You’ve cooked the meals, cleaned the house, raised the humans (or the pets or the plants), navigated work and wellness and decades of doing all the things. So let me just say it loud and sparkly: You deserve to be treated like the royalty you are!
Enter: Princesscore Self Care After 50 - a soft, sacred, and slightly glittery form of self care that centers femininity, pleasure, beauty, and deep, unapologetic rest. It’s not about being helpless or high-maintenance - it’s about romanticizing your routines, honoring your softness, and claiming joy in the details.
Because you’ve earned the silk robe, the rose-scented bath, and the fancy tea in the china cup. This isn’t playing pretend. This is midlife wellness with a tiara.
1. Bubble Baths and Crown Energy: You’re Allowed to Soften
Let’s start in the tub - because nothing says “royal reset” like a bubble bath with essential oils, candles, and absolutely no guilt.
Turn Your Bath Into a Royal Ritual:
- Add dried rose petals, Epsom salts, and a few drops of geranium + ylang-ylang essential oils for a heart-opening soak.
- Light candles in cut-crystal votives and let the flicker soften your whole nervous system.
- Play a soft classical or fairy tale-inspired playlist in the background - harp and piano highly encouraged.
- Sip herbal tea or something bubbly in your prettiest glass.
Bath time is not a luxury - it’s a reset button for your entire energy field.
Princesscore pro tip: Keep a jar of homemade sugar scrub by the tub - brown sugar + jojoba oil + lavender = instant glow and aromatherapy bliss.
2. Journaling Like the Main Character
You, my dear, are the leading lady of your own story. And leading ladies journal in gold pens while sipping rose tea and wearing silky pajamas.
Make Your Journaling a Ritual of Royal Reflection:
- Use a journal that feels special - leather-bound, floral, or even one you DIY’d with stickers and pressed flowers.
- Write with beautiful pens (yes, even sparkly ones).
- Light a candle and make it your sacred moment - this is your time to hear yourself.
Try prompts like:
- “If I were royalty, how would I structure my days?”
- “What makes me feel truly cared for?”
- “Where in my life am I still waiting for permission to soften?”
Midlife wellness reminder: Journaling isn’t just for problem-solving. It’s for witnessing your beauty, your wisdom, and your wants.
3. The Princesscore Night Routine
Your night routine is no longer just about washing your face. It’s your evening ceremony - where you tuck yourself into softness and say, “I deserve peace.”
Create a Night Routine Worthy of a Queen:
- Slip into a silk or satin robe (bonus if it has lace).
- Mist your face with rosewater spray while reciting a little bedtime affirmation:
“I am cherished. I am safe. I am glowing.” - Use a lavender + chamomile diffuser blend for calming aromatherapy.
- Keep a beautiful hand cream or crystal roller by your bed.
Sleep like royalty: Swap your pillowcase for silk. It’s good for your hair, skin, and self-esteem.
4. Tiny Indulgences That Feel Regal (But Are Totally Doable)
Being a queen doesn’t mean spending a fortune - it means elevating the everyday. These tiny acts of beauty are low-cost but high vibe.
Little Luxuries, Big Energy Shift:
- Drink your morning tea from a porcelain teacup, not a chipped mug.
- Wear perfume just for yourself - even if you’re staying home.
- Keep a tiny vase of fresh flowers on your bedside or vanity.
- Use cloth napkins at lunch because yes, you are that kind of fabulous.
- Buy the lotion that smells like vanilla cupcakes. No explanation needed.
These aren't extras - they're anchors. They tell your nervous system:
We’re safe. We’re worthy. We’re allowed to enjoy this.
5. Curate Your Surroundings Like a Royal Sanctuary
Princesscore isn’t just a look - it’s a vibe. It’s how your space makes you feel. Cozy. Feminine. Safe. Inspired.
Bring Princesscore Into Your Home:
- Display your perfumes, books, and beauty products like they're treasures.
- Hang vintage-style mirrors or floral artwork that lifts your spirit.
- Add soft lighting - fairy lights, crystal lamps, or tea lights.
- Diffuse geranium, jasmine, and bergamot for beauty-enhancing energy.
- Style your bathroom like a mini spa: floral towels, fancy jars, a little tray for your pretties.
Your home is your castle. And yes, even queens thrift - your local thrift store is FULL of princesscore decor if you know how to look.

The Truth: You Don’t Need a Crown to Be Royal
Here’s the thing: Midlife is your throne era.
You’ve spent decades supporting, giving, building, doing. Now? It’s time to soften. To receive. To revel in beauty.
To say YES to the pink robe, the glitter pen, the rose-scented bath, and the teacup that makes your heart sing!
Princesscore Self Care After 50 isn’t fluff - it’s emotional nourishment in a feminine, floral, and fabulous wrapper!
Because you're not asking for too much. You're asking for what you deserve.
And darling? You deserve to feel royal!
