It was quite interesting and I am very pleased to know that other women are pleased with Tri-Luma fade cream and retin-A. I am currently on my third week and my skin is amazing. My facial wash is by Mary Kay for normal to oily skin and this combination works very well. I am so into looking good because the outer appearance is what a person see's first. I am going to continue using Tri-Luma because I am an African-American women who is satisfied with the results thus far. I have read this whole afrobella article.

Your mom looks wonderful. I can tell that her inner and outer beauty has been passed on to you. This would also be a great mothers day clip. Young women need to know that beauty is not just what you see on the outside and it shows that if you take care of yourself from a young age you can still look great as you get older. Fantastic article! Bella,

So don’t gossip. Don’t malign other women - it shows in your face, your demeanor, how you carry yourself. I have found that the women who always talk shit about other people - it shows in their face as they get older. And those who are at peace within themselves, they don’t have that problem. And therein lies their beauty. Beauty is as beauty does.” This is indeed the fountain of youth. Bless your mom's heart for her wonderful outlook. As a "bella of a certain age" I can attest to perimenopause causing major changes in skin. Loss of hormones is drying. My face would be in much worse shape without the use of a serum, and I don't have to spend $50 either; Source Naturals Skin Eternal Serum gives me alpha lipoic, DMAE and glycolic acids in a serum in the $20 range. And as I too suffer from melasma, I'm off to make a dermatologist appointment and ask about Tri-Luma. 5. “Beauty comes from within you. So don’t gossip.

My mother is currently experiencing that same problem. She even developed adult acne when prior to this stage, she had flawless skin. But I suggested she use the Murad Hormonal Aging Line. It combats all those signs of aging (dehydration, acne, wrinkles, etc.) in those who are either in the perimenopause or menopause stages. It's worked really well for her. The products contain plant-based estrogens, skin-firming ingredients, and tons of antioxidants. I believe her favorite is something called, "Age Balancing Night Cream."
