Finally, gray hair is now widely accepted as elegant and sexy!
Your beauty routine, however, needs some small changes to fully highlight your natural gray color. That’s why we gathered the 5 best (and simple) makeup tips to follow.
Tip # 1: Mix different base products
It is normal for your skin to change as you grow older. Some of the most common elements we see are fine lines, enlarged pores or discoloration in some places. And although your first impulse may be to cover them, it is better to use your foundation or concealer lightly. Also, try mixing a few drops of liquid highlighter with a light to medium coverage foundation and apply the mixture with a soft, fluffy brush. Diluting your foundation in this way will give a cool, glowing result, while providing the coverage you desire. They are also less likely to wrinkle or install the product on specific areas of the face.
Tip # 2: Focus on your eyebrows
Eyebrows frame every face, regardless of hair color. This, however, becomes especially important with gray hair, which can make you look paler.
I start with an eyebrow pencil to define the tips, which tend to thinner with age. Ideally, choose a shade that looks more like the color of your natural root (before they turn gray). And if you’re not sure, a dark brown color is usually a safe choice.
Extra tip: Finish by applying a brow gel to make them look softer and fuller.
Tip # 3: Highlight your cheeks
Now is not the time to avoid blush. Like the eyebrows, the color on the cheeks is crucial so that you do not look pale. Therefore, lighten your face with a touch of blush on the apples of your face, mixing upwards for a more elevated result.
Extra tip: Peach tones flatter any skin tone because they make the skin glow. Also, creamy formulas tend to look better if you have fine lines.
Tip # 4: Show off your eyes
When you have gray hair, one of the most important things you can do, in terms of makeup, is to highlight your features. This means that eyeliner and / or eye shadow are a must. Specifically, prefer a pencil or eyeliner in a warm brown or navy blue color. It is better to avoid black, as it can make a very strong contrast with your hair and make it look strict. As for eye shadows, prefer warm, matte shades instead of cool and bright.
Tip # 5: An intense lipstick has no age
Neutral colors (like pink or nude) tend not to go well with gray hair. Instead, opt for bolder shades, such as bright berry or peach pink.
In addition, glossy or satin lipsticks tend to be more flattering than matte.
