APPLICATION OF AGE 'APPROPRIATE' MAKE UP

Just as fashion trends has a knack with age, there are certain types of make up that are geared towards specific age groups- kids, teens, adults, elderly.  The common mistake is application of make up that is not age appropriate.

For example, make up with glitter isn't suitable for older women. Loud colours are not suitable for wrinkled skin. For older women, matte shades with warm and neutral tones are best to achieve a youthful look. Similarly,  teenage and young adults should avoid slathering on too much make up because it can make them look much older (I feel attacked, LOL).

As tempting as it may be to try different make up trends, keep in mind that these trends are usually intended for younger women and teenage girls. It's not advisable to experiment on older women with these trends.

Whatever you do, make sure your make up routine is appropriate for your age or it's going to be disastrous.
