Hey, welcome back. It’s Saturday. For those of you that are here for the
first time around, I say welcome, and last week I came by and I was in the
same bathrobe, and I had just gotten out of the shower, which is my same
situation now. I had told everybody I was probably going to do my makeup
while we chatted and drink my coffee.

I got so carried away with what I was talking about, which was second
adulthood and getting excited about the next stage in life, whatever it may
be, my coffee got cold, and I never did my makeup. I always like to show
people what I look like without any makeup on, because it’s so easy to
think that the models you see in the magazines look like that when they
wake up in the morning. It’s not true. I have my thin weird eyebrows. This
one doesn’t even have an end to it. This one is the better one, but it’s
still kind of holey.

I think it’s so important to like this, however you look, right out of the
shower. It’s back to finding things good. When you find things good, they
get better.

So sometimes if I do a couple of jobs during the week, they put a lot of
makeup on me. It’s so easy to get used to seeing yourself with makeup. And
if you wear it every day for you job or your life, for whatever reason,
mascara, eyeliner or whatever, when you see that all gone, it’s really
easy, especially for me, because I’m pretty white, my eyes are very light,
and I just think I look like this washed out blah.

Yesterday I had a really good visit with a girlfriend of mine who just
turned 40. She’s stunning. She’s blond. She’s got this rich colored skin,
and she had a little makeup on. And I just sat and talked to her all day
long. When I went in the bathroom and looked in the mirror, I was like, “Oh
my god.” I was actually really surprised at not only how old I looked, but
how bland I looked. And I didn’t have any makeup on. But I’d been seeing
her, so I compared myself to her.

Well, she was looking at me all day, and she loves me, and she thinks I’m
stunning and beautiful. But I remember when I used to do makeup all the
time. I’d be in the dressing room, and quite often I’d be making up a girl
with really dark, rich colored skin, as some of you out there have. I’d
show up, I was in my 20s or 30s. It happened throughout my career. My back
was turned to the mirror because I’m doing their makeup, and they’re
looking in the mirror.

So I do the foundation, and the powder and make them up. Then I turn around
and look in the mirror, and I would think I looked so pale and so sickly,
because my eyes got used to seeing that for the hour that I did their
makeup. I’d grabbed the blush and I put it on, and I put on some darker
foundation. Well, after making up three girls like that, by the end of the
day I looked like a drag queen. I had so much makeup on.

So be careful, and watch out. Realize that you get used to seeing images on
TV, in films, on magazine covers, and then when you look in the mirror,
it’s easy to be kind of shocked, and think that you look bad. That is your
judgment. You can change your point of view.

So what I do periodically is I purposely wear no makeup, no Boomstick
color, no Boomstick glimmer, nada. I go to parties. I go to dinners.
Haven’t done an interview, haven’t done a TV interview like that, but I
would like to.

Do you know about Jamie Lee Curtis going on to The View, and they all came
out without a stitch of makeup on, and they actually brought a white cloth
and wiped their faces to prove to the audience that they had no makeup on.
That rocked. So that’s what I like to do for myself, until I start
appreciating my own features, just as mother nature painted them. So I’ve
been doing that for the past three or four days. I just got distracted by
something on my computer. You probably heard it go bing.

So interesting stuff to think about. So quickly, because I do have to go
out today and do a couple of things. So I’m going to look in the mirror
that’s above the computer, and I’m going to just fill in my little spot on
my eyebrow. Again, I don’t do this every day. I’m make sure that I don’t
get used to doing this every day. Then if I do it, I’m doing it for fun.
I’m doing it for a little add on for the TV camera, which I’ve told some of
you before that for you to look like you look with no makeup on camera, you
have to wear some makeup. It’s really weird. The camera sees things that
aren’t really there, or magnifies things that are, or takes away what
little there is there. It’s bizarre. So I still make them look completely
natural. It doesn’t look like I have makeup on.

This is a Chanel pencil, blond, and I find it the best if you’re my
coloring and your eyebrows are faded. It’s not grey, and it’s not brown.
Almost all the browns have too much red in them, and I find that they don’t
really match. So I call it a greyish brown, and even though it’s called
blond, it’s still dark enough to show up on your skin.

So good thing to pay attention to. You should really match whatever hair
you have there. So when you put it on, it looks like it’s your eyebrow.

What I’ve been doing lately is nothing but a little bit of Boomstick Color.
Across the forehead, just a tad, and it always looks redder on this
computer screen for some reason. It always goes much more red when you
first put it on, so don’t let that scare you. It’s because I’m pushing my
skin, and I’m activating the circulation. That will all relax and go away,
as it’s starting to already. Sometimes I’ll put a little here, because when
we flush and blush, that’s where we get color. We get color where the
capillaries are close to the surface.

So look at that, a little bit of eyebrow, a little bit of color, which
would naturally come if I was working out, making out, laughing with my
friends, having a really, really good time. This is what happens.

