Choosing the Right Foundation
Selecting the right foundation often becomes more crucial as your skin matures, requiring a formula that offers hydration and a seamless finish without settling into fine lines.
Look for Hydrating Ingredients in your Foundation
To help slow down these signs of aging, look for anti-aging ingredients in your skincare and makeup products. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid, retinol, vitamin C and rich in emollients are your allies, helping to hydrate, firm, and brighten your skin for a more youthful look.Choose Warm Foundations
When choosing a shade, aim for one that enlivens your skin’s natural tone such as those with yellow undertone to add some glow. Avoid shades that can make you look ashy. You’ll want to test a few shades in natural light to find your perfect match.
Favor Foundation with Buildable Coverage
Coverage options are plentiful, but you’ll likely fare best with a medium-coverage foundation that can be built up or sheared out as needed. This gives you the flexibility to cover age spots or redness without a heavy feel. When it comes to texture selection, think creamy and luminous rather than matte, which can emphasize dryness and lines.
Learn About Foundation Application Techniques
Your application techniques matter too. Use a damp beauty sponge or a foundation brush for an even, non-cakey layer. Don’t forget to blend well along the jawline and down the neck for a natural transition.
Enhancing Features With Color
Having found your ideal foundation, it’s time to revitalize your complexion with the strategic use of color to highlight your best features.
Hide Discolorations
Color correction plays a pivotal role in enhancing natural beauty, especially as the skin matures. Opt for a peach or pink-toned concealer to counteract any blue or gray undertones, instantly brightening dull skin and giving a more youthful appearance.
Say Yes to Eyeshadows!
When it comes to choosing flattering shades for your eyes, cheeks, and lips, remember less is often more. Select hues that complement your current skin tone, rather than what you used to wear.
Warmer tones can enliven the face, but be careful not to go too bold, as this can inadvertently emphasize lines or wrinkles.
Eyeshadows with a slight shimmer can reflect light and open up the eyes, but steer clear of glitter, which can settle into fine lines.
Blush for Youth!
For your cheeks, a cream blush blended well into the apples of your cheeks can mimic a natural flush, minimizing signs of aging by adding a subtle lift.
Contour for Instant Lift
Aging comes with saggy skin so create that illusion of a face lift by incorporating contour into your makeup.
