Lina Brown-Bennett

Because I strive to have life through medical issues that are severe. I've learned beauty in being here with scars means I'm not unpretty.

What is Fab Over 40?

Learn More

What do you love about being over 40?

I love the lessons I've lived long enough to learn. I love being close enough to an age where I'm enjoying being past the bloom of youth. I'm old enough to be respected and considered as someone who has wisdom but young enough to be in the crowd of my elders.

How do you stay fabulous?

I stay fabulous by eating watermelon 2 times a day. I use St Ives products, Johnson & Johnson, Dove, Caress products. I also use Sephora makeup on my skin to enhance me. I finally this year hired a professional makeup artist to come make me over & make me nice. Her name is Shani, she's amazing.

What would you do with the $40,000?

I would put a down payment on a house for my two daughters so they can be home owners in the event that my illness takes my life. So that they never have to depend on anyone to know their way. I never want them to be homeless.
