Beautiful makeup for those over 50: simple rules
Pleasant, soft shades in cosmetics are appropriate at any age.
Beauty and youth are desirable for any woman. As the years go by, they may seem almost out of reach. However, it is not. Beautiful appearance is not luck, but the result of everyday care and knowledge of simple makeup secrets that are available to everyone. With changes in appearance, not only skin care products change, but also decorative cosmetics.
What is important to know in order to remain well-groomed and modern?
- Healthy and smooth skin is not just about correction with foundation and powder. The use of anti-aging serums, cleansers, masks, gymnastics and massage help you look great at a festive event and every day.
- Bright, flashy colors are not suitable for makeup after 45. Sometimes they were appropriate in youth, but now natural, natural shades will help emphasize the beauty and dignity of your appearance. Natural does not mean light. Pleasant cherry, terracotta, chocolate, for example, look good at any age.
- Black should also be avoided if possible. It can highlight flaws and add a few unwanted years. You can replace it with dark brown, graphite, dark green, plum.
Important: The eyebrow color at any age should be no more than 2 shades darker than the hair and should never be black, even for brunettes.
- Makeup should never increase after 50. But the time spent on make-up definitely increases. Tons of cosmetics will make wrinkles heavier and will lie unfavorably under drooping eyelids. A thin layer, transparent texture, and skillful, careful application can hide imperfections and give a healthy, radiant look to the face.
- If you don’t understand at all which palette is right for you, go to the salon at least once and see what the master will choose for you. One visit can radically change your approach to everyday makeup and significantly change your appearance for the better.

- in the summer (the product is quickly absorbed and is almost not felt on the face).
You should avoid using foundation fluid if there are the following contraindications:
- allergic reaction;
- age under 18 years;
- dermatitis, psoriasis and other skin diseases;
- acute viral infections, including herpes;
- skin damage, severe irritation, inflammation, scars;
- pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Be sure to test the purchased product to see if you have any individual intolerance to the components. To do this, just apply a little of the composition to your wrist and wait about a day: there should be no redness, irritation or other unpleasant phenomena on the treated skin.
Rules for choosing a product based on skin type
Fluids can be used regardless of skin type, but several recommendations should be taken into account:
- owners of oily and combination dermis should give preference to products with absorbent components;
- those whose skin is prone to dryness and flaking should choose products with the addition of hyaluronic acid, various plant extracts and other moisturizing ingredients;
- For mature dermis, compositions with anti-aging components - tocopherol, algae extract, etc. are suitable.
When choosing a fluid, do not forget that you should not use a light tone on dark-skinned skin. In this case, the applied composition will be noticeable. To highlight the contours of the face, you can apply several shades at the same time.
Brows
In modern makeup, special attention is paid to eyebrows, so it is so important to choose their shape and color correctly. Eyebrows make a woman's look open and expressive.

Blush
Without this makeup product it is impossible to give the skin a healthy look and radiance. It is blush that will return the “sparkle” to a woman.
It is worth highlighting the following nuances:
- Dark-haired women over 45 should highlight their cheekbones with pink shades.
- Blondes are recommended to choose beige and peach colors. However, it is important not to overdo it here - blush applied too brightly makes you look old.
