    Thank u for the tips! Best price for Lumify is at Costco for $28 for 2 large bottles. I use a color corrector as first spot application to hyperpigmentation and my eye “trough” area to minimize gray appearance thru my foundation (or eye concealer) . I also moisturize the heck out of my under eyes (Wayne gods rec) before corrector/concealer to make them appear plump. I also only line the outer 1/3 of lower lash line. That way it doesn’t draw attn to my fine lines but still opens up the look. I use a steel gray or brown color, avoiding heavy look of black

    Hi Lisa, thank you for all of these great tips. My takeaway from this video is to spend more time on my spot concealing and less time trying to conceal with foundation. That flat look is aging. Hope you are enjoying the weekend!

      Hi Lisa, I’m 61 years old so for me if I wear shimmer on my lids as much as I wish I still could, it really ages me. I love the makeup my Mario eyeliner you got me started on and I have to say I love the attached brush because my eyelids have so many little age bumps now I can’t draw a straight line with any liner so it’s nice to use the brush to smudge the line so it’s not too drastic as you suggested in an earlier video. What I wish you would do is an all clean makeup line for those of us who are conscious of cancer causing ingredients as we age. Thank you for the consideration. I’ve been using hourglass vanish for stick foundation and their face primer is amazing, I also just found Nudestix brand lip pencils which are super soft and apply easily. I’ve never lined my lips till now and what a difference that makes so thank you for that helpful hint. My lips have always been pencil thin so it’s nice to finally have form and shape by using pencil.

    Hi Lisa, I can't believe I’ve only just found your lovely channel, but I'm so glad I have. I love the way you talk to us, you are so honest & natural. I have only watched a couple of your videos so far ( I will certainly be going back & watching as many of your previous videos as I can ) but I have already learnt a lot. I have been wearing heavy makeup since the age of 15 because I blush deep red very easily & have always been very embarrassed by this. Now I'm 52 I can cope better with this so want to wear lighter makeup, especially as I have some eye wrinkles now. Your tutorials are so informative & useful & I love that you are concentrating on make-up for my age group. The detail you go into is just what I need & so helpful. Thank you for making these videos, I'm so glad I've found your channel. Have a great week, lots of love Rachel UK.

    I love Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser treatment makeup. I have found the perfect shade for me so I don't even need to apply it to every little area of my face. It is light, has SPF 18 and looks really natural.
    I have bought more expensive foundations that look cakey and heavy. This is affordable and provides enough coverage and correction.
    Also love their Eraser multiuse concealer.

    Hello again Lisa. Great tutorial! I don't like that matte/flat foundation look all the stores seem to be pushing. I see young ladies on the tube (sorry for the "Brit-speak"! I live in the UK!) wearing ultra thick makeup all the time. I used to do that when I was their age because i didn't appreciate my skin the way I do now and I am just SO over that caked-on look! I'm going to check out Lumify to see if it's available here in the UK. Also going to invest in some better coverage concealers, as i have pretty pervasive dark circles that are hereditary. I minimised them by giving up gluten and dairy but they still come out to play if I'm tired or in hot weather. Thank you also for such a friendly and conversational approach to your makeup secrets!

    What tinted serum would you recommend me. I live in Miami, hot and humid, my skin can get shiny on the T zone and dryer on the rest of the face. I don’t think I need too much coverage. I like to use Teint Idole concealer from Lancôme to cover few dark sports and for my under eye, which are dark.

      @LisaMonique  2 роки тому +1

      Have you tried Wet n Wild’s tinted hydrator? It’s nice light weight coverage with natural finish. The L’Oréal tinted serum is a favorite too. For mid range, I’m always going to recommend Charlotte Tilburys Light Wonder. It’s the most beautiful coverage and finish without being dewy like other tinted moisturizers.

    • @LisaMonique
      @LisaMonique  Рік тому

      There are primers that help “fill in” the pores like the elf putty primer. But usually to make them less visible you need to really buff in the foundation with a brush so it actually gets into the pores so you don’t have these dark circles where the pores are. As far as reducing the size I found niacinimide did well at reducing the size of my pores, though it doesn’t make them look like they did when we were younger.
