Are there any beauty blogs not written by 20 year olds?

As in - actually old enough to know whether an anti-aging product actually does something. I'm bored with all these kids with beautiful skin who "review" products then say something along the lines of "I didn't see a difference bit maybe that's because I don't really need ...insert mega peptide glycolic retinotox doubry here..."

I like British Beauty Blogger and its sister site the Beauty Plus, Beautie and Lovely Girlie Bits seem a bit younger but more interesting. I quite like Caroline Hirons but she seems to think everyone needs a 20 product routine!

So does anyone have any recommendations for beauty blogs for the old and wrinkly?

Totally agree about Caroline Hirons - she seems to think you have unlimited time and money. She also doesn't let on which brands employ her - suspect a lot of her recommendations are based on this. She also makes some statements that are dermatologically speaking, bollocks - her obsession with putting oil on spots for example.

I quite like A Model Recommends but she is also young, and frankly gorgeous, so not exactly representative of average womanhood.

Alex of I Heart Beauty blog is closer to 40 than 20. Her skin is beautiful in real life, too.
