My parents had some problems with not drinking enough water. Their doctor said our sense of thirst is not as strong as we age. So, you may not feel thirsty, but you are! It might be helpful to keep a notebook handy where you can write down each time you drink a glass of water and at the end of the day see if you are drinking enough. Each day should get easier. I enjoyed this video! My hair is getting coarser too.
Sandy I’m 77 and I too need cream on everything! One thing I include is salmon or another fatty fish in our diets weekly and adequate hydration of course. I also like Cerave hydrating facial cleanser and keep it in my shower. I also like the daily facial moisturizer and moisturizing night cream(purple label) from Cerave. Thanks for sharing your favorites. I will definitely try some of them. Happy Mother’s Day to you and God bless.
I’m so glad I found you! So informative with so much fun and enthusiasm! I am currently trying to find videos I HAVENT watched can you believe it? I’m a fan! Keep posting Sandy.
My body and hair was extremely dry so I started adding Vital Protein Collagen Peptides to my morning coffee and it has helped moisturizer especially my hair and has also helped my nails ❤
You need to also do dry brushing on legs and arms! Lots of flaky, dead skin falls off and it’s great for lymphatic movement. Life changing. Me legs are like silk!
I loved this video. Thank you for talking about the importance of moisturising. Btw, I was watching this while my grown daughter was here and she works for a big tech platform and she said you’re allowed to use the word vagina and vulva as long as it’s in an appropriate context, and an older woman helping other older women take care of their bodies is absolutely appropriate! So you go girl! A late Happy Mothers Day and lots of love.
You are looking amazing! Skin and hair looks good! Makeup looks good too! I drink water but I am sure not enough! Thanks for all your products and reviews! Love your videos!
Happy Mothers Day, Sandra. So enjoyed your video. I remember reading a book by Angela Lansbury and she talked about this very topic. She was noticing he skin was looking so weathered on Murder She Wrote and went on a campaign of moisturizing, water, and more fruits and veggies. I get busy and forget all those wonderful healthy things too. But it’s time to begin paying better attention to giving our skin its best shot at combating fragility and dryness. Thanks for such a comprehensive video. Hugs, judy
Happy Mothers Day to you also. I’ll have to find that book by Angela Lansbury. It sounds like fun. It’s amazing how alike we all are. Yet we get embarrassed and think we’re the only one. Hugs right back at you.
@@SandraSallin it’s called Positive Moves. I did a good beauty indulgent today. I love gold bond crepe corrector, especially on my arms. Really hits the crepiness. If I don’t keep using it, I hold my arm up and I about die at the folds and crepiness. I met a woman who was a famous hair cutter in NYC. She told me after I shampoo, etc. take a small bit of the conditioner and rub it in your hands and wipe it through your damp hair. Especially the ends. I think it’s amazing. I just have to be careful not to put too much on. I tend to over do all products. Ha ha.
@@SandraSallin yes…the conditioner trick I do most every time I was my hair. Just a dab in my hand and I apply it like you do the oil. I have your same hairstyle, so I put it mostly on my ends and what’s left on my mid section. I avoid the roots. By the time I towel dry my hair and begin blow drying it seems like just the right amount had absorbed and my hair feels great. I do it while I am still in the shower. Good luck, I hope this little trip will work for you. The woman that told me cut Robert Redford, and Marlon Brandi’s hair. She was quite a character.
Do you rinse out the rich conditioner or leave it in. I think I should just stick my head on a bat of oil!!! And leave it in. What conditioner do you use?
Hi Sandra, I really enjoyed your video, I am also very dry, it’s a on going thing because you will always have to do it. I don’t think we have the hormones anymore. I have to moisturize my legs arms and face and everything else everyday. When I wake-up I am dry. I only drink water when I take my vitamins or pills, I also have to do better. Bea
Outstanding! I’m so grateful you chose to discuss this topic and share your recommendations with us! I had forgotten about what a fabulous product the Dior Apricot cream is! My nails are going to be so happy, once I start using it again😊 Thank you, Sandy! I’m also going to get the Amlactin lotion for my feet and legs. I’ll be so ready for sandals! Heading off to do some shopping from the great list you’ve provided♥️ I thoroughly enjoy all your videos and sincerely appreciate all you share with us!
