I am lost in a sea of on-line ads and would appreciate some personal recommendations please.
Context: used to wear full make up in my professional job in my youth but haven’t done so for years while raising dc, have outdoor lifestyle. Children have now left home and I have more bandwidth to devote to my appearance, skin care and make up etc, but crikey, where to start? The products have all changed in twenty or so years! My make-up bag is literally empty apart from an emery board and an old lipstick! 😁
Fair-ish combination skin with yellow undertones prone to redness on cheeks and nose and from over-heating! Used to have mouse hair but now it’s grey, Also quite sensitive to the feel of things on my face and eyes. Can’t bear heavy make up!
Also, I’m not made of money and Trinny and Jones Road seem quite expensive although I have tried a few tiny testers and have been impressed, especially by JR Vitamin face base. Are there other cheaper brands that do the job?
To be honest I don’t know what BB creams are or miracle blurs or whatever? Can someone explain to me what I need in a very simple way? I can’t be doing with anything too complicated!
I am looking for a combined sun protector, and tinted moisturiser. I think! Open to advice!
A combined blusher and lipstick,
And a good mascara to start.
Do people still wear powder nowadays?
Can anyone help please?
