When applying daytime youthful makeup for women 40+, it is recommended to treat facial skin in the following order:

  1. We mask rosacea and pigmentation with concealer;
  2. under the eyes - corrector;
  3. for the T-zone - CC cream;
  4. on the cheekbones - peach blush;
  5. fix the result with powder.

Concealer

  1. Apply a thin layer of foundation to your face and carefully blend it over your face and chin.
  2. Choose creams that are lighter rather than darker tones. A dark foundation can highlight even the smallest wrinkles. A light tone, on the contrary, will make your face look fresher and, if it doesn’t hide it, will definitely reduce wrinkles around the eyes.
  3. The foundation must contain moisturizers, vitamins A, E and C, and peptides.
  4. Apply foundation not along folds and wrinkles, but across them. This way you will avoid creating a mask effect on your face.
  5. If you want to hide dark circles under your eyes with foundation, apply it to this area not very thickly and not very heavily - this will only highlight fine wrinkles.

  1. Choose loose powder - it should be combined with foundation and at the same time smooth out all the unevenness of the skin.
  2. Use powder of the same tone as the cream, maybe a little lighter, but not darker.
  3. Don't be afraid to apply powder liberally to your face—loose powder won't clog pores or highlight wrinkles.

Eye makeup

The eyes and eyebrow line should be given special attention.

It is recommended to visually raise the corners of the eyes. In everyday situations, arrows clearly drawn with a gray or brown pencil are sufficient.

Creating makeup is a whole science, a special art that takes quite a lot of time. In addition, with properly done makeup, natural beauty can only be improved. How to properly apply makeup after 40 that makes you look younger?



molodyashij-makiyazh-posle-40-uItUXJ.webp

All cosmetics must be selected taking into account your age, type of appearance, eye and hair color. With age, the elasticity of the skin is lost, it becomes dull, and noticeable wrinkles appear. This also needs to be taken into account when doing makeup. After all, you won’t be able to keep your skin young all the time, no matter how expensive or good cosmetics you use; this process can only be delayed a little and made less noticeable.

At any age, a woman wants to remain attractive and well-groomed, so you should know some of the nuances of applying makeup, and women over 40 are no exception. As you age, it is also worth spending more time on self-care.



molodyashij-makiyazh-posle-40-yiIVPqM.webp

Makeup artists recommend that all women, without exception, over 40 years old have the following cosmetics:

  1. BB cream is a universal product; it can be used as a foundation, as a primer or as a day cream. The texture is very light, applies softly, but at the same time hides fine wrinkles and spider veins.
  2. Corrector with lifting effect. It helps not only hide imperfections, but also tightens the skin.
  3. Eye cream. After the age of 40, the skin needs constant hydration, and in this way you can hide small wrinkles.
  4. Makeup base. With its help, the skin will become smooth, and subsequent cosmetic products will adhere better.

And it is equally important to do makeup correctly, because with its help you can look stylish, beautiful and a little younger than you really are. In any case, it is worth observing moderation and selecting exactly those products that are suitable in composition and color scheme.



molodyashij-makiyazh-posle-40-VoQTVm.webp

The step-by-step technique for doing makeup after 40 years is as follows:

  1. Next, you should use a primer to hide skin imperfections. In this case, it is worth using the color palette of correctors. Green color hides redness of the skin, but orange disguises dark circles under the eyes.
  2. Also, what type of cream to use depends on the time of year. In the summer, you can use a cream with a fairly light texture, but in the winter, you need to use nourishing creams. It is best if the creams have a lifting effect. Before continuing the makeup procedure, you must wait until the cream is absorbed. Excess can be removed with a dry cloth.
  3. Thorough moisturizing of the facial skin, as at the age of 40+ small signs of skin aging begin to appear. A day cream that matches your skin type and UV should be 30+ is perfect for this. Before applying evening makeup, it is better to use a cream with a thicker texture.
  4. Apply a thin layer of foundation to your face.

  1. The next step involves drawing in the eyebrows. To do this, we comb the eyebrows with a special brush, then take a soft pencil and draw the outline of the eyebrows; it should not be too long and wide. Then, using shadows, lightly fill in the eyebrows inside the contour. For blondes, it is better to use a taupe pencil shade, while for brunettes, brown-black is perfect. Accordingly, select the same shadows to fill the contour. In addition, it is worth making a slight bend in the eyebrows, which will help visually lift the upper eyelid.
  2. Now the eye makeup itself. The color palette can be different, it depends on the external data and the purpose of the makeup - everyday or festive. Let's look at the example of brown eyes.

For brown eyes, all shades of brown are suitable. Which shade is preferable depends on the iris of the eye. Apply a darker color of the selected shadows to the moving eyelid, and a slightly lighter color to the lower one. The boundaries between different shades of shadows are carefully shaded. If the eye is dark in color, then you should use bronze, brown or green shadows with the same eyeliner. Lightly draw on the eyelashes with mascara; just blink a few times. You should not apply mascara to your lower eyelashes. This completes the eye makeup. In the photo you can see the result of applying makeup for brown eyes.

  1. Now it’s time to do your lip makeup. First, select the shade of lipstick. Depending on the type of makeup - everyday or festive - we use lip gloss or long-lasting lipstick.
  2. The final steps will be applying a thin layer of powder and blush. It is better to use loose powder, also matching the composition to your skin type. Blush is applied to the protruding parts of the cheeks; for this you need to smile slightly. It is better to use beige or peach color.

Benefits and Features

To choose the right cosmetics, you need to know the features of makeup after the age of 40. First of all, all products must be of high quality and hypoallergenic, since the skin no longer recovers as quickly as it did at 20 years old. Makeup after 40, which makes you look younger, is based on the following rules:

  1. A lighter foundation will help restore the fresh and radiant appearance lost with age to your skin. The cream should be lighter than the usual product, as a rule, by 1 tone. The light texture will help distribute it more evenly. The cream must have a water base and a high SPF factor. Another trick is to use a reflective foundation to compensate for the lost natural radiance of the skin. It is advisable to use a greenish-colored corrective product underneath, which will help hide dilated blood vessels.
  2. Blush should be chosen in a delicate natural shade: beige, light pink, but not bronze. It is better to choose creamy blush, thanks to which the skin will receive additional moisture.
