Our Evening with Cindy Crawford and Meaningful Beauty Review & Giveaway
We are all fascinated with agelessness, in a way. We live in a world where the promise of youth is so flush and rampant, it’s almost expected; in the same vein that wealth, virtual fame and love are.
We never entered any Faustian bargain (otherwise, we would have have ended up with flawless skin, but with one heck of a conscience), but we think that supermodel Cindy Crawford must have some tryst with the flawless skin fairy godmother. When I met her last week, my jaw almost hit the floor: here is a model who’s in her mid forties and a mother of two with skin that would make a baby go, aw well gee shucks!
During the lovely and fortunate time a few blogger buddies and I got to spend with Cindy, she talked about new line, Meaningful Beauty, which will hit select Sephora and JC Penney stores in October 2010. After listening to her skincare routine, it was evident at how vigilant she is about her skincare, exercise and nutrition routine: she is fanatical about hydration, and gets facials every 4-5 weeks (pore perfectionists, take note). She does do microdermabrasion, although she’s careful to say that not “all microdermabration specialists are created equal,” so be careful to whom you entrust your pretty face.
She’s also not a smoker, and she does admit that she has had Botox (in this day and age, who hasn’t?).
Cindy and I (doesn’t she look FABULOUS?!)
From the Meaningful Beauty line, she loves the Protect Antioxidant Day Cream, which is a micro-emulsion moisturizer that protects against UVA and UVB rays, as well as the “instant pick-me-up” Glowing Serum. The complete line includes:
- Skin Softening Cleanser ($37), that’s creamy, non-foaming and perfect to swipe off impurities;
- Antioxidant Day Cream ($47) that protects the face from the effects of UVA and UVB rays;
- Anti-Aging Night Cream ($60) that has powerful antioxidants including vitamin C, vitamin A, collagen boosters and peptides to improve complexion overnight;
- Lifting Eye Creme ($56) that helps smoothes fine lines and diminish dark circles using soothing botanicals;
- Firming Chest and Neck Creme ($57) that is designed to specifcally address, firm and moisturize the neck and chest area.
The other goodies in the kitty include a Deep Cleansing Masque ($43, also called “a facial in a bottle”), Glowing Serum ($52), Line Diffuser Wrinkle Smoothing Capsules ($52), Extreme Moisture Masque ($52) and Scrub exfoliant ($31.95).
To purchase, visit MeaningfulBeauty.com or call 800-927-0047. Select products will hit the Sephora Inside JC Penney stores on October 4th.

Oh my god yes! I have been DYING to try Meaningful Beauty. OH yes! I see that on TV and I tell myself I am going to order this but never got guts to. Oh, I am soooo meaningful to get this!!
I am a fan of Beauty Stat on Facebook. I subscribed Beauty Stat and Meaningful Beauty via Email and RSS.
I would love to try this. I live on a limited budget so trying it before I buy it would be a godsend. I can’t afford to try something only to have it not work for me. I am loyal to products that work and will spend if I know it is true to what is advertised.
She is gorgeous, still! Yes, I’d LOVE to try Meaningful Beauty! PLease, please pick me!
Dark circles! Though they’re hereditary and I’ve had them all my life, they seem to be getting worse as I get older… Lame.
Love, love, love…all your wonderful advice, amazing people and specialist in beauty…and all the positive vibes all the time. Along that vein, you will make me very happy and very positive if I can win and try Cindy’s line!! XOXOX
My biggest problem is that I was a smoker for 10 yrs and watched nose to mouth lines start to form and wrinkles under my eyes and no matter what I tried nothing has worked. I am a 33 year old mother of 3 and it makes me look older and makes me feel insecure. I’ve recently quit smoking 8 months ago and I just want to restore the vitality to my skin that I once had.
I would LOVE to try her products. Have seen them on infomercials, QVC and websites. Thanks for bringing all this wonderful info!
My battle is finding a line that actually works! My skin is dull. I have fine lines by my eyes & dark circles…a few wrinkles too.
My most beauty problem is the wrinkles around my eyes and lips. They are bad…Is’nt she beautiful, keep up the smile….
she looks great.
my biggest challenge as i age is hydration and hyperpigmentation.
I would love to be a Meaningful Beauty! And what better way to have beautiful skin then to use Cindy’s skincare!
I would love to win the chance to try these unique products! I will be turning 37 next month and am starting to experience some signs of aging:( Im noticing a little sagging in the neck area and some fine lines around my mouth and eyes. Its not fun watching your body age but with the right products it can be a little easier. Thank you for considering me:) -Heidi
You are both gorgeous!!
My biggest challenge is dryness. I get dry skin often and that makes the lines around my eyes more noticeable. All in all I try to take good care of my skin. I drink tons of water, take fish oil, exercise regularly and read wonderful blogs like this one that give amazing tips and inspiration!!!
My biggest battle is no radiance or glow to my skin with in the last year or so. I also am battling acne issues due to a hormone imbalance and I have so worried about wrinkles down the road so it would be nice to try some new products geared towards aging skin
my skin problem from 30′s on through now is that it’s too stretchy,like over chewed gum while sipping hot coffee.Now as I’m approaching 50,my face is starting to sag a bit.This causes creasing and shadows from the bottom corners of my nose to the corners of my mouth.My other problem area (like many women) are deep set creases between my eye brows,permanent frown marks.Finally,it seems as though I woke up one day with a tired look under my eyes that never went away.I dont know what or how to use products to brighten and conceal these areas.Or if any product can correct them.I’ve had some very good but (temporary) results with NV Perricone,Wei East,and Dr.Brandt.
My biggest battle with aging is my acne scars and wrinkles so I would like to try meaningful beauty.
My biggest battle with my skin is making sure it stays moisturized and trying to avoid wrinkles. As I get older my skin seems to have less and less elasticity. As vain as it sounds I definitely want to look as youthful and as good as I can until it’s no longer an option. Thank you for the opportunity!
I would love to win! My biggest battle with aging is my sagging eyes from lack of sleep. I wish I could find the perfect solution. I met Cindy years ago and she looks like she is more beautiful now and her products must really be working!

