I spent about six years trying to buy glow. It was never for sale. Not the serum. Not the facial. Not the bottle with the heavy glass lid. The ten things I actually do: - NMN in water, first thing, before coffee. NAD+ drops as you get older and this is the precursor I take to top it back up. Link's in my bio. - Cold water on the face, twenty seconds. It's de-puffing, not anti-ageing — I'd rather tell you that than sell it to you. - SPF every single day. If you only ever do one thing, it's this one. - A prescription retinoid at night. - A ceramide moisturiser. Cheap is genuinely fine. - Azelaic acid for redness. The most underrated thing in the aisle. - Exfoliating far less than I used to. Stripping your barrier is the fastest way to look older by Thursday. - Protein at breakfast, not just at dinner. - A cold room, and in bed by ten. - Barely any alcohol. This one shows up in the face faster than anything else here. I'm not a doctor. Just the friend who did the reading. If you want my full routines and exactly how I do them, the Ageless Blueprint is in the link in my bio — free. #skinover50 #womenover50 #GlowUp #agelessblueprint
