Go on line to a website called: "Colormebeautiful.com" They have a wheel concealer kit that has anchorwoman blue for dark circles, yellow concealer and lavender concealer also a skin color concealer. First put on a non-perfume day cream for sensative skin. Then start with the anchorwoman blue under your eyes. dab a tiny bit, then add the yellow on your age spots and the lavender all over lightly, then with the skin color concealer dab on all over your face lightly to even out your skin tone. Remember a little goes a long way with these products...apply lightly. The dark spot on your forehead can be concealed with a product called Dermablend. Dermablend comes in all skin shades. Then use a light sheer type foundation for sensative skin that matches your skin tone all over your face blending well. All department stores carry the Dermablend and they have a website too. It is waterproof and you dab it on the dark spot and then set it with powder. Now for your eyes, I would use a light beige eyeshadow, nothing too garish. Then a dark brown soft eyeliner and then black mascara. Then a peachy pink blush. Brush upwards toward your cheepbones. Use a good lipliner a that blends with your lipstick selection on your lips going just above your normal lip line to make them look fuller and then add a nice peachy pink lipstick and then over that a lip gloss. A suggestion would be is to have a makeup session in the department store. Some makeup companies will make up a woman for no fee, just to show off their products. Then you can see how different you will look made up. The key to makeup is to apply it in a way that when you are done it looks natural and fresh. I think you seem to be down on yourself. Don't be..because we all have flaws in our skin, but the wonderful thing is today is most flaws can be corrected and you can look great. You are 48 years old..hey that is considered still young today, so buy some good makeup and the products I recommended and you will be thrilled with the result. Good Luck Try Physicians Formula in the drugstore for sensative skin. In the department store, try Prescriptives. Tell the salesperson that you have sensative skin, and they will steer you in the right direction.

Use eyeliner and mascara to widen the eyes. Use a eyeliner pencil instead of liquid eyeliner until you can get the hang of using it and apply to the top of the lid only. Dior and YSL do good eyeliners and maxfactor masterpiece max is an excellent lenghthening mascara.

Try concealer on the dark spot, maybelline is excellent.

Use a lip liner and lipstick (in the same colour) to plump out the lips and it may be worth trying out a lip plumper such as Du-Wop's Lip venom.

Use a highlighter on the face like Benefit Hollywood Glow. Apply where the sun will hit like the forehead, cheeks, chin and nose bridge, this will help to keep your skin radient.

I would concentrate on one of your features and make it pop. So either go for smoky eyes with natural lips or bright lips with natural eyes. Strart with a foundation and apply after moisturizering your skin. Then a dusting of bronzer or pressed podwer. I like the covergirl pressed podwers the best and you can get them anywhere. Then define your brows with a pencil that closely mathes your shade. Then either line your eyes with a smoky kohl pencil and follow with mascara and a natural gloss for your lips. Or, just use a natual shade of shadow on your eyes follow with mascara and use a bright lipstick that matches your skin tone. You can also highlight your cheekbones with a neutral shade. If you need help with your colors or application go to www.covergirl.com for a free beauty consultation. They will match you up with the right colors and who you who to. Good luck!

Answer 5

well since your eyes are small...try using a solid black liquid eyeliner to add a thin line at the very top of you eyelids...but before that add a nice eyeshaddow that will compliment you skin. and for the bottom of the eyes..use two eyeliners...black..and a shade slightly darker than your eyeshadow. snear the colored eyeliner a little and add a fine black line right under your eye and finish it off by curling your eyelashes and adding mascara.. that should look nive. try using Benefits plump lipgloss with a nice tint to match the rest of your make-up.
