Hi Risa! I'm 56 and really did not like lip liner at all until I found a clear one (by Maybelline)! Now, I even use it to keep lip oils, glosses, etc. from migrating. Game changer for my no fuss attitude!!

I'll be turning 50 in January and can attest to the fact that harsher blush will age you. I didn't realize it until I got so many comments about how much younger I looked one day. That evening I realized that I had tried a new blush that was a light pinky-peach color rather than the berry color I normally wear.

[@OriginalPinkbird]

Good point. A berry toned blush can look dated. I forgot about that.

[@louisesharpy]

Let me say this. When I turned 60, even 50’s rules changed for me. I’m 62. I’ll share my tips. Press and dab into skin it’s a must. No drag or pull. Powder use a dab or even finger under eyes. LESS IS MORE. I hardly wear foundation I don’t use around mouth or where wrinkles are just what’s left over-Blush is hard. Use , but lightly build and then blend into skin so no lines show, no heavy liner or like heavy black. USE highlighter, only a slight glow , (if you have pores or wrinkles ) also the dark sides of nose like heavy bronzer. Blending. Be light handed is the trick. Even now, I can’t wear as much as I did.

@Durelle820 A good tip on correcting is whatever you choose, should look okay if suddenly you were interrupted and couldn't finish your makeup. In other words, it would pass off as almost normal and you wouldn't look crazy.

As a hairstylist at 62 years old, I have lash extensions. I took them off for a month a year ago and many of my clients asked me what was wrong. I was fine , but they thought I was sick or sad. Put my lashes back on and they were happy! Lol so I need lashes to make my clients happy! I love your techniques and tips. I appreciate all your help.

[@deborahgrogan1919]

One of the best tips that you've touched on here (and in other videos) is that as we get older we should be going for a softer look. As a 64 yo I find using harsh colors and lines calls attention to the products, not my features. If I want to go for that "pop" or use the newest craze that's great - but I may need to modify the application techniques to achieve the end result I want. Thanks for helping us enhance our looks and making our outsides match our inner beauty Risa!

Risa, I’ve been wearing false lashes since my early 20s (I’m 47 now) and I LOVE to hear of your approach with your lash line to make them usable and non-overpowering for women of all ages!!! I am here for it!!! Go, queen!! 👑

I REALLY miss Prescriptives. Their custom blend powder and foundation were awesome. There was another company that custom blended lipsticks. They were inside Nordstrom but I can't remember their name. Prescriptives always had trouble with my custom blends, because my face is B/R and my neck is Y/O, so it was impossible for the foundation to blend in with my neck.

I just turned 70 years young in September and I appreciate all of these tips….even though I no longer wear makeup daily. I really appreciate the “lashes” segment at the end! I’ve never worn or even tried false lashes, but you made me want to give them a try, especially on the outer corner to help lift my hooded eyes. I would try this for special occasions and I am going to buy some inexpensive drug store ones, practice, and give them a try!! Thank you, Risa!! 😉

I’ve already made these changes to my routine. And the blush placement? Thank you for bringing that up! It’s important to always take your face shape into consideration. The corner lashes are less intimidating and more natural and comfortable. They really are all that’s needed.

[@anniej.4539]

I completely agree with the #2 tip using light foundation. When I use foundation that matches me perfectly, I look like a ghost. I usually go the next darker shade that matches me and then I use powder which usually lightens it. When I look too pale, bronzer doesn’t help me. I completely agree and glad you mentioned this!

[@maryannbrittingham3807]

I’m 62. I have always worn makeup and adjusted the application as my age and styles change. I just still even after seeing your wonderful video have no desire to use false lashes. I use my mascara and I’m happy with that. Also, I’d like to know do you think older women need to follow the bronzing and heavy contouring that seems to be popular? I don’t use bronzer I don’t care for the look. How do you feel about that?

[@julieligon8177]

Hi Risa. Thank you so much for this very helpful video. I learned some new things & others provided refresher info. I'm 66 & have been giving thought to false lashes. My lashes are not nearly as long & thick as they used to be & I really want to have that boost to my makeup routine! So, lashes will be purchased! Please, please do a tutorial on your eye look... it is absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for all you do for your viewers!!!

Thanks, Risa! I watch all your videos, but I always come away learning something!! I'm turning 70 (OMG...) in 1 week & I'm guilty of skipping the lip liner a lot. But I know that my lips are much more defined when I DO wear a liner. So, I'm going to make a conscious effort to get lining!!!! Thanks!!

