Best beauty treats for 67 year old?

I am taking my mum out for a day shopping in a couple of weeks. She never treats herself and I'd like to encourage her to try some new make up and skin products. She likes trying my things when I buy new stuff but we have different skin and colourings so never looks quite right on her. Ideally I'd like to book her a make over at a counter. Which ones are best for women in their 60s please? Also any top products to recommend?

She's 62! Got her age mixed up with my Dad's. Whoops.

Bobbi Brown would be great. Hannah Martin, Bobbi Brown's pro makeup artist has tutorials for mature skin on her youtube channel.

If you are anywhere near London, these people are transformational. They do not advertise, manufacture everything in London (Battersea). They have been well known by professional makeup artists for ever, but are brilliant for the more mature newbie, too.

Importantly, absolutely no pressure to buy, lots of lovely services like makeup lessons

Nice idea. I'm 61 and I'd say Bobbi Brown too although I've only ever bought their foundation which I like very much: not too heavy, spreads easily and a good colour match. But I'd pick them because I've always found the staff very friendly and not too intimidating.

My mil 69 swears by bare minerals. She also got me hooked on Liz Earle.

Thanks everyone. Will book a make over at Bobbi Brown. We're not near London unfortunately.
