Eye shadows with "shimmer" truly enhance our "experience lines" -- seemed like it was overnight (not probable, but it was an ah-hah! moment for me) MAC cosmetics makes a wide variety of mat finishes, but I'm learning more that those of us over fifty should search out cream eye shadows -- a first for me and am just beginning my search on this forumOriginally Posted by internetchick /img/forum/go_quote.gif
I am not over 50 yet, but here is my opinion:
I would use a primer to help smooth out the skin's surface, and then use a lightweight foundation or tinted moisturizer. I think powder is OK used with a light hand.
I don't think over 50s need to give up shimmer. You might try using it just on your tear duct and the center of your lid if you are worried about highlighting lines. Stila makes nice mattes, and so does Urban Decay. I hear very good things about MAC's Matte2 formula.
