LOOK YOUNGER With Makeup Tips Tutorial 50+



Published May 16, 2023, 11:20 a.m. by Naomi Charles


Looking to keep your makeup looking fresh and young? Check out these tips from MrsMelissaM!

1. Use a foundation or BB cream with SPF.

This will help to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays while also providing coverage.

2. Go for a natural look.

Avoid heavy foundations and powders. Instead, opt for a lighter coverage.

3. Use a nude or light lip color.

Dark lips can make you look older. Stick to lighter shades to keep your lips looking young and full.

4. Highlight your eyes.

Use light colors on your eyelids and under your brows to brighten up your eyes.

5. Curl your lashes.

This will open up your eyes and make them appear larger.

6. Fill in your brows.

Brows can make a big difference in your overall appearance. Make sure to fill them in with a pencil or powder that matches your hair color.

7. Blush is your friend.

A little bit of blush can go a long way in making you look younger. Choose a shade that is close to your natural skin tone and apply it to the apples of your cheeks.

8. Use a setting spray.

This will help to keep your makeup in place and prevent it from melting in the heat.

9. Invest in good quality makeup.

Cheap makeup can actually accentuate wrinkles and fine lines. Spend a little extra on high-quality products that will last longer and look better on your skin.

10. Get regular facials.

Facials can help to exfoliate your skin and keep it looking healthy. Get one at least once a month to keep your complexion looking its best.

