PRO MUAs: These Makeup Mistakes Add YEARS to Your Face

[@maxinebaskerville6020]

I have been meaning to tell you this for a while. I Adore you. I adore your Christianity, I adore that you Share it, the way we are called to, and I appreciate SO very much all the wonderful knowledge you share in the way that you do. I have to say Thank you! One last thing I have to say is THANK YOU for is keeping your Fall decor in place and not jumping to Christmas. Proof You know the reason for the season. God bless you each and every day Zabrena. Great video as usual! :)

[@maureengreen617]

The reason for the season varies from person to person. It’s OK to put up the decor you like when you like.

[@asc.k1865]

To add to the beautiful Maxine's comment....the way you approach your Christian faith, Zabrena, inspires me. You embrace everyone in the makeup space. Everyone. You've never said a disparaging word about people in the LGBTQ+ community, AND! AND! I *love* that you allow your son to play in your makeup without judgy undertones. I wish more Christians approached their faith as you do....I might still be a Christian. I grew up attending church and was a church musician for awhile...seeing your videos makes me miss the better parts of Christian life. Love and blessings to you and all the other viewers out there 🖖❤️

Hi Zabera, I love that leopard print top. It looks gorgeous.

[@auntieliz930]

I learned a few tricks in beauty school that can save some money. If you love your normal foundation but want less coverage; mix it with some of your facial moisturizer to create your own tinted moisturizer. Depending on how you mix it, you can run full coverage into medium coverage to a tinted moisturizer. This way you can choose your coverage day to day.

Hello Zabrena, as a 45 year old woman who has been obsessed with makeup since the age of 9, I 100% agree with ALL of these points! It’s hard sometimes for people to make these changes as we are used to wearing makeup a certain way but the overall theme here is enhancing your natural beauty!

Agree, I found that as I age gracefully, less is more. Some things are more important for me at almost 60 with dry ski n. Essence, serums, moisturizer then my tinted spf. Sometimes cream shadow sticks (love Julep!) are just what I like for a little Xtra oomph!

[@SueHawkins6816]

Your cheetah/leopard print top is lovely with your hair. I remember years ago seeing one of Wayne Goss' videos and he discussed how blush placement can add years. He said that applying blush to the apple of the cheeks drags down the face. Apply blush along the cheekbone and blend upward.

[@specialk1627]

I have black hair and I’m almost 53! Instead of growing out, I’ve purchased 5 wigs, all in different colors and I am about to shave my head!

BTW you look absolutely stunning today and thank you for all the tips! ❤️ from Australia

Don't wear makeup to the doctor or hospital. Medical people can spot things by looking at your general appearance. This applies to labor and delivery too ladies, sorry.

[@thisis_fine]

This is GREAT advice, thank you! Never would have thought of this! 🤔

[@laurarenta6114]

Wish I could do that. Instead I hide my deathly appearance with the false glow of health. 😂

[@smittysmeee]

As a chronically ill person, I can confirm that this is excellent advice. For example, when I'm anemic, my lips completely disappear, and lipstick (though very badly needed) would hide the fact that I ought to have a blood test. So don't doll it up for your yearly physicals! You might be hiding low key liver problems or a thyroid issue and not even know it.

Im in my 50s,and those dark reds/berry lipsticks I loved so much not only age me, but take any color out of my face :( I also learned that the corners of our mouth start to turn down, so when applying lip products avoid the very corners of our mouth.

[@Jade10122]

My routines have changed a lot over my 51 years. A lot of these are so true. The first one I can point to: eyebrows. You are 110% correct. Dark brows age you. I switched to a shade that was 2 shades lighter and it instantly softened my look. Blush is another. I used to forgo it in my 20’s but not now. I contour lightly, blush in the apples and then highlight. Ties the face together. My other fix: thick dark eyeliner. I softened and thinned the upper lash line and quit using it on my waterline and lower. It made me look way younger.

[@michellestratford9753]

I always love the way you match your foundation to your beautiful complexion! I'm as pale and also a redhead, but it seems that even when I think I've matched, my base always looks orange y! Thank you for the great tips!! 💖❤️

[@pajamamama5965]

Great tips! I have oily skin and I powder my whole face because I find that my powder blushes and powdered bronzers just blend more naturally that way and don't stick patchy to the foundation. The key is to shave the peach fuzz first of all and secondly get a setting powder that's a good shade match to the foundation. Afterward use a great setting spray to emulsify everything and it will dry down and not look too mattified or dusty. I know these are extra steps but they do make a huge difference and make up looking professional and like natural skin

[@Alex-tk7gh]

One thing that I've come to realize at 41 years old is that stark, defined lines do not look good me anymore. I love Rimmel glosses and tinted balms for lips. My makeup routine changed a lot over the last couple years and coincidentally, I adopted a lot of the tips you mention. I wear less makeup now than I did in my 20s and I feel that it looks so much better. I don't line the lower lash line or put mascara, just the top lashes. Lately I use eyeshadow to line my top lash and I'm loving that look. Also, lots of KZbinrs seem to be obcessed with too much blush. Blush is supposed to brighten your face naturally. Too much will age you, no matter how much some of these girls say otherwise.

