Someone once said the best makeup is a smile. You have a beautiful face to add to that!

I miss your presence in the world Miss Phyllis. Can't wait to meet you one day.

Its your christian spirit that shines through - I'm a ponds girl, I wear my hair up every day because I seem to be always in the kitchen cooking LOL Thanks for sharing we should all take your advice!

Ms. Phyllis, I'm 54 years old and I agree with everything you just said. You are confident and comfortable with who you are and that is a priceless gift. God bless you.

Naturally beautiful always - inside and out. And very humble and modest. Miss you Miss Phyllis

You are so beautiful to me. Your skin and hair always reflects your good care. You are amazing in so many, many ways.

I think you look wonderful for 70 years old.

You definitely don't look like you're in your 70's. I thought you were 61! I think your youthfulness is because of your diet, minimal product use, and good amount of sleep and you probably handle stress very well! I really love watching your videos! I watch them every night. It's a part of my nightly routine for me, haha! 😊

Do not look 70 .. I agree

Prell?! Oh my gosh you're taking me back Phyllis. I can still remember watching those commercials on TV with the pearl slowly floating to the bottom of the bottle. And I was rolling on the floor practically listening to you talk about not wearing make up and especially nail polish. My daughters do not understand what I mean when I say I cannot wear nail polish on my fingers because I can feel it on there - I am glad I am not alone!

just discovered this wonderful and beautiful woman on this channel! 70 years old that looks like a 50 year old at most and who is very interesting and smart as a woman, a wife and a mother! I am already addicted to her videos!

You don’t look 70.Believe me.❤❤❤

It's those good Southern genes.

Your beauty was mostly in how you "carried" yourself!💕

Hi Phyllis, I am almost 50 and I agree about the makeup. The longer you go without it the less you want to wear it. I have become a stay at home wife. I babysit and sell on Ebay and so far the Lord is providing for us nicely. My husband works in automotive and he and I love that I can be home at home. I love your recipes and tips! You the Proverbs 31 type woman! Thanks for your kindness and sharing your life with us!

Such a natural beautiful woman.

We are enamored by you and your natural beauty. Truly your inner beauty shines through, too. I believe this is what makes you so captivating! Just love, love, love watching your show. 💜❤🧡💛

Miss Phyllis, I have your identical hair. Fine and no curl will stay. I use my conditioner in a way you might be interested in. I take a small amount, after I get out of the shower, about a nickel to a quarter size....rub it in my hands and rub it through my hands, just like you do in the shower. I leave it in, then comb. It makes my hair shiny and easy to deal with. Hugs, PS People love how natural and healthy and real you are. Not one fake thing about you. Hugs, Judy

You are a beautiful woman as your beauty comes from within. Please don't stop making the videos.

People are asking for this Video because You're skin is Gorgeous! You can tell that You have eaten Nutricious Food in your life and it shows! Thank You for Your Videos! We appreciate You so much!😊

HI like your videos I am Pam Jennings from monroe,la.I met you yesterday.I retired from a disability of genetic bone disease,2 years ago and am very limited on what I am able to do,My whole life changed drasticly when I injured myself at work.I was self employed sense 18,owned resturants,and 2 night clubs in south Louisiana.I opened a pet shop whrn my oldest daughter was born.I always wanted to be a vet.but my parents divorced when i was 12,therefore i dropped out of xchool in 11 grade and self taught myself dog grooming by showing my aunts mini poodles,and my poms. I lucked out and had a successful poodle breeder that showed me the basics,I picked it up loved it and was self employed 42 years grooming,trained my ex husband and both my daughters how,but 5 years ago I fell carring a fat cocker and messed up 3 disk in my back.i went from cowgirl gogetter to old lady candyass that has to depend on meds to get out of bed,but to get to what i really wanted to share,Being in dog hair business for so long plus 18 of those years i sub contracted out of the state vet clinic.I learned alot about hair,My husband loves long hair.and I have stated greying to it gives a silkier texture not mentioning static electricity.My hair is thick and almost to my rear.Try while washing it use coconut oil like you cook with better than olive oil heathwise my husband takes a teaspoon a day any way use it for you face elbows,feet and while in your hair take a wide tooth comb and comb it through your hair if tou get a snag through some water and comb threw.NO MORE TANGLES OR STATIC ELECTRICITY!!

