Applying lip make-up over 50: These lipstick colors will conjure up a few years!
A woman is not too old to wear makeup. In addition to eyeshadow, primer and base, lipstick also plays an important role in a fresh look. Similar make-up rules apply as when you're 20 or 30: Find the right lipstick color for your skin tone, experiment with different shades and combine the lipstick with matching eye shadow.
Which lipstick suits me? Warm peach shades for women with honey blonde hair
Women with honey-blonde hair and fair skin look particularly good on rosè nuances such as peach. They allow the warm undertones of the complexion to come into their own, appear fresh and...make you younger. Wine red and plum can have the opposite effect: they create a strong contrast to the skin tone and bring small imperfections such as wrinkles or pigment spots to the foreground.
Applying lip make-up over 50: Tips for platinum blonde women
Do you have platinum blonde hair? Go for a pink lipstick with a blue undertone. The shade looks particularly good on women with blue or green eyes, looks very natural and goes perfectly with both light complexions and dark skin. Avoid orange tones and apricot colors as they accentuate the yellow tint in the skin.
Which lipstick suits red hair? Apricota nuances
Nude, apricot and orange tones look particularly good on women with red hair. They enhance thin lips and make them appear fuller. Women with fair complexions should opt for a lighter shade, while women with sun-kissed skin can also apply darker shades.
Which lipstick for gray hair? Warm pink nuances make you look younger
Women with gray hair or gray blending can wear any warm shade. Pink and pink lipsticks look particularly good. Light nude tones also look good as long as the skin tone is warm. If you have a cool undertone, then you can go for a berry color.
Which lipstick for wrinkles?
Wrinkled lips should best be made up with a light nude shade. In this way, small wrinkles can be concealed and the lips look fuller and smoother.
Another trick can help conceal wrinkles around the mouth. First apply a lip balm - it makes the skin more supple and makes it easier to apply lipstick.

Apply more make-up to thin lips: With age, lips become thinner because the skin's elasticity decreases. Wear a homemade lip balm every day made from beeswax, coconut butter and almond oil, mixed in a 1 to 1 to 2 ratio. Add another drop of essential oil and melt the whole thing in a bowl of water. Then pour the mixture into small cans or other containers of your choice. Apply lip balm daily, 30 minutes before applying make-up.
Primer prevents lipstick from bleeding
You can apply primer so that the lipstick really stays on your lips and doesn't smear or run. It comes around the lips and basically frames them, so that later lipstick and lip gloss last a long time.
- If you're not sure which shade looks good on you, then you can't go wrong with a nude lipstick.
- Use lipsticks with a creamy consistency and shine. It is best to use products for mature skin.
- A matte lipstick can also dry the lips, and long-lasting lipsticks are also not recommended.
- Remove dead skin cells by scrubbing lips with a soft toothbrush.
- As for the colors, if you want to test out a new shade of lipstick, thenwear the lipstickon the inside of the skin and hold your hand right next to your mouth. Check how the teeth look with this shade. Apricot, orange, brown and beige in particular make your teeth look yellowish.
Make-up is not complete without lipstick. The right shade can cheat a few years away and showcase your assets. At the same time, small imperfections such as mouth wrinkles can be hidden with primer and lip balm. Ultimately, your lips look well-groomed and attractive even at 50, 60 or 70.
