Transcript
- 0:04SPEAKER_00: Hello and welcome to AG Name for Sissies.
- 0:07SPEAKER_00: My name is Marcy Backis, and I am your host.
- 0:10SPEAKER_00: Well, hello everyone.
- 0:13SPEAKER_00: Hello, you beautiful wrinkle-bearing creatures, and welcome back to AG Name for Sissies.
- 0:18SPEAKER_00: I'm Marcy, your friendly neighborhood dispenser of shade sarcasm and skin truths.
- 0:23SPEAKER_00: Today's episode is brought to you by the letter S for sunscreen, squalling, and stop ignoring your face.
- 0:32SPEAKER_00: We have some dermatologist-backed anti-aging skin care tips.
- 0:35SPEAKER_00: We will make you either love me or want to slap me.
- 0:38SPEAKER_00: And either one is fine.
- 0:40SPEAKER_00: If you think you're too young, too broke, or too lazy for anti-aging, sit tight.
- 0:45SPEAKER_00: So I don't know.
- 0:47SPEAKER_00: Uh my skin has taken a definite hit through all this cancer treatment and everything.
- 0:52SPEAKER_00: And I thought, oh, let's talk about some skincare.
- 0:56SPEAKER_00: I'm taking a big chance today because I am recording this with my windows open.
- 1:00SPEAKER_00: Now I'm recording it at 6:30 in the morning.
- 1:03SPEAKER_00: You would think the city would stay quiet, but it already has awoken and there's been sirens, and if it gets too much, I will shut them.
- 1:11SPEAKER_00: But my cats like the windows open, and we only have a short period of time now before I can't have the windows open in the morning because it's too cold.
- 1:21SPEAKER_00: So, and I'm leaving town tomorrow.
- 1:24SPEAKER_00: And Craig doesn't open the windows for the cats.
- 1:26SPEAKER_00: So we're gonna try.
- 1:27SPEAKER_00: If it gets too crazy, if I notice too much background noise, I will shut them.
- 1:32SPEAKER_00: If it's bothering you, I'm sorry.
- 1:34SPEAKER_00: Wait till next week's episode.
- 1:35SPEAKER_00: I don't know what to tell you.
- 1:37SPEAKER_00: Um, yeah, what's going on with me?
- 1:41SPEAKER_00: I am taking another flight tomorrow.
- 1:43SPEAKER_00: I am flying to California.
- 1:44SPEAKER_00: I'm going to see family, friends, and my oldest child, Kyle.
- 1:50SPEAKER_00: My first trip to California since we've moved that is really based around Kyle.
- 1:55SPEAKER_00: And I'm excited.
- 1:56SPEAKER_00: I'm looking forward to it.
- 1:57SPEAKER_00: I'm squeezing in some friends, a lunch with friends, dinner with friends.
- 2:02SPEAKER_00: Um, I'm going to my nephew's house to see his remodel.
- 2:06SPEAKER_00: Kyle and I are going there and he's cooking dinner, and he's a fabulous cook, so that's always exciting.
- 2:13SPEAKER_00: Um, and they have a beautiful home, so that's nice.
- 2:16SPEAKER_00: Kyle and I will be spending some time down in Long Beach over the weekend, probably do the aquarium, maybe a whale watching, maybe just hang out by the pool.
- 2:25SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
- 2:26SPEAKER_00: It's all up to Kyle.
- 2:28SPEAKER_00: And then on Tuesday, we will be spending the day at my favorite place, which happens to also be Kyle's favorite place, Disneyland.
- 2:36SPEAKER_00: And my bestie Lynn's gonna meet us down there.
- 2:39SPEAKER_00: So that's what's coming up with me.
- 2:41SPEAKER_00: What's been happening?
- 2:42SPEAKER_00: We're still working on buying this two-bedroom condo.
- 2:45SPEAKER_00: I'm not sure if it's gonna work today.
- 2:47SPEAKER_00: We will find out because we asked for a longer closing.
- 2:50SPEAKER_00: And if they don't want it, we will get it.
- 2:52SPEAKER_00: And you know what?
