Aging Beautifully

December 3, 2014

The greatest gift we receive is the gift to grow old.  As we age, it doesn’t mean that we have to give up on beauty. Aging beautifully and gracefully is what it’s all about.  You can still look great, whether you choose to apply makeup or not.   I definitely (obviously) choose makeup!  Makeup can help us feel our best, so it’s important to know the right way to apply it.  Below are some things that I’ve learned though the years.

Laura Mercier – Tinted Moisturizer Creme

Laura Mercier - Tinted Moisturizer Creme Compact SPF 20

As you get older, you don’t want to use too much makeup as it will not flatter you. One thing not to skip on however, is foundation. It brightens the skin, and makes you look youthful. Find a foundation or powder that works well for you.

Laura Mercier – Tinted Moisturizer Creme Compact SPF 20 – $45.00, 8.00 shipping – Available at Neiman Marcus

Clinique – Blushing Blush Powder Blush

Clinique - Blushing Blush Powder Blush

Using blush is fine but just don’t overdo it. Use an upward sweep for the most flattering look.  If your skin is dry, find a cream blush formula such as the one below.

Clinique – Blushing Blush Powder Blush – $21.00, Free shipping – Available at Neiman Marcus

 

Lancome – ‘Le Lipstique’ LipColoring Stick with Brush

Lancome - 'Le Lipstique' LipColoring Stick with Brush

Use a creamy lip liner to look great. Even if your lips are dry, it will still look good, unlike when you use a dry lip liner. Match it to the color of your lipstick.

Lancome – ‘Le Lipstique’ LipColoring Stick with Brush – $25.00, 9.95 shipping – Available at Boscov’s

Maybelline – York Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer

Maybelline - York Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer

Use concealer, but just a bit of it.This concealer works great and is really affordable.  I also use it to highlight under the eyes and down the front of my nose.

You can find this product at all drugstores.  It’s a great investment!

Maybelline – York Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer, Radiant, 0.05 Fluid Ounce – $5.59, 5.48 shipping – Available at Amazon.com

 

Lancome – Teint Idole Ultra 24H

Lancome - Teint Idole Ultra 24H

Find the best color match for your skin. This is one of my favorite foundations.  It lasts all day without touch ups.

Lancome – Teint Idole Ultra 24H – Lancome – suede c – $45.50, 8.00 shipping – Available at Neiman Marcus

 

Pur Minerals – CC Cream Color Cosmetics

Pur Minerals - CC Cream Color Cosmetics

This is one of my all time favorite products for the skin.  It’s a great multi-tasker since it provides a high spf, moisture, skin correction ingredients and good coverage.  Be sure to find the right color for you.  I wear the medium shade.

Pur Minerals – CC Cream Color Cosmetics (Multi) – $16.99, Free shipping – Available at 6pm.com

 

Make Up For Ever – High Definition Second Skin Cream Blush – # 310 (Rosewood) 2.8g/0.09oz

Make Up For Ever - # 310 (Rosewood)

I LOVE this cream blush!  It’s nice to add a cream blush rather than a powder blush at times for a dewy look.  You don’t want to have too many layers of powder that are susceptible to settling in your fine lines.

Make Up For Ever – High Definition Second Skin Cream Blush – # 310 (Rosewood) 2.8g/0.09oz – $30.00, 4.99 shipping – Available at Amazon.com Marketplace

 

Rothschild – Colleen Rothschild Beauty Restorative Hand Cream, 2.54 Ounce

Rothschild - Colleen Rothschild Beauty Restorative Hand Cream

Our hands are one of the first areas to show our age.  This restorative hand cream is one of the best I’ve ever used.  Keep it on your nightstand and use it in the morning and the evening.

Rothschild – Colleen Rothschild Beauty Restorative Hand Cream, 2.54 Ounce – $28.00, 5.48 shipping – Available at Amazon.com

What are some of your secrets to aging beautifully?  I’s LOVE to hear them!!