[@SirenaSpades]

I'm glad you enjoy lip glosses, I've always wanted to enjoy them, I love the look but they drive me crazy because my long hair always seems to blow into them and sticks. Drives me nuts!! So it's a no-go.

[@jenn8179]

I also skip liner and mascara on my bottom lashes. It just looks awful on me. I'll try it now and again just because it seems like EVERYONE does it...but...nope, it's not ever going to work on my eyes 😁

[@Alex-tk7gh]

@@SirenaSpades it really does depend on the formula. I love Rimmel glosses because it's a very thin, not sticky at all formula. And they give the most beautiful look. Unfortunately something is going on with the brand because Walmart is discontinuing it.

[@Patti-1962]

I was excited to see you using the Wet n Wild tinted hydrator. My hack is to mix in a drop of the NYX Bare With Me concealer with this product to get the fair shade light enough. This extra coverage makes such a lovely look, and I don't need to use concealer. I have also switched to brown eyeliner (I use eyeshadow most of the time) and mascara.... with just a hint of color under the eye. Lately, I have just been applying blush that has a slight shimmer and no bronzer. it just looks so fresh on my mature skin! (at 60!)

Thank you for making your videos and God bless you :) ❤❤

[@scarletleigh7273]

I feel like everyone knows this by now, but just overdarkening yourself with makeup does age you. I mean too dark of a foundation, or too much bronzer - juat trying to mimick a tan with makeup(or self tanner) and overdoing it. Especially if it pulls orange. Also clumpy lashes, idk why, I always associate this with those old ladies with garish makeup so anyone with really clumpy lashes looks older to me

[@TaraTorri]

I switched over a year ago to brown eyeliner and it softened my looks a lot. I only do on the top though.

[@HoneybThings]

For me, dark eyeshadow ages me. I stopped for the most part. My eyes are small, so adding darker colors makes them look smaller. So I always use lighter brighter colors for my eyes. Unless I want a darker Smokey or Grundge look. But 8 out of ten times I keep it light.

[@BadgerSpirit5477]

You are such a love. I so enjoy watching your videos. Your tutorials have helped me. Thank you. Plus your tips come in really handy. I'm now 60 years old and had been shying away from makeup. I'm now back to being adventurous. I've gotten several compliments. It feels good. I sure don't feel 60, but the again I've never been 60 before so I'm not sure how it's supposed to feel. LOL 🤣🤣

[@mimib2152]

I'm right there with you Debbie. I just turned 59 and went thru some heart surgery complications recently. Had been going out of the house "without my face on" which I had never done before. And I've been wearing makeup since I was 13. For the past few months I've been watching tutorials for women over 55. Even though Zabrena is not a mature woman she addresses our mature issues beautifully. And I just love how Zabrena talks about things that e all deal with and gives a solution

[@hegetv2111]

I'm certainly guilty of using too much powder. Not so much now though, but I tend to get very oily in the t-zone, so I need to powder that part of my face. Still, sometimes I find it's a bit hard to find the right balance. Also, I used to wear too heavy foundation. The last couple of years I mostly use the Purito BB cream, and it makes my skin looks so good and natural, never too made up. I also used to go to bed sometimes with makeup when my children were little. Now I am very strict when it comes to my skin care routine, so I always double cleanse, and put on actives and moisturizer before bed. It's easier when you get to have a little more "me-time". Thanks for all the great tips. ❤️

[@simoneclarke5104]

I am guilty of dark bold brows, I just love them. I will however give a lighter shade of brown a try as hard as it will be for me and see if I notice a more youthful appearance. Loved the tips, thank you🥰

[@bueno07]

I don't used eye shadow primer because I kinda like the faded worn in look of eyeshadow after a couple of hours 🤷🏻‍♀️ and also my eyelids are not oily anymore so I feel like I really don't have a problem with my eyeshadow staying put when I apply a more intense eye look.

[@selah6335]

Keep a packet of makeup remover wipes in your nightstand because you'll always have time to wipe a bit before you pass out. I find setting my concealer ages me. I remove excess concealer directly below my lower lashes with the tip of a makeup sponge. Works like a charm. Thanks for the tips! And your blouse is beautiful!

