Anyone here 40 or older?

New to this wonderful world of makeup and hoping I'm not to late!

RE: Anyone here 40 or older?

I'm 44 and I'm not much of a makeup wearer. I've taken a few of the makeup classes taught by Sephora.(Smokey eye class and the Contouring class) Those classes are helpful. Try out the classes. You will learn techniques that will last a lifetime. And receive compliments when You do wear makeup.

RE: Anyone here 40 or older?

I'm 46! I've been doing this community for a kooong time. Welcome!

RE: Anyone here 40 or older?

Turning 41 next month 😁 I don't wear a lot of makeup unless it's to a special event, but I'm the last few years I've fallen in love with wearing lipstick, and it's really fun, like putting on war paint before heading off to do battle with the day 😉 What I'm really obsessed with is skincare though, since I've developed breakout woes, you'd think this nonsense would end at puberty, but no just something else to stare at along with my laugh lines.

RE: Anyone here 40 or older?

Wear make up all the time and I've got a few years on all of you! Makes me feel good and enhances assets as you age. So many good products out there that make your skin stay youthful

RE: Anyone here 40 or older?

Yes I 42, and I am finally getting in the habit of wearing makeup but only warm shades to give a soft natural look.

RE: Anyone here 40 or older?

I stopped wearing daily makeup about 7 years ago. I am now almost 41 and find myself trying to find new things to do with my youngest daughter, 17, who is makeup obsessed. I get so tickled to see the shock on her face when I can educate her on a few makeup topics. I also agree in spending more on skin care but, that comes more from dermatology issues as I've aged.

Re: Anyone here 40 or older?

I will be 48 in two weeks. I am addicted to buying makeup. I don't wear much at all but I still can't resist buying it. The Sephora Favorites sets suck me in the most. Crazy, I know !!!!  I am getting where skincare is also becoming an addiction. I am one of those people that takes forever "doing "my face at night just getting ready for bed. Yes, I definitely have a problem but I actually enjoy it. 

Re: Anyone here 40 or older?

Not too late !!! I am 45 and love make up and skin products! Like to try new thing! When I go to Sephora I am like a 16 yr girl playing with all the make up!!! Soo cool there is now age for too late!

Yep! 44 this month :) I could spend days in Sephora!

Yep! 44 this month 🙂 I could spend days in Sephora!

RE: Anyone here 40 or older?

I'm 35. 👋🏻 I just started really getting into makeup and skincare a couple of years ago. You can totally do it. It's not too late at all. I agree with what someone else said-that less is more particularly on our aging skin. Play with products, go to Sephora and ask for samples. I usually always try foundations before I buy. Also, something it took me a whole year to figure out is that skincare is the most important step in makeup looking good. If I had to choose, id spend more money on skincare than makeup. If your skin doesn't look nice, even the most expensive makeup will have a hard time making it look better.

Re: Anyone here 40 or older?

Yep! It's never too late to try new things and take care of yourself so you can look your best. And when your a little older less makeup looks best. Good luck and have fun!