Thanks for this video. You have the most beautiful skin and such a sweet nature too.

Thanks for keeping Phyllis in our lives God bless you and your family she has to be a southern girl she cooks just like me and my family from Louisiana

I just ran across this. I was a big Miss Phyllis fan and really miss her since she passed away. She was beautiful inside and out! RIP sweet lady, I think of you often.🤗

Love your honesty, it's refreshing, and you have a lovely smile🌺

It is nice to hear your voice after all these years. You are gone, but not forgotten.

You are NOT 70! I thought you must be about my age...61. I quit coloring my hair about four years ago and totally embrace my silvers! I wear light makeup for work but when I retire, that will be gone too. Totally understand what you said about makeup or nail polish feeling heavy. You go lady! Whatever you are doing is exactly right cause you look fabulous

Miss Phyllis had such beautiful skin... she's right about the food and sleep, we definitely need to make sure about all that...and stay hydrated.....

Watching this made me think of Breck cream rinse. I wish they still made it.

You're just naturally beautiful so you don't need much "help" :)

you sure do not need a face lift! age is beauty. and for 70 you look amazing. if i look as good as you do at 70 , i will be far from upset. :)

I just had a flash back to the 70's. Remember "Gee your hair smells terrific", Herbal Essences, Prell, V05,Hot rollers, Home perms from a box. Aqua net hair spray.does anyone remember a product called Sun something. It was a spray and it would lighten your hair. I used it back then, and it would turn my hair orange!! How bout baby oil for sun tanning. Noxzema, Ponds cold cream, Clearasil for zits. Certs. Dentyne, Spray can deodorant,Mr. Bubbles,Leggs panty hose Okay, that's enough. :)

You are such a sweet southern lady. My Mother always used Dove soap and her skin was still beautiful when she passed in 2014. She was 84 years old and also a sweet southern lady.

I still use "PRELL shampoo " I'm 65 yrs ....and still DO .....my hair is pure white ......😊👍💗💗💗💗💗💗it still my favorite, and it's the only shampoo that makes my hair Sqeek......👍

I loved the smell of Prell shampoo!

You are a delight! We agree on so many things and have the same hair issues--thanks for sharing!

You are just so beautiful that’s why people ask your inner beauty shines and wow then when one of those videos come out when you have makeup on you look like a movie star 🌟

You have a very pretty natural glow to you and your hair is beautiful shiny hair, it's lovely.

Your hair looks so soft and shining. Absolutely beautiful!!!!

Phyllis, Loved this video. Smiled at the part where you said your nails felt heavy with polish! You are a naturally beautiful woman and you inspire me to be more comfortable in my own aging skin. I'm about 10 years behind you and just am ready to ditch the hassle of hair dye. I'll keep you posted. Blessings to you and Mr. Bucky, Sis' Maria in NC

Oh Phyllis, God rest your soul ❣️ your hair always reminded me of mine only I wished mine were that beautiful grey. I had brunette like yours years ago too. Missing you & loving these old memories 😊

You have natural beauty, sweet friend! You are going to be ok, so many prayers going up for you as you go through this extremely difficult time. I am rewatching many of your videos’s and realizing again what an incredible lady you are. Mr Bucky was right, you are a natural beauty! Sending love and prayers!💕

I so agree with you! I'm really tired of dying my hair at 66 but my hubby likes my long black hair. Maybe someday I'll throw in the towel and say, "Enough!" You are a beautiful lady and I really enjoy all your videos. We too, are building a tiny house now here in southern AL. We belong to some of the tiny house groups on Facebook and we post pics of our progress as ee go along. God bless you both!

This video literally made me giggle out loud! You are such a real person, I love that! Thanks for sharing your beauty tips.😄👍🏼💕

How refreshing to hear. I like to go all natural myself. Thanks for your honesty.

You are such a beautiful warm person. Thank you for sharing.

