WSG 72: For premium subscribers — Rose Prieto answers your burning skincare questions
In case you missed last week, we spoke with Rose Prieto on all things skin related! Here is a link to Rose’s website to find out more about her! Please see below for the vlog interview and lots of insight into (aging) skin from Rose Prieto.
Skin! Skin care, Botox, filler, baggy eyes and saggy jowls!
I am excited to develop a group of “regulars” who specialize in areas that are of interest to us! Some are Mavens, people I have already interviewed and some will be new. What areas would you like to see get covered regularly?
This week I’d like to focus on the Rose Prieto interview-o-ramas! We spent over three hours talking in three videos, and Rose wrote out answers to thirteen questions from you all! Here is a sample of the questions and below are a few of her answers that we cover in this article:
Where do I start with my skincare if I’m just getting started at almost 50?
Do the home lasers/LED tools really work? If so, which ones?
What do you think of the brand Sisley and why is it so expensive?

I do not want to look like a Bravo housewife! The good news is, it's never too late to start a skincare regime!
If you are 50, I would love to know the lifestyle habits that have led to this point in your life! Do you participate in outdoor activities? Have you been in the habit of applying broad-spectrum sunscreen, head to toe, every day, even in cloudy weather? Do you consume nutrient and water-rich foods? Do you exercise? Do you get enough sleep? Is your stress level excessive? Are your hormones balanced? Have you ever driven in a car without wearing sun-protective clothing and gear?
If you are the average woman in America, I am certain that the answer to (at least) one of these questions is an emphatic YES! Unless you have lived in a cave without sunlight for your first 50 years, your skin is probably showing signs of sun damage, as well as a compromise in its laxity. This may have inspired your question.
