Description - Dominique Sachse 

Throughout my 25 years in TV news, and having to take care of my own hair, makeup and wardrobe, not only did I learn to be camera ready, but I also developed creative self-expression along the way. 

I believe in the power of sharing and empowering others to enjoy their best self yet. 

Here, it's not just about the right concealer and smokey eyes, although I love both and enjoy producing the latest in make-up videos. I also dive into questions from viewers about organization, confidence, creating a happy and beautiful home and getting outside the comfort zone, all while blending in a little faith and encouragement along the way. My plate is full, just like yours. I'm a wife, mother of one, bonus mother to five, career-oriented, charity-minded and wanting to make a difference. Won't you join me on this journey?

These are my top 10 tips to look 10 years younger and they are almost all free! Combine them together to not only look youthful but feel better as well.
