Boho Chic Inspired Makeup For Older Women - Style Guide - Look Fabulous Forever

Hello my name is Sally and today I have my lovely model Jill with me and what we're going to do today is to do another one of our style guide series with Jill. I hope you don't mind me saying Jill you are 62 and looking wonderful and she is warm toned and the look that we're going to do on Jill today is boho chic so a very natural warm sun-kissed bronze just very sort of relaxed look boho chic is bohemian um kind of goes back to maybe the late 60s when they were sort of like slightly hippie but the chic element means it's a little bit more of an elegant look to this so but very relaxed sun-kissed natural hopefully you'll enjoy yourself today thank you so much for being our model oh you're welcome so I have just popped some um clips into Jill's hair um Jill has already prepped her skin by using her moisturizer um in the morning and she's got amazing skin so actually doing the uh the base will be quite simple because we're not going to have to do anything we're not going to do anything heavy anyway on you um she's already used a little bit of lip balm on her lips as well so her lips are nice and moist so we are ready to go the first product that I'm going to use on Jill is the smooth like silk face prime um this is my hero product this is the product that got me into using look fabulous forever in the first place um and it is a primer to use underneath foundation or beauty balm so this product has got um it's really lovely it's got aloe vera in it um and it's got silica so you need a couple of pumps and then I'm just going to pop it all over your face not on your eyes and not on your lips so I like to use this um with my fingers and what this does it fills in any open pores or if you've got I know it's like a it's like I want to bath in it I want to bathe in it um and just makes your skin really really really smooth so that when you put your base on um it goes on so much better because as we get older our skin becomes a lot more like blotting paper really so foundation often goes a bit patchy um this stops that fills in any fine lines um open pores and it means that your foundation or your light look beauty prime will stay on all day it's just absolutely for me a fantastic product yeah you feel actually feel your feel your cheeks oh yeah it's brilliant isn't it smooth like silk it's exactly it really is what it says so jill caught the sun a little bit at the weekend because I think we were taken by surprise she got some sunshine so she's got a little bit of redness that she said she doesn't normally have so what I'm going to use it's really useful if happens to you is our color balance neutralizer in green green counteracts redness um so it's important to put it on before you put your foundation or your light look beauty balm on so I do at this stage so I'm going to just put a little bit onto my hand it really is green promise you will not look like the incredible hulk s at the end of this this is really good also if you've got broken capillaries um just rosacea redness it's a fantastic product but as you can see it is green you don't need very much so I'm just gonna put it on then with my finger I'm just adding it in so green counteracts redness we've got a peach one as well which is really good if you've got um sort of brown or really dark circles under the eyes or really bad pigmentation but green is for the red if you can see already I'm not letting jill see anything at the moment but you watching um might be able to see hopefully that the redness has just toned down a little bit with the green okay so the product I'm going to use now um is will give that really lovely boho sunkissed natural look and it's our light look beauty balm um which is going to use shade 01 on jill this has got argan oil in it as well so it's it gives coverage so it's a little bit more than a tinted moisturizer but not quite as heavy as our continuous cover foundation which is still a light coverage but this is this is lighter and sheerer but it will still give you some coverage so I'm going to slightly sort of stipple it on first goes on it looks a little bit sort of orangey but once it's blended it just blends beautifully to your skin tone as you will see when we have finished so I'm stippling it on to the areas where I put the green and then just a little I quite like to hold my foundation brush quite firmly like I do with my blusher brush so I can control control it a little bit more make it a little bit sort of um it gives a lovely sort of slightly dewy look this light look beauty balm blended it in with the brush and what I like to do then is just use my hands or my fingers you could do this yourself just to tap in and just make sure everything is really well blended so as you can see that's given a really nice natural look but just a little bit more even we're going to even it out with a bit of concealer now just to finish the dewy base I am going to use the concealer the cover to cover concealer in shade number two this is a lovely creamy concealer and it's got tea tree which is also good for redness so it will also help with the redness I'm going to use my concealer brush number four and just a tiny bit heavier it's a little bit more coverage than the light look beauty balm but as I said it's still creamy so I'm just stippling Jill has hardly got any dark circles around her eyes but if you have got