It’s hard to choose which skin issue is the worst with me. The wrinkles around my eyes are starting to appear, and I am starting to have pore issues. My pores have never been large, but all of a sudden they seem more noticeable when I wear makeup. I also battle dry skin occasionally, but wouldn’t consider it my biggest problem.
I tried Cindy’s line before and I have to say I wasn’t at all impressed. Oh well.
Have wanted to try this product for quite some time. Cindy is so beautiful and has such beautiful skin. When you see pictures of her she just about looks the same as she did years ago. Has sold me on the product. Will have to check it out at sephora or would love to win.
My biggest aging concern is small wrinkles near the eyes … Aka crows feet! How ugly is that!?! Plus it even has an ugly name! Please help … Thanks guys! Awesome giveaway
I think my biggest problem with aging is the whole process I’m very skeptical about any “anti aging” cream or formulas because for the better part of my life I watched my grandma try all kinds and was never satisified with the results . She spent a lot of time and money looking for that miracle cream….and now that I know what I do about makeup ,skin care and hair I think if only I knew all this well she was here, I could of helped her so much. So for her I continue the search and continue down this road I’m on.
Thanks – Niki-
HMMM IT WOULDNT HURT TO TRY THIS. I WISH I COULD LOOK AS GOOD AS SHE DOES. WOW!!!!! IVE HEARD ABOUT THIS BUT NEVER TRIED IT. IT SEEMS TO WORK.
I am in that age catergory now that I need help! I want to stay young but grow older gracefully. She looks beautiful…and I hope to win the products to be able to try what she uses…if it can help a bit….I’m sold! I’m a Beauty Stat fan!
and work in the beauty industry…gotta look good!
I would have to say my neck or the decolletage area. I heard when I was younger, how the neck and chest area always gives away age. I never thought so until now. Those sunburns are coming back to haunt me, and making my chest/neck area appear older with some sun damage. I never, ever go outside my house w/out sunscreen, and have recently started spreading it to the lower neck/chest area. I am super selective with the products I use, but have been wanting to try the Meaningful Beauty line. Since being laid off, I don’t have the money to try new product’s, only for them not to work. What a great way to try the Meaningful Beauty line. Thank you.
my biggest cercern is my forehead my lines are deep, ive tried everything out there i have seen her infromercials and she looks great.i would love to win a set of her products i beleive they will help me with my skin, my family has had a very rough few yrs we have had a sexual attack our son had cancer,things have been bad for my family for a long while and it has taken it tole over my face, i had to be strong for every one else and i forgot how to take care of my selfand of course i cant afford to buy myself anything we have to use every penny just to keep the house and insurance so we could have the coverage we needed for my son treatment and my daugther couslening and she is haveing a really bad time she is going down the wrong path so i have to worry about that as well as everthing else.i really do need cindy skin care line so i can feel like my self again i feel that her products work she is so beautiful and im hoping that i get the chance to try them so i can feel better about myself. thank you so much for the chance to win the skin care . thank you thank you thank you
My problem is nose to mouth lines and wrinkles under my eyes. I was a smoker for 10 years and have just quit 8 months ago and it has done a job on my skin. I am a 33 yr old mother of 3 and I look and feel so much older, i would just like for my skin to be revitalized and rejuvenated again.
Cindy looks amazing! I just recently saw the meaningful beauty infomercial and loved what I saw. I grew up in California and spent much of my life in the sun and didn’t learn about sunscreen until much later so my biggest problem is brown areas on my face… sort of freckle clusters that are accentuated every summer now, despite loads of sunscreen! All this talk of hydration and rejuvenation makes my skin thirsty!
my biggest battle is hyperpigmentation. When I was younger I always had a tan and now I am paying for it!
I hope to try the new products……smiles…. good Luck….smiles.
All my older relatives tend to sag even more than wrinkle. I’d love to keep my skin as firm as I can. That’s not a pretty look
Thanks!
[...] so about the title…is Cindy Crawford human:) I read an article yesterday on Beautystat.com and the writer of the blog got to meet Cindy, (i’ll say “Cindy”, like I know her [...]
i tried the meaningful beauty when there was an infomercial for it i loved it but im a single mother just turned 36 and unfortunately i couldn’t afford to keep up the routine…im an nut about health and skincare i just can’t afford it…..Cindy is amazing i can only hope to look as good as her in my forties
My biggest battle seems to be the persistent dark circles under my eyes.
My biggest battle with my skin is patchy blotch of dry skin. The other battle is having it look as healthy and radiant. It seems as if my skin changed since giving birth to my two children.
Sunspots!
Marionette lines, forehead lines and age spots!
Jaw line not as firm. Sun/age/brown spots. Starting to get a few lines on my neck that I DO NOT like at all!
deepening lines from nose to mouth…and fine lines around my lips.
I think my biggest problem is skin tone. I feel like my skin is dull and not very smooth. It would be great to have a routine that fits into my crazy schedule and actually works!
Thank you for a wonderful giveaway.
my biggest problem is the lines around my eyes-too much time out in the sun. I would love to try these products
My biggest aging problem is looking in the mirror! XXOO
Oh, my biggest battle is definitely eating right. It seemed like I could eat anything when I was in my 20′s. Not anymore, though! I know eating sugar ages us, but it’s so hard to eat right when I’m so busy all the time.
My biggest skincare concern is keeping my adult acne under control and keeping my skin hydrated! It’s a constant battle.
my toughest aging dilemma is under-eye puffiness… can’t seem to find anything that works very well…. I would love to try Cindy’s line… and btw…. my husband dated her in high school…. hehe
My 3 biggest problems are my porest some wrinkles on my forehead and some small brown spots. I would love to try this skin care line. Cindy looks awesome!!

