When doing market analysis I see this heartbreaking problem in my clinic all the time. Women spend time and money on their skin prior to having a baby and then ten years later they are sitting in my treatment room depressed and lost. They have given their heart, sole and body to their family and the price they have paid is that they look 5 to 10 years older than they should. Are you aging faster because you had children.
The marketing and promotion companies have all said to me target 25-35 year old non-mothers and then the 45-75 year old women. Unless you are selling baby/kid products the women with young children will not buy a thing for themselves. This is so sad. The pressure of being the perfect mother is aging the person inside.
How do we stop this travesty? Aging faster because you had children
Studies have shown that a happy mother that still has an interest outside the “baby” is more happy and healthy and so is the baby. Wether this interest is jogging every morning where she can listen to her favourite music. A dance classes once a week. Mine was champagne and candle bath on Sunday afternoon where I pampered myself and did my personal grooming of a weekly exfoliation and hydrating mask. Also I would wake up with my husband at 5am before he went to work to have a quiet cupper together without any children “just our time”. Even though our children have all grown up we still have the cup of tea in the morning it’s a great way to start the day, a half hour date with your partner. This little “me time ritual” was my sanity break, my ability to keep the “Me” in me plus it didn’t cost the earth.
