Makeup for Mature Skin Over 40
This is my all time favorite mascara. It lengthens, thickens and separates without the clumps. I have been using this brand for years and I have tried many different mascaras over the years. It comes in waterproof as well which works really well.
L'ORÉAL Lash Paradise Mascara
I was hesitant to buy this at first because it cost a little more than I would usually spend BUT I am so glad that I did. This has just enough coverage to feel like you're wearing makeup but not too much where it's smothering in the summer. It also g...
Tinted SPF
I love this foundation and have been using it for quite some time. It is more of a matte look and I love how smooth it feels going on your skin. It layers well and I feel like it does pretty well maintaining it's look all day.
Simply Ageless + Olay 3-in-1 Liquid Foundation
I love this blush. So much pigmentation that it does not take much at all. It has a dewy/glowing look to it. One little dot is all it takes.
Revolution Beauty Superdewy Liquid Blush Burst
Another must in my daily makeup routine. Just a little bit will do and it adds a nice sparkly glow to your skin. I love it even more in the winter when my skin is feeling more dull.
Lumi Le Glass Glow Highlighter Stick - L'Oréal Paris
I love this shadow so much! It is liguid so you need to wait for it to dry but once it does it stays on ALL DAY. It does not transfer and it looks just as good as when you put it on in the morning. My favorite shade is Golden Goji. It makes my eyes s...
NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKE UP Ultimate Glow Shots
Skincare over 40
I have been using this facewash for over a decade. I have tried many others to compare and I continue to come back to this one because of my sensitive, acne prone skin. I have minimal breakouts (except before my period) because of this facewash. This...
Cerave Foaming Facial Cleanser for Normal to Oily Skin
Being someone that has very sensitive skin, I have to be very picky about my face lotion and sunscreen. This lotion is the perfect mix of both and works very well. It does not clog my pores or make me break out.
AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion SPF 50 - CeraVe | Ulta Beauty
With skin that is sensitive and acne prone I have to find a night cream that will not clog my pores but is also good enough to improve my skin and texture. This one worked really well for me.
PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion - CeraVe | Ulta Beauty
This is one of those creams I reach for when my skin needs serious hydration. It's a richer, heavier moisturizer, so I especially love it during the winter or when my skin is feeling dry. It leaves my skin looking noticeably plumper, more supple and ...
Hyalu B5 Suractivated Cream with Hyaluornic Acid
I LOVE this toner! I don't usually like a lot of toners because they tend to leave my skin feeling dry or stripped, but this one is completely different. It's gentle enough for my sensitive skin, doesn't dry me out, and I really do notice that my por...
Unscented Alcohol-Free Witch Hazel Facial Toner - Thayers | Ulta Beauty
I highly recommend bio oil for scars that you have, skin imperfections like sun spots, etc. I have been using it on my face at night and all over my body a few days a week.
My daughter fell off of her bike and hurt her face pretty bad, you can barel...
