Make-up for mature skin

Even more beautiful by the day.

Because you know yourself and because you can enhance your features. Here are our top make-up tips for mature skin.

What you can expect from make-up for mature skin.

Make-up for mature skin can masterfully accentuate what makes you feel most beautiful – whether it's your eyes, your cheeks or your lips. You know best which areas you would like to show off and those you would rather conceal. Great make-up for mature skin can do both, confidently highlighting the areas you love and elegantly drawing attention away from others.

Make-up for mature skin must excel at this task.

All make-up for mature skin should conceal some aspects such as redness, dilated capillaries, but without weighing down skin or emphasising wrinkles wherever possible. Foundation for mature skin over should be gentle, light and preferably a liquid rather than powder.

What else? Your make-up for mature skin should also feature brows to frame both your eyes and your face, and to enhance your lashes.

TIPS:

Why high-quality skin care is so important.

The condition of your skin changes with age. Good make-up for mature skin should acknowledge this by offering the appropriate care. Let your make-up shine by applying high-quality daytime skin care as a base: a light and hydrating or regulating face cream, as well as a special cream for the particularly delicate eye area. And because your skin will not just become dryer and thinner but also more sensitive, your skin care should be well tolerated and offer effective protection against environmental influences. 

Make-up for mature skin: less is more.

Mature skin doesn't need a lot to look its best, think less is more. A pigmented day cream or foundation, a touch of concealer, some mascara and a pop of Lipstick provide the perfect base. An Eye Brow Definer pencil, Eyeshadow, Eye Definer pencil and Blush, Bronzing Powder and Highlighter can enhance your look even more. Your skin will love make-up with refreshing, gentle, creamy textures and high-quality ingredients. Well-matched shades and soft blending will only flatter it further.

Can you actually conceal wrinkles?

You can draw attention away from your wrinkles with light-reflecting products that give skin a beautiful glow, and the trick of light. A concealer that's a shade lighter than your foundation also makes wrinkles appear finer. If foundation/powder make-up for mature skin is too heavy or applied too thickly, it can emphasise wrinkles. That's why you should choose a light, liquid Foundation for mature skin and apply it as sparingly. For more coverage, you can apply Colour Correcting Powder.

TIPS:

  • Foundation and skin care for maturing skin with key ingredient whole pomegranate extract.

  • Apply Light Reflecting Concealer which uses a trick of light to conceal.

  • Conceal redness or broken capillaries in cheeks, however, a complexion without Blush looks too one dimensional, you need to add colour back in for rosy cheeks and a youthful look. Think about including Bronzing Powder and our gorgeous Highlighter to catch the light when you move to feature your cheekbones.

What order for your mature skin make-up?

1. Moisturiser: apply to cleansed skin and allow it absorb fully.
2. 
Foundation: for mature skin, choose a light, creamy product and apply sparingly with fingers, a brush or a sponge.
3. Concealer: cover dark circles, redness and age spots.
4. Eye make-up: keep in light at the inner corner of your eyes, shape and define eyebrows, apply eyeshadow and eye pencil and add mascara to enhance your eyes.
5.
Lip Line Definer is transparent and you apply it to the outer contour of your lips which helps stop lip colour from ‘bleeding’.
6.
Lipstick: define your lips with a lip liner, then apply your lipstick. You can top it with a lip care product if you like.
7. For a more dewy finish over powder, mist your
Facial Toner.

More tips for your mature skin make-up.

You know yourself and your skin. But do you know our make-up tips to give mature skin the radiance it deserves?

1. Combine skin care and foundation.
See if the coverage of a day cream with bronzing or light-reflecting pigments is enough for you, such as
Tinted Day Cream, mixing in Translucent Bronzing Tint with your moisturiser, or Regenerating Day Cream Complexion. Alternatively, mix together a cream and foundation for mature skin to conceal light pigmentation and slight redness naturally. Light make-up is ideal for mature skin.

2. With tinted make-up, go for lighter shades.
Choose foundation and concealer a shade lighter than your skin tone for a fresher look. A soft brown is also usually more flattering than a dark brown for eyebrows. You may find brown mascara a softer choice too.

3. Give lip service.
Lip Line Definer helps stop colour from ‘bleeding’ into the fine lines between your upper lip and nose. A Lip Line Definer give your lips the defining wow factor and it also helps to ensure your striking lipstick stays on your lips.

4. Choose one focal point.
We recommend emphasising either your eyes or your lips. Of course, you can change the focal point from day to day depending on your mood and the occasion.

5. SOS: look fresh in an instant.
What if you've only got a few minutes? Then choose a light-reflecting concealer, a highlighter and a mascara.