- 2:53SPEAKER_00: That's okay too.
- 2:55SPEAKER_00: I think there's something about aging that just allows you to what will be will be.
- 3:02SPEAKER_00: And that is was really, really, really hard for me when I was young.
- 3:07SPEAKER_00: But the older I get, the easier it's become.
- 3:13SPEAKER_00: So whatever.
- 3:15SPEAKER_00: You know, if it happens, it happens.
- 3:16SPEAKER_00: Here's the deal.
- 3:18SPEAKER_00: The closing was supposed to be October 31st.
- 3:21SPEAKER_00: That was pushed by our real estate agent.
- 3:24SPEAKER_00: Craig and I I'm gone until let's see, today's October 1st.
- 3:28SPEAKER_00: Happy October 1st.
- 3:29SPEAKER_00: That's when I'm recording this.
- 3:31SPEAKER_00: I don't know when you'll be listening to it, but it is October 1st.
- 3:35SPEAKER_00: Um, I totally blanked on what I was gonna say.
- 3:41SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 3:41SPEAKER_00: Um my gosh, I did.
- 3:44SPEAKER_00: I totally blanked on what I was gonna say.
- 3:46SPEAKER_00: That doesn't happen to me very often on the podcast, but it has happened.
- 3:50SPEAKER_00: But nonetheless, oh, our closing.
- 3:53SPEAKER_00: Yeah, got you.
- 3:54SPEAKER_00: We're gone.
- 3:54SPEAKER_00: Um, I'm gone till the 8th.
- 3:57SPEAKER_00: I'm back.
- 3:57SPEAKER_00: I leave again the 17th for Ireland.
- 4:00SPEAKER_00: Craig and I do for his 70th birthday.
- 4:03SPEAKER_00: And I'm a bad wife.
- 4:04SPEAKER_00: His 70th birthday is October 6th, and I'm gonna be in California, but oh well, too bad, so sad.
- 4:10SPEAKER_00: And um, we don't get home till the 29th.
- 4:12SPEAKER_00: Closing the 31st is insane.
- 4:15SPEAKER_00: Secondly, if we do this deal, we're making the unit that we live in a short-term rental, and I have to get it ready and up and going.
- 4:23SPEAKER_00: So, you know, if it works, it works.
- 4:26SPEAKER_00: If it doesn't, I love where I live.
- 4:29SPEAKER_00: Craig and I, yes, we'd like a little extra space.
- 4:31SPEAKER_00: Really, I'm looking for a dining room, is what that gives me, and a little big, bigger living area.
- 4:37SPEAKER_00: But we're we do just find in our cozy little house.
- 4:40SPEAKER_00: And so, and we've remodeled it to the point where it's stunning.
- 4:44SPEAKER_00: So whatever.
- 4:46SPEAKER_00: Whatever happens will happen.
- 4:47SPEAKER_00: So that's that.
- 4:48SPEAKER_00: That's what's happening on that.
- 4:54SPEAKER_00: Hold on, pickles is in the window again.
- 4:57SPEAKER_00: Hold on, we gotta stop this for a second.
- 5:02SPEAKER_00: Pickle?
- 5:04SPEAKER_00: Okay, I have these slanty windows, and I'm on the 36th floor.
- 5:08SPEAKER_00: Now the screens are very strong, but it scares me, and I don't know why she does it.
- 5:12SPEAKER_00: So we got her out of there.
- 5:14SPEAKER_00: All right, everybody.
- 5:16SPEAKER_00: So uh my stewardship campaign at church is going.
- 5:19SPEAKER_00: I had a great group of five people that came and helped me stuff 427 envelopes yesterday.
- 5:25SPEAKER_00: That was awesome.
- 5:26SPEAKER_00: I'm not feeling so overwhelmed anymore.
- 5:29SPEAKER_00: That's awesome.
- 5:30SPEAKER_00: And you know, through all of this, I am trying to relax, and that's not always easy for me.
- 5:37SPEAKER_00: So working on that, working on that.
- 5:42SPEAKER_00: Anything else new?
- 5:43SPEAKER_00: Health is good, which is great.
