10 Makeup Tips For Older Women.



1. It’s All In The Prep. Prepping your face is a must if you want your makeup to look flawless and last all day long. Use a hydrating moisturizer and a primer to go with it. A primer will even out your skin tone and reduce the appearance of large pores, fine lines, and wrinkles.


2. Use A Foundation That’s Lightweight. Using the right foundation or BB cream makes a world of a difference. A lightweight formula will help your base look more natural and radiant. Apply your foundation with a damp Beauty Blender or brush, and blend it in really well to achieve the right amount of coverage.


3. Befriend A Concealer. If you have problem areas like dark circles, age spots, and redness, all you need is a bit of concealer to get them sorted. Remember, always use your concealer after you’ve applied your foundation. That way, you won’t need much coverage. Find a shade that exactly matches your foundation for best results.


4. Add A Flush Of Color To Your Cheeks. A dab of cream blush that will leave you with a subtle hint of color is perfect for older skin. You need to take into account the shape of your face and apply the color at the height of the apples of your cheeks. Blend this upwards along your cheekbones to define and instantly lift your features. You’ll be surprised by how well this trick works to not only add radiance to your face but also to make it look livelier and youthful.


5. Define Your Pout. One of the most notable areas where you develop fine lines is around the mouth. If you want to prevent your lip color from feathering and bleeding into these lines, all you need is dab a small amount of concealer around your lips and use a pencil lip liner to define them. This simple trick will add fullness to your mouth. Choose a color that matches your natural lip color for best results.


6. Choose Lighter Lipstick Colors. It is a good idea to stick to moisturizing lipsticks or glosses that won’t bleed or feather into the lines around your lips. Choose lighter colors because they tend to make your lips look fuller and poutier than darker shades. If you have thin lips, you don’t want to make them look thinner with dark lip color. If you like a pop of vibrant color, don’t be afraid to experiment.


7. Ditch Sparkly Eyeshadows. When it comes to aging skin, the skin on the eyelids can become loose and also descend over them. There are many ways you can combat this concern. Your eyeshadow can play a crucial role in the appearance of your eyes. Steer clear of very dark shades and overly glittery eyeshadows as these tend to recede things. Instead, use lighter colors without a lot of shimmers to bring your eyes forward.


8. Fix Your Brows. As you age, your eyebrows tend to become thin and sparse and also lose their shape. Grooming your brows will help you bring your whole look together. You only need to add some color and brush them up to add definition, texture, and depth to your brows. It’s easier than it sounds!


9. Always Curl Your Lashes. Love your eyelash curler, ladies! Curling your lashes makes you look a lot younger. It’s important to always curl your eyelashes before you apply mascara or else you risk breaking off your lash hairs and ruining your curler with mascara gunk.


10. Highlight Your Cheekbones. Pronounced cheekbones will lift your face and draw attention to your eyes. Make sure you are light-handed while highlighting this area as you don’t want to look overdone during the day. Just a subtle glow looks truly flattering and can be done on a daily basis within a few seconds.
