Hey, friends. My name is Lisa Jauregui and today I'm going to be showing you my go to look for mature skin. I just turned 42 and I love products that give my skin a healthy, youthful, radiant glow. I'm going to be using all products from L'Oréal Paris. Let's get started. We're going to start the application with the L'Oréal Paris Lumi Le Glow Skin Tint and I'm going to go in with the shade 200 neutral. So what I love about this product is just how hydrating and lightweight this product is. It has reflective pearls, so it's going to give the most beautiful lit from within glow to the skin. It's going to just look like your skin is glowing from within. It has reflective pearls in it, blurring pigment, so it's going to give a very soft focus effect to the skin. It is absolutely beautiful. I'm using a brush to apply it, but honestly this product is so lightweight you can really apply this with your fingers. It's a very beautiful, breathable coverage. It's like your skin but better. It's going to do a great job of evening the skin tone out but not looking like you have a lot of makeup on the skin. It's so beautiful. It just gives this healthy, vibrant glow to the skin. And I'm going to apply this all over. I like to start in the center of my face because that's where I tend to have or need the most coverage. So that's where the sun hits my face, and that's where I might have the most discoloration or age spots, sun damage. So where I start is where I'll apply the most product and then I like to shear out and just blend whatever's left out to the perimeter of the face. I'm gonna go back and just use a tiny bit more, and I'm going to spread this on the forehead. Look how beautiful that is. It's so beautiful. I love this product on its own. With a little bit of concealer you'll really find that this will likely give you the coverage and the evening that you need. But you could also mix this with a concealer, or mix it with a foundation that has more coverage, if you want a little bit of a heavier coverage, one that's a very flexible product. Oh. It's so beautiful. My goodness. So when you're dealing with mature skin, it's really important to find products that are hydrating and lightweight because you need to add moisture to the skin. The skin can tend to be a little bit drier. There's also a little bit more texture on the skin. So you want products that are lightweight and that don't magnify texture. Oh my goodness, this is stunning. So beautiful. And this shade is a perfect match. Now to cover and conceal underneath the eyes. This is a product that I never skip, and that is concealer. I'm going to be using the True Match Radiant Serum concealer and I'm going in with the shade C3, which is light medium. So this concealer has two ingredients that I love in my under-eye products. That's hyaluronic acid, so that's designed to really help attract moisture to the skin. The skin underneath our eyes is more delicate, it also tends to be the place that we show the first signs of aging: expression lines, fine lines, wrinkles. And it also can be the driest skin on the face. So I love that this concealer has hyaluronic acid. It also has caffeine in it, which is really great for visibly depuffing underneath the eyes. If you think about what caffeine does to the body, it wakes us up, it also does that to the skin. So really great ingredients to find in your concealer. Now I like to put a little concealer in the inner corner and a little bit in the outer corner. I love this concealer. It's also fragrance free and very lightweight. When you are looking for concealer especially, find a concealer that's going to give you medium buildable coverage but it's in a lightweight consistency. Again, the skin underneath the eyes is so delicate and can be thinner and again, it has more texture. If you use a product that's really heavy or thicker, it can accentuate that texture. So particularly when you're looking at mature skin, you really want to find, again, products that are lightweight and that goes for your concealer too. So what I like to do is I like to take my brush and just kind of spread the two corners together and do like a very soft blend. So I didn't completely blend it out. I'm going to let that sit for a few seconds while I go into the other side. What I'm doing is I'm allowing this concealer to almost self set and slightly dry down a bit, so that way I can go and blend it out, and it's going to offer a little bit more coverage than if I was to go and blend it out right away. This concealer is not going to settle in fine lines or wrinkles and I just like to press, press, press and pat that concealer in to blend it in. What I'm doing is I'm ensuring that I'm getting the most coverage with the least amount of product. This is the perfect shade too. I really like to pull my concealer up right here too, to kind of lift the eye. It's a little trick, a little makeup artist hack. And then I like to take whatever is left in this inner corner and kind of sweep it across the eyelid. My eyelids tend to be a little darker. So what I'm doing is just, I'm kind of canceling and neutralizing that out and brightening the eyelid. In today's look, we're going to keep the eyes very simple and basic. We're not going to be applying a lot of eye makeup. So I want to make sure that I brighten the whole eye area. That's gorgeous. It really does conceal and brighten, but