Hair: Style has become shorter in past 5 yrs. I get lazier and lazier-- want to avoid using curling iron, least amount of dryer blowing..
Makeup: Methinks I will have to use moisturizer more often on my face..so my face lines don't show. Of course being outdoors alot means an extra preventive step, plus the sun block.
In all honesty, I look at my face/hair at most, twice during the day. It's been like this in past decade. First thing morning, to do hair, etc. Then later when I'm in a building after coming in from outside. If I wear lipstick, it tends to be light coloured enough, that if I forget to re-apply, it's not that noticeable.
That's it. I now look in curiosity/amazement at some other women who fuss multiple times during the day with their cosmetic mirrors, hair, etc.

JJ, I can vouch for Shea Butter for dry skin. If you apply it while your skin is a little damp, it spreads better and will work into the skin more easily. I had one of those dry scaly patches on one elbow, and the Shea Butter took it away in 2 days. Of course, if you're allergic to nuts, then don't use Shea. I also like Origins Andy Weil line - the face moisturizer is thick without being greasy and will absorb into the skin quickly. I have to trade off face stuff often, so I have the old favorites that I rotate. Another good one is Burt's Bees. I tend to use the heavier stuff at night so it has a chance to soak in, and the lighter stuff during the day.
I don't wear much makeup at all: mostly mascara so you can tell I actually have eyelashes, foundation to even out my skin (I put it on with a damp sponge so it doesn't look like I'm wearing any), and a blush on cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin for a 'rosy glow'. I must be doing something right as my boss made a comment the other day that she didn't think I wore makeup!!

I find my hair easier to care for, mainly because of the new styling tools. Instead of hours in rollers to get rid of friz it is just minutes with a ironing tool. Love it this way.
