1. Moisturizer with hyaluronic acid, ceramides and/or niacinamide

Preparing the skin is essential for the subsequent application of makeup. “This helps us slide the makeup better on our skin and prevents the pigment from sticking ‘in patches’ in certain areas, while nourishing and hydrating our face.”explains Xabier Rodríguez Lucena, National Artist of MAC Cosmetics Iberia. When choosing it, especially if you are over 40 years old, make sure it contains one or more of these ingredients: hyaluronic acid, ceramides and/or niacinamide. “Hyaluronic acid serves to hydrate the skin, ceramides prevent tissue dryness and also help the application of makeup to be more homogeneous, and niacinamide is sebum-regulating, anti-inflammatory and reinforces the creation of new cells”details Xabier Rodríguez.

2. Makeup in equal parts pink and orange tones

This makeup trend has become trending topics thanks to the ‘good face’ effect it achieves on the face: “Something that is achieved with makeup tones that mix shades of pink and orange in equal parts, which transport us to the flowering of spring, to good weather, to nature, and give us instant freshness and rejuvenation”, advises the makeup artist. As for textures, don’t go crazy, you can opt for a matte, satin and shiny finish. What is really important after the age of 40 is that you recover the luminosity and health of your skin.

3. Peach cheeks

“It is a simple but very effective makeup and we can easily recreate it with a couple of products: a blush and a lipstick in peach tones (the type of tone to taste)”, says the MAC makeup artist. Best in cream texture, from 40 years old. “The crux of the matter is how to apply it –confesses Xabier Rodríguez-. To create that sweet and healthy effect, the ideal is to apply it to the central areas of the face. A trick that usually works is to smile and apply it on the cheeks, blending it slightly over our cheekbones towards the ears.”advises the makeup artist.

AN ADVICE: You apply the blush on your cheeks and deposit the excess from the brush on your eyelids.

4. metallic eye shadow

You can be scared by the ‘literality’ of this type of shadows, especially after 40 years of age. However, “It is not necessary to apply a super metallic copper tone to get on this trend. You can choose: from satin shadows with this undertone, to more frosty ones”, according to Xabier Rodríguez. And as for the texture, after 40 avoid them that are powdery, super matte, super creamy and glossy because they mark the signs of aging more. “A simple way to apply them is by giving a simple touch with a small brush on the tear duct or/and lining the upper lash line. You can also take a little shadow on a blending brush and lightly caress the upper eyelids to provide a subtle but obvious reflection.”advises the expert.

5. peach lips

Get a lipstick in an orange, nude or peach tone. “We apply our favorite peach lipstick and then we put on some lip moisturizer. If we want, we can add a little mascara”concludes the MAC expert.
