A good facial- nice to have glowing skin. Teeth whitening also gives a nice boost!

Saie Glowy Super Gel, used as a highlighter. I don't know why, but it makes my whole face look better.

Being thinner (I can absolutely not feel genuinely good heavier and I have tried) and putting on just small amounts of makeup.

Fitting well into clothes that didn't fit before and a post hair cut blow out.

A little Botox brow lift makes me feel much cuter and more approachable.


Agree -- a little Botox is a confidence boost for sure.


But OP is 40, she might not need anything in that line just yet.


40is the age where that Botox is really going to perk things up without being obvious.

I got a pair of "chunkier" everyday earrings recently and I'm amazed at how much brighter my face looks wearing them. I've always just worn small studs day to day, but I decided I wanted something a bit showier so got some thicker gold "huggy" earrings and I think I look noticeably better in them making no other changes to my hair or makeup or dress.

Another vote for good hair days and when I am keeping up with exercise.
