A nursing home or assisted living facility can provide the special assistance and medical care that is often needed in our later years. Life needs to be explored and savored. If you take the time to set milestones like you did for your kids as they were growing, you will find that when you reach those milestones you will feel the same pride as you did all of those years ago.

Gray Hair While you may be at peace with your gray hair, you may want to consider new makeup application techniques and shades. Gray hair can make you look pale and sometimes washed out. Consider using a darker shade base for your makeup as well as a rose or peach colored lipstick. Choose a slightly yellowish concealer for difficult shadows under your eyes. Use an eyebrow pencil to define your eyebrows. Gray hair can be very striking when paired with complementary makeup. Protect yourself from falling victim to fraud. Many thieves go after older people as they are more vulnerable.