- 5:47SPEAKER_00: I'll take it.
- 5:47SPEAKER_00: Oh, October 1st, breast cancer awareness month.
- 5:52SPEAKER_00: Yes, get your mammogram.
- 5:55SPEAKER_00: I don't care how old you are.
- 5:57SPEAKER_00: As you all know, last October, my mammograms are in November.
- 6:02SPEAKER_00: And I'm gonna tell the story real quick.
- 6:04SPEAKER_00: My mammograms are every November.
- 6:07SPEAKER_00: In October, I fell asleep on the couch, woke up, and I had had a dream that I had found a lump.
- 6:15SPEAKER_00: And I thought my my bestie had gone through breast cancer, thought I was just thinking about her.
- 6:21SPEAKER_00: But I thought I should feel there.
- 6:23SPEAKER_00: Oh my gosh, there was a big old lump.
- 6:25SPEAKER_00: And yes, I had breast cancer.
- 6:27SPEAKER_00: So that was not found on the November 24 mammogram.
- 6:36SPEAKER_00: I mean November 23 mammogram.
- 6:38SPEAKER_00: And by November 24, I had cancer.
- 6:42SPEAKER_00: So it is breast cancer awareness.
- 6:44SPEAKER_00: Let's get that taken care of, ladies.
- 6:47SPEAKER_00: As there's an episode I have about being your own health advocate.
- 6:52SPEAKER_00: And I don't know if it's on this platform or if it's on my Inside Marcy's mind, but look it up.
- 6:58SPEAKER_00: It's a good one.
- 7:00SPEAKER_00: You are the only person in control of your health.
- 7:02SPEAKER_00: No one else.
- 7:03SPEAKER_00: You can't blame anyone if anything happens.
- 7:05SPEAKER_00: It's on you.
- 7:06SPEAKER_00: Not your doctors, not your husband, not your kids.
- 7:09SPEAKER_00: It's you.
- 7:11SPEAKER_00: So take care of yourself.
- 7:13SPEAKER_00: I also want to announce, as you know, I have Inside Marcy's Mind as a second podcast.
- 7:18SPEAKER_00: Well, I'm coming up with a third.
- 7:20SPEAKER_00: And the reason is last week on my Inside Marcy's Mind podcast, I talked about my alcohol journey.
- 7:29SPEAKER_00: And it sparked something.
- 7:31SPEAKER_00: And I am going to start a podcast on all things sobriety.
- 7:37SPEAKER_00: It's going to be called Unbottled.
- 7:39SPEAKER_00: And it's not just for the alcoholic.
- 7:41SPEAKER_00: Let me tell you, if you have addictions of any kind, shopping, shopping, shopping, oh, did I get stuck there?
- 7:48SPEAKER_00: Sorry.
- 7:49SPEAKER_00: Anything, it'll be for you.
- 7:52SPEAKER_00: But that is going to be coming out in November.
- 7:55SPEAKER_00: It's called Unbottled.
- 7:56SPEAKER_00: If there's someone in your life that you think needs to listen to it, I will drop three episodes the first time and I'll, you'll, you'll know here when I do.
- 8:03SPEAKER_00: So that's what's going on with me.
- 8:05SPEAKER_00: I don't have enough of my life.
- 8:06SPEAKER_00: I thought a third podcast would be necessary.
- 8:09SPEAKER_00: So, but on this one, we talk about all things aging.
- 8:13SPEAKER_00: And I try to keep it that way.
- 8:17SPEAKER_00: So let's take a moment, take a beat, get some more coffee.
- 8:20SPEAKER_00: You guys get whatever you need if you're driving, focus on that road.
- 8:25SPEAKER_00: Hi, Angie.
- 8:26SPEAKER_00: Usually you listen while you're driving.
- 8:29SPEAKER_00: And um focus, and I'll be right back.
- 8:39SPEAKER_00: Well, hope you got your coffee, whatever you needed.
- 8:44SPEAKER_00: I did some editing while I was gone.
- 8:48SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 8:50SPEAKER_00: Why anti-aging now?