The lighter eyebrow color is a game changer! 👏 Another one to be careful of is medium-dark lip shades. Some ladies can really rock a deep red or plum and still look youthful, but on me, darker lipsticks are very aging.

I do a lot f ostage work so we slap on the foundation, LOL!!! You are absolutely right, Zabrean --- What makes most women over say 40 to 50 (sorry to say) look older and more haggard is lining under the eyes. It closes the eyes, as you said. I never thought of a nude undereye color. Far out. Neverthought about people in paintings wearing blush. But then I'm colorblind, LOL!!!

OMG, I'm guilty of a FULL cover matte and powder face! I'm 47 and recently I got rid of my heavy foundations and went shopping for 2 different medium/light coverage foundations meant for dry skin. I haven't worn concealer under my eyes for years, but have just started by using it ONLY to brighten the under eyes. Just with these few changes I already look 15 years younger! Oh I also lightly powder my T-zone with a mineral powder. I also don't use heavy eye shadow/liner under my eyes. I have extremely hooded eyes & have been using primers/dry concealers for years as a base for my shadows. I use only mascara and sometimes a highlighting liner. I also put my blush in an upwards angle and only bring a tint of colour forward. If I use a matte blush I put a topper over it. I still have very full lips & only use coordinating liners for special occasions. One thing that's REALLY helped is getting rid of ALL my liquid & matte lipsticks. I now only use crème, pearl, and balmy lipsticks. Oh and LOTS of lightweight glosses! As for sleeping with makeup... if it's been a looong day, I at least use a baby wipe to get most off. Then I immediately do a thorough cleanse in the morning & change my pillowcase. When I do have my nighttime routine I use 1 type of make up remover, then a 2nd type to pull even more off. Once I clean my face I use witchhazel and then a retinol cream. I make sure to apply the cream on my face, neck, chest and hands.

[@threearrows2248]

I'm like a year younger than you, on my 6th pregnancy with a 1 yr old who doesn't sleep, and I'm feeling my age 😩 I never really wore makeup but these circles under my eyes need help! I swear by liquid and cream products, for example the Pixi liquid blush in the little squeeze tube brings life and dewiness in the most beautiful, natural way. And I started using the L'Oreal balm foundation (tinted balm I think it's called?) and it's just SO NATURAL LOOKING! Definitely a your-skin-but-better product that brightens all day. And let's not forget skin care - it's the MOST important part of the process. Vitamin C and Vichy's mineral 89 are my life! I think trying to stay as natural as possible is so important to not age ourselves more than necessary. Thank you Z for your awesome videos 🤗

[@justgena33]

Hi Zabrena- One thing that Ive noticed that ages women is not changing the formulas/colors and the application when we get older. I think a lot of women do their makeup the way they learned as a young person and at a time in their lives when they were the happiest. Less is more. Love from NYC, Merry Christmas to you and the whole family xog

[@jbbb7418]

Wearing makeup to bed destroys your skin over time, it is sooo bad! We have all done it generally because of sheer exhaustion, but it is the worst. Forget all those serums they are useless if you sleep in your makeup regularly. I remember years ago someone saying, the skin you have up to your thirties is the skin you were born with, the skin you have after your thirties is the skin you deserve. Either sun, dehydration, etc, it all builds up over time. Take care of that face it is gorgeous ladies ❤️❤️❤️

I have things to say: amount of foundation depends upon how clear your skin is, when you have large areas of dispigmentation spot concealing won't work. I'll always go back to wearing black kajal under the eyes don't care how many times white people tell me it looks bad, black liner makes the eye prominent, brown people don't have colored eyes so we need other measures to draw attention to the eyes. I have very dark eye brows, they thin but without gaps, if i use a pencil even slightly lighter its looks so obvious that i have makeup on them. Makeup is so subjective and ageing is a privilege, about time we embrace age and change the tide

It actually makes eyes look smaller with all that black liner 🤮 Racoon eyes hides the beauty of the eyes rather than accentuating them

[@laurarenta6114]

Black creates contrast and can help shape the eye. I think what makes it or breaks it is how harsh the lining is and whether you encircle the entire eye. I’m also not sure what the “big eye” obsession is all about. Some people of course have small eyes, but if you proportional eye size for your facial features you shouldn’t be scared of some black imo.

