i quit foundation as a regular thiing and i am 65! it made me look harsh and older. still wear a touch of blush, mascara on uppers, pale, llike AAE, on lids and tiny bit of liner (shadow applied dry with tiny brush. gloss with some color to it. a little brow color.
that's it. no, my complexion is not flawless, but it looks real and appropriate..
