As we age, our bodies, minds, spirits, boobs and makeup evolve....its inevitable!!! What doesn't head south........disappears, example being your jawline, your nice tight eye lid's or your once beautiful pouty voluptuous smackers!!! But have no fear beauties, I'm going to give you some tips on age appropriate makeup and essentials!!
Well, beings that I am in this wonderfully wisdom imparting decade, I can attest to the fact that you are probably in the midst of crow's feet, newbie signs of sun damage, loss of firmness(in area's other than the face!)and your skin just doesn't look as radiant.........good Lord, I need a bridge to jump off of!!
Here are some tips to help in these areas:
1) Use a PRIMER! This will help fill in those fine lines and the appearance of large pores.
2) CONCEALER! Not everyone needs it, but if you do, try to choose one that is somewhat emollient, due to the fact that our skin tends to become drier because we lose estrogen...nice.
3) BROWS! They tend to start becoming a little more sparse, so you may want to start "filling in" those etched out areas. Benefit Cosmetics offers a handy little diddy "Brow Zing"
4)SHEER eyeshadow! Lighter colored shadows(creams, pale pinks and camels)will aid in the "brightening"of your eyes, and always go for either Matte or a formula with very subtle shimmer.
5) LASHES/LINER! Our lashes are starting to thin(GREAT!)so to make them look fuller and thicker, opt to have your eye liner in the same shade as your mascara, then line your upper eyelids thisclose to your lashes. The goal is to make lashes look extra thick at the roots!
6)CHEEKS! Opt for some color! My go to's are peaches and pinks, they seem to perk up dull skin, and if applied to the top of the cheek bone it will give a lifting effect!! Woo-Hoo
7)LIPS! As IF it isn't bad enough, we are losing pigment in our hair, skin and lips! So brighten up those pretty puckers with some vivid lip color, make it a creamy sheer formula like a tinted lip balm with an extra dose of pigment!!
So there you have it ladies, my guide to this 40 extravaganza we call "You've GOT to be kidding me!!!"