Well thank you. I’m so happy. Yes, your nails and dry bits will be so happy. Isn’t the air very moisturizing in Hawaii? Thank you for all your support both here and on Instagram. ❤️
@@SandraSallin I sincerely enjoy everything you share! Yes, there’s a lot of humidity in Hawai’i, but I still depend on moisturizers…especially now that I’m in my 70’s😉
I am using Humbly Organics in a bar soap. I absolutely love it. I have dry hair from being sick with the virus. I lost a little hair and was desperate. I bought this soap I saw on Facebook and I am so glad I did. It looked better from the first shampoo. I hate conditioner so I don't condition my hair but this works for me. Just wanted to mention in case you were interested. It is 20.00 a bar but it will last a long time. I only rub it over my hair once and it gives lots of lather. Doesn't take much! They also have conditioner bars but I skipped that!
I love your white tops with a tied pop of color! 🤩 Visiting with you and meeting Bob was amazing. And shopping was the best!! Are you wearing your new Victoria Beckman eye liner???
I agree we had the best time with you and Rich. Yes, wearing the VB eyeliner but it’s dots of color between the lashes. I can see the color but don’t know if others can. I also wait for it to dry.
Sandra, I enjoy you so much. You have such good advice and I do listen and try your things. I have dry thin gray hair and just went and had it cut very short . I do like it but now I think I'll try that Moroccanoil brand. I do watch that Blowout Professor and you sound just like him!! LOL Also I drink lots of water a day!! I have always done so and it's just a habit now. Thank you for what you do...don't stop!!!
As usual, love your videos! It was a great reminder that I need to moisturize more. Also, Burt’s Bees makes an overnight lip recovery balm that is great and not very pricey! It’s in a little jar with other Burt’s Bees products. Great for my dry lips!
Hi Sandra, Love your Videos. All great advice. I am the same, I don’t drink enough water! The Late Philip Kingsley created The Elasticiser, for Audrey Hepburn originally. It really works a Treat, I would recommend it. Take Care, looking forward to your next Video, Love Cathy from Scotland 🏴 xxx
I only started to drink more water since we bought a refrigerator with an ice cube maker and when I add the ice cubes I do drink more water…Sandra the dry greying hair thing is definitely a challenge..I also listen to Chris the Blowout guy and found out a few things that definitely helped..the Pureology Leave in Condition has really helped…love your videos…looking forward to the next one😊
Thank you. I like room temp water. Ha! I feel like I should just stick my head in a vat of oil. I use all the products and methods he recommends. He’s a wonderful resource.
Sandra, Im with you on the drinking water. I have never liked drinking water. The main reason being that I find Im just never thirsty plus the fact that it doesnt taste like anything doesnt help either. Ive been making myself drink now since Ive started having some intestinal issues. So my strategy is… I set out 5 bottles of water on the kitchen counter and make myself drink them every day. On the counter they are a constant reminder that I need to drink. Although Im not perfect at it all the time I am much better than I used to be. Sad to say that even after 6 months it has yet to become a habit. I still have to make myself drink every day. 😕
Oh my goodness. I’d be so intimidated by those bottles. You can’t hide from them. They’re right there in your face. Do you put lemon or anything in them? I’ve never heard of doing it that way. I think I’d hide. 😂
I'll give you a hint about the Laneige, Sandra. It's really an overnight product that's meant to be tissued off in the morning. It's meant to moisturize *&* exfoliate; that's how it was marketed when 1st introduced. There's also a difference in the 'flavors'. I see you have the berry; I was not wowed by that. I have found the vanilla to be far more moisturizing & I'm on my 2nd jar. It IS hard to get enough water! I use a fragrance-free moisturizer (Eucerin Advanced Repair) shoulders to toes & then spritz on my own scent. That's a tip for the budget-minded who tend to have sensitive skin. Happy Mother's Day! Blessings! Jackie in upstate NY
Hi Jackie, I would prefer vanilla. Sephora must have been out of it. I would always prefer vanilla. Do you rub it off with a rough towel? Don’t laugh I love the Moroccan oil because I’m lazy and it’s so easy to spread around. Eucerin is an excellent product. It’s more the idea that we need to moisturize our bodily.
I love Rituals for shower cream, body cream and hand balm. They come in various fragrances but each product is beautiful. I have suffered with psoriasis on my scalp for years, I have tried all sorts including prescription products, nothing worked, the Rituals body cream has cured it.
