12 Most Common Mistakes After 50 Years Old-Part 1

If your makeup ritual has not changed much in 30 years old, it's time to update it. Here's how to fix the 12 most common mistakes after 50 years old. In order to release you from a heavy reading load, we will share them with you in three parts. Now Follow the part 1 now:

Mistake # 1: Stop putting on makeup

As soon as the time of retirement rings, many women stop playing with makeup. Too bad ... As you get older, makeup becomes a precious ally: it hides certain imperfections, hides the signs of fatigue, enhances the complexion, lights the eyes. A tip for all those who do not know how to update their makeup: go to a beauty counter in a department store. Several major brands offer free makeup sessions.

Mistake # 2: Use a rich base cream

Older women often apply excessively rich eye and face creams. As these cheap makeup products do not penetrate completely, the skin shines and highlights wrinkles and imperfections. It is better to opt for fluid textures during the day and to keep nourishing formulas for the night.

Mistake # 3: Use an over-covering foundation all over the face

Some continue to buy the same thick, matte foundation they used in their twenties, and then apply it all over their faces. But for 30 years, the textures have evolved greatly. The new foundations are lighter, which gives brightness and a much more natural effect. Ideally, the problem areas (dark circles, rashes, brown spots) are worked with the concealer and then standardized with the foundation. Warning: contrary to the belief, putting a good foundation layer does not hide wrinkles and fine lines. On the contrary. The product accumulates in them and accentuates them.

After the fifties, women tend to turn to lifting foundations. We must be wary: because of their matte texture, they can enhance the appearance of wrinkles and give a frozen face. Because mature skin is thin, thin and dry, moisturizing foundations are much better. And to counter the loss of brightness due to aging, prefer slightly rosy beige. Finally, instead of uniformly covering the entire face with the foundation, we put a hint on the middle area and, with the fingers, it is stretched to the maximum around the edge to melt well and avoid the plaster effect. It can also be placed by small touches, in strategic places (forehead, chin, cheekbones, wings of the nose) to simply give a boost.

Mistake # 4: Too much concealer

The excess of concealer will lodge in wrinkles and makes them more visible. To counter this inconvenience, we first choose a concealer liquid or cream rather than stick, and it is used as a cream around the eyes: we deposit a small amount on the tip of the little finger, then spread it by tapping.
