Just about fell off our chairs when we saw this sensational picture of Helen Mirren and her 63 year old bikini bod! Hubba, Hubba!
It’s exciting to see that it’s not over till it’s over! Helen looks fabulous and is a great role model for all of us who still want to look as vibrant and sexy as we feel.
Print this pic out and paste it to your fridge for inspiration.
Now, forget all the excuses. Just eat good food, small portions and watch the white bread and sweets! Why look frumpy when you can look like this?

On a recent trip to the local Home Show, there was a booth with some very perky ladies touting the wonders of permanent hair removal.
I (JoJami) had eyed all those ads and dismissed them thinking, Oh, I don’t need that. But recently I started doing Yoga at 6:00 a.m. and found that even though most of us are sleep-walking through the exercises, I wasn’t happy with my underarms not being as clean shaven as I would like…not to mention, the bikini area… (Oh my gosh, I hate it when I have to shave that area!)
So, I decided to look into the process and be the first of all my girlfriends to try it.
According to Bridget at Brandywine Skin and Laser Centre, cutting edge hair removal salons use a top of the line machine called a Diode Laser which has two types of hair removal settings: Standard, and the newer Pain Free. It’s an upgrade from the old machines that had just the standard setting. After asking around, I found out that one of my friends had the standard hair removal before Pain Free had come on the scene and said, “It hurt like hell”.
So I definitely wanted to go with the new machine. I just got back from my first treatment. Bridget was super quick. I had and I had both areas done and was out of there in a jiffy. There was definitely no pain involved (in fact, it even tickled) and I’m already seeing that there’s less hair I have to shave. So why would they even make the new laser with the the standard removal setting option? Apparently, there are some places, like the spot above your lips, where the pain free one won’t work- Ouch!
I will keep you posted on the results of future treatments and if it is really permanent.
