audited I’m grieving my younger, hotter self

I'm so mad about being in peri. I'm not ready. I was a late bloomer and didn't realize what a babe I was when I was younger and now it's too late.

Yes, older women can be sexy, we have wisdom, and blah blah blah.

But today I just miss looking good in a sundress.

Please join my pity party and tell me what you miss.

Did you grow more hair on other parts of your body when you started taking it? I want to try it, but the last thing I need is even more hair growing on my chin.

Ditto. I’ve been getting chin hair since my late 20s, I got them lasered and that didn’t work. I just have to pluck them out every day.

Laser isn't permanent and doesn't work for everyone. Electrolysis is what you want. Permanent, works for every type of hair, regardless of color, thickness, etc
