"Ageing can be really complicated" In her mid-thirties, Gabrielle Requena was feeling increasingly conflicted about ageing, the visible impact it was beginning to have on her skin, and what, if anything, she was going to do about it. "Ageing can be really complicated,” she admits. "I feel like we're shamed for wanting to do something about the way it impacts our skin but also shamed if we don't! Most days, I accept that these changes are a very natural part of growing older and I'm ok with that — but there are also days, when I'm tired, travelling, or when I have a big work or personal event, that I'm less ok with my crow's feet, my forehead lines or the crinkles on my chest I wake up with from sleeping on my side.".