- 8:52SPEAKER_00: Dermatologists actually recommend starting some anti-aging products in your 20s.
- 8:58SPEAKER_00: Well, guess what?
- 8:58SPEAKER_00: Too late.
- 9:00SPEAKER_00: That's right.
- 9:01SPEAKER_00: The decade when you thought you were invincible.
- 9:03SPEAKER_00: Totally.
- 9:04SPEAKER_00: Most of us didn't even buy moisturizer until our 30s.
- 9:07SPEAKER_00: So if you're listening and you're in your 35, 45, 55, this is not a lecture.
- 9:13SPEAKER_00: It's a recovery plan.
- 9:15SPEAKER_00: And my age group specifically, there was no SPF in our sunscreen.
- 9:21SPEAKER_00: We used baby oil.
- 9:22SPEAKER_00: I put iodine in mine.
- 9:23SPEAKER_00: I laid out with foil.
- 9:25SPEAKER_00: I lived in California.
- 9:26SPEAKER_00: I went to the beach.
- 9:27SPEAKER_00: I was so dark at my prom.
- 9:30SPEAKER_00: I look like another ethnicity.
- 9:32SPEAKER_00: It's just what I did to my skin is unforgivable.
- 9:37SPEAKER_00: I worked in the beauty industry.
- 9:39SPEAKER_00: I was a hair colorist and I know about skincare, and I didn't give a crud.
- 9:44SPEAKER_00: I really didn't give a crud till recently, to be honest with you.
- 9:48SPEAKER_00: And it shows my skin could be a lot better.
- 9:51SPEAKER_00: My Nana had really beautiful skin.
- 9:55SPEAKER_00: But this is not a lecture.
- 9:57SPEAKER_00: It's a recovery plan.
- 9:58SPEAKER_00: If you're younger, if you are my age, I'm turning 65 in January.
- 10:04SPEAKER_00: It's not too late.
- 10:06SPEAKER_00: It really isn't.
- 10:08SPEAKER_00: Moisturizing from the inside with water and moisturizing from the outside will give your skin a better look starting today.
- 10:16SPEAKER_00: I'm just going to tell you that.
- 10:18SPEAKER_00: The biggest mistakes people make, let's talk about those first.
- 10:23SPEAKER_00: Skipping SPF on a cloudy day, clouds don't protect you, honey.
- 10:28SPEAKER_00: They just don't.
- 10:29SPEAKER_00: All right, there's a siren in the background.
- 10:31SPEAKER_00: I hope it doesn't get too loud.
- 10:33SPEAKER_00: Skipping aftercare.
- 10:35SPEAKER_00: Don't waste money on treatments and then use a cheap cream.
- 10:40SPEAKER_00: So if hold on.
- 10:43SPEAKER_00: I hope that's not too loud.
- 10:45SPEAKER_00: No antioxidant serum serum.
- 10:49SPEAKER_00: Pollution is aging you faster than your ex.
- 10:51SPEAKER_00: Let me tell you something.
- 10:53SPEAKER_00: An antioxidant serum is important.
- 10:57SPEAKER_00: Ignoring hydration.
- 10:59SPEAKER_00: You can't run a car on water instead of oil.
- 11:02SPEAKER_00: I am telling you hydration is key.
- 11:04SPEAKER_00: There's all these other things, and they're all great.
- 11:08SPEAKER_00: And they add to you.
- 11:10SPEAKER_00: But let me tell you something.
- 11:13SPEAKER_00: Drinking enough water, getting your hydration, and using a really good moisturizer, if that's all you want to change, you will see a difference in your skin.
- 11:26SPEAKER_00: Skipping retinoids.
- 11:27SPEAKER_00: Retinoids are your skin's gym membership.
- 11:30SPEAKER_00: So if you're not using a retinoid, use a retinoid.
- 11:36SPEAKER_00: Okay, forgetting your lips, nobody wants pirate lips.
- 11:39SPEAKER_00: That is a fact.
- 11:40SPEAKER_00: So I have found O'Keefe's lip repair.
- 11:44SPEAKER_00: It comes in a little jar, a little pot.
