But my heart is sold mineral makeup. With a good moisturiser underneath, it is still my favourite makeup because it is light, works well on sensitive skin, and doesn't cause or contribute to age-related flushed cheeks!!

Tell Judith thanks! I have always used shades of mauves or pinks on my eyelids anyway - they work well with my coloring but the burgundy in the crease is going bye bye! Good tips!

And yes, Magnolia, never buy makeup from a twenty-year-old. I'm very lucky to have a makeup artist in his 50s (one of the top artists in San Francisco)whom I trust implicitly. He modifies whatever the current trend is for my age. If you're ever in the neighborhood, I'll hook you up! So glad to hear you are finding my tips helpful.

I just bought some hypoalergenic eye makeup yesterday as it seems allergies and dry eyes are attacking me lately. It seems to help. I agree with your makeup choices, although I often use lipstick as blush when in a rush and it matches my lips. Thanks for an interesting post and good advice. Micki Peluso Hey Judith,

They are so perfect, I printed them out and am taking them shopping with me for new foundation, lip liner, etc. Bless you, Eileen, for your incredibly practical blog and for your little (actually BIG) part in Keeping America Beautiful. Considering the percentage of the population we feisty-fifty-plus gals "make up," you've made a significant contribution to the view out there, LOL! I can't wait to see my new look.

About 10 years ago I began to notice that what worked in my 30's was NOT working in my 40's and beyond. My skin tone was changing. Hair color was changing. I looked horrible in those dark browns, bronzes and taupes that used to make my face glow and shine. Now, I looked like dracula's daughter! I mentioned this to a young girl (probably 20's) at a make-up counter and that I felt I need to change my color palette. She stared blankly at me and shook her head "NO". HUH???? Nevah, Nevah, again will I buy make-up from a 20-something. :) You know, I’m so glad to hear this.
