SENIOR LADY NAIL TOOLS!

https://www.sallyhansen.com I have always loved polished fingernails.  One of my ways  of  winding down is  doing  my nails every Saturday night.  I  used to pay money to have my nails done at hair salons.  I got tired of loosing  glued on nails and getting fill-ins. My nails grew fast and getting weekly  fill-ins were not  an option. I finally  wised  up and started having the nail  tech  paint nails in primary colors.  These  colors of nail polish  were easy  to  find at discount stores.

As a matter of  fact, I started blogging in the year 2000 since I didn't see a lot of beauty and fashion data for senior ladies. I never cared for using a lot of makeup. Thanks to YouTube and the Web I now see how makeup can enhance my appearance. A few beauty tips and  certain hairstyles can make me look younger.  I have so many allergies now  that  I have to be careful what I eat, drink, and apply to my skin.  I am sharing some of the beauty tricks  I use now  that I have allergies: I buy hypoallergenic hair if I need to add faux hair in my ponytails and other updo styles. I can use hair dye any longer. The only color I can add to my grey hair is  temporary hair spray. There are  vegan and less harsh chemically based hair color spray available now. I have even found blue & purple sprays t...
