Hint: You may have to start lifting a little heavier.

Recently, I had the chance to meet *the* Martha Stewart IRL (and yes, she was just as cool as you’d expect). Besides her elegance, poise, and overall friendliness, the first thing that struck me about her was her skin. From the moment I laid eyes on her, her radiant complexion made it clear that she is meticulous about her skin-care regimen.

We connected at QVC’s Q50 Summit in Las Vegas—an event that brought together 50 incredible women over the age of 50 to celebrate all the opportunities and experiences that come with reaching the golden years. It was hard to believe that such an energetic, hardworking spirit is 82 years young—TBH, it gave me hope for my future and all of the things I can still dream of accomplishing even after society views me as “over the hill.” And, it was undeniable that Stewart looks just as fantastic as she is inspirational.

So what is Martha Stewart’s favorite beauty product, you ask? I was completely not-shocked to learn her can’t-live-without-it product is sunscreen. Every morning after cleansing her face and applying her serums, she finishes her regimen with tinted sunscreen, she told me. And she’s wise to do so—according to board-certified dermatologist Hadley King MD, FAAD, adding SPF to your morning routine can majorly effect your skin’s health.

“Protecting our skin from sun exposure makes the single most dramatic difference in how our skin ages over time,” Dr. King says. “[Using it during your morning skin-care routine] is a great way to make sure that you are applying SPF every morning.” So that explains her next-level glow.

If you want to be like Martha (don’t we all?), check out these dermatologist-approved sunscreen recommendations to find the formula that works for you, and don’t forget to apply every morning—your golden-years self will thank you.