Thank you. I have to look that up. At first I thought you enjoyed the ritual of it all and then I realized it was the name of a product. Thank you for the recommendation. Maybe this will help others.
Hello Sandra! I tried the Amlactin body lotion and, even though I am not particularly sensitive to smells; I can't use this because of the smell! You mentioned it is fragrance free--have you found that to be the case with the body lotion as well as the foot cream? Maybe I got a bad bottle at Costco? Thank you for sharing your favorites.
I find it hard to drink water too. So..... I fill up a big jug of water , put it out on the kitchen bench and I have to drink it all in the day. I do not like ice water so its good to be room temp. for me too ! I find water somewhat easier to drink at room temp. Seeing it there makes me remember to pour a glass out and I do suffer from urinary track infections and you must drink water. for that!!! Gosh its hard to do !! lol
Sandra, i put on a hair mask on dry hair. Leave it in for 20 minutes. Then take a shower. It wont drip on dry hair. You still shave armpits? At 78 i have no more hair there and tiny amount of leg hair. Ha Ha great video. Im trying hard to drink more water.
On dry hair?????? Ha! I do still have hair. Fortunately so I have time to shave and condition my hair👍I think I’m either on my first or second glass of water.
Sandra, you are so adorable. You had me giggling, you can say Vagina on camera. Tammy on Tammys Ageless Beauty talks about using certain washes etc for that area. I like you am so very dry. My skin soaks up moisturizer. I use an exfoliant on my body before I wash and then while still damp, apply a rich moisturizer. I use a rx foot cream called Ammonium 12%. It keeps the bottom of your feet baby soft. You do have to apply with gloves as if you get in on your hands, they will peel. Love it. I use it once a week. It’s not expensive and is amazing how soft your feet are. My PCP writes it for me. One tube will last for yrs. What a great video! Thank you so much for talking and showing great moisturizers for all parts of our body.
My pleasure Karla. I’m worried that UA-cam will get upset and somehow ding me. My feet stay moist when I use that amlactin. So I’m ok for now. Look at all the stuff we have to do too keep it all together. Phew!!!!!
As far as water!! No I never drank 8 glasses a day as per the norm! Now in heart failure they donot want you drinking a lot!As the body will retain fluids!Which is not GOOD for Heart Failure patients!So my body was telling me NO when I was unaware of my condition!Listen to your BODY!!

Excellent content. Great advice. Sandra you are a joy to watch on UA-cam. Looking forward to all your new videos. Happy Mother’s Day.
Happy Mothers Day to you also. Thank you for your kind words 😊
Seriously, your skin looks so good, and you look super fresh. 😍
I’ve taken your advice. No eyeliner except between the lashes. Little dots. Thank you.
@@SandraSallin I just texted you a screenshot for a Google+ hangout from the eyeliner days. I definitely thought it looked good at the time.

Thank you. Cerave has excellent products. I think the face cleanser was too drying on me. I do love salmon. Just not water.
Your makeup looks beautiful and so natural!
To be honest I strive for that.
Fab list of what to use to hydrate our dry bits 😊 I make myself drink water. In summer I add frozen berries.
Thank you. I guess anything that works. Someone just mentioned they put 5 bottles out on the counter each day. I think I’d run and hide from them.
@@SandraSallin lol!
I’m that bad.
Very informative and important information!!!
Glad it was helpful!
I’m so glad I found you! So informative with so much fun and enthusiasm! I am currently trying to find videos I HAVENT watched can you believe it? I’m a fan! Keep posting Sandy.

My body and hair was extremely dry so I started adding Vital Protein Collagen Peptides to my morning coffee and it has helped moisturizer especially my hair and has also helped my nails ❤
You’ll laugh. Everyone say you can’t taste it but I’m afraid of the texture. Such a baby.
Happy Mother's Day.

The same to you👍😊👍
You need to also do dry brushing on legs and arms! Lots of flaky, dead skin falls off and it’s great for lymphatic movement. Life changing. Me legs are like silk!
I know nothing about lymphatic drainage. I hear about it but do t know why I need it. I’ll google it. Thanks.
@@SandraSallin It's amazing..changed my life! ...My skin is like silk now, instead of like the skin of an alligator.
Ok I’ll look into it 👍
