Time is No Slouch

The older you get, the more work you have to put in to just looking respectable.  Old habits have to change.  A lick of lippy and a blown kiss to the mirror just doesn't cut it anymore.  The simple little knickers and a sexy bra do nothing to enhance your mystique.  Everything is heading south except your age.  I can let you in on a few godsends that make life a little easier.

1.  Tinted moisturiser - gives a light coverage and doesn't sink into pores or wrinkles, providing it is well applied.

2.  Eyeshadow as eyeliner - applied deftly under the eye provides definition without drawing attention to crows feet or bags.

3.  Primers - face and eye, help your foundation to last longer and eyeshadows stay out of creases.

4.  Concealers - there is a dizzying array on the market, yellow to mask dark circles under the eyes, green for redness and all flesh colours for general correction.

5.  Matt eyeshadow - if you have any loss of lid condition STAY AWAY FROM SHIMMER EYESHADOWS, except for highlight just under the brow.

6.  Glitter eyeliners - just for the upper lid and not too heavy.

7.  White eyeliner - on the lower water line, will make you seem far more alert than you actually are.

8.  Lip liners - are a must to make the most of your best facial feature, line lips then fill them in with the pencil and apply a matching lipstick with a brush, or lip gloss.

9.  Moist shimmer lipsticks and lip glosses - make your pout very desirable indeed.

10.  Pluck those eyebrows - a narrower line is better now, to maximise your eye area but don't over do it.

11.  FOUNDATION GARMENTS - use them... ALL THE TIME.

Remember, above all, go easy on yourself. You'll feel great when you can make yourself up and look better than you have in years.
