Makeup tips for over 50

This is my mom, she is in her 50's and I had the pleasure of doing her makeup! A few tips to look your best:

1. Keep your skin moisturizered
2. Prime your skin with a primer that fills lines
3.  Use a corrector on any age spots or dark spots. I used Pixi brightening peach
4. Use a lightweight foundation that doesn't settle into lines ( you may have to sample a few to find what works best for you)
5. Set your foundation with a lightweight powder. I used Ben Nye banana powder
6. Use a natural shade of blush that is satin finish. Stay away from frost or too much glitter. 
7. Use a dark brown liner instead of black to keep your eye soft and natural 
8. Try a lip stain/butter, There are so many affordable ones out right now! 

* Don't think you can't wear shimmer when you get older! Just don't go crazy! Remember shimmer will emphasize any wrinkles, so keep it away from your wrinkles!
