Mature skin vs Youthful skin: Making Magic at Every Age
Let's talk about something exciting - how to make your makeup work beautifully for you, no matter where you are in your beauty journey! Whether you're embracing your mature glow or enhancing your youthful radiance, I'm about to share some game-changing techniques that will transform how you use our new makeup bundles.
The Art of Mature Makeup:
Let's start with a little secret that makes all the difference: lighting up those gorgeous eyes! For mature skin, think of your eyes as the star of the show. Here's why: brightening the eye area instantly creates a more awake, vibrant look that takes years off your appearance.
Your Step-by-Step Eye Magic - makes them pop, naturally!
Picture this: a light eyeshadow sweeping across your entire lid like a gentle morning glow, followed by a medium shade tucked into your crease for that perfect definition. It's like giving your eyes a beautiful frame that makes them pop!
The Highlighter Trick You Need
Here's a pro move that'll change your game: there are three areas to apply it. Place highlighter along your waterline, the outer corner of your eyes (and blend to the sweet spot near your temple) and your mid brow bone to the end of the brow for a beautifully lifted look.
Blush: The Upper Cheek Strategy
Now, here's where we get clever with blush! Think of painting downward strokes from near your ear toward your nose, stopping right at the apple of your cheek. Use the body/side of your brush (not the head/top of the brush - trust me on this one!) for the most natural, buildable, long-lasting flush. It's like giving your face a gentle lift without any effort!
The Powder Perfect Method
The powder pro secret for softening any lines: use your powder brush like you're painting delicate strokes from the inside of your face outward. Start at your forehead and make your way down to your chin, using the body of the brush for the softest touch. This technique is pure magic for creating a long-lasting, flawless, natural finish while softening any lines.
Lush Lip Game
For a soft, natural lips apply 4 small dots on your lips & softly blend them with your finger for little bit more. Apply Lip Stain only on top lips, blend with bottom lips & line them. For those that want their lips to appear bigger, frame your lips by following the top outline of your lip stain with a light eyeshadow (light beige or white) and blend to perfection.
Embracing Your Natural Youth:
For our younger beauties, we're flipping the script a bit! Let's talk about how to enhance that natural radiance you're blessed with.
Eye Enhancement
Switch things up by laying down a dark color inside the waterline to make your eye pop for a more mysteriously dramatic look. You can also use a medium to dark eyeshadow as an eyeliner to create a cat eye — rawr!
Blush or Bronzer - You pick!
Use a medium to dark color Blush or Bronzer from near your ear toward your nose all the way to the apple & then apply light bronzer on the apple. A quick secret: our face powders are amazing bronzers as well.
Strategic Highlighting
A touch of highlighter in your tear duct area and that outer corner near your temple? Pure magic! It's like catching little bits of sunlight on your face.
Pucker Up
Apply Lip Stain over your lips by using the flat side of the wand. Then, use the head of the lip stain wand to apply as a lip liner. Follow & frame your natural lip line. Allow the Lip Stain to dry (we recommend waiting a minute more or less). Repeat those steps again to build up the Lip Stain color/pigment & long lasting results.
Remember...