it looks so light and natural. It's not a heavy product. And again, especially underneath the eyes, you want to keep everything really lightweight. Next, we need to set everything. I'm gonna be using a loose powder. And I'm really excited to share this product with you because I am loving it. This is the L'Oréal Paris Infallible Blur-Fection Setting powder and I have two shades, I have translucent light and then I also have pink light. If you like to use a pink powder to kind of brighten there's that option. But I'm going to be going in with the translucent today. So this powder is talc free, it is transfer resistant, it is flashback resistant, So I don't have to worry about taking photos and flashing back and having your face look lighter than the rest of your body. It's not going to do that. It blurs texture on the skin, giving a very like poreless, kind of blurred skin effect. And what I do is I like to just take a little bit and kind of disperse it into the cap, and I'm going to take a light powder brush, pick that product up and I'm going to start in the forehead. I like to just powder where is needed. So for me that's always kind of the center of the face, around the nose. I always set underneath the eyes. Again, you just want to be careful not to apply too much powder. What I love about this formula is extremely, extremely fine and lightweight. It's not a heavy powder. This powder brightens and blurs for up to 24 hours. If you ever feel like you've gotten too much powder in your brush, you can just use the palm of your hand to get any excess off and I like to just kind of sweep and strategically powder. Again, in those areas that I tend to get oily or produce more oil throughout the day. I'm not going to powder on the cheeks quite yet. I might towards the end of the application, but, for now, we're just going to powder in those areas that I need to set. What I love about this is even though it's setting the foundation and setting the concealer, you're not losing any of that luminosity and that radiance from the skin tint. To bronze and warm up the skin I'm going in with the L'Oréal Paris True Match Lumi Glotion, and I'm going in with the shade Rich. Now, if you aren't familiar with this product, this is a product that is a must-have for everyone. It comes in different shades. And I use them all for different purposes. So I'm using Rich for a bronzer to warm up the skin, but I use the lighter shades to highlight the skin. You can mix this product in with your moisturizer and apply it all over if you want kind of an all over glow tan to the skin, you can apply this on top of makeup like I'm doing today, and kind of wear it as a bronzer. You can also use this in a foundation if you want to deepen the color. So let's say you are taking your winter foundation, you want to deepen a little bit for summer, You can do that. It's a very versatile product. Now I like to squeeze on the back of my hand, and I'm going to take a brush and just kin of work it into the brush. It's a very light product, meaning that you can really sheer it out and get a very sheer wash of color, or you can build it if you want more. It also has a really beautiful radiance to give the skin a bit of a glow. And I'm just going to go and tap in the area that you're going to apply bronzer. Do you see what that's doing? It's just giving this really beautiful natural bronze to the skin. This product is really easy to apply also with your fingers, a brush is not necessary. I almost apply everything with a brush. There are a few products that I don't, but this is a really easy product to apply with your fingers. It's impossible to mess up. It really, really is. You can really just tap it and it will sheer out and give a very beautiful natural bit of color to the skin. To add color to the cheeks We're going in with the L'Oréal Paris Lumi Le Liquid Blush and I'm using the shade Dewy Worth It. This is a really beautiful kind of everyday peachy pink shade. If you notice, I'm using a lot of cream and liquid products on the skin. I'm not using a lot of powder products and that's very intentional. You know what? I'm actually going to mix two shades because I want a little bit of shimmer. So I'm going to go in with a shade Glowy True Rose Is this shade here. So these are the two shades that I'm using. I'm going to mix the two of them together to kind of customize my blush. Okay, look at how pretty these are. I love these. One has a pearl to it and then one is more of a cream shade. I'm going to mix the two on the back of my hand, kind of work it into my brush. I like to kind of pre blend on my hand before I go into the skin. That just helps me control how much product I apply. So I don't over apply. And I like to start at the apple of my cheek, kind of bounce it right there in the apple of the cheek and then blend upward. This is going to give a little bit of a lift to the cheek. Oh my Gosh, this is so beautiful. So pretty. This is so easy to work with, you guys. It's the perfect amount of pigment. Not too much. But it's not really sheer either. It's beautiful. And I actually really love mixing those two finishes together. Gives you the perfect amount of radiance. What I love about this product, this is very buildable, which means it's very easy to work with. You can get a lighter application or you can really build it and get more color. We're kind of going