The right makeup products and techniques can make a huge difference to a woman's appearance.

When done properly, your cosmetics can flatter your best features, conceal ones you aren't too keen on, and potentially make you look years younger.


Beauty enthusiast Rachel De Oliveria (@racheldeoliveria on TikTok) took to the sharing platform with a top makeup tip.

She advised mature ladies to invest in a cream eyeshadow stick, describing it as a "foolproof" way to achieve a great eye makeup look.

Rachel uses the Eyeshadow Stick Matte in Caramel from the Australian brand MCoBeauty. However, similar products are available from many makeup brands.

Demonstrating the product, she said: "This is why a cream eyeshadow stick is your best friend when it comes to creating a really quick and easy eye look.

"You can't stuff it up - you literally just scribble it on, grab a brush and blend away."

Claiming that it has instant anti-ageing benefits, Rachel added: "It is so good for us more mature ladies or mature-skin ladies as it can also help to conceal little lines underneath here - or mask them at least."

After blending out the cream eyeshadow stick, the beauty enthusiast advised using a concealer or foundation brush to wipe from underneath the eye to the outer corner to "clean up" the look.

Finally, you can apply mascara, a staple product in most women's makeup bags.

A celebrity makeup artist spoke exclusively to GB News about why most women over 50 "can't live without" mascara.

She explained that they should not "skimp" on the product, as it "opens the eyes" and makes the face appear "youthful".

While you may have been applying makeup since your late teens or early 20s, your techniques may have evolved over the years.

One celebrity makeup artist named the "creamy" product that should be your "best friend" over 50.

Ladies over 50 have also been given makeup tips that "make you look younger, youthful and glorious".
