself doing that at some time too. Oh how marvelous that you sew and quilt. I cherish the quilts I have inherited. Thank you and much love!!!

@@Melissa55 I loved your crochet cloths and have made several! I had to do something with myself after retirement from Preschool Director/Teacher at our church so sewing and crocheting was it!! Thanks for your tutorials and sharing your life experiences. My mom went through breast cancer in her early 60s. She did very well with all the treatments. She was one of 9 girls but the only one to get breast cancer. She did smoke so there’s that. Blessings to you!

I love the crochet, but unfortunately, we do not have a store here where I live in Georgia to buy such items anymore. I wanted to crochet my first grandson a blanket. He’s nine months old and I hate that we can just walk in the store and buy such items like yarn etc. @melissa55 if you ever wanted to make a couple and sell them please let me know. I would greatly appreciate paying you to make me a few.

Some really great advise. Thank you so much for sharing. I'm not in my 60s yet but getting older has really gotten me down. I'm taking care of my mom and i have a special needs 12 year old. I lost my husband to a horrible death 2 years ago and took care of him for months before he passed. I've taken care of everyone except myself and saying I'm exhausted is an understatement. But you give me new hope. I look forward to watching lots more of your videos.

This came up on my feed, and I am so glad that I watched this video! We are the same age and I don’t feel any different than I did in my teens. I have the ability to remember everything since I was about 2 years old. I remember Tiger Beat Magazine, I remember songs from the 50’s, 60’s loved the 70’s, probably my favorite decade, music and different smells, or fragrances really bring back memories. I always thought that things would always get better as the years progressed. We always had filmstrips in school that said by the year 2000 we would have flying cars and it all looked so great and futuristic! Even though the future was not what we hoped it would be,I always feel optimistic that things can still change for the better as far as the future is concerned. Love conquers hate, happiness and bringing joy to the world through meditation and positive thought and helping others, can change the world.🌟☀️

You look amazing! I am 68 and exercise and do light toning four tines a week. I think that one thing that ages us is thinning hair too. We just have to keep it moving and take care of ourselves. Coconut oil and Zena collagen are amazing products that I use and they work. Aging gracefully and naturally is a blessing!

I stopped colouring my hair during covid and love my hair colour and the condition also improves without chemicals every 6 weeks. Then I started taking biotin three times a week and amino acids every day for increased protein. My nails, hair and skin are in much better condition. Hope this helps someone

Great tips! Thank you for sharing Melissa. I think most important of all is our mindset along with keeping our bodies moving and our brains active. I think our society focuses too much on the external instead of the internal although us ladies would all love to stay looking youthful, I strongly believe that when one feels happy and healthy, we radiate that out to the world and that energy is contagious 😍

Hello my gorgeous Melissa. I love that you are a spokesperson for women over 60. You are a natural beauty, inside and out. Oh yes, the jaw dropping. I remember all of the advice in Seventeen magazine. Interesting. My skin is so dry, that I have to use a moisturizer in my daily and nightly routine. All of our skins react differently. Accepting myself I'd a hard one for me. I'm my own worst critic. Like you, Tretinoin has been the most helpful in maintaining good skin. SPF is an absolute must, no matter what the weather. Eating veggies and fruits, and for me, eating a vegan diet. Thank you for such incredible advice. I just love you to pieces. ❤❤🥰💞
