I loved trying all sorts of new and different techniques! When I was in my 20s and 30s, I was more daring with my makeup looks.
After learning what works best on aging skin, I wanted to save you the learning curve and share these 7 fabulous makeup tips for women over 40 that won’t age your face.
When prepping your face, you’ll want to use primers with hyaluronic acid and collagen to boost moisture, prior to your foundation.

A radiant, lightweight foundation or skin tint blurs and smooths over uneven texture, rather than accentuating it.
2
One of the first areas to show signs of aging are the eyes. Brighten both the upper- and under-eye using the “Triangle of Light” technique.
3
Most makeup artists agree that cream or liquid makeup products can be ideal for more mature skin.
4
You should start the blush further back on your face and not hit the apples of the cheeks as dramatically as when you were younger, since that area tends to droop as we get older.
