At the ripe young age of 70, I finally figured out what I want to do when I grow up! What a great time to be alive! And what a great time to be Pro-Age!

Cindy Joseph and I were born 18 days apart. We felt like sisters. While she and her husband were building BOOM, I was still slaving away at my corporate job. In my meditations, I keep hearing that I wasn’t doing my real work. But it took me another 15 years to figure out my real work. More on that later. First, I’d love to share ‘How I BOOM!’

Why I love BOOM!

Cindy’s message is so unique and positive. And BOOM products are totally organic and safe for your skin. I made a promise to myself in my early 20s. I never put anything on my face that I wasn’t safe to eat. So you can see why I love BOOM.

My Morning Routine

My skin is super dry. So I don’t wash my face in the morning. I just spray my face with some filtered water and apply BOOM Cotton with luscious bee pollen. I love the way it just melts into my skin. It’s the perfect consistency for holding in moisture while avoiding any shine. 

Then I move to my favorite Boom product, BOOMSTICK COLOR.  My skin is very pale. Now that my hair is silver, I really need color on my face. All my life, I’ve searched for the perfect blush. Most are powdered and look pink or orange. BOOMSTICK COLOR is the color my cheeks turn naturally when I’m excited or out in the cold. So natural!

I also love BOOMSTICK GLIMMER! I use it to highlight under my brows and along the top of my cheekbones. When the light hits my face in a certain way, those areas of my face reflect so beautifully.

And finally BOOMSTICK GLO! This is a ‘must have’ for my purse. I use it to moisten the skin around my eyes and mouth. And it’s perfect for soothing any dry patches that emerge on my hands or really anywhere. It’s a lifesaver! 

My Evening Routine

At night, I look forward to feeding my face with delicious BOOM products. Here are the steps I follow:

1) I wipe my face with a couple drops of BOOM CLEAN on a clean hot wet washcloth. 

2) I spray some filtered water all over my face.

3)  I put a few drops of BOOM NECTAR on my fingertips and smooth it out as I feel my skin drink up all the delicious oils and royal jelly.

4) I top it all off with a delicious BOOMSILK. I love how BOOMSILK feels so rich and creamy.

Once a week, I use BOOM SCRUB and soothe my fresh layer of skin with BOOM GOLD.

Age Gives Us Wisdom or ‘How I BOOM’

Upon retirement from my corporate career, I felt an urge to give back and make a positive difference in the world. Can you relate? 

To that end, I’m building Your Wisdom Institute, a platform and education center where Wisdom-Bearers can become Wisdom-Sharers. 

If you would like to learn more and stay up to date on all our activities, please visit www.wisdominstitute.com and join our mailing list. I’d love to help you share your wisdom with the world.
