There are 3 major mistakes mature women make when applying concealer!!!

The first one is the most important……

1️⃣ You are not PREPPING the area first!
Your concealer will look like crap if you apply it to dry skin. Use a hydrating lightweight eye cream and apply generously to the under eye area. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes. (Brush your teeth, do your hair….)Then wipe of excess and apply concealer! What a difference!!!!

2️⃣ You are using the wrong color!
Most women use a shade that is way too light, creating the dreaded racoon effect instead of actually concealing dark circles. Choose a shade that MATCHES your skin tone and use it SPARINGLY! You an always add more. If you have dark circles, choose a shade with a peach undertone to color correct!!

3️⃣ You are using WAY TO MUCH!!!!
Concealer is a dense product by nature and you need VERY LITTLE to see a big difference. Apply it to the inner and outer corners of your eyes, avoiding your smile lines. Just apply it where you see redness and/or darkness. Blend, blend, blend!

✨BETTER SKIN FAST✨

To SHOP this serum, type the word FAST into the comment section of this post.

✨Let’s talk about this unique intensive treatment serum from @Biopelle called Tensage Intensive serum 40.

✨ (#AD) This product is an anti-aging serum that is amazing for redness, hyperpigmentation and sensitive skin like mine and is fantastic to use after a laser or microneedling treatment, it helps to optimize results, shorten downtime and reduce negative procedural side effects.
✨ It contains key ingredients such as natural growth factors, antioxidants and hyaluronic acid and I love how the packaging is perfect for travel and delivers the highest potency dose each time.

✨ If you suffer from rendness, sensitivity and dull skin, give this a try. You will not be disspointemnt. I have linked it for you via my @ltk app app.

➡️HOW TO APPLY CREAM BLUSH⬅️

➡️ To SHOP my favorite cream blushes type the word BLUSH into the comments of this post!

➡️ PRO TIP: Always, always, always warm up cream products before applying them. It makes them much easier to apply and give you a pretty and natural, flushed look.

➡️ Also, a little bit goes a long way! So, apply sparingly. Makeup is like cooking with salt! You can always add a little more! ❤️

PRETTY IN PINK💕

To SHOP type the word PINK into the comments of this post 💕

Pink is my favorite color and I love incorporating it into my makeup look.
I think it adds a fresh and pretty pop of color and is suitable for any complexion.

I pulled out all of my fancy makeup for this look that would be perfect for a date night makeup look, a wedding, or any event or occasion. Or, just wear it for the heck of it!
Here are the stars of the show:

⭐️The foundation is a favorite for a fancy event. It is absolutely beautiful and looks like skin but better. I really covers my imperfections, but doesn’t look heavy or caky. SHADE 4.5

⭐️ I love this eyeshadow palette for just a pop of shimmer and color on the lid. It has 4 gorgeous shades and is so easy to use. PILLOW TALK

⭐️ This blush is absolutely stunning. Igives a dimensional flush to your cheeks that is just beautiful and vibrant. I comes in other shades as well and is refillable. FRENCH ROSÉ

⭐️ I have quickly become a fan of this line of lipsticks. Everything about them is GORGEOUS! This pop of pink is so pretty and perfect for any occasion.

HAIR GROWTH JOURNEY ➡️To SHOP all of my favor

HAIR GROWTH JOURNEY

➡️To SHOP all of my favorite hair products type the word HAIR into the comments.

One of the many joys of peri menopause is hair loss. I also color treat my hair and the constant heat styling, pulling it back, and wearing a sleep mask at night was causing breakage.
I have been using these 2 products diligently for the latest 3 months and I am so happy with the results that I am in this for the long haul!

It’s a marathon, not a spring when it come to hair growth so I am hoping for fabulous hair in the next year!
