To make things easier to follow, we have broken this down into these four sections: Hope you enjoy some of these beauty tips for that 40+ mature older woman!!!
As we get older our skin color changes and begins to thin. The best way to counteract this is to find the right shade and texture of foundation.

* I find that using liquid or cream foundations work best on aging skin. * Avoid using powders, as they tend to make us look older and settle into the lines. Some other great products to have on hand is a primer to smooth out the skin while filling in fine lines and a skin brightener to reflect light and make the skin glow and gorgeous!! Apply primer first... Then the skin brightener... Then do your foundation routine. If you feel adventurous, try what many makeup artists do and mix different foundation colors together to get the perfect match. Just have fun trying things!!! Think of it like when you were in school playing with water colors, how fun it was to mix all the colors together!!!
Foundation colors - What is right for me? 
Take a look at your skin and see which undertones are more dominant, yellow or pink/beige. As we get older, our skin thins out leaving behind the blue and red veins under our skin exposed. I find using a foundation color that has more yellow works best for all of us!! To see what color swatches work for you, just find your appropriate skin tone category and have fun!!

Before we get into everything you've heard about from smokey eyes to eyeshadow colors, one essential part of your eyes has to be talked about. The Eyebrow

Eyebrows frame your face and make you look flawless when done correctly. Long gone are the days of over tweezing and the over exaggerated arch. There are so many great tools on the market to help you get that perfect brow that is right for your face. Not all brows are alike, depending on the structure of the face, comes the arch and shape. Try Anastasia’s Brow Kit to start your new look. Or you can get your brows professionally taken care of at your local spa for your initial shape. You will be so thrilled you did!!!
Brow and Eyeshadow colors - Swatches that match your eyes. To see what color swatches work for you, just find your appropriate skin tone category and have fun!!Quick Tip on Concealers: Like most of us that need to use concealer to cover dark circles or unwanted spots, look for a color that has more peach or orange. Be careful not to go too light….otherwise it will make our under eyes even worse!! The right concealer can knock off years!! This will balance the purples or dark spots that we want to cover.
