Beauty Over 50 - New (to me) Drugstore Try-on

Get ready with me as I try some new drugstore makeup - new to me!
Wear Notes:
Foundation: This looked better after the oils in my skin combined with it. It did break apart so it's not a long-wearing foundation. It felt very light on me.
Concealer: This finally stopped creasing. It wasn't long-wearing
Mascara: This did flake a bit by the end of the day
Bronzer: This was too light for me so it was hard to tell if it lasted all day.
Blush: This did last all day, but I felt it was patchy
Eyeshadow (all over color): This last all day, but I felt it looked crepey
Eyeshadow (shimmer color): By the end of the day only the glitter was showing. The color was gone.
Brow Powder: This lasted all day - it's a winner

I really find your videos refreshing :)

[@phyllistallent4149]

I can’t believe you’re criticized for saying SPF. 😂 Good grief. But you know how to shake it off. ❤ your videos.

[@MindfulMidlife]

Ha ha! You’d be amazed what I get yelled at for. It just comes with the territory of being on KZbin. You have to grow thick skin. Honestly most of my comments are very kind and uplifting, so I just ignore the negative Nellies. Thanks Phyllis!

[@chrissybacon8430]

@Flower Relax.

[@debrapavlica6772]

Last summer everyone was using powder under their foundation as a technique to get their foundation to last longer!😊

[@manuelagraca1209]

Great channel, and you are so REAL!!! We are about the same age and have very similar concerns and your tips have helped tremendously. I love the classy makeup looks you show on your channel.❤

[@MindfulMidlife]

I’m so glad it has been helpful Manuela! 💕

[@alicebrown2007]

Also putting powder on first fills those places that need it and gives a smoother finish ,

[@mickiseymour]

I answer you back. And yes, I vote fir SPF. Love your videos

[@Suetube2525]

I def have mascara brush preferences! I keep brushes/wands I like. Wash them out and use them with mascara formulas I like that have brushes I hate. I leave the “hated” brush in it’s tube (because it fits it’s tube). I just take the “liked”brush I’ve kept and twirl/brush/ tap it on the “hated” brush to load it and put on mascara I like with a wand I like 😊

[@pattiadkins2736]

Can you try the Avon makeup, please? I would like to know what you think.

[@HollyM3]

Would love to see the foundation in a shade darker on you - it has a pretty radiance

[@ambergerhelper7852]

Your natural skin is so flawless. I’m a little jealous (I have rosacea- it looks like chemical burns), but also happy for you! ☺️

[@MindfulMidlife]

Thank you! I do know how that is! My rosacea used to be much worse.

[@estherpatterson6452]

U have the prettiest blue eyes!

[@Pamela-B]

Hi Bobbie…Maybe try the spoolie to apply the new mascara since you like the formula but not the brush? I’ve done that before. Not ideal, but it works pretty well.

[@MindfulMidlife]

That’s a good idea Pamela. When you’re stuck with a mascara that you don’t like because of the brush, at least this way you could keep using it.

[@Pamela-B]

@@MindfulMidlife Absolutely…at least get some use out of it.

[@donnamcdermott443]

Great video can't wait to hear how you get on with the product in the future

[@tammyshank8397]

Your skin is beautiful Bobbi & the mascara looks nice!

[@MyCleverHandle]

Hey Bobbie! Love the tip about the "disposable" spoolies. I've always kept one or two applicators from old mascaras (well-washed, of course) around bc they're just so helpful for fixing oopsies! And I use "disposable" spongetip applicators too for shimmer and sparkle eyeshadows; somehow, getting the colors exactly where I want them just isn't possible with my fingertips and is way too messy! So thanks for this video. I like that lippie - I think I need it!

[@karenover50]

Love your videos!!! How do you wash the spookiest? Does it get the wax out? 💗your skin looks gorgeous!! Sorry should have watched to end!!

[@kathyabeauty]

I always get such a giggle over your antics with makeup. The powder before foundation thing is from Wayne Goss and Mrs MelissaM stating it makes your foundation set well. The No 7 powder, the new one in the white packaging is the same formula, so its OK to use up your old one and replace it with the new. Lol @ "goobers"! I thought my friends in school were the only ones who said that. 😊

[@MindfulMidlife]

I'm pretty sure I'd hate powder "before" on my dry skin, but I could see how that would be great for oily skin. Thanks Kathy!

[@quiltingmell]

Awesome video, 😊

[@LenaSheppard]

The blush is so, so pretty on you. I like the pf mineral powder. Thank you so much for being with us ! Hi Mrs. Betty 👋! The ice is mostly gone on the Yukon River & people are out logging for winter firewood. Be well! Happy summer!

