Skincare is really important to help reverse and prevent signs of aging. You really want to make sure your skin is hydrated and protected from any potential sun damage before you apply your makeup.
1. **Cleansers:**
I recently tried it and now I’m obsessed. Reasonably priced too. This cleanser is completely underestimated. It is gentle and non-stripping, it helps maintain the skin’s natural moisture barrier.
Another cleanser I highly recommend that was recently introduced to me is the Simply You |Facial Cleansing Oil by
Intended Cosmetics:** An amazing product for makeup removal, hydration and skin prep.
If you feel like splurging on a cleanser, skincare by Obaji offers many wonderful hydrating cleanser. ZO Skin Health Exfoliating Cleanser for normal to oily skin, leaving your skin like you just got an expensive facial.
2. **Serums:**
Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair:** A cult favorite for its anti-aging benefits and hydration. When it comes to serums it’s kind of expected to go a little out of budget.
Definitely a product that is worth the extra money and you’ll want to add to your night-time skincare routine.
Clarins Double Serum:** Packed with antioxidants, it helps brighten and firm the skin.
3. **Moisturizers:**

### Makeup
1. **Primers:**
Smashbox Photo Finish Primerizer:** A primer and moisturizer in one, providing a smooth base that helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and pores.
e.l.f. Power Grip Primer** Blurs pores and fine lines for a flawless finish. Designed for all skin types, oily, normal or dry skin. The primer is only 10 dollars. Works amazingly by locking in makeup and looks fresh all day long.
2. **Foundations:**
Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Foundation:** A beautiful light weight foundation that is buildable for maximin coverage. This foundation is hydrating with a dewy finish. A little pricey for foundation, priced at 69 dollars but very well worth it.
NARS Sheer Glow Foundation:** Provides a radiant, natural finish without settling into fine lines.
There are many ways to apply your foundation, with a brush, a beauty blender or your hands. I like to begin by prepping my skin by using a primer like the E.L.F. Power grip primer. I then set with setting spray, then use a damp beauty blender and press the foundation on to my skin. I set with pressed powder using a fluffy brush.
3. **Concealers:**
Futurist Soft Touch Brightening Skincealer Concealer:** Full coverage and hydrating. Best used with a color corrector first.
Tarte Cosmetics Creaseless Concealer:** This amazing concealer has the best coverage, it’s very hydrating and creamy making the application very satisfying.
4. **Blushes:**
Anastasia Beverly Hills Stick blush:** in shades Latte and Pink Dahlia** Creamy formula that adds a natural flush. I apply it with a fluffy fan brush by MAC Cosmetics.
Rosy Glow Blush by Dior:** Provides a subtle, radiant finish.
5. **Eyeshadows:**
Sweet Peach Palette by Tarte Cosmetics:** When it comes to eyeshadow, I have quite the selection with over 30 palettes. Lately, I have been using the Sweet Peach Palette by Tarte cosmetics. Unfortunately this palette is discontinued but if you can get your hands on it, it’s perfect for everyday use. The shades are neutral with a hint of color, the shadows are very creamy and blend beautifully. Perfect for mature eyes.
6. **Lipsticks:**
Benefit Benetint Rose-tinted lip & cheek stain:** Recently I have been using a lip stain with sheer gloss over. As we begin to age, you’ll notice the color from your lips start to fade away. This lip tint is perfect for adding some color and dimension to your lips.
Dior Lip Oil:** Sheer and moisturizing with a hint of color. It is a tiny bit sticky but well worth the look it gives your lips.
MAC Cosmetics Lip Liners:** MAC has got to be my favorite makeup brand when it comes to lipliners. The formula is classic and long wear.
7. **Brows:**
When it comes to brows, I tend to use more than one product. A brow gel, powder and liner. All by Benefit Cosmetics.
8.**Setting Spray:**
Hangover 3-in-1 Replenishing Primer & Setting Spray:** Ensures makeup stays in place without drying out the skin. I love this setting spray. You can reapply through out the day to freshen up your makeup. Perfect for under makeup and top of makeup.
