Makeup Tips For Older Women To Bring Back The Twinkle Of Their Eyes

Wouldn’t it be absolutely fantastic if we could taste the elixir of sublime beauty and youth? But chances are high that you haven’t come across such a magic potion in which case wrinkles and grey hair are bound to usher in as a signal of your natural ageing process. Women often make the mistake of trying to look younger by applying heaps of cakey makeup which in reality gives away their actual age even more easily. Thus, you should enhance your best features gracefully by offering subtle highlights to your face.

Applying eye makeup can prove to be exceptionally tricky when you are already dealing with crows’ feet and fine lines. You can cater to your beauty requirements by adhering to our expert recommended tips which can boost up your radiance and impart a natural glow in no time:

• Makeup for older women should be subtle as less is more when it comes to application of cosmetics with increasing age. Heavily pigmented eyeshadows and thick black eyeliner can now add years to your look by making your crow’s feet and hooded lid all the more pronounced. 
• Sweep natural hues of eyeshadow across your eyes for daytime events and go for a shade darker during night time events for adding a dash of glamour without crossing over the thin line of elegance. Blending more than two colours on your eyelids is now a complete no-no and the eyeshadow should be kept off your brow bone.
• Application of primer can prove out to be life changing when it comes to flawless application of makeup. Primer can be applied on your lids and lashes to keep your eye makeup in place.
• Go for soft smudged shades of brown eyeliner if you have light complexion. You can even go ahead with a liquid eyeliner as long as you have a steady hand which can reproduce a thin line on the upper lid. The lower lid can be skipped entirely. However right application of eye makeup for older women on the lower lid can open up your eyes drastically. Makeup experts suggest using a soft pencil for lining the lower lid underneath the lash line and smudging the same using a cotton swab or your pinkie finger. Alternatively, you can dip a small brush in your super dark eyeshadow palette and draw a line under the eye to create a naturally smudged look.

• Older women should go ahead with a lengthening mascara over an eyelash volumizing one as the latter can make stubby and short lashes look even stubbier. Coming to mascara shade, dark brown can look comparatively less harsh than a jet black one.
• For getting the best lashes you can use a blow dryer and warm up the lash curler to open up your eyes drastically. However, you should first test the metal so prevent chances of burning your lids accidentally. Once you are done with curling, you should next apply a mascara primer followed by the mascara itself.

People are most likely to stare at your eyes whenever you strike up a conversation with them. Older faces are known to lack luminance of contrast which can be restored by adding definition to the eye area using some carefully applied eye makeup.

Easy Tips Of Removing Eye Makeup To Wake Up Feeling Fresh And Moisturized

Makeup has been accentuating our beauty statistics for ages with its ability to cover up imperfections and blemishes while helping us portray our best features with panache. Eye makeup serves as a focal point of the whole makeup routine since it holds the ability to make or break our entire look. Thus, it is only natural for eye makeup removal to hold an important position in our post-makeup sessions once we are done partying and clicking Instagram worthy selfies. Today, we shall take you through some easy eye makeup removal tips so that you don’t have a break a bone while dealing with the same.

To start with, you can use “tear free” baby shampoo for removing waterproof mascara, eyeliner and eyeshadow without forking over the hard-earned cash by bringing home a fancy & best eye makeup remover. You can dab some shampoo on a cotton ball and use the same to wipe over your eyelids. Usage of cotton ball ensures that the entire process becomes all the more mess free. You can make use of a Q-tip if you wish to remove just a part of your makeup which you had smudged by mistake.

Some foam might appear on application of baby shampoo. In such cases, you are advised to keep your eyes closed and avoid chances of the same getting inside your eyes. It is always better to be safe than sorry even when you are using a “tear free” alternative. Once you are done applying the shampoo, you need to wash off the same using lukewarm water and your washcloth. You can try out the methods detailed below if baby shampoo fails to produce viable results in your eye makeup removal routine.

Your cold cream, moisturizer or facial cleanser can also come to your rescue unless you plaster your face using cakey makeup. You just need to close your eyes and rub these beauty essentials gently over the area prior to wiping it off using a cloth. Unless you are using a harsh cleanser containing salicylic acid, you don’t have to worry about the same stinging your eyes. Dab your eyes using a dry towel once you are done with the cleansing routine.

You can even make a natural eye makeup remover utilising the purest of ingredients from Mother Earth’s lap. You can combine 2 ounces each of olive oil and witch hazel to make a DIY eye makeup remover. Shake the concoction and dab some on cloth or cotton ball before wiping across the area. Repeat the process once again but this time using a dry cotton ball or cloth. Although witch hazel doesn’t have the best of smells, it can smoothen your skin and make it wrinkle free.

If you have sensitive skin, then we shall advise you to invest in a premium eye makeup remover. You can take your pick from the tried and tested brands such as Neutrogena, Clinique, MAC, Noxzema and Lancome and bid adieu to that stubborn eye makeup with a simple wipe.
