I'm 49, I'm perimenopausal, and these are the hormones I use every single day to stay hot as fuck through the whole thing. Plus the practices that keep them working, and the one peptide I take every single morning... and how I take it is probably not what you think. Want Your Free Personalized Hot AF Plan?

This one is for every woman who's been told her hormone levels are "normal for your age" while she's lying awake at 3 a.m. wondering where the old her went. I was gaslit for over five years before I started hormone replacement therapy. I read my own labs, half the contacts in my phone are doctors, I've been a clinical nutritionist coaching health professionals for over 20 years... and I'm still dialing this in. First, I get into the hormone I rub on in 15 seconds every morning, the one that finally got me sleeping through 3 a.m. again, and the meeting full of businesswomen where it felt like somebody set the room on fire. Then the lab result I swore had to be somebody else's (it wasn't), what changes if you're losing weight right now, and the one women don't bring up at brunch. Then I walk through the sneaky face trick I wish I'd known about 10 years ago, how I keep score at home (sorry, Zak), what Mary asked me on her massage table that I still can't shake, the labs I make sure get run every three months, and the peptide I take every single morning. What it's actually for might surprise you.

I'm 49, and these are the 10 things I actually do that make me look and feel hot AF after 40. Some of them are about my skin, my clothes, and my heels. The one that made the biggest difference has nothing to do with Botox, filler, treatments, or anything I can buy. Want Your Free Personalized Hot AF Plan? Take the quiz Join The Vanity Club.

Under-eye filler was the wrong fix for almost everything I was actually trying to fix, and I found that out after years and a stupid amount of money spent on my own face. What most people call under-eye aging is really five completely different problems, hollowing, darkness, crepey skin, fine lines, and true bags, and filler is only built for one of them. This is exactly what I do instead now, and how to figure out which under-eye problem is actually yours before you spend a dollar. Things I Mentioned: Rewritten Show The Face Up serum My eye retinol My peptide eye cream My at-home radiofrequency device
If I had to start over at 40, knowing everything I know now after spending $1.3 million on beauty, these are the ten things I'd do first, in the order that actually works. This is the anti-aging roadmap for women over 40 I wish someone had handed me, and no, Botox isn't one of them.
If you've got your eye on all these at-home skin-tightening devices promising to lift and snatch your face, but you have no idea which ones actually work, I tested pretty much every one so you don't have to. I'm 49, I've never had a facelift, and I've spent tens of thousands of dollars figuring out which at-home devices are worth the money, which are a total waste, and the $6,000 one I'd never buy again.