- 11:49SPEAKER_00: That has made a huge difference in my lips.
- 11:51SPEAKER_00: I find I, as I've aged, and I know friends are like this as well, my lips are a lot more sensitive to glosses.
- 12:01SPEAKER_00: I can't, it's hard for me to wear a lipstick, period.
- 12:03SPEAKER_00: I can wear a gloss.
- 12:04SPEAKER_00: Lipsticks are really hard.
- 12:07SPEAKER_00: Um, whatever's in them irritates my lips.
- 12:10SPEAKER_00: But I have found this O'Keefe lip repair in a jar is amazing.
- 12:18SPEAKER_00: It moisturizes my lips.
- 12:20SPEAKER_00: I use it morning, night, and I keep it in my purse and put it on during the day.
- 12:23SPEAKER_00: My lips look a lot better, a little bit more plump.
- 12:27SPEAKER_00: I'm lucky I don't have the receding lips yet.
- 12:31SPEAKER_00: And I know that happens.
- 12:33SPEAKER_00: I had pretty full lips when I was young.
- 12:35SPEAKER_00: So I think that's helping me as I'm aging.
- 12:37SPEAKER_00: My ears are bigger though.
- 12:39SPEAKER_00: I have really big ears now.
- 12:40SPEAKER_00: You know, your nose and your ears never stop growing.
- 12:43SPEAKER_00: That is a fact.
- 12:44SPEAKER_00: Look it up.
- 12:46SPEAKER_00: And my ears, ugh, my earlobes, I hate my earlobes.
- 12:49SPEAKER_00: Isn't it funny the things we focus on on ourselves?
- 12:51SPEAKER_00: I hate my earlobes.
- 12:52SPEAKER_00: And you know, all know me.
- 12:53SPEAKER_00: I wear my hair like skin tight short.
- 12:56SPEAKER_00: And my earlobes, so I have to wear bigger earrings now because my earlobes are so big.
- 13:02SPEAKER_00: It really is just funny what we what we zoom in on on ourselves.
- 13:06SPEAKER_00: There's a lot of other things about myself I don't like, but my ears are number one right now.
- 13:12SPEAKER_00: So, what do dermatologists like?
- 13:16SPEAKER_00: Here's some dermatologist picks.
- 13:18SPEAKER_00: I got this information, if you want to know where, from um Real Simple Magazine.
- 13:23SPEAKER_00: It's an article they had.
- 13:25SPEAKER_00: So these are some things that they came across that dermat dermatologist approved product picks.
- 13:32SPEAKER_00: I haven't tried any of them.
- 13:34SPEAKER_00: I will tell you where I get my skincare is at Trader Joe's.
- 13:39SPEAKER_00: Trader Joe's products are high quality, well made, really good, and priced right.
- 13:45SPEAKER_00: So if you want to look for an affordable skincare solutions, SPF, moisturizer, oils, uh, antioxidants, hyaluronic acids, all of that you can get it at Trader Joe's.
- 13:59SPEAKER_00: That is my suggestion.
- 14:01SPEAKER_00: It's high quality, affordable.
- 14:07SPEAKER_00: Okay, but here are some dermatologist-approved product picks from Real Simple Magazine.
- 14:14SPEAKER_00: Bioelements SPF 50 face screen, daily sunscreen, no white cast, and it's calming to the skin.
- 14:22SPEAKER_00: Another bioelements VC10 nightly bright overnight brightening with vitamin C.
- 14:30SPEAKER_00: For me personally, anything with vitamin C is irritating to my skin.
- 14:35SPEAKER_00: Can't tell you why.
- 14:37SPEAKER_00: I just know it is through trial and error, more air than anything.
- 14:42SPEAKER_00: Coarse Black Pine Use Activator, an antioxidant hyaluronic acid.
- 14:48SPEAKER_00: Hmm.
- 14:49SPEAKER_00: I like Coarse products, Coars, K-O-K-O-R-R-E-S, Black Pine.
- 14:56SPEAKER_00: I feel like you're gonna put sap on your face.
- 14:59SPEAKER_00: Anyways, that's one.