[@sayuriisme9728]

Shoot I’m so glad you gave the blush advice! I’ve tried to apply it the way most influencers say to, for the mature woman that I am. I always still feel the urge to place it a bit lower on my face because I feel I need the color and the brightening to my complexion. Thank you Risa!

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

You’re welcome! 🥰 Some people just do look better with blush on the apples of the cheeks. Makeup is not one size fits all.

Influencers often post just to get comments. Generally speaking, with makeup it's not a one-size-fits-all approach. 🙂

Thank you Risa. I’m 54 & do, or don’t do about most of those things. I’m excited to try them. I know I also don’t blend enough. It takes so much time. I have too unsteady hands for lipliner, but use a good lip product that doesn’t move or come off or spread. Luckily someone talked me out of black eyeliner under my eyes years ago, but every other tip you gave I’ll try!! Hopefully I’ll have less cakeiness under my eyes. In all these lines!

[@deeleo2495]

I'm 59 and I'll have to admit I'm pretty impressed that I have already implemented most of your recommendations and it does make a difference! However, I am very intimidated by false eyelashes. My oldest sister has worn false eyelashes for years (the ones that are applied by a professional). She is 70 and has lost alot of her own lashes due to some of her own lashes coming out with the false ones. How can this this avoided? I am very interested in giving the corner lashes a try for special occasions. I have had issues with my own lashes for awhile due to autoimmune issues but have been able to grow them quite well with applying castor oil. Thanks for all of your videos!

[@lkachurek2003]

I used the foundation tip you gave right away of patting the brush on the back of the hand with the foundation and it made a really nice difference. Thank you!

[@SunandSweettea]

False lashes were a game changer. I still struggle to get them on but practice makes perfect. I don’t feel as if I need to wear as much makeup on my eyes when I wear false lashes. I have very hooded eyes and these made my eyes look open and brighter. Half lashes are a must!! They feel strange at first but I’m telling you that they make a huge difference! Thank you for the tips! My advice is to try the techniques. You just never know what you think until you try.

My favorite go to is mixing my cover girl ageless with my moisturizer. I blend with a kabuki brush and it’s a beautiful finish. I very lightly use a glowing powder under my eyes and top of cheekbones. I use a cream eyeshadow , and blend …best with my fingers. ( that’s my first makeup step.) Toned down really is my friend😮😅 I also use a green tinted primer to reduce redness. I also put Vaseline under my eyes and around crows feet on nights I want to focus on moisturizing..not on nights when I use an eye serum though.

One uses so much more foundation while using brush- no that the foundation reaches the face but it is left on the brush. Brushes no matter how much you clean them are full of bacteria. If you dab foundations with light application with your clean fingers, it works a lot better bcs when you was your hands before application the first few layers of skin cells where bacteria are sitting gets desquamated off. Same eith palates/trays and sponges.

At 70 with still oily skin, I am over foundation! I am tired of my oils bleeding through and giving me an unprofessional look. My new try is experimenting with tinted SPF and layering on a primer that is oil controlling. I am really pleased with Milani’s Erase Base with 2% salicylic acid. On top of that I put a little bit of concealer. It gives me a look of lighter make up and less oily skin at the end of the day, especially my cheeks and chin. I’m on a budget, so do not have access to the higher end foundations. So far so good. It’s good to break out of the box. There are not a lot of influencers my age with my Problem, but with improved skin care over the past three years, my pore size and skin clarity is much improved. Thank you for your great videos!

I am 68 and I just love makeup and I love applying makeup. I hear people say, “why do you wear makeup if you’re just staying home today?”… Because it makes me feel good and why not!!!! I have never tried false lashes because my husband would most likely tell me I look ridiculous with them on. I have always wanted to try them and I will. I don’t like how extensions look plus they’re very pricey. I love all your makeup tips. Thank you for this video♥️

I'm amazed an old Duck like me, is doing all your tips (except lashes) mine are still black & fairly long. Lots of love & keep us all up-to-date, from a small country town in Australia.

I have been using skin care products that brighten skin tone so I found my face and neck were visibly lighter. I match my foundation to my chest color and I then have an even skin tone all over.

I use one squirt of the lighter and one squirt of the darker and I get the perfect amount and match of foundation for me.
