    These "don't do's" are great! As a woman in my 60s, I find the key to aging beautifully is to soften your look and Risa's shared some terrific ways of doing that. Nothing is more aging than harsh makeup. Continue to use the types of makeup you enjoy, but blend more, choose different shades, learn new techniques, etc. Treat your skin well and always apply a good sunscreen. And most importantly, smile!! It makes all the difference in how you look AND feel! ♥️

    Confession time: I happened to look at some photos of myself taken in my early 30s (I'll be 49 in a few months) and afterwards I felt "depressed" for the entire day. I've always had hooded eyes but I had so much more space between my eyes and my brows when I was 30. Also, I had fuller hair, less lines...
    For full disclosure, I think I look good for my age, maybe I even look a little younger than my age. But looking at those photos was a sad eye-opener. No pun intended (hooded eyes... eye-opener, you know?).
    Ok, onwards with the video now.

    I love your hooded eye techniques. Been doing that for a while now. I also have an additional challenge doing my hooded eyes...about 8 years ago, had a BCC removed from the top part of the bridge of my nose, and was closed up with the flap technique. That involved cutting an aggressive margin, and the skin on the left eye pulled over a little more to suture. The scar is pretty much invisible. My left eye is more hooded than the right. It is like having 2 different eyelids on the same face. I have learned how to compensate and adjust my eyeshadow technique. It is pretty goofy doing 2 complete different eyes on one face. When I'm done, no one would really notice after I was done.

    I have large eyes, but as I am aging I find that the lid is dropping and I have learned from you how to make that OK. When it comes to makeup I apply everyday no matter if I am leaving the house or not. If I am going somewhere I do a little more detailed eye work . I have gotten a lot of compliments on my makeup which makes me feel really great not that I am the big 80 ! People usually think I am in my 60’s which I will gladly accept and say Thank You. The only thing I got from Covid was white hair and in the beginning I had mixed feelings about that, but it is white not a gray, so I went for it! I wear it in a bob and get many compliments on my hair. I feel some of my friends wouldn’t think of putting any makeup on their face so i always ask them if they wear sunscreen, and the answer is usually no. Since I have had 2 pre cancer spots on my face that isn’t a choice, and I just continue on with the rest of my makeup. Sorry this is so long but I feel there are a lot of women who don’t like their looks as they age and think there isn’t anything they can do to look better, so I am here to preach GO FOR IT! You can always wash your face if you need to start over after all it’s just makeup! Thanks 😊

    Risa i believe You &Wayne Goss give the best beauty advice when it comes to applying makeup. ya'll have changed my makeup game &its been a life changer. I am 43 years old with mature skin & speaking from experience the older ladies should avoid these younger youtubers &listen more to the older beauty youtubers. I am subscribed to some younger youtubers but only because i love watchingtheir makeup declutter videos &collections, but as for makeup tips if your a older woman then the older women can give better advice for the mature skin types. I love your channel

    I needed a firm reminder, my 20yr old daughter has been bugging me for almost 2 years... do your brows!!! Past 2 years I have learned and slowly getting better with makeup (and started a good skincare routine)... but for some reason I just don't do my brows. I had Sephora do my makeup and they said I have nice shaped/brows but also said... do them as it does make a difference. That was a few months ago (for my 50th, it was a big treat) and I have not yet. I also needed to hear about using smaller brushes (I have hooded eyes as well) and think that will be helpful with eyeshadow. I never have used liquid eyeliner, or wings as never could get hang of. Thank you for making it ok that I cannot. False lashes... really!?!?! I feel that is more of a young thing, I have such short straight lashes even mascara sometimes does not help but I have found some better mascara recently. Next: maybe I will try a half lash or full lash as my eyes do turn down. I will seriously look into brows and lashes... thank you! ❤

    Thank you SO much! I am 68 and decided to give false eyelashes a try , just because its been such a trend (not that I am to concerned with trendy) . I have tried them in the past and got so irritated and quit. But I am retired now and I decided since I battled cancer last year, and have a lot of time on my hands, I would give them another try. I hope to see all the doctors and nurses and fellow patients and show them I really DO have eyelashes and brows. Mine are as blonde as my hair, and i was so sick thru all of that, make up was not a priority. I use to never leave the house without at least my eye make up on... but at that point, I didn't care! I wore them without a tutorial last weekend and only with sheer luck, got them on good. lol But today was "no ma'am" , it wasn't happening! I'm so glad I found you! I got some great tips from you and I feel much more confident about doing my eyes!! God Bless, Risa.

    It took a long time for me to attempt to do false lashes. She is correct they do open the eye and give a youthful look . Especially in the beginning of learning how to apply false eyelashes I like to cut mine in half and use on the outer edge of the eye .
    Whenever I think about my hooded eyes not being very pretty I remember where I got them from ....my beautiful Mother who in her her late 70’s had the most beautiful hooded eyes without make up .

    I had deep set eyes when younger, and now the skin has fallen and rests on m eyelashes, especially at the corners. I have decent eyelashes though and wearing an eyelash primer and mascara takes 10 years of my face.. One other thing I think helps is wearing eyeshadow colors that really play up your eye color. Risa, looking especially lovely today

    I just keep telling the universe I’m still 22. ( : Very helpful suggestions. Castor oil made my lashes grow like crazy and quickly and I hardly need mascara (a beauty guru called no mascara her editorial look which I love) but am ready to experiment with it. One UA-camr swears the ZIIP lifted his eyes and it looks like they did and nicely. I think I’m going to start trying magnetic quarter lashes just to be kind to them. I’m a big believer in decline not being inevitable but an option. People are looking younger all the time. 🦋🌸✨

    Very informative video! I absolutely agree with you about wearing false eyelashes. It was pretty frustrating for me when I started wearing them but I didn't give up and now I love them! I'll be 52 in a few days and my eyelids have started drooping and the false eyelashes have helped tremendously. I found an eyeliner/glue to use. It goes on like a liquid eyeliner, but also operates as a glue for my false eyelashes. I give it about 30 seconds or so to dry and then apply the false eyelash with an applicator. Definitely a game changer! TYFS 😊

    Great video Risa! Please be very very careful and do your homework if you decide to get a bleproplasty at any point. My sister had one last year. Yes, insurance paid because it was supposedly affecting her vision. She, unfortunately, got a botched job. She now has 2 completely different sized eyes. She also now has such dry eyes she can barely open them. I know this isn’t the case for everyone, but I’d think long and hard before I did it.

    If they tell you that you do not have put it dies that just tells you how extremely good you are at what you do. The other point I wanted to make is that when people take a really light almost whitish product and put it on the top by the eyebrow that’s all you see and brings it forward. I see a lot of make up artist doing that then all you see is the hood even more. I’ve seen professional artist do that. You do it just right and I’ve learned so much thank you

We come to you for makeup tips and advice so why would anyone complain that your telling us what we need to do or not do to look better. I’ll tell you I had the bleph. I didn’t have any idea about it or just what it did. I mentioned to the tech at the eye Dr., I said if I could lift this part of my eyes I could see better. That led to getting this done. I was in my late 40’s, now I’m 61. It’s still great, but it’s not like it was when I had it done and for several years later. If anyone is “thinking” about it make SURE YOUR DR IS EXPERIENCED AND GOOD!!! My insurance paid because it was effecting my sight. It’s worth it if you know exactly what your doing. ❤
