Unlock the Secret to a Timeless Look: A Daily Guide to Looking Younger


Book Description

Are you searching for ways to maintain a timeless and youthful appearance? As we grow older, our skin and bodies undergo changes that can be difficult to reverse. However, there are some simple and affordable steps you can take to look younger without breaking the bank. One of the most critical steps is to ensure that you get enough rest. Make sure to get seven to eight hours of sleep each night to allow your body to recharge and regenerate cells. Exercise is also vital in improving blood flow, raising body temperature, and giving your skin a healthy glow. When it comes to cosmetics, less is more. Avoid heavy and streaky products that can make you look older. Stick to nonpartisan eye shadows, and choose a concealer that matches your skin tone. Pink and neutral lipsticks work well to give you a more youthful appearance. Taking care of your skin is essential. Moisturize it daily to keep it healthy and supple, and don't forget to use sunscreen to prevent premature aging caused by harmful UV radiation. Finally, consider getting a facial every other month to remove deep-seated dirt and support collagen production. By following these simple steps, you can unlock the secret to a timeless look and feel confident and beautiful at any age. Remember, taking care of your body and skin is a continuous process, so be patient and consistent with your efforts. With a little effort and dedication, you can achieve the youthful and timeless appearance you desire.

Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

These Precious Days


Book Description

The beloved New York Times bestselling author reflects on home, family, friendships and writing in this deeply personal collection of essays. "The elegance of Patchett’s prose is seductive and inviting: with Patchett as a guide, readers will really get to grips with the power of struggles, failures, and triumphs alike." —Publisher's Weekly “Any story that starts will also end.” As a writer, Ann Patchett knows what the outcome of her fiction will be. Life, however, often takes turns we do not see coming. Patchett ponders this truth in these wise essays that afford a fresh and intimate look into her mind and heart. At the center of These Precious Days is the title essay, a surprising and moving meditation on an unexpected friendship that explores “what it means to be seen, to find someone with whom you can be your best and most complete self.” When Patchett chose an early galley of actor and producer Tom Hanks’ short story collection to read one night before bed, she had no idea that this single choice would be life changing. It would introduce her to a remarkable woman—Tom’s brilliant assistant Sooki—with whom she would form a profound bond that held monumental consequences for them both. A literary alchemist, Patchett plumbs the depths of her experiences to create gold: engaging and moving pieces that are both self-portrait and landscape, each vibrant with emotion and rich in insight. Turning her writer’s eye on her own experiences, she transforms the private into the universal, providing us all a way to look at our own worlds anew, and reminds how fleeting and enigmatic life can be. From the enchantments of Kate DiCamillo’s children’s books (author of The Beatryce Prophecy) to youthful memories of Paris; the cherished life gifts given by her three fathers to the unexpected influence of Charles Schultz’s Snoopy; the expansive vision of Eudora Welty to the importance of knitting, Patchett connects life and art as she illuminates what matters most. Infused with the author’s grace, wit, and warmth, the pieces in These Precious Days resonate deep in the soul, leaving an indelible mark—and demonstrate why Ann Patchett is one of the most celebrated writers of our time.