My biggest problem is with loss of firmness of my skin and puffiness around the eyes.

Wow she is gorgeous! And Cindy isn’t too bad either! :O)
My aging issues are LINES! “Parentheses” around my mouth and twin verticles between the eybrows. Nothing seems to help…
I love the products and would love to win some.. Have our own biz and it’s tough right now everyone is changing their spending habits… I’m 36 and mother of three, soon to be 37 on October 13th.. And would love to treat myself to more products..thanks to Cindy for sharing products and very excited to hear they will be available at JC Penny’s.
My biggest challenge? I think are the fine lines on my forehead and around my eyes! Well I am also worried about saggy skin! I can’t wait to try the line! She looks amazing. If I can get a little bit of her glow I will already be happy!
For me, its dark circles under my eyes and lackluster skin that’s losing its elasticity! I’m 47 now and my skin is beginning to show my age.
I’d love to try Cindy’s products!

The wrinkles on my forehead are getting deeper every day. I can’t stand the way it looks!
I am dying to try Meaningful Beauty! My biggest aging concern is fine lines and dark circles. Thanks for hosting this contest!
As I’m approaching the big 40, I’ve started to notice more fine lines around my eyes, (curse those teenage years spent baking in the sun covered in baby oil, haha!) the circles under my eyes seem to be getting a little darker and I don’t have that vibrancy & brightness to my skin that I used too.
I would love to try a line that really works. I would like my skin to have the vibrancy and glow it did years ago. Pleae choose me to win!
I have tried her line a few years ago. But i would be so excited to try all the new products she has since added…I did like the line, but am DYING To try the new stuff. My biggest concerns are undereye lines, crepiness on the chest, and lines by my jaw. I am 38 and always looking to try good stuff. And i do believe that Cindy Crawford has it!!
Please please let me try her revamped line!!
