For a woman over 40, makeup changes are absolutely necessary. The skin is changing to become more wrinkled, more textured and more spotted.

Even with carefully executed skin-care routines in earlier years, you can’t stop the process of aging skin. Because of the altered state of the skin surface, makeup needs to be rethought.

It’s time to:

Dump the glitter and heavy shimmer shadows. It just settles into your softly forming lines to create deeper appearing grooves! Instead, opt for neutral shadows and a sparkle in your eye.

Replace the matte lipstick — it’s too harsh and often bleeds into the fine lines surrounding your mouth. Instead, wear soft pink or peach lip gloss that offers shine.

Lose the thick, black eyeliner, opting for gray, brown, beige or soft plum liners.

Brush away the powder blush and smooth on the cream blush. The effect is luminous!

Foundation needs rethinking as well. Anything matte is going to age you. Go for light and natural over a good primer!

Keeping makeup natural, soft and luminous is a brilliant way to shed years from your face! Embrace the change and go shopping for some great new beauty products.
