Gwyneth Paltrow covers this week\u2019s issue of People Magazine. She\u2019s promoting multiple things, mainly the 15th anniversary of Goop and Goop\u2019s new Target\/Amazon beauty line, Good Clean Goop. This is like the third thing I\u2019ve read or watched from Gwyneth as she looks down her nose at the peasants who want affordable beauty and skincare products. Every single time, she mentions the fact that she would have loved to put more ingredients – better<\/em> ingredients – into the product line but they had to keep the costs down, so you\u2019ll take what you can get and you\u2019re welcome, peasants. That\u2019s what she talks about in the People Mag cover story video, but in the print edition, she\u2019s talking a lot about her 50s and being on the verge of having an empty nest.<\/p>\n

Her 50s:<\/strong> \u201cI had the erroneous idea that I would be able to downshift a little bit. But life is very full-on. It’s been very intense.\u201d<\/p>\n

The good.clean.goop product line:<\/strong> “We felt passionate about creating clean, efficacious products at a more accessible price for a broader audience. They call it ‘masstige’ in the industry. I love that word, between \u2018mass\u2019 and \u2018prestige.\u2019 So we set out to create this, and it\u2019s been so much fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

Her marriage to Brad Falchuk:<\/strong> She’s cherishing the quieter moments at the “Faltrow\u201d residence, as she calls it. Nights are filled with cooking family dinners while listening to French pop music (her current favorite genre) and watching European murder-mystery shows. But Paltrow admits blending a family, especially one with four teenagers, is no easy task. \u201cIt\u2019s hard, and it\u2019s not intuitive, and nobody tells you how to do it. You just stick with it. Now it\u2019s one of the things that brings me the most happiness in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moses is in his senior year of high school & Apple is already in college:<\/strong> Gwyneth says she prefers the term \u201cfree birds\u201d to empty-nesters. \u201cI\u2019m trying to reframe it so that I can at least try to convince myself there\u2019s some kind of a silver lining. Empty nest sounds so sad and lonely.\u201d<\/p>\n

New chapters:<\/strong> \u201cI believe that life, especially for women, comes in chapters. This is really going to be a new chapter for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

[From People]<\/p>\n

Back in the \u201890s, if you told me that Gwyneth would practically give up acting in her 30s to focus on wellness, beauty lines and clothing lines, I would not have believed you. We would have called her a sellout too, but it\u2019s interesting to think back on how \u201cselling out\u201d was a mortal sin back then, and now everyone\u2019s like, yay, sell out and make that money. As for \u201cfree birds\u201d rather than empty nesters\u2026 say what you will about Gwyneth (she\u2019s an elitist a–hole pushing pseudoscience on gullible rich women) but her kids turned out okay. I keep getting the impression that Gwyneth\u2019s stepkids kind of hate her though. LOL.<\/p>\n
