Discover the beauty secrets for makeup that won't accentuate deep lines or wrinkles and seamlessly blend with your natural skin.
The Secret to Dewy, Radiant Skin
This guide is for women in their 50s and beyond who desire dewy, radiant-looking skin. Achieving this look is simple with a few essential products. The key lies in your skincare routine before applying makeup, ensuring your skin has a natural glow that enhances your makeup rather than masking it.
Prepping the Skin
For today's radiant look, we start with our Hydration+ Skin Primer Day Moisturiser, combined with the Anti-Pollution
Day Protect Face Oil. Mix a pump of each and apply it as a moisturiser. This combination imparts a hydrated, dewy finish, making your foundation appear more natural and skin-like.
Foundation for Women Over 50
We’ll demonstrate on Bev, who is in her mid-60s, how to achieve a healthy, radiant look. On one side of her face, we've already started to show the transformative effect of the foundation and other products.
Using a Hydrating Cream Stick Dry Skin Foundation
We begin with a Hydrating Cream Stick Dry Skin Foundation. After applying the skin primer and oil, use the foundation stick on various areas of the face, then buff it in with a Vegan Foundation
Kabuki Brush. We use our medium tan shade to match the décolletage, which often has sun damage. This approach ensures a cohesive look, lifting and enhancing the skin's natural radiance.
Benefits of our Hydrating Cream Stick Dry Skin Foundation
Our Hydrating Cream Stick Dry Skin Foundation is mineral and organic, offering soothing, calming, and hydrating properties ideal for mature skin with fine lines and wrinkles. Enriched with vitamins A and E, it provides antioxidant benefits, combating free radical damage. This foundation not only enhances your appearance but also nourishes your skin. For areas needing extra coverage, simply reapply as needed.
Enhancing Brows and Concealing Imperfections
Next, we enhance the eyebrows by colour-matching to the natural brow hair. Using the fair brow shade in our Pure Mineral Sweat-Proof Brow Dust, we define Bev's brows for an instant eye lift. Our Under-Eye Peachy Sleep Mineral Corrective Concealer is then applied under the eyes to correct dark circles, acting like an eye cream. For puffy eyes, opt for a concealer matching your foundation shade. Applying with a finger helps blend seamlessly, ensuring no fine lines are accentuated.
Adding Blush and Highlighter
Apply our coral radiance Multipurpose Cream Blush starting at the cheekbone’s tip to avoid dragging the face down. This cream blush hydrates the skin, adding a dewy flush. Follow with our Pure Mineral Loose Highlighter in a C shape around the eyes and cheekbones for a subtle sheen that highlights your features without overpowering.
Defining Eyes and Applying Mascara
Define the eyelids using our Precision Angled Vegan Liner Brush and Pure Mineral Sweat-Proof Brow Dust or Mineral Eye Shadow, focusing on the outer corners to make the eyes appear larger. Apply the same colour on the outer lower lash line, stopping at the iris. This technique lifts the eyes, creating an open, youthful look. Finish with our Brown Your Choice Reusable Wand
Water Resistant Mascara, concentrating on the outer lashes for a natural effect. Brown mascara is more forgiving and natural-looking, especially for fairer skin.
Finishing Touches
Complete the look with your favourite Mineral Lipstick or Vitamin E Natural Lip Gloss. For extra hydration and a natural finish, spray our Hydrating Pure Rosewater Refillable Face Mist over your face. This makeup routine, achievable in less than 5 minutes, leaves your skin looking healthy and radiant, ready to face the day with confidence.
