Makeup for Mature skin
Posted on: March 26, 2009
Our face loses its elasticity as we age. Fine lines and eye bags are formed… Yes, it sounds scary but it’s true. I have done makeup for mature ladies especially wedding dinner. Some important tips to take home when you slap on any makeup:
PREP YOUR SKIN with moisturisers. Gel or Creamy face moisturisers are fine. Worse come to worse, use a light oil such as rose hip oil to prep your skin. Give it time to set. Eye area just use light eye gel. We do not want the colour to run.
Must Haves!
1) Light diffusing primer and creamy foundation to create a smooth textured face.
2) Sheer loose powder for that polished look. Too much 2-way cake will enhance the lines!
3) Yellow base, light diffusing concealer for the eye areas. Be light-handed on that. Do not apply too much concealer otherwise it will look too artificial.
My advice to you is to be light-handed. Age gracefully!
Look Younger with style

When age catches on there are plenty of things to consider – about our body as a whole. To revive our glowing skin and learning to conceal the areas that were once tender looking and youthful.
Simple things to do to make yourself look younger and modest:
For the face…
1) Conceal fine lines around the eyes, forehead and lips. A cream one would conceal best.
2) Fill in the eyebrows because they will become lighter with age.
3) A (must!) Eyeliner for the droppy lips. A dark brown liner is a sure win.
4) Lipstick for a fresh look. No frosty colours please.
5) A natural looking blusher to brighten the skin.
1) Wear long sleeves to cover flabby arms. A jacket or a shawl is good.
2) Have a piece of accessory – necklace or scarf as a form of distraction for the wrinkling neck.
3) Do not wear skirts that are shorter than 2 inches above your knees please.
4) Avoid wear spandex. Wear clothings with structure if you are a large size.
5) Wear the right fitting bra to give us the support we need!

Eye shadow – White shimmer, Silver, Pearly Plum (By 7pm the colours would look much lighter but I added an eye base to make it last longer). For droppy lids, sweep shadow up and outwards to lift the ends. A thin black liner and a Berry lipstick. 
This is Auntie Michelle. She was wearing a purple top with a scoop neckline which made her jaw looked wider. The gown with a shorter neckline and high collar flattered her neck and faceshape after which I simply pulled the necklace shorter to balance the space between the chin and neckline. A few pieces of accessories were added to give her the rich tai tai look.
