Twenties: form 20 to 29. During this period of time every female is in the bloom of her womanhood, this is why it is important that the makeup would serve as a reflection of that. It is much preferable to go light on the foundation, and try to have the colors, applied for the eyes, matched with the eyes’ natural color, as well as with the skin tone and the mood a woman is in. When going to work, it is advisable to have the makeup toned down with the help of some light powder blush and some lightly tinted lipstick application. As for the evening events, such as some party, a date or a night out with friends, it is quite possible to apply brighter colors of makeup.

Thirties: from 30 to 39. This is the very period of time, when all these telltale signs of aging, such as crows’ feet, fine lines begin to get revealed. And it is now when the palette of the makeup should be toned down. Therefore, it should also be noted, that this is also the period of time, when it is possible to go a little on the heavy side with the foundation. As for blushers, they should be applied in somewhat more muted colors. It is also extremely important to try to avoid applying frosted makeup, because this may keep the attention on all these small wrinkles and fine lines.

Forties: from 40 to 49. This is the very period of time, when all these signs of age become more and more apparent with every passing year. And it is now when a woman is strongly advised to begin to wear makeup, which would be kind to her skin. In case of a dry skin (this sometimes happens, even if the skin was not dry before), an oil – based foundation should be better applied, and it is also possible to put somewhat lighter base over the wrinkles of the face, in case if there are any. A woman in her forties should also begin to apply concealer creams more generously over the dark spots and dark circles, and steer clear from frosted or metallic eye shadow, especially if the eyes are puffy. As for the blush color, somewhat softer colors should better be applied.

Fifties and above: from 50 and more. This is the period of time, when every woman should begin letting herself age in a graceful way. However, it is extremely necessary to be as kind to the face skin as possible, and all matte – based makeup should be avoided. Women in their fifties should not apply any frosty, shiny and / or metallic colors of eye shadows, simply because they have a tendency to highlight the puffiness of the eyes, as well as wrinkles around the eyes. As for the lipstick, light colors of it are preferable, and it is not appropriate to try to use any bright blue or red colors.
