7 Makeup Tips for Women Over 50 For A Summer Ready Look

Want to have that young summer look for summer?

Summer is here and we all want that fresh summer look to our face without having a ton of makeup on.

1) First, it all starts with having great skin

We are in the era of anti-aging products. But a great moisturizer to keep our skin hydrated, firm and young looking is really the start.

Let me make a suggestion:

Juice Beauty is amazing. I have been using it for a while now and love what I see it doing to my skin. I see a firmer, youthful look to my skin. Here is what I do:

Juice Beauty Antioxidant Serum

I use this to remove my skin of the free radicals up to 87%. this lightweight serum feeds your skin with vitamins and antioxidants from certified organic botanical juices, moisturizes with fatty acid-packed plant oils and smoothes the appearance of fine lines with peptides, alpha lipoic acid and CoQ10. The perfect daily vitamin to use after cleansing and before your moisturizer.

 

STEM CELLULAR Anti-Wrinkle Booster Serum

I love this product my skin just soaks this up. I have seen such improvement to my skin reducing the fine lines and giving my skin that youthful look, and I love the smell of it.

Reduce the appearance of wrinkles with this ultra-light gel serum. Power packed with an optimum dose of our proprietary blend of fruit stem cells infused into a Vitamin C, resveratrol-rich grapeseed formula to help boost and enhance skin tone and texture.

STEM CELLULAR Anti-Wrinkle Moisturizer

Then I end with their Stem Cellular Anti-Wrinkle Moisturizer for a healthy, youthful, moisturized look to my skin. Having a great skin routine not only helps you look more youthful but it helps when you put your foundation on as you don’t want your makeup to get caught up in dry cracks on your face.

2) Pore Filler

Next is Pore Filler. Honestly, I just started using this product and I love it! I see such an incredible difference when I use it. It helps fill in some of my deeper pores for a more even look to my skin. As they claim it does look “air brushed”. Best thing it is developed by plastic surgeons. Here is what I use:

Bye Bye Pores™ Poreless Finish Airbrush Powder

Developed with leading plastic surgeons, IT Cosmetics® creates clinically proven, innovative, problem-solving color cosmetics and skin care products that harness cutting-edge, Anti-Aging technologies.

Bye Bye Pores Optical Blurring Technology™, this anti-aging, skin-perfecting powder utilizes real silk to make your pores disappear from view, and hydrolyzed collagen to smooth away the look of wrinkles.  Plus, the universal translucent shade goes on completely clear and works on all skin tones!

3) CC Cream

I use CC creams and I won’t go back to the original foundation. CC Creams are great for a more mature skin as they cover redness and imperfections, refine the skin texture and can also make enlarged pores look reduced. I love It Cosmetics CC cream because it also comes with SPF 50 to prevent further damage to my skin. It’s so lightweight and not a heavy foundation that people often use to cover up imperfections.

Your Skin But Better™ CC+™ Cream with SPF 50+

CC+ Cream with SPF 50+ is your one step for color-correcting full coverage, anti-aging skincare and SPF 50+ UVA/UVB broad-spectrum physical sunscreen. Developed with plastic surgeons, your best-selling, award-winning beauty miracle delivers clinically tested hydration while diffusing the appearance of skin imperfections for flawless-looking coverage that won’t crease or crack. One tip I might make is to use the foundation brushes, they really help to give an even application to your foundation and fill in those smaller areas.

4) Concealers

Concealers are great to hide pigmentation issues, rosacea and dark circles that often come along with maturer skin.

Again sticking with It Cosmetics, I use their:

Bye Bye Under Eye™

The nice this is they have 12 different shades so there is sure to be one to make your skin tone!

This game-changing concealer improves the appearance of wrinkles and effectively covers the look of skin imperfections including dark circles, bags, redness, hyperpigmentation, broken capillaries, age spots, and discoloration.

5) Loose Powder

I use a “loose” powder just to set my foundation I don’t apply a lot because too much can make wrinkles stand out more. I just go back to my Bye Bye Pores powder to just set my makeup at the end for the complete airbrush look.

6) Give a pop of color

To give my face a pop of color without heavy, “sparkly” blushes. I use a cream-based cheek color. And right now I am loving the RMS Beauty Lip2Cheek brand. I rub a little color to my cheeks just to give me a summer glow, I also can use on my lips as well.

Their lip2cheek is a unique formula that combines hydration and protection with abundant mineral color for a beautiful, natural finish on both lips and cheeks.

7) Let Them See The Sparkle In Your Eyes

As we know our eye shape changes as we get older and we can start getting that “hooded” look to our skin. That’s why it’s important to have a good skin routine.

But stay away from the “bright colored eyeshadows”. Use a natural, light coloured shadow on the eyelid and then apply eyeliner after to make eyes ‘pop’ and look instantly younger. I only line the top part of my eye. I think not only does it take too much time lining the bottom of your eye with an eyeliner but I think it just look too much, and we are striving for a fun, glowy look to our makeup this summer!

Mascara – and then finish with a black mascara, no colored ones. I like the ones that can give my lashes a lift or the butterfly look.

And there you have it. 7 easy tips to have a youthful, glowy look for the summer without all those heavy makeups that people think they need to cover up the imperfections.
