Make-up Tips for Women 45

As you age, you need to take extra care to nourish your skin for an enhanced look and feeling in your make-up. A great look actually starts with drinking plenty of water, getting restful sleep and maintaining a healthy work/life balance. You also need to remember the muscles of your face in your exercise program. Strengthening them may reduce wrinkles by creating firmer, more youthful skin.

Your skin’s needs will change, and it’s important to check your routine and products every five years or so. With a goal to look and feel great, try these techniques in your make-up routine: Decide what areas you want to highlight (e.g., the eyes); neutralize (e.g., brown spots); and camouflage (e.g., scars, acne). Prepare your skin with foundation (use the same shade as the skin on your chin line), then put translucent powder over the foundation on your forehead, nose and chin (“T-zone”). Use advanced contouring techniques to lighten, shade and create definition.

DEFINE COLORING & FACIAL FEATURES THAT MAY HAVE BECOME MUTED :

LASHES : Use black/brown to brown mascara.

EYEBROWS : Use brown matte eye shadow.

HOODED EYES : Highlight hooded eyelids with crease color. LIPS : Define thinning lip lines with a skintone lip pencil, then add color. OVERALL : Consider changing from powder products to creams—these apply and stay on better to dry skin (e.g., cream blush).