Good for you, natural and beautiful. I am in my early 50's and I stopped coloring my hair a few years ago and probably stopped wearing makeup about the same time. I feel good about myself, and that's all that's important :)

Mrs. Phyllis I'm in Cosmetology school right now trying to become a hair dresser. Your hair is absolutely wonderful. You are very beautiful. I think that the fineness of your hair would work to your advantage. Some new curling techniques and even waving solutions now would make you look even more younger! You are fantastic as always. God bless you and Mr. Bucky both.

You are a natural beauty Phyllis! You don't need any makeup. I wish I could do that.

Little lady, you are so genuine!! You’re just lovely 😘

Ms. Phyllis when I do my smoothies in the morning, I take the banana peels or cucumber peels and rub them on my face. I'm 63 and always told how beautiful my skin is. In fact a fella at the gym slipped me his phone number and I was so shocked and embarrassed I didn't know what to way. He is 44. Of course I never called the number but I thought to myself those veggie Peels might be working too good. But just think how pristine the Peels keep the inside of a banana.

Olive Branch I’m sure your skin is fabulous from the peels but younger men think it’s adventurous to go after mature women, they know we aren’t going to respond, I think if we did they would freak. I’m on dating site and I get approached by younger men all the time.

I love your channel! I always watch everything you produce on video.❤️

I have psoriasis and dry skin and dry scalp. I have fine, thin, hair. I shampoo and condition my hair twice a week. I alternate between Pantene, Herbal Essences, Aussie, Dove, Suave, Tresemme, Prell, Pert, Alberto VO5, Head & Shoulders. I take a shower once a week. I use Dove, Caress, Suave, Olay. Pantene, Aussie, Tresemme, Prell, used to be sold and used in salons years ago! Fun fact!

You are so special, I never wore alot of makeup either!! Love you Phyllis!

You have beautiful skin. Thank you for sharing your routine. When I was growing up my grandmother used lemon juice to rinse my hair to make it shinny and stay blonde longer. I like to take my showers at night, I find it relaxes me also.

Wow! I thought you were muh younger, eating healthy, exercising, & good sleep really does pay off. You look'n good! Mrs. Phyllis I can probably count on one hand how many times I've worn fingernail polish. I say the exact same thing about why I don't wear it. It does feel heavy, it feels like you got something on your nails you need to get off. Yeah I've never gotten used to wearing fingernail polish. Growing up one of my dad's mom would polish my nails, the other grandmother would remove it (she was legally blind) because she thought I was too young to wear nail polish at the time. This was about 30+ years ago.

I just found your channel, and I love it so much. You were recommended by Glenda Solly. And I am so happy she did because it’s been wonderful, I am going through all your videos. And I love them. And I love when you talk with your husband, U2 are great. So sorry about your pain. I will be praying for you very very hard. I know that you will be all right. Thank you so much, I feel when I watch your videos, it’s like visiting an old friend.

How i miss you Ms Phyllis....r.i.p.

Good morning Phyliss! Well, I stumbled upon this. Natural is great if you can get by as you do, not to mention Good Genes! Good healthy advise!

Thanks Ms Phyllis!! I'm fine with no fuss too!

You have such a spirit that is so beautiful that shines through your face..... Naturally beautiful..

I am so glad you made this video. I have often wondered what you use.Your skin is just SIMPLY AMAZING.....HAS THAT GLOW THAT WE ALL WANT...SO YOUNG AND HEALTHY LOOKING....EXERCISE......HEALTHY FOOD.....PROPER AMOUNT OF REST AT NIGHT....sO TRUE....BUT....I SEE JESUS IN YOU ABOVE ALL...U REMIND ME SO MUCH OF MY PRECIOUS MOM AND MR. BUCKY REMINDS ME OF MY DAD....AWESOME VIDEO!!!!!!!

You Are style and grace! God bless.

