Quick Beauty Fixes At Every Age
Posted: Wednesday 5 October 2011 10:42am
Each age group has different concerns and needs. We share the one thing you can do for a quick beauty pep-up.
In Your 20s
Your skin is your best asset at this age, so flaunt it. Pat a skin illuminator over your complexion for an instant glow, or mix it in with your foundation for a fuller coverage. We like the sheer formula of Clinique Up-Lighting Liquid Illuminator, $48, which instantly leaves the skin dewy and radiant. It comes in three variations: Natural, Blush and Bronze.
In Your 30s
Play up your eyes for a fast pick-me-up. Two coats of a curl-enhancing mascara will open your eyes for a youthful appearance. Rimmel London Sexy Curves Mascara, $17.95, features a collagen enriched formula that strengthens your lashes while the hourglass-shaped wand helps build the mascara on the lashes for a curled, voluminous and defined effect.
In Your 40s
If you’re worried about fine lines around the eyes, draw focus to your lips. A moisturising lipstick in a vibrant shade will do the trick. If you want more volume, apply a lip plumping product before your colour. Try YSL Rouge Volupte Silky Lipstick in Rose Culte, $55, and Napoleon Perdis Love Bite Lip Plump, $28.
In Your 50s
Get clever with concealer. After evening your skin tone with foundation, gently pat concealer under the eye area. Use a shade with golden or yellow undertones to counteract any purplish discolouration, and use sparingly around the outer corners of the eye where product can settle into fine lines (and further enhance them). We like Benefit Erase Paste, $47, for its concentrated, creamy consistency. This concealer brightens and camouflages in one, with brightening melon undertones to suit every complexion.

In Your 60s & Over
For a faster fix than botox, try an instant wrinkle filler. Freezeframe Wrinkle Filler, $89, fills and blurs lines and imperfections, such as crows feet, fine lines, enlarged pores, lip lines and nasolabial folds, in just one hour.
