Make up and aging a series of tips and pointer to look great at any age!

I am now 51 and have found the makeup I use and love is needing to get tweaked in application. 

My eyebrows , like some other areas, that were upright and perky are now sagging a bit lol

There are lots of easy ways to adjust your makeup so you can still be that lovely, glamorous You!

I am going to be blogging about each area so we can look at them separately.

Let's start with foundation-

Ok I know I say more is more, but not when it comes to looking younger and foundation. Here, less IS more. Depending on your skin type and personal preference ANY type of foundation is ok.

I find my skin changes with the seasons, stress and hormones. Sometimes I use cream to powder foundation , sometimes mineral. I happen to love mineral foundations for the lovely coverage, light feel and ease of use. There are many on the market. Natural-Radiance.com has great pressed minerals.

 Everyday Minerals.com has really nice loose minerals with several choices of coverage and reasonable prices. I hope to do a review of their products soon!

 1. Make sure your foundation is not too light in color. This will draw attention to lines and wrinkles.

2. Always match the color on your jawline not your wrist.

3. The lightest finishing of powder only so as not to settle in fine lines.

These are just a few ideas to get you started. Remember to build covers, you can always add but it is hard to remove. Blend, blend blend. Have fun! Makeup is magic!
