Make-up tips for mature skin


       Brilliant make-up artist Lisa Eldridge gives her tips for mature skin in the YouTube video, "Glam Grandmas" with helpful product information. I so appreciate her desire to keep the mature model naturally gorgeous!


A beautiful, REAL model's REAL wrinkles. Yes!


 
  On The Today Show, as well, Lisa gave some helpful tips:  
  1. Begin with a tinted moisturizer (I mix my own). "Foundation is more about evening out skin tone, (not obliterating everything)." Layer, using concealer later.
  2. "No harsh edges," with eyeliner in particular--carefully use eyeliner pencil at the roots of the eyelashes. Do not use too dark of a pencil color. 
  3. Repeat: No harsh edges, with blush also, use fingers to blend.
  4. "Creamy and fresh, not glittery."
  5. Dewey with no lip liner.
  6. For brows, use a soft pen that is waterproof.
  7. Cream blush brings life back to the face (for oily skin, use powder).