somewhere in the middle. I'm going to go and add a little bit of highlighter very strategically on the high points of the face. So right here on the orbital bone and right above the cheekbone, and then a little bit to the tip of the nose and a little bit right around the brow. Just to kind of lift the eyes. I'm going to be going in with the L'Oréal Paris Lumi Le Glass Highlighter Stick, and I'm going in with the shade Glassy Pearl, which is a very universal highlighting stick. Now, what I love about this highlighting stick is how hydrating it is. It's also very sheer. So it's not a very shimmery highlighting stick, making it really natural and very easy to work with. It gives the skin almost like this wet glass skin effect. Do you see that? Do you see how beautiful that is? It is so pretty. Now you can actually take this product directly to the areas that you want to highlight. That's what I love about this applicator. It's the perfect size, just to take straight to the face. Do you see what that did? It instantly added this light and glow. And I'll put a little bit right here above the forehead. And then I'm going to tap it in with my finger. You want to be real strategic where you place this highlighter. We obviously have a lot of radiance coming from the products that we've already used. So this is just adding that extra little effect in those certain areas. I'm gonna play a little bit right here on the eyes and just tap, tap, tap with my fingers. So easy. You can apply this right over your makeup. This is a really great product to use too on the days where you don't want to wear much makeup, but you want the skin to glow, this will be a perfect product just to throw in your bag and use throughout the day. Look at how beautiful that is! Do you see when I twist and turn, how the light hits and catches those areas and it just lights it up? For eyes, we're just going to apply a few coats of mascara. This is the L'Oréal Paris Paradise Big Deal Mascara and I love this mascara. It gives length, it gives volume, it's a very lightweight formula. So it's not going to feel or look heavy on the lashes. It's non-clumping and it has this new self smoothing complex that just gives a very lightweight look and smooth look to the lashes. I love the wand. It's designed to really coat and cover each lash, and I always like to start at the base of the lashes, wiggle back and forth so I get as much product off of the wand and onto the lashes, and then I will pull up. It builds the lashes so fast. It's beautiful. It gives this really beautiful fanned out effect to the lashes, which I love because it actually looks natural. The wand is nice and thin, so you can really get in every little corner of your eyes, without making a mess. It's very easy to control. Do you see that? Oh my goodness, look at that. Look at the difference. Amazing. This is also great for sensitive eyes, which I don't know about you, but as I get older, my eyes are definitely more sensitive than they were when I was younger. Oh my goodness, look at that. Look at how it built that lash. That is incredible. I'm going to take a little bit on the bottom lash, not much. You don't need much on the bottom lashes, especially for mature eyes. You want to keep the lower lash line pretty soft. So I try and avoid heavy liner or heavy mascara down there, but I want a little bit just to kind of coat the lashes so everything just looks well-balanced. So we're almost done. The blush so far is the focus of this look. It's all about blush and skin. I do want to add some color to the lip. So we're going to be going in with the L'Oréal Paris Colour Riche Satin Lipstick And I'm going in with the shade 129 and I love this lipstick. It's a very rich formula. High impact in color, very hydrating. It has argan oil and vitamin E in it. Look at that. Just 1 or 2 swipes and you get full opaque pigment. This formula doesn't bleed, it doesn't feather, so it's really great for lips with texture to it. Very hydrating. Oh. Look at that. Just like one swipe and you've got full, full on color. This color's beautiful. It's like this pinky mid tone mauve shade. It feels so good on the lips. Very hydrating. Especially if you're dealing with dry lips, like I am. And you have a little bit of a satin finish. So pretty. I'm not even going to use a lip liner. And this is the finish look, the skin is glowing, it looks natural, it doesn't look overly made up, and it looks very youthful and beautiful.

Factors To Consider When Choosing Makeup for Mature Skin
We will start this off by saying that no matter your age, you should always feel free to wear whatever mature lady makeup makes you feel your best. However, if you are searching for the best makeup for women over 50 and products that work with your mature skin, here are a few tips to keep in mind.
- Hydrating formulas: Opt for hydrating formulas because, with age, the skin becomes drier thanks to a natural decline in your skin’s natural oil. Maintaining a consistent skincare routine for mature skin can help keep your skin hydrated, but you can also use hydrating makeup for older women for an added boost.
- Dewy finishes: Stick with radiant and dewy finishes since, as you age, you may also notice your skin appears more lackluster than it once did. To help counteract dullness, reach for makeup for mature women featuring formulas with glowy, dewy, or radiant finishes.
