Our online magazine is for women of all ages, our beauty tips and ideas are not only for those women which are young.
If you are between 30 and 40 years old , you will be noticing some changes on your skin. A simple moisturizer will not be enough. You will need to change your moisturizer to one with a richer texture, that will provide your skin with the extra moisture it needs, and it will help your skin to maintain a healthy glow, thus giving you a more youthful look.
Some women, around the ages 45-50 develop brown (liver) spots on their faces, hands and sometimes in other areas of heir bodies. This is usually caused because at that age, our bodies over produce melanin, but it can also be caused to exposure to the sun over a long period. Even though these spots cannot completely disappear, there are some particularly good products out there that can make their appearance fade. But even if you do get them, so what? If you ask us, all women are beautiful no matter their age.
GILL LARNER, a 47-year-old from south Wales, has been playing bingo for more than 20 years. Two or three times a week she checks off her game card in the hope that her numbers will be called and she can claim a tasty cash prize.
Sometimes the pot is a few pounds, other times it can be thousands. She loves the excitement of the game, as well as the chance to have a natter with her pals and catch up on the gossip.
Since last month, though, Larner has mainly been playing at home in front of her computer rather than at the local club. Because of a disability, she said she relies on her husband to take her, but since the smoking ban was introduced in Wales last month, he refuses to go. If she can get a lift with friends, Larner still visits the club, but most of her play these days is online.
She is not alone. Julie Stewart, 40, a mother of two, has also cut back since the smoking ban came in. She now plays every night on the website set up by her local bingo chain. And there are thousands more people flocking to the dozens of sites that have sprung up.
In stark contrast to bingo halls, where high taxes, restrictions on slot machines and the smoking ban – which comes into force in July in England – are threatening their financial viability, the online game is booming.
Last week, St Minver, a company that runs bingo sites on behalf of brands including But-lins and Virgin, published a survey suggesting that 63% of bingo-playing smokers would visit clubs less often and switch to internet games. Roger Devlin, chairman of Jackpotjoy, one of the more established internet bingo operations, said there was double-digit growth in Scotland after the smoking ban was introduced there in March 2006.
