How Far Will You Go for Beauty? My PerriconeMD Sub-D Story
How far will I go for beauty? Thanks to Periconne MD’s Sub-D I now know.
Beauty at Wardrobe Oxygen focuses on skincare, makeup, and haircare for women over 40. As skin changes with age, hormones shift, and routines evolve, this section offers honest reviews and practical techniques designed specifically for midlife.
You’ll find detailed skincare reviews, pro-aging routines, foundation and concealer recommendations for mature skin, guidance on embracing natural texture and gray hair, and realistic makeup techniques that enhance rather than mask.
Alison shares personal experiences navigating thinning hair, perimenopause-related skin changes, and the evolving needs of aging skin, along with community-sourced feedback from women of different sizes, ages, races, and backgrounds.
The focus is not perfection, but confidence and comfort. Products are reviewed with transparency, wear-tested in real life, and evaluated for performance, price, and inclusivity.
If you’re looking for beauty advice tailored to women over 40, not twenty-year-old TikTok trends, this is your resource for thoughtful, experience-based guidance.

I’ve never had long lashes. My sister is the one who got the lashes; she complains of them bumping against her sunglasses while I’ve spent my adulthood searching for the best products to curl, lengthen, and volumize. As I have gotten older, my lashes have become thinner and shorter. I’ve tried fiber mascaras, lash primers,…
This post is sponsored by Nature’s Bounty As I’ve mentioned a few times on the blog I’ve been having issues with my hair. It’s been thinning, and it, along with my skin, has been dry and dull looking. I’ve been tested and my doctor agrees it’s likely a combination of stress and age. Well I’m…
Since cutting my hair above my shoulders last January, I’ve found my hair easier to manage, look fuller, and more fun to play with. However, it took a while to get used to shorter hair and I realized my old styling products weren’t cutting it. It’s been a year since the chop; while the length…
I’ve really learned the value of makeup primers. When I was younger, I wanted them so my makeup wouldn’t melt away after a night dancing or day in the sun and humidity. While I still appreciate that aspect of primers, I find primers to be beneficial in multiple ways, especially with my over-40 skin.
A spin-off from the blog Into the Gloss, Glossier is a line of beauty products created by beauty editors with a focus on skincare and makeup being optional. This line is clearly created for a younger generation; from the college-aged models to calling their customer “girls,” I don’t feel as though I am their target…
The older I get, the less obvious I want my makeup. Sure I’ll rock a bold lip, but I find a heavily-made face emphasizes the negative and hides the positive. So when I heard about Perricone MD’s No Makeup Makeup line I was intrigued. Products that will make you look polished without looking too done?…
As I’ve aged I’ve gotten pickier about what I will put on my face. There are few brands I always feel confident using, always know they work, and know they won’t irritate my skin. One of those brands is Neutrogena. With so many brands out there now claiming to transform your skin, it’s hard to…
I’ve worn glasses since I was in 6th grade. I had to get them for being nearsighted as well as astigmatism. I always hated glasses. They made me feel claustrophobic and always slide down my nose. I would rather quint or miss out on life than wear them. And squinting and missing out is what…
