18 Fashion & Makeup Mistakes That Age You

[SilverLady(SO)]

Interesting article . . .

"Your choice of clothing and cosmetics can highlight your sense of style, compliment your best features, and keep you looking fresh and full of life. But sometimes these decisions can backfire: an ill-fitting dress that stretches and sags in all the wrong places, or a shade of makeup that accentuates fine lines and wrinkles. Women don't always update their fashion and beauty routines as they get older, says Los Angeles-based celebrity makeup artist Jan Ping, but they should; otherwise, the same products and pieces that once worked so well for them could suddenly give away their real age-or worse, make them look even older than they really are. Here are 18 common beauty blunders, and anti-aging advice from the pros on how to fix them."

Hi,

Being around women allmost all the time, i see lots, and makup for most is ether so little you dont see it or none at all. okay so this is aimed at women = female. what makeup do you wear or have used,

I find younger women are the ones to wear makeup a lot more, to my way of thinking why do they most i know and talk to look so much better with none, they have lovely complecton and beautyfull skin,

One young lass asked me do i have makeup on , i said no none at all so she looked harder at me close up and said wow you have lovely skin yes i do and for my age 66 she was surprised, oh yes the age she did not belive me,

Older women dont belive me ether, all i do is cream on in the morning and if im going out eyebrow liner only because i was burnt right side of my face, and now i have no eye brows none.....

the lippy is not a red or dark colour i dont like it so its lighter and suits me. darker pinks or close to,

so as iv nothing to hide, or cover up well no hair ether, im doing well. very few lines and im not bothered with those, plus i have olive skin,

Now i'v not said to any one at all about this, i have noted a change in my facial features, over the last few month's and some lovely neat changes have been taking place, as youll know my body has changed because of my hormones well my facial features have been becoming more feminine and has taken place over 20 years, more so the last 10, now had i said this else where i would be rubbished and told it cant happen, so there you go,

As a disclaimer thing'e what ever , im not blind or blinded to i wont to look beautyfull, type pink fog wishing i was , this is just a fact of how my body works and is working,

so makeup and me ..... na.....dont need it, hey i wonder what it would be like to be ,,,,,oh dear beautyfull....... Hmmmm

Good article SL! Sound advice for either gender, (assuming just two). Many women wear comfy clothing doing every day errands and look sloppy. The opposite is for many dressers to dress as the hot young thing they wish they were. Which, I'm sure, has been discussed many times before.