- Buildable coverage: Choose products with buildable coverage and keep an eye out for mature skin makeup that allows you to tailor your look to your liking without risking a thick, caked-on look.
- Skincare-makeup hybrids: Consider using skincare-makeup hybrids, which combine the benefits of skincare products and mature skin makeup into one. If you are on the hunt for anti-aging makeup for mature women, look for products that contain hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, or niacinamide, as these can be an asset to your anti-aging routine.
How To Apply Makeup on Mature Skin
There is no one rule for everyone when it comes to makeup for older women, but a few simple steps and tweaks can make a world of difference in your final look.
1. Start with hydrated skin
Before reaching for any L'Oréal makeup, you will want to cleanse and hydrate your skin to ensure a smooth, even application. We suggest using the L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Radiant Smoothing Cream Cleanser to prepare your face. This gentle cream cleanser is formulated with vitamin C to help enhance skin’s radiance while removing makeup and impurities for a refreshed feel. To use, wet your face and massage the cleanser onto your skin in circular motions, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
After cleansing your face and applying your favorite facial serum, smooth on a facial moisturizer to help hydrate your skin. For daytime, we recommend the L’Oréal Paris RevitaLift Triple Power Moisturizer with SPF 30. This is a broad-spectrum sunscreen and moisturizer that firms the skin and reduces wrinkles while providing essential UV protection. You can also try the L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Derm Intensives Micro Hyaluronic Acid + Ceramides Line-Plumping Water Cream (pictured below). This lightweight water cream uses micro-hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate and plump the skin for a more youthful appearance. Be sure to give your moisturizer plenty of time to absorb before applying your makeup to avoid product pilling.
To create a seamless canvas, follow with the L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect Makeup Blurring Face Primer Infused with Serum. This primer is infused with a caring serum to blur the look of pores and fine lines while keeping your skin feeling comfortable.
2. Opt for a lightweight liquid foundation
Since skin gets drier as you age, the best foundation for older women tends to be a light formula that will not settle into fine lines and look cakey on the skin. The L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect Makeup Radiant Serum Foundation with SPF 50 is a great pick because it is designed specifically for mature skin. This skincare-makeup hybrid provides light coverage for a natural, radiant look while providing essential sun protection.
If you’re looking for something with a bit more coverage, try the L'Oréal True Match collection, specifically the L’Oréal Paris True Match Super-Blendable Foundation. This foundation boasts a hydrating formula with a natural-looking medium-coverage finish that matches your skin’s undertone. For a lighter look, we love the L’Oréal Paris True Match Hyaluronic Tinted Serum, which hydrates while providing sheer, luminous coverage for a dewy, natural finish.
3. Blend your makeup with a damp sponge
Consider using a damp makeup sponge rather than a brush to apply your liquid complexion products like foundation and concealer. This application method helps sheer out the product slightly, which delivers a more natural-looking finish for your makeup for older women than you would get with a dry sponge or a brush. Applying your base with a sponge also helps prevent streaking that can sometimes accentuate fine lines. Keep in mind that the sponge should be damp and not soaking wet. Run it under warm water, then squeeze it tightly to get rid of excess moisture before using it to blend your foundation and concealer.
4. Add color with a liquid blush
Blush can be a great way to add dimension and liveliness to your complexion. It is important to select the right formula as highly-pigmented powders may leave the skin feeling dry or settle into fine lines over the course of the day. Instead, we suggest opting for a liquid blush like the L’Oréal Paris Lumi Le Liquid Blush. This lightweight liquid formula provides a buildable flush of color with a dewy finish that is the best makeup for mature skin since it looks incredibly natural. Choose your favorite shade from the lineup and dot it onto your cheeks, then use a damp sponge to blend it out for a soft flush of color. If you are not sure exactly where to place your blush, we break it down in our article on How To Apply Blush for Your Face Shape.
5. Try brown eyeliner
Traditional black eyeliner can sometimes look too stark on your features. Instead of ditching your eyeliner altogether, try swapping your go-to black for a dark brown shade to provide definition without overpowering your look. The L’Oréal Paris Infallible Grip Mechanical Gel Eyeliner in Brown Denim is a great pick because it boasts a smooth, creamy formula that glides on easily without tugging. This mechanical pencil is waterproof and smudge-resistant, ensuring your eye makeup stays in place for hours. If you want to make your eyes appear more lifted, you can try a winged eyeliner look by flicking the liner upward at the outer corner.
