Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge

As we age, powdered anything seems to accentuate our lines, pores, and just give a general aged appearance.

One thing I have done in the last few years to avoid this is switching my favorite powder products, like eyeshadow and blush to cream formulas.

The only problem with cream formulas is that they tend to fade as the day goes on. Sometimes they even apply so sheerly that you can’t really see any payoff for your application. Continue reading “Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge” →

Smashbox Always Sharp Waterproof Kohl Liner

I love the Smashbox Always Sharp eyeliners! A common problem with middle-aged women is hooded eyes. Because of that, there is simply less space on your eyelid to apply eyeliner.

I have learned over the years (and with the help of some YouTube beauty bloggers) to tightline. Tightlining is lining your eyes on the underside of your eyelashes right at the lash line.

During the summer months, I always like to wear less makeup. It’s hot, so applying any makeup feels like a chore, right? Although I still want to look put together, and I like for my complexion to look healthy.

Over the last several years eyeshadow pallets have been coming out in droves, both at the drugstore and department stores. I have purchased several of them, but to be honest I haven’t been too happy with the results. As we age, our eyelids tend to get crepey, which makes it very difficult to wear powder eyeshadow.

A New Facial Sunscreen Love!

Sunscreen is an item that I place a high value on. Not only does it protect against skin cancer but it also, along with retinol, is a fantastic anti-ager. Sun damage wrecks havoc on our skin causing dark spots, wrinkles, and my personal favorite – sagging skin!

Clinique Naturally Glossy Mascara

Clinique has some great mascaras and at very fair price points. For a long time, I used their Lash Power mascara. It’s a mascara that wraps tiny tubes around your lashes. It ‘s not difficult to remove, but I would say very different than other mascaras. You splash water on your lashes and gently rub the tubes off with your fingertips.

I have been wearing makeup since I was a young woman. The problem was after taking the time to apply it I was never truly happy with the way I looked. I think part of this was due to not using the proper tools and partly the result of using products that were so difficult to work with.

About 15 years ago, I was introduced to mineral makeup by bareMinerals. This discovery changed everything! The application was easy; I felt I had nothing on my face and most importantly the result was that I looked better in makeup than I ever had.

Dorco is a South Korean Beauty Brand. You can purchase them through their US website. Their women’s razors are comparable to US versions like Gillette or Schick but at substantial cost savings. This wouldn’t matter if they sold an inferior product.

There are facial moisturizers out in the marketplace at every price point. How do you choose? Personally, I think the majority of them are incredibly overpriced. CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion is a hidden gem, and available at the drug store.