so today I'm going to show you as many

tips and tricks as I can fit in to doing

my makeup while I'm doing it now you

know that even when I am reviewing

makeup I'm usually giving you tips on

how to do your face if you're over 40

over 50 and Beyond and I really try hard

to just stick with the makeup but

usually what happens is I'm giving you

tips so today I am just letting myself

go and I'm talking the whole way through

this video and hopefully you'll get some

really great tips and tricks out of it

for makeup over 50 and of course over 40

over 60 70 80 however old you are these

are mature beauty tips that I hope that

you do enjoy before we do get started

though I'm going to show you what I have

on that's a part of my channel I know a

lot of people come here just for the

makeup but you guys do seem to like to

see what I have on don't forget we have

a numbering system one through ever many

products we get through just remember

the number and then go down into the

description box and you should be able

to look at the product and Shop that way

there will be a link next to it and also

there will be in the very first pinned

comment here on the video there will be

all the links and the products that I do

talk about in that first pinned comment

let's go ahead and see what I have on

that you might like but if you don't

want to do that there's a timestamp

right here where you can jump ahead to

just the makeup review or just the

makeup that I'm doing all right we'll

start out with what I have on for a top

just a ribbed tank it's kind of got a

square neckline right here but it is

kind of cropped as well so it barely

comes right about to here I do have it

tucked in but it comes about to there

it's a really nice stretchy top but I

will say that it runs a little bit small

so size up if you need to and I've

paired it with just a cute Levi vest

that I found that I am so in love with I

used to wear vests all the time and then

I stopped wearing them but this one I

thought was really cute it's got some

fun gold to detailing on the pockets and

then also has just the little tab that

goes across there it doesn't tighten or

anything but I would say that this one

is kind of true to size this one's a

large and because of my fun chest here I

have a hard time usually with the large

but this one works really good so I

would say that this is fairly true to

size for you and then I also paired it

with a pair of acid wash jeans that I

really do like very much these have a

side zipper on them they are a very

straight Jean which I like about them

too one of the things that I don't think

you're going to be able to see about the

Jean maybe if I backed up just a little

bit more this has a split down the front

of them I have got to get a better

camera lens so that you guys can see

these it has a slit in the front so it's

got kind of just a little bit flare a

little bit of kick and then the shoe

that I paired it with is just a pair of

really super comfortable shoes that I

will show you in just a minute now let

me get a little little bit closer I'll

show you the shoes before I do that this

is just the purse that I've been

carrying around lately it's got that fun

quilting on it that everybody is crazy

for the big bow on it it's big inside

it's got two pockets I really like that

and then it also does have the longer

strap that you can use to throw it over

your shoulder if you like it but I just

thought that this was really cute and

really okay for the jewelry and the

earrings this is just a really fun like

half hoop it's a drop earring it really

isn't a hoop I don't know why they call

it that but it's a cute drop earring

that I just really think is so much fun

and it goes with just about anything

wear it by themselves or pair it with

some other jewelry I do have a link

necklace on which I can also put down

below in the description box and then

just a fun little bead right here on

this necklace that I've had forever and

I think it came with a different

necklace too so you get a twofer on that

one all right we're gonna get into this

tutorial there are so so many any

different tips in here so make sure that

you're ready for that get yourself a

snack and a drink and we'll sit back and

we'll put on our makeup together don't

forget that I do have a ton of base

makeup tutorials makeup tutorials for

foundation and concealer so I will have

my base makeup done in this video to

start with and to save time I also have

one side of my face done so we're gonna

do just the other side of my face

together hope you enjoy the tutorial

let's get into it let's start with

putting on our eyeshadow primer

Anastasia Beverly Hills this is the one

that I use all the time and just works

so well for me cancels out any

discoloration that you might have on

that eyelid and really helps the eye

shadow to stick very well once you get

that on there take any powder brush that

you may have been using and just go

across it to put a little powder on

there so that your eyeshadow doesn't

skip that's our first step all right we

are using the brand new Alter Ego

mid-summer palette this is what that

looks like and it is such a good

comparison for the Anastasia Beverly

Hills Nouveau palette now it's kind of

in different a different order but it

works just the same and to prove that

because I do have this side of my face

already done I use the Nouveau palette

on this side and we are going to use the

midsummer palette from Alter Ego on this

side so I'm going to start by taking a

fluffy brush from refer this is the

number 15 and I'm going to go into this

one right here which is kind of a

neutral taupe color and then I'm going

to go back and forth into the white just

a little bit so I get a very light wash

of color for my transition and then I'm

going to of course just go back and