[@MindfulMidlife]

Hi Lena! Thank you, I’ve tried the blush a couple times since filming this video and I think I actually do like it but I need to have more powder under it so it’s not patchy.

[@debrapavlica6772]

Please your skin looks beautiful!

[@lucindaspoerner9935]

I would love to see you use the brow stencils...the larger brow might look great on you!

[@debrapavlica6772]

I envy you I have to wear glass all the time! I was ok until I started knitting with toothpick size needles and pearl cotton thread, counting the seed beads I transferred to the thread! I hate not being able to see!

[@calisun3652]

Thanks Bobbie. Love your videos, reviews, product listings and I love to “answer you back😂”. Have a great weekend ❤

[@soylataylor8799]

How do you wash the little sponge/puff you used for your under eyes? Also, can you do a 360 of your hair? Or what do you ask for when you get your hair cut?

[@genevajohnson5228]

I love your videos! I hope you take this as a compliment as that it what it is meant to be; You are so like a normal person talking to your girlfriends in your video!!❤

[@MindfulMidlife]

That's so sweet! Thank you Geneva!

[@gingerrobbins8743]

You are so funny when things aren't going exactly the way you want! Yes, we do talk back and answer your questions about how things look, but sadly you can't hear us!😀 Imagine how much easier you videos, would be to make, if you could hear us!😂 Have a great day, look forward to seeing you again soon!💋❤

[@MindfulMidlife]

I'd love to hear you all (ok, most of you 😂 ).

[@brooklynleighhh]

I’m 29 so not quite “mature” skin yet, but subscribed!!

[@k.popper2620]

That Haley foundation brush is perfection! I love it! I tried that concealer and it was a no go for me. Under my eyes and right in the corner of my eyes are my problem areas :-( I really struggle with concealers in general! Thanks for another really good, relatable video!!!

[@traciseibert4532]

Where does she get the brush?

[@MindfulMidlife]

It’s linked in my description. It’s from Amazon.

[@MindfulMidlife]

Agreed! I’ve used it several times since this video and I’m really liking it a lot. I struggle with concealers as well.

[@traciseibert4532]

You look great!

[@estherpatterson6452]

U can use ur new double sided spoolie instead of the mascara wand. See if that does better.

[@MindfulMidlife]

A few have suggested that - it's good idea!

[@Rebecca-creates]

Bobbie, you are just a joy to watch!

[@deejohnson827]

Yes, Bobbie, I saw it all! 😅 You look great here. Happy Memorial Day weekend!

[@deborahgrogan1919]

Interesting approach to your brows (powder last). I'm a 64 yo with thinning and greying brows. I start with my powder (Palladio in Soft Brown - Amazon) to give a base, then a gel (the kind with a tiny mascara style wand) to set the hairs and define them more, and then use a brow pencil for any areas which are still sparse - brushing between each step. I end up with an extremely natural look! I'm going to try the method you outlined to see how it compares. Thanks for the idea Bobbie!!

[@MindfulMidlife]

Isn’t it funny how we all do a different approach to our make up? Maybe I’ll try your way and see if it works better. I’m always open to new ways of doing it. Thanks Deborah!

[@deborahgrogan1919]

@@MindfulMidlife - love your channel Bobbie! Thanks for being so approachable!!

[@dianehiltz1193]

If I purchase a mascara and l love the wand, once the mascara is gone I hold on to the wand and use it for other mascaras😁

[@itsacarolbthing5221]

What a good idea! I've never thought of doing that.

[@MindfulMidlife]

Good idea - do you clean it off before using it with the next one?

[@dianehiltz1193]

@@MindfulMidlife I do. I don’t want to contaminate a new mascara with and old one, plus I like a fresh start with a clean wand😉

[@Lorrieonline]

I love your channel! It's like splurging without splurging, a day at the spa. Hah, you know how opinions are; everyone's got 'em, lol.

[@MindfulMidlife]

What a nice complement! thank you! 💕

[@smilodon87]

Totally love your realism. (I'm 53 - at our age one needs humour when doing beauty.) I have the wet-n-wild matte eye pencil in lilac and I love it. That mascara brush scares me. I do like the essence princess mascaras.

[@MindfulMidlife]

I love the essence mascara’s as well. My favorite is the waterproof. The brush on that one is perfect for my smaller, hooded eyes.

[@destiny7629]

Hey there Bobbie! I was just wondering if you've tried any of the other lip oil colors from Beauty Pie, I was looking at the spicy pink and the plum naked, do you like any of the other colors?