Hi Zabrena whilst I am still that rock chick biker at 50, my makeup has become a lot softer as I have aged. I was the queen of a smokey eye lol, but lighter/softer shades look a lot better on my now hooded eyes. I also stopped wearing too nude of a lip shade and something similar to my own lip colour (or just a bit darker/rosier) is much more flattering. I'm still the whitest shade of pale skin (with grey eyes and blonde hair), so blush is a must have - otherwise I look very goth (fine to do the goth thing as a teen, but oh dear not nowadays). The other thing is to pay attention to your undertone - I'm extremely cool toned and anything very warm toned can make me look a bit ill/sickly. It seems to make my skin look dull and just looks off on me. Whereas taupe and soft greys look very neutral on me, so called "neutrals" (which are really warmer beiges, tans, browns etc) don't look as good. Don't be frightened of colour, but perhaps a more subtle pop of colourful eyeliner can be more flattering than a very brightly coloured eyeshadow look for during the day on paler skin. Deeper shades of skin look amazing in bright colours day or night however. Just a few of my tips on transitioning into my older skin. Best wishes.

I agree! I recently had a color analysis done and it was life changing. I am also cool toned so pink blush and berry lips pop on my skin tone.

I swear by Laura Geller Balance N Brighten foundation it gives me perfect coverage every time on my out the door days.

Would you consider doing the cold girl make up?

Don't forget moisturizer and SPF! I have to wear mascara, otherwise, I look like I'm sick. And yes, I've been guilty of sleeping without washing my face. Some days are just, well, you know.

I hate black eyeliner and powder. Looooove blush! I am good! I have found less makeup does look more youthful as I get older. I also don’t put anything on the lower lash line. I find it looks more youthful.

not wearing the right color of foundation with the right undertone. You will just look like you are very tired and old. Understanding your undertone will be a game changer! This would be a good subject to discuss!

Sleeping with makeup on…I’m super guilty of this. I am trying to break the habit and now at 45, I notice my skin is super dry if I do so I am working on breaking this!!

Try getting a really delicious feeling nighttime routine - a rich cleansing balm, a second wash, a nourishing essence and maybe a vitamin c or really moisturizing serum (vichy's mineral 89 hyaluronic serum feels SO GOOD) and then see what your skin looks like when you wake up - the glowing skin will make you hooked on pampering your skin before bed, and you'll never skip it!

When people wear makeup styles from previous decades... really aging. Also, as you mentioned, too much is not enhancing. Lovely to see you again this week!

[@lisamurcer5950]

Not cleaning your brushes regularly and your sponges or not replacing them sooner! Bacteria just aides in more breakouts, eye infections. Also, throwing out older expired makeup! Just asking for skin issues. Happy Holiday Z! I ❤️ your shows. Wish you could do more? But, family comes first!

[@jewelsbarbie]

Do you have a brush cleaner that you recommend? Thank u! 😊

Eye liner that ends or even dips down at the end of the upper lid makes eyes look smaller and droopy. Always add a wing, even a tiny flick up. If over 40-ish, avoid black liner as it looks harsh. Use brown/black, charcoal, or brown. Same with mascara.

[@Crystalsmakeuppanningjourney]

Powder does help to keep makeup on though. I have to have it on.

[@staceyrybka5496]

I love these tips girl preach I am guilty of falling asleep with makeup on 😂 I have darker hair lately I’ve been staying away from darker brows idk but Burt an Earnie come to mind lol 😂 I use concealer on my eyes 👀 instead of primer I find to like that better I love my blush but I feel like there are days I don’t need contour or bronzer on my cheeks thanks girl love ya bunches ❤

[@katkalocova]

My tip is not putting eyeshadow or mascara on my lower eye lid. You've mentioned it, too, on the channel, it does open the eye up and definitely takes a few years off. The only exception would be a night out look.

[@Alex-tk7gh]

I stopped doing this a good while back and I too feel that it makes me look more youthful. I used to apply mascara on the lower lid throughout my 20s and it just doesn't look good anymore.

[@s.peters2140]

What lip liner and lip gloss do you use in this video?

[@vix4x41]

Maybe I just haven’t found my right shade, but red lipstick is terribly aging on me!

[@rosanilebron1566]

Now that I'm in my 50s, if I'm wearing foundation, applying primer is doing something great for my skin. I barely use makeup, but when I do I have noticed that a light foundation is the best for my skin. Face primer evens the texture and the foundation stays longer and looks more natural.

I look very young for age. It's good genes and I take care of my skin. Ppl think I'm lying when I say my age. I have changed how I do my makeup. I like light weight foundations that will still cover my freckles on my cheeks. I know ppl like freckles but I never have. That's why I always loved makeup. I could cover those freckles up. I like to use the it cosmetic concealer just in the inner part of my eye close to bottom lash line too. I find it gives me a youthful look.
