This article is aimed at all those women over the age of 40 who see themselves old and sagging. This article will help you look much younger naturally (with makeup), and improve your taste in dressing. Remember that makeup is the only means (unless you resort to expensive and silly plastic surgery) that can improve the appearance of your face and make you look younger while feeling physically comfortable.
Steps
Step 1. Wash every day
This means taking a hot shower or bath. Hygiene is the first step towards your beauty. So remember to wash each part of your body properly, with a mild soap or shower gel.
Step 2. Hydrate
Nourish your body and face with a moisturizer. If you have very fair skin, you can choose to lightly brown it with a tinted or self-tanner cream.
Step 3. Remember to dry yourself properly using a soft towel
Step 4. Wash your hair with a quality shampoo
Step 5. Use a good conditioner, then rinse your hair carefully to remove all traces of product
Step 6. Blow dry your hair upside down to create more volume
Don't forget to apply a serum that protects them from the heat.
Step 7. Dye your hair as often as necessary
But remember to contact a hairdresser instead of opting for a do-it-yourself color, an expert hand will be able to give you an absolutely perfect result, and will know how to apply the color carefully, without irritating the skin. You can also undergo a test for allergic reactions (it is easier to be allergic to home dyes than to professional ones), and opt for a professional color that does not damage your hair excessively and makes it shiny. Even if it is very expensive, it will be worth it, and if you are not satisfied with the result, trust the hairdresser without forgetting that there is another one on the corner of the street.
Step 8. Get your hair cut by a professional whenever necessary
And remember to style them properly.
Step 9. Use the right hair cosmetics for your needs:
smoothing, protective, fixing, etc. Again, seek professional advice to avoid damaging them.
Step 10. When you wake up, whether you shower or not, wash your face
Step 11. Put on your makeup
Use a foundation with a natural tone and suitable for your body skin color, complete with a similar powder. Try black or brown mascara, and gold or white / cream eyeshadow to brighten your eyes.
Step 12. If you like it, apply a stroke of eyeliner
If you are no longer very young or if your appearance reveals a few years too many, avoid features that are too dark or thick. The purpose of this guide is to make you look young, but not without taste.
Step 13. Apply red or beige blush to cheeks
Do it while you smile.
Step 14. Use petroleum jelly on your lips, followed by a nice color lipstick (blend it with your fingers for a natural effect)
Finish with lip balm or lipstick fixer. The action of the transparent fixing product seals the color on the lips until the moment the product is removed. Note: You may need to reapply it.
Step 15. Brush your teeth in the morning, after meals, and in the evening before going to sleep
Use a good toothbrush accompanied by clean water and quality toothpaste. You can also use peppermint candies and sprays to keep your breath fresh.
Step 16. Make an appointment with your dentist approximately every 6 months
Step 17. Wear clothes that fit your body shape, for example if you have a prominent belly or hips, avoid low-rise pants
You will find that those with a high waist will be able to give you the best. If your legs aren't the thinnest, minimize them with black pants / leggings / stockings. And if you really hate your legs, try covering them with long, loose dresses!
Step 18. Go to the trendiest shops and choose clothing that is appropriate for your age
You can search the web and customize your style.
Step 19. Keep your hands and feet tidy by taking care of your nails, use nail polish to strengthen and brighten them
Go to a beauty center for a checkup.
Step 20. Eat a healthy diet and drink plenty of water and natural fruit juices, doing so will help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight and have stronger, healthier and shinier hair, skin and nails
Step 21. Go to a beauty center for hair removal for legs, arms, eyebrows, etc
Step 22. Make sure your legs are always perfectly shaved
Advice
- Exfoliate your facial skin at least once a week. Dab your face with the towel to dry it instead of rubbing it.
- Remember to cover any unwanted skin imperfections with a concealer of the right shade for your skin color and foundation. Don't forget to hide bags and dark circles as well before applying foundation.
Warnings
- Stay healthy and completely remove your make-up at the end of the day.
- Use a body spray, deodorant, and perfume to always give off a pleasant smell.
- Wash your clothes before they become dirty or smelly.
- Don't overdo your makeup. Choose a natural makeup, without completely avoiding it.