- 15:01SPEAKER_00: Coarse Santorini Grape Cream, barrier support, budget friendly, retinol night cream, encapsulated retinol in gentle levels.
- 15:12SPEAKER_00: So encapsulated means you've seen them in those little like little pills.
- 15:16SPEAKER_00: They look like a little, and you pop the top and you squeeze it onto your face.
- 15:20SPEAKER_00: The nice thing about encapsulated products is they don't get bacteria in them.
- 15:25SPEAKER_00: And this says that this um retinol night cream is in gentle levels.
- 15:33SPEAKER_00: And I don't have the, I don't know who makes that one.
- 15:36SPEAKER_00: That's helpful, Marcy.
- 15:38SPEAKER_00: I left that out of my research.
- 15:41SPEAKER_00: Lano lip sunbal SPF 30 lip sunscreen, so you don't look crusty and you don't look like a pirate.
- 15:47SPEAKER_00: No pirate lips here.
- 15:53SPEAKER_00: You know, again, I say I have I have not been great with my skincare probably until the after 50.
- 16:00SPEAKER_00: After about 55, when I saw my skin change, man, from 55 to 60, my skin took a dive.
- 16:08SPEAKER_00: And I didn't realize it was gonna be so bad.
- 16:11SPEAKER_00: So, what kind of a routine can you have with your skincare?
- 16:15SPEAKER_00: So, morning cleanser, antioxidant, moisturizer, spf.
- 16:19SPEAKER_00: That's the drill.
- 16:20SPEAKER_00: Cleanser, antioxidant, moisturizer, sp.
- 16:25SPEAKER_00: Evening cleanser, and you know what I have?
- 16:27SPEAKER_00: I've been using, and I don't know the brand, but just look at any brand, I've been using a cleansing balm, B-A-L-M.
- 16:35SPEAKER_00: It's very moisturizing to the skin.
- 16:37SPEAKER_00: Again, moisture's key.
- 16:39SPEAKER_00: So you don't want a cleanser that's gonna strip your skin.
- 16:42SPEAKER_00: What are they building out there in the city at?
- 16:43SPEAKER_00: It's not even seven in the morning.
- 16:45SPEAKER_00: Evening cleanser, retinoid, brightening cream, optional moisturizer.
- 16:53SPEAKER_00: So in this, they're feeling your antioxidant in the morning, your retinoid in the evening.
- 16:59SPEAKER_00: Starting with A, antioxidant, ending with an R, retinoid, if that helps you remember.
- 17:06SPEAKER_00: Start one product at a time and patch test.
- 17:10SPEAKER_00: Progress, not perfection.
- 17:11SPEAKER_00: Okay, what is a patch test?
- 17:13SPEAKER_00: The patch test is use that product on a little bit of your area of your face for a couple days.
- 17:19SPEAKER_00: Make sure you don't get any rashes.
- 17:21SPEAKER_00: Don't slather it all over you if you've never used it.
- 17:24SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 17:26SPEAKER_00: I learned that in hair color.
- 17:27SPEAKER_00: Hair color, you're supposed to always patch test.
- 17:29SPEAKER_00: Do we know, but it is what we learn in beauty school.
- 17:36SPEAKER_00: But start one product at a time.
- 17:41SPEAKER_00: Again, you don't want to mess up your skin.
- 17:44SPEAKER_00: The whole idea of this is to make it better, not worse.
- 17:50SPEAKER_00: If you have a product and products that you love, send them to me.
- 17:53SPEAKER_00: I'd love to share them with anybody.
- 17:54SPEAKER_00: If you have something, you can send them to AgingFast, the number one, AgingFast1 at gmail.com, AgingFast1 at gmail.com.
- 18:04SPEAKER_00: You can get all of my episodes at Aging for Sissies Podcast.com.
- 18:10SPEAKER_00: You can share it with your friends.
- 18:12SPEAKER_00: I am really looking to build these platforms.
- 18:16SPEAKER_00: So if you can share with your friends, um, I would really appreciate it.
- 18:20SPEAKER_00: If you could give me feedback, um that would be great.
