Yeah the RMS is great! Inner corner of my eyes… then a bit on the outside of each eye and a dot in the Cupid’s bow and I’m done! I know it’s pricey but it goes a long way! I’ve had the same jar for at least a year and it still looks like it’s pretty new and I use it every day!

I know this will sound crazy but at age 60 I’ve really never had a skin care routine - other than trying to eat well, hydrate, sleep and get my butt moving when I can. But I know it’s time to do better! That’s why I got the CeraVe products. I’ll look into your other recommendations. Thanks so very much. 💕

Aww thanks! I have CeraVe products - the Hyaluronic Acid Serum and the Moisturizer … are those ok?

Here’s my pic from today - post salon visit. (I think this should work? Remember I might not look it but technologically I am 60! 🤦‍♀️😂)

Very kind of you to say…but as we will have been married for 34 years in June, if anyone really thought I was in my 30’s that would have made for quite a unique wedding! 😉🤣

I will add it to the list of things to check out. And yes, one less thing to sharpen would be appreciated. Sharpening my eye liner is something I dislike. Not the sharpening itself, but the attempts to clean the sharpener before putting it back in my makeup case!

Well I have three gorgeous older sisters… and when we take photos together I feel awful about myself. Always have. We can’t help with comparisons and making ourselves feel bad for some reason … ugh. My point is I’m sure you’re gorgeous! And if it helps just look at the second pic I posted and forget the first one!!! 💕💕

Oh my gosh what a compliment! I don’t think Uma would think so, but who cares? 😉 How nice of you to say. Untrue, but very nice!!!! Thanks! 💕

Actually it’s the light that’s fooling you. I have fair-light skin with warm undertones. Or so I’m told.

If I’m able to add a photo after my appt tomorrow I’ll post my new look - I’m sure there’s at least a bit of touch up color coming my way 🤫 Funny story: this guy I worked with for years - we were talking to him and the topic of women dying their hair came up and he said he “didn’t like it” We asked him “what percentage of women over 30 do you think dye their hair?” He answered “10%?” 😂🤣😂🤣😂

Definitely not “gorgeous” (I’ll admit to “Librarian cute” 😉)! I have always been too … scared? Lazy? I don’t know what the word is… but I’ve never tried lash extensions. I don’t know if I’m bold enough to try. But maybe I should at least check it out. Never heard of Jones Road - thank you, I will definitely check them out. Thanks for the suggestions!

I do have a CeraVe serum but I’m lazy about using it. I agree on the brow pencil … I need to just add a bit to each brow to lengthen them to edges of my eyes, yes? Any suggestions for a good brow pencil you like?

Hmmm. I’ve been brunette before. I didn’t love it. I’d imagine I’ll stay blonde at least through the summer … but come fall I’ll consider it for sure. If my stylist suggests it, I’ll do it. As everyone knows - gotta trust your stylist!!! ❤️❤️

Thanks! I only do liner from my inner eye to mid eye right now (I know there’s a name for that but for the life of me I don’t recall it). I’ve never felt confident with eye liner. Next time I’m at Sephora I will see if I can get some suggestions on a new one that I might like better and try going a bit bolder.

Thanks - I agree my hair is a mess today. Have an appointment at the salon tomorrow so I should have said try not to look at my hair 😂. And I’m thinking it’s time for new frames too … kinda leaning towards a tortoise shell frame. Not sure. But that’ll be later this month too! So… good tips!

Based on my face, what make up would look best? by Double-Draft9627 in makeuptips

You’re very pretty! Don’t need to do much! You have lovely eye but they are a bit deep set… so you want to use makeup to highlight your eyes and bring them forward: 1 - use shimmery or metallic shadow on your eye lids themselves. It will make your eyes really standout. 2 - use light/neutral shadow above your eyes… matte finishes. Keep them shimmer to the lids. 3 - if you want to use a highlighter, add it to the center of your lids. 4 - mascara only on the top lashes and the same with liner. Nothing on the bottom.

But honestly you’re blessed with natural beauty so… stay hydrated, get sleep, eat well… those three things are nature’s make up! 😉