So that’s all I do, or that’s all I’ve been doing for the past week. And
there you go. I hope you had fun. I hope you come back, because I’ll be
back next Saturday.

Good morning, it’s Saturday with Cindy. And I’m Cindy for those of you who may not know. Welcome if you’re here for the first time. So basically all I do is chat about stuff. Matters that matter to women. From the most superficial, hair, make up, clothing, kind of trivial pursuits, all the way to the deeper things, the more emotional things. Dealing with loneliness, and solitude, self esteem. The things we have to confront in our society around our looks, our value. Sometimes I go to laughter, and sometimes I go to tears. So if you’re interested, stick around.

I made myself a cup of coffee, and I just got up a little while ago. Hence I have no makeup on. I’ve got my old grey bathrobe that I just can’t get rid of. Every once in a while I catch myself in front of the mirror and think, oh lord, oh lord. But first my daughter gave it to me, she has one just like it. And it’s the best robe ever. And I can’t find one to replace it, I still have it.

I just took a shower, my face is clean, clean, clean. And I just lavished it with a big bunch of boom silk. So I don’t know if you know about boom silk yet. There it is in all it’s luxurious splendor. I give it a little stir because I don’t have any chemicals in there to keep it stirred together. So you’ll see a little pool of olive oil there. Stir it up, and lather it on. I love it, this is my second coat already. But I live in the winter on the east coast right now. For those of you who might be in Australia in the middle of summer, and boy it really sucks the moisture out of your skin. I even have a little cut on my thumb from being to dry. So get that boom silk in there and it helps.

Anyway, I went through a lot of the subjects that you have asked about. I’m actually going to do a little make up while we’re talking, or while I’m talking. The subjects range from sleep to group living, which I have done. I’ve lived in a commune, and I still live in a group, but a very small group with my fiance and our dear friend Atwall [SP].

One of you asked about how to deal with grief. That’s an important subject. It’s something we all have to deal with at some point in our lives. Another one of you asked for a house tour, and having my daughter co-host, which sounded really fun. So today I thought I would talk about another subject many of you asked about. It has to do with, what do I do with the rest of my life. I’ve turned 50, my kids are gone, I’m an empty nester. I’ve had a great career. I’ve been doing the same thing since I was 16 and I’m done with it. I’m full, and I don’t know what to do next.

I think a lot of us are very aware that if your hair is silver, and you have little granny glasses on, and you’ve got evidence on your face that you’ve been on the planet for a while, which mine don’t show up much now, because I’ve got this lighting I’ve told you about that doesn’t allow the texture to show so much. But, anyway, that it’s tough to be noticed at the party, and get the kind of attention you may have been used to when you were younger. It’s tough to go apply for a job and have them clearly greet you with less enthusiasm then they may have if you were younger.

Which always fascinates me because you can only develop your skills and your experience, and you know how, and your wisdom the longer you’ve been doing something. So you would think that a woman or a man would be more highly valued as they got older. Of course that depends on the business you’re in. If they’re concerned about image, they may want youth to pull people in, but, boy, you’ve got a lot to offer.

But that can be very confronting, because there you are, yourself better than ever, and because they see this image that they think might be less desirable, you’re kind of scratched off the list. I believe that is changing. I believe that there is evidence everywhere that it’s changing. I just took a flight down to the Bahamas, which some of you might know if you watched my last Saturday with Cindy. All the flight attendants were women well past 50, and I was thrilled. It was so much fun to see that. So I certainly wouldn’t modeling if people weren’t starting to value age.

So, we have a ways to go. The Pro Age Revolution has it’s place, and we have to keep it going. We should also take the time to feel the gratitude and the appreciation that we are changing our society. I went to a very interesting gather last October called, “Women at Woodstock.” It was about this very subject. I’m 50, 45 getting close to 50, 60 and older, and I’m still full of energy, interesting, and full of enthusiasm, and I don’t know what I’m going to do next, but I want to do something.

So all those little voices say no, you can’t for a million reasons. It could be how you were raised, it could be all the messages from society. It could be the angel and the devil on the shoulder. The old cartoons and the devil saying no, no, you can’t, no, no. And the angel is saying go for it. You’re wonderful, you’re beautiful, go for it.

So we all have to contend with that no matter how old we are. Every age deals with that on some level. But there was a really wonderful women there who is an author, who was the first editor of Ms Magazine, Susanne Brahn [SP] Levine. She’s written about three or four books on what she has coined, “Second Adulthood.” I love that because it means that, well how can I say it. It’s a second time around. It’s another adulthood, so I think it’s a more positive term for what some people seem to feel is a negative.

