It is all about aging gracefully
I refuse to be part of a system that tells us that wrinkles are bad or that we have lost our beauty because we have wrinkles and fine lines. No, we are more graceful as we age and wrinkles are part of us becoming more who we are and that’s ok.
I hope we can love every part of our body or learn how to love every part of our body.

Matcha green tea powder is super rich in antioxidants. One study found that Matcha has 137 times the polyphenols than regular green tea. Food that are rich in polyphenols prevent the spread of free radical damage.
