Be a timeless beauty with these makeup artist tips. Remember less is more. Overall, whether you’re applying foundation or color, start light and build to the coverage or intensity you desire. Heavy product application can settle into fine lines and wrinkles and actually accentuate the look of mature skin.
Prep and prime. Mature skin tends to be drier, so always start by moisturizing a clean face. Then apply a foundation primer, like Mary Kay® Foundation Primer Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 15,* to create a perfect canvas for makeup application.
Brush up on perfection. Apply foundation with a foundation brush starting in center of face, and use a downward motion to create a seamless finish.
Focus on one feature. When applying color, stick to the general rule that you play up one feature at a time. Bold lips need balance with less dramatic eyes. An eye-focused look needs to be balanced with neutral lips.
Create luscious lips. Try lip color like Mary Kay® Creme Lipstick or Mary Kay® NouriShine Plus® Lip Gloss. Gloss, worn alone or over lipstick, also can help lips appear fuller.

wedding shower sentiments Playing hostess at prewedding parties? Use these ideas to create new traditions, and add a layer of sentiment to your celebrations.

Ribbons from shower gifts make a great memento. Use them to craft a ribbon bouquet for the bride to carry at her upcoming wedding rehearsal.
Share memories of past wedding moments. Pass around vintage photographs from the mother of the bride’s own shower and wedding.
Something old, something new. Give feet time to adjust to new shoes before you dance all night. Then help revive tired feet and legs with a refreshing cool mint formula the morning after.