forth a little bit above the crease so

that you are getting most of your color

above the crease if you go down below

the crease and you have hooded eyes or

you have eye eyes that are sagging at

all what's going to happen is all of

your color is going to disappear so

let's look down but let's go really high

above that crease again all the way in

to the inner corner by the inner part of

the eyebrow and going all the way out

kind of in a straighter line not super

arched but a little bit arched there

into the tail of the brow once you get

that done we're going to go into the

deeper colors in here which actually

look like they're a little bit green

they're very deep Olive I'm going to go

into this color right here and we're

going to make more of a cool look and

I'm loading the brush up yes but I'm

tapping it off a lot because I don't

want too much to get on there to begin

with again I'm going to go just above

the crease the natural crease so when I

open up my eye you can still see that

there's color there and I'm going to

bring it in about a third of the way but

I'm going into the crease more here into

the inner part than I am out here so out

towards the tail of the brow I'm going

to be bringing my color almost straight

to the tail of that brow and what I'm

doing with this particular look is I'm

bringing it just a little bit further

than the tail of the brow now that's

something that I'm sure that you haven't

seen before and you're looking at it

you're going oh my goodness I don't know

if I like that I get it let's just trust

the process okay we're going to go back

in here and we're going to build that up

just a little bit and we're going to

continue to push that out towards the

tail of the brow and just a bit beyond

it got a little bit more one more time

and then we're going to go right onto

the lid and we're going to deposit it

and we're going to build up this outer

part of the lid about a third of the way

in

and then we're going to connect all of

this

and push it up towards the tail of the

brow so it looks like we definitely have

that swoop can you see how nice it is to

pull that up like that even when we're

going further out than the tail of the

brow it's still pulling that up and we

don't have to have a wing in order to

make it look like it's pulling up all of

this we're going to take care of in just

a minute but right now we're just

working on just the shadow so at this

point just take your rag or whatever you

may have and just take off all the

shadow off of that brush and we're going

to just blend now we're going to go

ahead and we're going to blend all of

this so that it looks seamless and soft

and we're just going to continue to push

just a little bit further past the tail

of the brow and once you get that to

where you feel like it's really Blended

well go ahead and grab your number 15

Brush again you don't need any more

product on it just continue on and blend

everything together make it look

seamless now go down with your finger

into this very bright green and pick

that up on your finger and just dab it

across your lid all the way two thirds

out we're going all the way across the

lid and all the way into the inner

corner

just laying that down quite a bit of the

product we're going to lay down and now

as you can see it is nowhere near as

bright as this side that's because now

we're going to take that same finger and

we're going to go into the matte white

that's in here or the matte cream and

we're just going to take that and we're

going to dab it again across that green

and just pick it up and make it very

vibrant now you can see that putting

that white on top of the green really

brought it down or really made it more

muted and that's exactly what you want

to do such a pretty look now you do have

quite a bit a little bit of mess going

on out there what I want you to do in

this instance is I want you to take a

rag mine is a little bit damp from what

I was doing this morning and I'm just

going to take that Rag and I'm going to

use it almost like a brush and I'm going

to just brush everything out make sure

that it's not too far past the tail but

at the same time I don't want to lose

that up turn right there so I'm just

going to make sure all of this is taken

care of and then what I'm going to have

to do is I'm going to have to put a

little bit of my concealer back in this

area cleaning off my finger I did not

use a lot of concealer there anyway

today I actually used mostly my

Foundation underneath my eye but we're

going to go ahead and we're going to use

just a tiny tiny bit of the concealer

and we are going to just dab it

underneath the eye

and once I get that on there I'm going

to let it sit for a few minutes and set

up while I do a few other things now

just letting it set I'm going to take a

spoolie off of the colourpop pencil that

I'm using for brows and I'm going to

just brush up these brows right here and

then I'm going to brush them Inward and

then I'm going to brush them down now

the reason that I do that is because I

want to get everything in there all the

makeup that I had in there out but also

brushing them down you all of a sudden

get to see where your natural brow line

is where you need to fill everything in

and what also helps is I don't have to

go in with so much pencil I'm going to

use the new Sephora this is a brow gel

but look at how tiny the little spoolie

is on there isn't that great and very

small Strokes I'm going to start to just

barely build it up and of course I'm

going to take it out further in more of

a straight line I don't want to pull my

eyebrow down I want to pull it in a

straight line if I can at all so that

the tail of what we did with that

eyeshadow meets that and it looks like

it was purposely done that way so in

here we're going to go a few Strokes

inward a little bit more than we would

