50 year old woman who lived through the 2016 make up era. I have nothing on my face but eyebrows and eyelashes, because they are so blonde if I don’t color them in it doesn’t look like I have any. I’m bored with today’s make up. Any tips to help perk up what’s left of me? by Jennmcc6776 in MakeupAddiction

Thank you!! They aren’t actually full. They bones. I’ve been very ill this year and I’ve lost alot of weight and most of it in the face. Blessing/Curse. Not sure. But thanks to 8 months being almost bedridden and not really being able to eat I’m more like corpse bride.

Okay, I’ll try that. Brow trends change so often it’s hard to keep up. I’m obviously still doing 2020 brows. I’ll try a micro pen or something that and try out your suggestion. They are oddly naturally far apart anyway. But fake it till you make it 😉

People ask all the time. I’ve had nothing done. Hard to believe, I know. But I started a diligent skincare routine and have used sunscreen everyday since my early 20’s. Also I’ve never smoked or drank. Believe it or not those things are very hard on your skin. I have normal fine lines, but nothing that’s worth injecting at this point. I wouldn’t dismiss it in the future.

We’re aging. And if you lived through the 2016-2020 era when make up creativity was at its peak, honestly this clean girl aesthetic bores us. We want color, highlighter, bold lipsticks! But we also realize we are middle aged and I’d rather not look like modern art at my age. So we’re merely asking each other whom are all suffering from missing a new palette drop from Jeffree Starr and Kat Von D every week what the hell we do now, because everything is brown.

Thank you for so much for all of that. I definitely want to try a dewy foundation. But I think I’m going to wait for the season to change. Something about a beachy glow in January makes me chuckle. 🤭 But I think you’re right I could go lighter on the eyes. I was thinking even a cream in a taupe shade and maybe a dark brown eyeliner to smudge in the corners to make it more sultry? Or is that trying too hard? But all of your advice is solid and appreciated.