Hi Phylis, I'm a new subscriber and have been watching some of your kitchen videos when I came across this one. Great videos I'm enjoying very much. Yesterday I made your orange rolls, cinnamon rolls and crescents recipe and they were delicious. I put them all into the freezer and my husband has been looking to find them. You are gorgeous! I'm a natural gal too, I'm very lucky to have had a husband who told me he preferred me without makeup and that was 43 years ago when we were teenagers! I call it painting the face. . . men aren't compelled to paint their faces or walk around on high heels - very uncomfortable stuff. And I agree, nail polish and makeup feel heavy on my nails and skin. My mother always told me that "beauty is as beauty does" and you are a wonderful example of that.

philys i just love love love ur home. if i had the money i would buy it and treasure it. i love all ur furniture too. its absolutely beautiful. you are so pretty with or without makeup. im 64 and as i get older i use less and less makeup. im glad mr bucky is ok. i just recently found ur videos on utube so they r all new to me. ty for doing the videos. ....pat lamm

I had learned years ago that SUAVE is one of the BEST shampoos for the hair because it is pH balanced to almost neutral.....Very gentle on the hair and very nice. You are definitely wise.

Wow! I use the same body wash, have for a few years. Leaves my skin so soft and refreshed. Rinses clean, too. Glad you shared it along with your hair and skin care.

Keeping it simple is best. I have a similar routine using very inexpensive products too. The major stores, esp. Wal-Mart & Target have their own brands comparable to the name brands. You look wonderful!!

I just discovered your videos and I am so inspired! You are a beautiful person and your voice is very soothing :) I am 39 and have been living with a "terminal" cancer diagnosis for 7 years. My way to combat the cancer is to live as healthy a lifestyle as I possibly can and I am learning so much from your videos. My tip to you, that I use, when your hair is still wet at night. Instead of having to stay up late, I put a towel over my pillow so the hair dries fast while I sleep and my pillow doesn't get wet. Take Care :)

Hello Phyllis. There's these old sayings that came to mind after watching this post. Love the skin your in and less is more. On saying that, I do wear a bit of lippy and I do add a bit of blush to my pale skin. Just so I don't look too 'day glow white' 😂 My hubby says I glow in the dark. Cheek! I prefer the term, English Rose... Hehe. Anyway, if I look as happy and content as you do, when I'm 70, I'll be very content. X

I'm am only 16 but I think you are so cute!! You make me laugh and your videos are so informative!! Glowing skin and gorgeous hair, inspired when I'm older, absolutely love your videos xxxx

We shared so many similarities, which is what drew me to your videos. Miss you.

Hello Miss Phyllis from Australia, One thing you might like to try is to start combing / brushing your hair from the bottom to the top (combing with a wide tooth comb is better) rather than from the crown of your head down. Start with sectioning it into say two bunches, one either side of your head (just gently do a finger part down the back of your head, it doesn't have to be even. Unsnarling and pulling apart any knots gently with your fingers. With one bunch grab it in your fist and slide your hand down it stopping about an in inch or so from the end. Comb out this bottom inch or so, and then move your fist up and do the next inch or so above that, and so on till you get to the top. Then do the other bunch the same way. Untangle any knots / snarls gently with your fingers. The tangles will come out much easier combing from bottom to top, and you won't break as much hair leaving the little fly away bits. Also brushing it thoroughly before you wash it, while it's dry helps a lot too. I have shown horses, and this is how we are taught to comb out their tails and manes because it takes a long time for their hair to grow so you don't want to break it. This is also why a lot of girls who ride horses have long hair. My hair is very fine and long and I wash and condition it exactly as you do :) I hope I made sense lol Take care bye :)

Thanks, Phyllis You look and are Simply Beautiful x

You have a beautiful complexion and no wrinkles that I can see and I love the color of your hair and my Grandmas's hair was a white like yours she would take the hair stuff from the store that was blue and she kept it at the solon and when she went 1 x a week and get it done and get it to get in an up due and she always got compliments and that stuff she used that was blue kept her hair from turning yellow so I will probably use it to and I am going into my 60s and I don't wear makeup unless I'm going out somewhere. And I used to wear it every day but as I get older I do it less my sister went to school to be a model so she taught me how to do it. And I was told when my Mother let me use makeup I had to go to her friend down the road and she sold Mary Kay so she showed me how to put it on and then my Mom bought me a huge box of anything you would need and back then they were selling it you had to use water and mix it up. Now I use the skincare system I had BAD breakouts as a preteen and even now I get a breakout every once in a while. You look awesome!!!!!

Thank you for kindly sharing your hair and skin routine with us. You look much younger than your stated age.