normally do because we want a little bit

more thicker brow

and then we're going to go through the

brow again and continue to go through

your brow I only use this product unless

there are specific bald spots I need to

fill in I only use this product to do my

brows I love other brow products too and

I try them all the time but right now

this is so easy for me and it's giving

that really nice fluffy look that I like

and it's helping me to look like I have

more brows than I actually do okay done

with the Brows now just go in with a

clean finger and really tap out any of

the excess on the concealer that you had

because now what we're going to do is

we're going to go over it with powder to

set everything now everybody in their

dog is using these little triangle Puffs

but they really are nice I also did want

to show you that the Laura Mercier the

new powder that she has out I really do

like this and I like it to set my under

eyes I did not think that I would like

any sort of a shimmer to set my under

eyes but this doesn't have so much

Shimmer that it makes things look weird

and I also have found that the nice

thing I do like about under eyes is when

you have a little bit a wet look

underneath there you look like you have

a little bit more hydration and I love

that about having on concealer but then

you put powder on and all of a sudden it

looks like you just dried yourself out

immediately so putting this little tiny

bit of the powder that has a little bit

of Shimmer on it from the Laura Mercier

helps that I'm also going to go in with

another PR product now I will tell you

that the jury is still out on this this

is the makeup forever it's called HD

skin twist and like mine is in the color

light I do not like this delivery system

is all at all it's like you have to work

in order to get the powder out and it's

like you're breaking your arm to do that

so I am not crazy about that delivery

system I don't feel like you can hardly

get anything out of there maybe that's

the point I'm not sure but I've been

using it for a little bit now in the

delivery system this does not have me

convinced that it is the best powder and

maybe it's because they can't get enough

out to really see whether or not I like

the powder all right makeup over 50 I

also do a very strategic inner corner

highlight I found very recently that I

love this Giorgio Armani eyeshadow I

just put that on a paddle brush and I'm

just going to lay it down right here in

the inner Corner forgot to do this side

so we're going to do it a little bit and

we're going to just distribute that so

it looks more natural than just a bright

little disco ball in the corner of our

eyes I'm going to go ahead with my

pencil brush I'm going to pick up the

green that is in here and it is a green

it is a shimmer I'm going to pick that

up and I'm going to pick a little bit of

this teal blue deep teal blue up and

then I will tap that off and I will put

that on as my eyeshadow liner

connecting it with the outer part

of the eye shadow

but I also stay away from this inner

Corner as much as I can I got a new

eyelash curler I don't know if I'm

completely sold on this it's okay it's

not got a very nice round to it as far

as the half moon Dome part goes it

doesn't fit my eye really well it has

like a little separating comb on it

right here and that's nice but I don't

know if I'm 100 sold on this thing so

the jury is out and I think I still like

my refer I think refer is probably the

one that made it the best eyelash curler

I've ever used it's so gentle so easy to

use and it just molds to your eyes so

nicely let's go ahead and use some brown

eyeliner across the top of the eye

before we put on our mascara inner

corner of the eye very very close to the

eyelash

root and then all the way out but don't

drag your eye down try to continue your

eye look out with just a little bit

extra going out don't do a wing just go

a little bit extra there and now I'm

also trying out and I am actually quite

in love with this the new elf lash and

roll I was really surprised I'm not a

humongous fan of the benefit roller lash

but this one is really nice it lengthens

and it gives me a lot of volume and I'm

really surprised at how I was taken with

this in that it does do its job and it

doesn't flake or smudge on me and yeah

I'm really excited about this one I

think they did a great job for a do okay

and probably the most surprised and

excited to share with you the new elf

Halo glow Beauty wand and this is the

Contour one I'll make sure that in the

description box next to the link is the

color I believe this one is the lightest

one I'm really surprised at how nice

these are just really a great product

and I'm I have it on this side so we're

going to put it in my hairline what I

want to show you about doing your

hairline especially with Contour is that

this is the easiest way for you to

disguise your hairline and you want to

do it with a little bit more muddy of a

contour and when something says a

contour but it looks really warm you

want to steer clear of that because it's

going to be more of a bronzer and it's

really not going to give you that

receding shadow that you want what I

want you to do normally we as women have

in mind where we think that our hairline

should have started so we have all this

space mine goes way back there and I

feel like I want to disguise at least

two fingers full if not three fingers

full of where I think my hairline should

have started so what I'm going to do is

I'm going to draw right here let's push

up just a little bit more out I'm going

to draw right here oh gosh I'm going to

draw right here where I think my

forehead should have started and then

I'm going to draw on this side and then

I'm going to draw down and that is

really it and what I want you to do now

