I'm constantly searching for ways to do better because I believe life is an evolution. It's not about reaching an end goal and hanging up your hat...It's about continually growing.

Makeup is a way for a woman to look and feel like herself, only prettier and more confident

I look at a woman and I don't see what's wrong with her. I see what's right.

Work hard but work smart. Always. Every day. Nothing is handed to you and nothing is easy. You're not owed anything... No job or task is too small or beneath you. If you want to get ahead, volunteer to do the things no one else wants to do, and do it better. Be a sponge. Be open and learn.

Knowing what you can do at any given time to look and feel better is pretty powerful.

The best thing about being 55 is that I know enough now to know what I want and what I don't want-and what I want is to have fun.
