A magazine for a life well lived
For women who have earned their good taste and would rather buy one right thing than five nearly-right ones.
Well Lived is a small magazine with strong opinions. We write about gifts, style, home, beauty, wellbeing and travel for women in their forties, fifties and beyond, at a stage of life when you know what you like and have less patience for what you don’t.
Most of what we publish is a recommendation of some kind. We take that seriously. Every product we feature is chosen by our editors, every price is checked against the retailer on the day we publish, and every pick comes with the reason it made the list. If a product is worth having, we say why. If it isn’t, it doesn’t appear.
How we work
We read the reviews, the returns policies and the small print. We look at how a thing is made and whether it will still be in use in five years. We prefer brands that stand behind their products with a real guarantee. And we write for the woman who is buying for herself as readily as for the one buying for someone else.
How we make money
Some of the links on this site are affiliate links, which means the retailer pays us a small commission when you buy. It costs you nothing extra and it never changes what we say. Our full disclosure explains how it works.