[@azjersee]

SPF yes!

[@MindfulMidlife]

You are my people, Mary! 🙌

[@martimar7181]

The blush is beautiful on you. Sign me up for Shortbread. ☺️ I did not see the patchiness on you. 😉

[@lisaharr1477]

The look you achieved is very natural and fresh and pretty ! I think the eyeshadow needs more color though, they barely show up at all. I have the same Real Technique eyeshadow brushes and I LOVE them too !!! I really want a 2nd set but have never seen them anywhere ! It’s a bummer 😰😰😰

[@MindfulMidlife]

I agree Lisa. Maybe if I wasn’t self tanned, it would show up more but it’s just too much work. Real techniques needs to make those brushes again because they’re so good. Ha ha, maybe they’ll watch my video. LOL!

[@lisaharr1477]

@@MindfulMidlife I hope the do watch !!! They have been my favorite brushes since I got them ! Come on Real Techniques !! Bring them back ! Bring them back !! 😂😂😂😂

[@pajamamama5965]

Great video! I just started using a brow powder and I love how it turns out. you're right! I use that physician's formula SPF30 powder. It actually has a lot of coverage like a powder foundation. I use it on its own over moisturizer. I use a dense powder brush and a lot of the powder to pack it on. It's Light coverage but I use it when I'm in a hurry And don't have time to do a full face of makeup or wait for sunscreen to dry down. It doesn't look great upon 1st application but it absorbs oils amazingly and looks better as the day goes on. Amazon sells it a lot cheaper. It's not great under the eyes, So I use concealer and my typical under eye setting powder there. I hope that helps

[@traciseibert4532]

I've used brow powder for years. Merle Norman

[@MindfulMidlife]

I’ll give it a go over my moisturizer. I normally don’t try that look but once in a while I just need a little bit more but I still want to have a no make up look.

[@pajamamama5965]

@@MindfulMidlife I hope it works for you. I think of that as a powder SPF, So you really have to pack it on and not use your typical dusting like you would a setting powder. I save it for times when I have to get up early morning say if I was gonna take the car to get it dropped off and the morning sunlight might hit my skin on the drive. I have also used it later in the day over my makeup If I want additional SPF when going out into the Hot sun. My favorite part is how long it lasts on my skin. I usually have to use an oil cleanser to get it off

[@tinasmith4301]

I use Physicians Formula SPF 30 powder as my foundation over sunscreen. Still need concealer under eyes and to cover dark spots, but like it pretty well. Would be willing to try other foundations, but very few have SPF.

[@alycew.787]

I just finished watching a very popular KZbinr who referred to sunscreen as SPF multiple times in her video, and not a single person corrected her in the comments. Bobbie I guess you are just blessed with more “helpful” viewers. 😂

[@MindfulMidlife]

I know...I even had another person tell me (in this video) that I was "JUST WRONG" for calling it that. Good grief! 🤦‍♀️

[@debbiewalker273]

Hi Bobbie, I was thinking of trying the FB Concealer, but maybe I’ll pass. Most concealers settle in my lines too. I do love the FB Light Illusion Perfecting Powder & just ordered the FB Powder Blush to try out. That spoolie brush really worked well. I keep forgetting I have some, but I also have a lash comb that I use if I get clumps occasionally. I need to stick to waterproof mascara to keep the curl in my lashes. I’m done trying the regular mascara’s that claim to hold a curl. Not on my lashes ! 🤣😂 I’m still on the hunt for a liquid foundation that works for me, but think I may be a confirmed powder foundation girl for life ! Plus, I live in the Las Vegas area, and in the summer months it would melt off pretty quick. 🥵 Have a nice Memorial Day ! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@MindfulMidlife]

Hey, If it works, stick with it! I haven't met a regular mascara that keeps my curl yet! 🤷‍♀️

No, but I put make up on most days because I’m testing it for videos. If I’m not testing, anything new and I just wanna look good for the day I’ll just put on a brow pencil and mascara and I’m done.

Technically your sunscreen has SPF- sun protection factor. Pretty look for you, though I bet your first take of this video would have been fine!

It’s not so much about being sunburn but way more about the damage the UV rays have on our skin when it’s exposed daily. It ages us faster.

[@donnamcdermott443]

They mostly say SPF on the bottle lol 😂 you don't need to diguise your bump you are absolutely stunning with it and it's what makes everyones faces different otherwise we would all be the same it's not out of proportion to your face and I would not have even noticed if you hadn't mentioned your beautiful eyes and great skin are the things people will see no one is looking at your bump I promise 🥰
