Makeup tips 40+ (7 most important tips)

Malin sa…
Hi, you can not show or give makeup tips 40+, have heard that shimmery shadows strengthen wrinkles give me tips so yes can shop in the shop, preferably both an everyday and party make up. Sincerely, Malin has found your page: o must say you are super talented. ”

You are right about the shimmer, it highlights irregularities such as wrinkles. But on an eye makeup, I do not necessarily think you have to skip shimmer if you think it's nice. In the corner of the eye and in the innermost part of the eyelid you usually have fewer wrinkles, then you can put your shimmery shadow there and use matte for the rest of the eyes.

makeup tips 40+

Here are my 7 most important makeup tips for 40+ women:

Makeup tips #1. Light eye shadow.
Many women who have reached old age want to avoid very dark eye shadows, because they no longer feel comfortable in it. In addition, it is more difficult to soothe a dark eye shadow nicely if the skin on the eyelid has become a little sagging and maybe even wrinkled.

Use a light shadow on the eyelid, in the corner of the eye, along the lower lash line and under the eyebrow, so you do not need to apply a very dark shadow afterwards for it to provide contrast. You can even leave the globe line completely in its natural color, and with bright colors around it make it look like a discreet shading.

Makeup tips #2. Matte eye shadows
Shimmery eye shadows can highlight fine lines and bumps. So be a little careful with that.

Makeup tips #3. The basic make-up
Using creamy products or powders is a matter of taste, there are pros and cons that depend a bit on the person themselves.

Mineral powder is good because it is very light on the skin, and you do not need to put makeup on the entire face to get a natural result. If you just want to "spruce up" a little, it is good to apply a little mineral powder under the eyes, or where it is needed now. However, if you have very dry skin, it can be more difficult to get a powder to stick, and if you apply too much, it can easily look cakey in the wrinkles.

Creamy or liquid products are good if you are dry, and it can then give a more natural result with more luster. Many people find it more comfortable, they are so used to still lubricating themselves with face creams. However, a liquid foundation can sink into the wrinkles during the day if it becomes too heavy, and then all the irregularities are emphasized more. In addition, it is difficult to get a natural result (I think) if you do not apply to the whole face, and not everyone needs coverage everywhere.

Makeup tips #4. Focus on the upper part of the eye.
It is usually along the lower lash line and at the end of the eye that the wrinkles are most visible, if you also have a little sagging eyelids, it is a good idea to open the eye by not putting anything but light on the lower lash line, and then focus the details on the eyelid itself. . White eyeliner gives an even more open and lively look!

Makeup tips #5. Highlight the globe line.
By putting a little darker shadow in the globe line, and maybe even a little higher up than your real globe line is, you lift the whole eye and open up the gaze.

Makeup tips #6. Avoid sharp edges.
If the skin is a bit sagging and the wrinkles start to look forward, then it is very difficult and in some cases even impossible to get a straight line, for example when applying eyeliner. If you get a straight and sharp line, it may not look straight while moving. Instead, apply a proper lash mark to make the lashes look denser (see the post lash liner) and blur the edges to get a more smoky mark.

Makeup tips #7. Do not shape the eyebrows after the eye.
The outer edge of an eyebrow should not follow the shape of the eye, if you want a more lifting effect. Try to aim more upwards, so that the outer edge is in the same line as the upper edge of the ear

The matte eye shadows that are now available in the webshop are 252 palette where most are carpet (both colorful shadows and down to earth), nudh mineral in the shade Cacao Brown and gloMinerals eyeshadow Sable which is black.

I also recommend Annika's Favorite Shadow in the corner of the eye, which is very shimmery, if you want something to "happen" in the make-up.

Nudh minerals foundation is a mineral powder that gives a comprehensive but natural result, can recommend it as well as theirs concealer covering dark, and or concealer covering red if you have visible blood vessels or blisters.

Nudh minerals rouger and sun powder is a bit shimmery, but not so much that it bothers me. Being fully matt is not always the nicest thing in my opinion either. But there is also two other blushes which is carpet! The highlighter from nudh mineral gives extra luster, you can skip it if you have very fine lines.

When I did a makeup job the other day, most of them were 40+, and they loved nudh minerals lip gloss in the shade Red Bomb, so it ended up that everyone had just the one at the fashion show they were models for! :)

Hope the post with makeup tips 40+ was helpful, lots of info in a short time!

Waterproof, liquid eyeliner

Ann-Christin sa…
"Hi, Would you like to recommend a good eyeliner, have tried some but are never satisfied."

(And after a follow-up question, I found out that she is looking for a liquid that is waterproof)

 

I always use Kryolan's Cake Eyeliner, however, it is not waterproof but still fits very well all day.

The waterproof that I think is the best of the ones I have tested is IsaDora's waterproof Dip Liner. If I paint it on my hand and rub it, it will not be destroyed at all, but fits just as well. When I put on water and rubbed, it also held, but if I also scratched with my nail with water, it came off quite easily.

In other words, it fits very, very well, but is not bulletproof if you say so :)

Then I can not help but mention Esteé Lauder's eyeliner ”Pure Color Liquid Eyeliner Duo”. I have not tested it myself so I personally can not comment, but Helen Torsgården wrote so well about it in this post that you get really eager to buy it at home. "It keeps in the sun, in the gym, in the rain, in the pool - Everywhere!" she writes in the post.

It can be time to test! :)

Throws in an eyeliner tutorial for fun :)

Natural autumn make-up

Dark purple is one of the most popular colors of autumn, and is increasingly visible in stores every year as soon as you enter October.

An easy way to do a purple make-up, without becoming very colorful, is to paint a purple eyeliner and then just supplement with highlighter and mascara.

I have "made" my own eyeliner by mixing false eye shadow with water, super easy!

Light shimmery eye shadow in the corner of the eye and under the brow, Annika's Favorite Shadow.

Lumene Cloudberry Volume Serum Mascara

I want to tell you about a new favorite in my make-up bag, Lumene's autumn news Cloudberry Volume Serum Mascara.

You get really long and separated eyelashes from it, just the way I want it!

The brush (which is made of rubber) is reasonably large and easy to work with. The mascara also lasts all day without crumbling or smudging under the eyes.

In regular use, it also helps to give the lashes a fuller structure, as it contains a serum with Widelash that gives the lashes 40 % more volume in just 15 days (Clinical study, double-blind test. Test group: 30 women in a test of 30 days)

I have not tested it for so long or so regularly that I can express myself about it, but I really love the mascara itself!

This is what the packaging looks like and is available at all stores that sell the Lumene brand, such as Kicks and Åhléns. It costs about 159kr.

The pictures can speak for themselves;)
