Here’s how to get a natural makeup look - when over 50

When it comes to natural makeup for women over 50, the goal is to enhance your features while also keeping things light and fresh. Here are some tips to achieve a natural and youthful look:

1.  Start with a clean and moisturized face: Make sure to cleanse and moisturize your face before applying any makeup. This will help to create a smooth base for your makeup and keep your skin hydrated throughout the day.

2.  Use a lightweight foundation: Instead of using a heavy foundation, opt for a lightweight formula that will give you coverage without weighing down your skin. Choose a foundation that matches your skin tone and apply it using a brush or a sponge.

3.  Conceal under-eye circles and dark spots: As we age, dark circles and age spots become more apparent. Use a creamy concealer to cover up these areas, but make sure to blend it well for a natural look.

4.  Define your brows: Well-groomed eyebrows can make a big difference in your overall appearance. Use a brow pencil or powder to fill in any sparse areas and define the shape of your brows.

5.  Apply a neutral eyeshadow: A natural look can be achieved with neutral eyeshadows such as browns, beiges, and soft pinks. Apply a light shade on your lids and a darker shade on the crease to define your eyes.

6.  Use a brown or black mascara: Apply one or two coats of brown or black mascara to your lashes to make them look fuller and longer.

7.  Add a hint of blush: Use a natural-looking blush to add some color to your cheeks. Choose a shade that complements your skin tone and apply it above the apple of the cheeks, working up near the temple.  This gives a lifting effect.

8.  Finish with a lip balm or sheer lipstick: Keep your lips looking youthful by using a lip balm or a sheer lipstick. Avoid dark or bright colors and instead opt for a nude or soft pink shade.

Remember, the key to a natural makeup look is to enhance your features without overpowering them. Keep your makeup light and fresh, and you'll look and feel beautiful at any age.

Stay beautiful, and always wear sunscreen!