That was you get older, you get worse. As you get older you become a faded version of what you were before. In fact, it’s not true at all. You are like a caterpillar coming out of a cocoon. Ever stage of life is that. Every stage of life is that. Every stage is a new birth, and a new beginning and a new opportunity. Each stage of life invites you and offers you new opportunities. So I like looking at it as, getting older is good as you know, but that’s what I always say, because that’s what I’m experiencing. But meaning when you were 6, and you couldn’t wait to be 7, and you were 13 and you couldn’t wait to be 16. You were 19 and you couldn’t wait to be 21. We always look forward to the next stage in our life. So that’s what the pro age revolution is all about. It’s time to look forward.

So take an inventory of all of the qualities that you have. The positive qualities, and they probably add up and stack up much higher than they did 10, 15, 20 years ago. Because you can’t take away from who you are, you can only add to it. So start noticing that. Take an inventory, write it down, and you’ll start getting very excited about what you are capable of, and what you have to offer to the world. It’s about gratitude, appreciation, and taking inventory on the positive. Start with yourself and then look around and let it spread, and look at all of life with a positive eye, because if you find it, good. If you find yourself, good. It only gets better.

So there you go. I think I’ve said just about enough. If you like what you hear, and you want to visit again, I will see you next Saturday.

What Are You Up To In The New Year?.

Hey, welcome back. It Saturdays with Cindy. Once again I’m back, and I
thought I would report to you from my hotel room in the Bahamas. I am here
with Lands’ End They’re doing a photo shoot, and we start working tomorrow.

So I’ve had the day to play, and I’d like to show you my beautiful room so
you can see where I am talking to you from. Check it out. Not bad, right? I
like to call this my Bahama Boom headquarters. Check this out.

Okay, I’ll take you back here. The bed, as you see, is gorgeous. This is
the door to a gorgeous veranda, looking out at the swimming pool, and this
way is the Caribbean, out there. This place is at the harbor. It’s called
The Landing. Boy, Lands’ End knows how to treat us well.

So I am going to get comfortable on the bed and talk to you from here. So
here I sit from that gorgeous bed in my room in the Bahamas. I am so happy
to be back. I actually feel like I just fell off the planet for a couple of
weeks the very first time since I launched Boom two and a half years ago. I
had time to reflect and really think about what I want next, how I want to
start 2013, and lo and behold Lands’ End booked me for the second time over
the last year to be a part of their Lands’ End family they created, and
some of us are actually real family and others are models thrown into the
mix.

So I have even more time to be alone and think and kind of decide what I
want to do next. So I hope you’re doing that to. I had started writing an e-
mail to a friend and wrote, “Are you reflecting? Are you revamping?”

So the preface, re is really a good way in a way to consider the new year.
You know what? I’m not crazy about resolutions because they’re so resolute.
They’re so firm. Over the years, I think I told you I have gotten more in
touch with my femininity, the feminine side of things as Jungian says, “My
animas” rather than “my anima,” which I tracked on for many, many years.

Women are random. We change our minds. We follow our intuition, or as I
should say we don’t always follow our intuition. I didn’t follow my
intuition for many years. So that’s what I mean about being more in touch
with my femininity. I am paying more attention to that than ever before. So
following my intuition, following my pleasure, following the feminine way
is not resolute. It’s the opposite of being resolute. So saying, “I will
exercise every day, I will follow a regimental diet, I will,” no, I did
that for too many years. That’s the masculine, and it comes in handy. It’s
a good thing that we have that, but we don’t have to be run by it. We can
use that aspect of our nature when it so pleases us.

What I’m doing is just reconsidering things, reflecting on things,
renegotiating, definitely redoing. My storage locker in my house, we all
have different spaces in the basement, is definitely going to be redone. So
my masculine, focusing on the goal, linear thought, sticking to a task will
really come in handy when I start that project, a project upon my return
from this photo shoot.

But in the meantime, I’m taking a softer approach. So I am not going to
make New Year’s resolutions that I will definitely will not keep. After I
am done speaking with you guys, I am going to some sunrise salutation. I
will start with one. I may end up doing 12. If you’re not familiar with
that, it’s a series of yoga postures that you do facing the East, and I had
considered doing that at about 10 in the morning, and it’s now 1 o’clock in
the afternoon, so I’m doing it when I feel like it. Doesn’t that sound
nice?

I have a three-year-old granddaughter who is actually my fiancé’s
granddaughter, but I’m grandma Cindy to her and I’m enjoying every bit of
our relating. I would never force her to do something on schedule, on time.
She follows what feels good to her. So she’s my teacher. I’m going to watch
her carefully and listen to her and try as hard as I can not to force my
views, my ways, my schedule onto her.

So shouldn’t I be that nice to myself? Okay. If I’m going to have a New
Year’s resolution, that’s it. I’m going to love myself more, be much nicer
to myself than ever before, follow my pleasure more than ever before. So
it’s about more, better, going from good to better. That’s it.

So I’m keeping it short this Saturday. Wanted to say hi, wanted to say I am
looking forward to hanging out with you here, on Facebook for the rest of
this year.

All right. So start thinking about what you’re going to do this year and
let me know. All right. See you next Saturday.
