Girl I stopped using powder foundation in my 30s. I stopped coloring my hair at 51. I'm going on 55 this year. More salt than pepper. I recently cut bangs to hide the furrow lines. Brighter lipsticks balance the silver hair, subtle eye shadows because I wear glasses. I started taking 50+ vitamins going through perimenopause, and now I'm over that hill. I've never had as many compliments on my hair, the "color", the cut, and my complexion as I've had the last three dye free years. Nature really does give us the color we're supposed to have. I've gone to a single, soft shimmer just on my lids as they're hooded, simple smoked eyeliner, and it works. The shimmer gives a brightness behind my glasses. I still use Double Wear and still get compliments. Basically, we need to do what works for us. This works for me. I'm still glam, just older and more sparkly.

I have ADHD and this has been the simplest but most informative makeup tutorial I have ever watched! Thank you for explaining why we should and shouldn’t do things, but also making it concise.

I used to wear makeup whenever I just stepped out the door, two years ago I bought high quality derma pen and started doing sessions at home. that little device changed my skin in a way that I am not wearing makeup any longer. I have tried almost everything to look younger, anything from face exercises, vitamin C serum, Fraxel, collagen supplements, retin A etc. However, nothing made any real difference compared to this. Within 3 months of use (Every 3 weeks), my skin has improved DRAMATICALLY. I don't look like I'm in my 20s again, but definitely not 58 either. My fine lines have disappeared completely, and my nasolabial folds are way less prominent/nonexist. People often underestimate the power of wounding and the revolutionary effects it can have on the skin.

I recently turned 60, and I feel way more beautiful than I did at 40. One of the reasons is happiness and confidence AND all the wonderful tips I have learnt from content makers like you. Angie is stunning!

I can see Angie had her brows professionally done. Brows are everything to the face. Maybe cover brow care in a video?💕

[evereden]

Angie is beautiful. Her eyes, smile, and hair stood out immediately. Thank you for this video.

Gabi i love your message!
As a woman of 52 going through menopause, i feel my power slipping away every year.
Beauty is so over valued in our society that the loss of it can be devastating.
I wish i could accept growing older, but im really struggling. Im a product of my society.
Your videos help so much tbough, so thank you!!!!

I'm a make up artist and beauty therapist 26 years now. EVERYTHING you said is spot on. I cannot tell you how many times I have done mature faces and spent the whole time repeating this advice to my ladies.
The higher level technical advice like colour correction advice is confusing for many. Some come back for longer consults because they never learned how to use products, tools and techniques properly. Time gets by, and you just stick to what you know. And very often, what you learned in your teens. And we know this is not great practise.
The principle of less is more and looking dewey and diffused instead of chalky and dull is what you want as you age. Don't be afraid of a pop of colour on eyes OR Lip. Choose ONE to enhance. Especially choose the right blush. Cream blush goes on cream foundation. And if I may add one tip. Hydrating or luminising setting spray at the end. It melts in nicely and sets your make up with flexibility and staying power. And a good tip to choose your foundation if you have aged freckly skin. Ask at your make up counter for assistance to match the tone of product between your slightly darker freckling and your base skin tone. Your new foundation with blend beautifully between the two. Switch to a brush for application. Not fingers.
It may also be beneficial to ask your aesthetician about a lash and brow tint. And for those ladies with disappearing brows, a subtle tattooing can do wonders.
There are also amazing little hooded eye tapes you can buy to support a hooded eye all day. They can barely be seen and make up gets applied over them. Amazing little things.
And if you do need lashes, stick to a few individuals applied on the edges. Or cut about 1/4 or so inches of the end of a full strip and just use these and the end.

Thank you Gabi. Great educators like you are rare. And to have such kindness in your approach with words to us over 50's is what we need to hear in a world where we feel we are becoming invisible and irrelevant. Most of us are dealing with changing bodies we do not recognise. And the feeling of insecurities and lack of confidence that often comes at this stage of life.
Also, your model is stunning. I'll bet she rocked some amazing make up looks in her youth too!

switching away from matte makeup as i've gotten older has been a huge change for me. After having oily skin for most of my life & always using mattifying products, i came to find that as i got older, my skin was no longer oily & I had to start moving to more moisturizing & luminous products. Game. Changer.!

I’m about to turn 51 and internally I feel the most empowered I have ever felt!!!! Externally I am fighting aging. Angie you look amazing!!!

[teresafraser]

I absolutely love all your youthful tips! Can't wait to start !

Gabi I recently discovered your channel and I have to say I just love it! I am 62 years old and after about 10 years of family-member caregiving and losing my husband, I am just getting started on creating an improved me for my third chapter. Your channel is so uplifting and positive. I feel like this new decade will be my best one yet. I am experimenting with new hair and changes to my makeup routine. I feel more hopeful than ever about my future. Thank you and please keep your videos coming! 🥰

She has an amazing lip line!

The only part of this finished look that didn’t do it for me was the foundation: it seemed to sit in the lines around her mouth prominently when she wasn’t smiling. I found she looked much better with well hydrated, natural skin, but I’m also not a foundation gal.

I just joined the 50 club and it is truly amazing to me how dried out I can look with no moisturizer and how glowy I look after I put moisturizer on. Start young and never stop hydrating, kids!

Hi Gabi ❤. I want to re-watch this video several times! Thank you. It was soooo good. I learned so much. Keep these videos coming! ❤

[ellenr]

Thank you beautiful Angie for being a wonderful model! Thank you Gabi for sharing your skills and kindness! I’m excited to try these new techniques.

[janetsantoro]

Gabi, I love the way you did two looks, the wrong way and the right way because it really sends the message home! I am also a stylist and makeup artist and in my sixties now. I still love to experiment with new makeup looks, but basically deep down I know what works and what I did 20s and 30s just doesn’t serve me anymore. Your application was spot on and I picked up a few good tips! So thank you!

[SherriNDallasTX]

Gabi, you are so PROFESSIONAL, a GREAT speaker, and get to the point without all the “like”s or “basically “s so many use in their speech these days. THANK YOU for these great tips and I look forward to watching more of your channel❣️

[valerieservice]

I love your channel! I’m 63 and have gotten so many amazing tips that I use every day. Keep it up! Happy New Year🤩

[danamgarrett]

Thank you so so so much for this video. I’m 51, and for the first time, I’m having a hard time finding the right makeup. Angie’s makeup is perfect! (I love her eyes, so I would definitely play them up like you did.)