I'm an "all natural gal" too! I can feel makeup and polish too! So we have a lot in common! I don't like the feel of that stuff! I've always had long hair and all my friends say I'm too old to wear long hair! Well, I'm letting my hair grow out again! It's my hair! I dont' use products on my hair or face either. I'm so glad I found your videos!

Phyllis I wish I could use Suave....I am allergic...I love the smell of it....Now what I have used us VO5 shampoo and White Rain...the 99 cent store or dollar store has it...Your hair always looks so fresh shiny and clean...

Thanks for sharing and taking time for us. You have nice skin ❤️

I think you look great and I like to hear that other folks are doing things simply and frugally. I use coconut oil to exfoliate and I use diatomaceous earth and baking soda and coconut oil for toothpaste. Rarely use any makeup. I have to use Burt’s Bees or goat milk soap. Very little goes a long way. I use the natural stuff because I have allergic reaction to many chemicals. I milk my own goats for their natural immunity so I don’t have to take probiotics and can have their milk for soap and drinking and cooking. I have Crohn’s disease and this works very well and the medicine was too toxic.

We used Prell, long ago, Because it was the only shampoo to be sold In a safe Plastic Tube. All others, was sold In a Glass Bottle . Mom also rinsed out hair with Apple Cider VINEGAR,.. & sometimes just staight squeezed Lemon Juice ! _ & leaving it in, not rinsing !🙂___ .. in the 1960s, to roll our hair, & sleep in the Hair Rollers, we applied plain BEER onto out hair, Leaving it in, it acted as a great SETTING product, & had ... no smell, once dried ! ❤🕊 P.S., Does anyone remember using Dippi-De-Doo, or Rolling their hair up using "Spoolies" ? 😲🤔🙂

My Godmother have me a jar of dippidy doo.That pink jar sat virtually untouched for years, in the medicine cabinet. I'm not sure what we thought it was up until then. Wasn't until much later that we figured out it was just hair gel. 😂 We rarely used it because we didn't know how ( I think we would put tooooooo much in it always weighed our hair down). 😂😂😂 It was me and my sister, you'd think between the two of us, we would realize, but nope. Thanks for the memories.

I think you look great! I've got the same kind of hair, fine and straight. My great aunt had the prettiest hair - natural silver - that she plaited and wore in a bun. She didn't go gray young. I remember her hair being mostly black with silver strands when she was well into her 60s. I didn't get the dark hair, but I just started getting silver strands at 50. I don't think I'll cover it up with dye. I'm hoping that silver will look as lovely on me as it did on my great aunt and on you. :)

You are one smart lovely lady Phyllis !!

my mom and I always used prell and I still do its great, but in my skin I use jergens face cream it had the pink lid, and I use it on my body too its great for skin, and I also use an expencive cream as well, but simple is still the best!

Phyllis..I also went with my silver hair...and I think I'm going to go with letting my hair grow long so that I can wear it up..to me that's a nice look for my age...and less trouble too..all the best to you...I am enjoying your wonderful videos...the recipes remind me of my precious mother and the things she cooked...God bless

God bless you mrs.Phylis and mr. Bucky

I agree on diet as the most important part of skin and hair care. Lately have been eating your lentil soup. Thanks for that

Thank you for sharing your lovely video!

Hi Phyllis, Love your simple routine. I'm working on simplifying mine, I'm a primper and love cosmetics, but I am really working on on only using the things I absolutely love. I protect my skin here in Florida and we do go to the beach quite often. I totally agree with the "big three" you mentioned. I think good genes do make a difference in health and skin too. I haven't taken the gray plunge yet but love yours, thanks for the fun vid.

You seem very cool. I listen to your vids for relaxation. You have such a calming voice.

Thanks Phyllis

My Mother, used Ponds Cold Cream daily, til she was 93. She always removed make up before bedtime. Mamaw did the same, & they had beautiful complexions. We used Luster Cream Shampoo, until Prell was the 1st to come out in a pkastic bottle, not glass. Mother also did the same vinegar rinse on us, growing up in the 50's. Dad had a Rexall Drug Store,& o loved helping myself to The cosmetics. He sold "Evening in Paris"& "My Sin'" perfumes. Do you remember them ?

Love you Phyllis. You’re so wonderful