is I want you to take a dense Shader

brush and push all of that Contour back

into your hairline so that it looks like

it is shaded and make sure you get the

edge up here in the front but this is

the easiest funnest way that I have

found recently to do contour and I am

and I feel like I'm almost the queen of

Contour because I've done so many

Contour videos but this has been a very

very easy way for me to do my Contour I

take it clear into my hair and yes it

may look like it's not going to work yet

but believe me trust the process it will

work okay you've buffed everything out

now take whatever you used with your

foundation and just go along there once

again and bring it together are in a

seamless line Looks So natural and so

nice if you feel like you got too

carried away take that all the way up

into the hairline and work with it that

way I love this process I think it's so

great now what I'm going to do is I'm

going to go above where I feel like I

should have a cheekbone and I'm going to

paint that there and again take the

brush the very dense Brush by the way

this is the new BK Beauty it's the in

between one between the Contour and the

foundation one and it Shades so well I

love the way that this brush Shades so

I'm going to just bounce or stipple I'm

going to take with whatever is left on

my brush and I'm going to go up like

this I'm going to go just towards my

nose I don't do a lot of nose Contour I

also want to take that contour and I

want to disguise any sort of gels I have

which are right here so I'm going to go

in a straight line and then I'm going to

go in a triangle right here and try and

disguise the double chin and come

straight down and get rid of this turkey

neck so here we go and we're going to

once again just use this brush to really

buff out and blend everything together

so that everything just looks so

seamless what I don't want you to forget

is go in between each and every step

with the original sponge that you use to

do your makeup I maybe used a foundation

brush to put on your foundation if you

did just keep some sort of a sponge by

you this is a really great sponge it's

called the stands out sponge and going

in between each step it really does help

and that's really what it was meant to

do it just me is meant to perfect okay

another new product is the Halo glow

Beauty wand blush these blushes are very

very pretty they're very saturated and I

actually don't put these right on my

face I squeeze it onto my hand and then

I do use a beauty blender for this and I

just dab into the product and kind of

distribute it around my hand a little

little bit so it's not going to get so

much on my cheek at once and then I go

right over top of what I was doing there

with my contour and I'm just going to

put however much on and build it however

much you think that you need to meet

your blush needs you can go as light or

as dark as you want to this is a very

very pretty blush and I have had this

side on all morning long I am really

enjoying using it of course I use a lot

of my blush out here towards my temple

to kind of build that up and I also will

go up into my hairline just a little bit

and it kind of helps with that Contour

that we just did bring everything

together I just think this is such a

beautiful look now we're going to use

the elf Halo glow Beauty this is the

highlighter and I'm going to put that

there on my hand again I don't want to

put that right onto my face and I happen

to have this two-sided tart brush with

me so I'm gonna just put that on that

really thinner side and I'm going to to

spread it around again and then I'm

going to put it on my cheeks now really

I don't really need this because that

blush was so so very glowy itself but

the more glow the better we might as

well go for it I'm going to put it a

little bit right there on my Cupid's bow

if you want to put it on your chin a

little bit down your nose a little bit

across your forehead that's totally up

to you I'm going to go back and I'm

going to take what little bit of blush

is on that sponge still and I'm going to

just dab it across my face so for I

don't know if they have this anymore but

I know that they have had it very

recently this is their Prime lip liner I

forgot I had it and it went the back of

my drawer so I'm going to outline my

lips bigger than they normally would be

because I want there to be a barrier for

where my lip gloss is going to go this

is the Revlon ColorStay ink Suede and

this one is called in charge this is

quite pink so I'm going to go ahead and

put it on

and I'm going to top it with tiramisu

from the NYX Butter glosses I love this

one

that's going to tame our pink down just

a little bit all right I'm gonna take my

hair down and we will talk about the

look okay I hope that you did enjoy

seeing this quick tutorial of tips and

new makeup that I wanted to try for you

speaking of this palette is just so

amazing and I am completely and totally

Blown Away with the wands and the glass

roller lash enroll better get that right

the Lash and roll from Elf I really have

been enjoying this as I said in the

beginning I have a ton of tutorials on

foundation and concealer if you want to

see those and I'll make sure that I link

a couple Down Below in the description

box for you don't forget that everything

that I've talked about and anything that

I'm wearing will be listed in the first

pinned comment on this video as well as

down in the description box because I

know some people kind of have a hard

time finding the description box but we

should be able to easily find the

comments and I hope that does help you

make sure you tell me down in the

comments section what you think of the

look and how it turned out and I hope

that this kind of bronzy look with a

little bit of brightness to it helps you

so very much and take care bye my

friends