To complete the look, apply the L’Oréal Paris Paradise Big Deal Buildable Washable Mascara. This mascara features a buildable, washable formula that adds volume and length to lashes without clumping or feeling heavy. You can also add soft definition with the L’Oréal Paris Paradise Le Shadow Stick by gliding the creamy shadow across your lids and blending with your fingertip.
6. Use a light hand when filling in brows
Brow pencils and mascaras can be useful tools for making sparse brows appear fuller and thicker. However, when filling in your brows, it is best to use a light hand since bold, blocky eyebrows can look harsh. For a natural brow look, lightly fill in sparse areas with a precise brow pen like the L’Oréal Paris Faux Brow Hair-Like Brow Filling Pen. This pen features ultra-fine tips perfect for creating hair-like strokes that mimic your natural brow hairs.

7. Add color to your lips
Your lips deserve hydration and color that enhances your overall look. For a modern finish, try the L’Oréal Paris Paradise Hyaluron Tint Lip Stain Serum, which provides a long-lasting stain with the comfort of a serum. This lip product delivers vibrant color that feels weightless and keeps your lips feeling moisturized throughout the day. If you prefer a more traditional look, the L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Satin Lipstick is a classic choice available in dozens of flattering shades. This iconic lipstick is enriched with nourishing ingredients like omega 3 and vitamin E to provide rich color and a creamy satin finish. To use, simply apply starting in the center of your upper lip and work your way to the outer edges.

Common Makeup Mistakes To Avoid When You Have Mature Skin
We often say there is no right or wrong way to apply products, and you should always do what feels best for you. However, if you find your look appears flat or cakey, you may want to tweak your approach to your mature lady makeup.
Skipping skin prep
Starting with clean, hydrated skin is a must because products will not glide properly onto a dry or uneven base. Always start your routine by cleansing your face, then applying a moisturizer and sunscreen to protect your skin. We love the L'Oréal Paris RevitaLift Triple Power Moisturizer with SPF 30. This daily fluid is designed to moisturize while protecting skin with high-level SPF 30 filters. If you want more tips, read about how to use makeup primer to create a perfect base.
Using a heavy hand
A less-is-more approach is usually best when applying products to mature skin to avoid looking overdone. Always start with a small amount of product and gradually build your way up to your desired level of coverage. Remember that you can always apply more, but removing excess product is much more difficult.
Choosing dark makeup shades
There is a time and place for dark eyeshadow, but usually lighter, subtler hues like peachy pinks and roses are more flattering. Makeup that is extremely dark can overpower your features and result in a look that feels too heavy. Keep in mind that this is just general advice, and you should wear whatever makes you feel confident.
Not setting your makeup properly
Setting your products helps ensure they hold up throughout the day, but it is important to use the right technique. Setting powders can sometimes emphasize texture, so if you use one, reach for a blurring formula like the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Blur-Fection Longwear Loose Setting Powder. This translucent loose powder blurs the appearance of imperfections and pores while keeping makeup in place without a heavy look. You can also set your look with the L’Oréal Paris Infallible 3-Second Setting Mist. This micro-fine mist locks in makeup for a full 36 hours with a natural finish that feels completely weightless on the skin.
Makeup Tips for Aging Skin
Mastering your routine involves a few key habits that make a significant impact on your final look. By focusing on hydration and light layers, you can ensure your products enhance your features without settling into lines.
Prep skin with hydration
Always use a rich moisturizer or a daily moisturizer with SPF before you begin your L'Oréal makeup application. This step ensures your skin is plump and smooth, preventing your foundation from clinging to any dry patches.
Use less product
Applying your products in thin, buildable layers is the best way to prevent them from settling into wrinkles. Using a light touch allows your natural skin to shine through while still achieving an even complexion for the best makeup for mature skin.
Choose radiant finishes
Opting for radiant and dewy finishes helps to counteract any age-related dullness you may experience. You can find many skincare-makeup hybrids that offer these glowing results while nourishing your skin.
Blend with a damp sponge
Blending your complexion products with a damp sponge helps to create a seamless and natural finish. This technique ensures that your foundation and concealer melt into the skin for a soft-focus effect.