a little bit of darkness it's really good just to put it here and then I take my ring finger and just tap the concealer into place I quite like to use it on the inner corner of the eye as well just to brighten that area if there's any little tiny red bits or any little blemishes you can just knock there off but it's a really nice product just to use the redness just here so just go over that what I'm going to do now we've finished the base we put the concealer on I'm going to just make sure that it holds all day but I want it to not look cakey some powders are a little bit cakey this one the translucent powder is really really finely milled so it will not look like you're wearing a powder but it will still set your makeup so I'm just going to dust a little bit over particularly where we've put the green colour corrector underneath it will hold that in place by setting it with powder it's just so fine you don't look like you are wearing powder at all it's what we want we want to keep that lovely dewy natural look I'm just going to put a little bit also just on the outer corners of Jill's eyes to catch any spillages that we might have from our eye makeup what I'm going to use now is Smooth Out Eye Prime on Jill's eyes before I start her eye makeup and this is really great it has coconut oil in and it does two things it will basically cover over any tiny fine veins that a little bit discoloration that we all have on our eyelids as we age and so that when we put the eyeshadow on it will go on as a true colour and it also will hold the eyeshadow in place all day and stop it from creasing which is a problem that a lot of people have with eyeshadows the secret is to not use very much tiny tiny amount tiny really tiny it lasts a long time this product you can either put it on with your fingers clean and dry make sure your eyelids are clean dry and oil free popping this onto Jill's lid it's a really neutral colour I'm just bringing it up to where I will be putting the eyeshadow on choose your fingers just to blend it in a little bit such a clever product but the secret really is to use it very sparingly on dry clean oil-free lips that's the key so I'm going to use Never Feather Lip Prime now on Jill's lips so that when it has time to dry before I do her lipstick this is a really again a clever product that you just use on the outer edge of your lips don't put it all over your lips and it will stop any feathering and bleeding of lipstick which as we get older we have slightly more finer lines and sometimes lipsticks migrate into those lines this product stops that happening it's very clever but don't put it all over your lips people think they should put it all over just on the outer edge so that just gives that time to dry to go with a sort of natural look and to really even more bring out Jill's stunning blue eyes I'm going to use the Warm Browns Trio and the these colours are beautiful because they are matte they are natural there's a cream cocoa and chocolate so I'm going to start with cream all over the lid the fact that it's a matte shade is really flattering on old eyes can't really go on they're very gentle products as well they're very gentle colours and I'm using I'm applying it with my eyeshadow brush number seven I'm going to layer up a little bit here with a natural look I'm now going to use the middle colour cocoa over the cream so it'll be quite a strong but it'll still be a nice warm colour and bringing it a little bit higher above the socket line just a nice warm not too dark not too light pretty brown colour one of my favourites I'm now blending that colour a little bit more just out to in little firm short strokes just soften the edges of the colour this brush is brilliant for doing that lovely soft brush I'm doing it out to in so that I don't take it too low it's easy to blend it too far down sometimes so out in soft strokes I'm now going to use our lovely soft eyeliner in dark brown just just above Jill's top lashes she's actually got lovely lashes but they're very fair so by putting a little bit of eyeliner on it will give them that little bit of extra oomph at the base before we put the mascara on I'm going to use a different colour underneath I want it to be a softer underneath but I think this would be really nice on the top always looks a little bit odd when you put eyeliner on before you put mascara on in fact some people like to do their mascara first so that they can then judge how much eyeliner to put on and that might be something you want to try yourself but I'm going to do it at this stage they are so soft that they don't drag at all so I'm using little short strokes which is much easier to do than trying to do one long perfect line keeping it as close to the lash line as you can think to yourself I'm drawing on the base of my lashes and then I lift it very slightly at the outer edge which has the effect of just lifting your eye to come just over halfway so I've also put a little bit of the darkest shade chocolate just on this little bit here and here just to define that a little bit more and I'm now going to blend that in using my lovely blender brush so one colour just melts into another now using my favourite wedge brush number eight I'm going to go over the top line that I use the chocolate eyeliner on with the chocolate eyeshadow this will do two things it will soften the line slightly and it will set it because you're putting a powder on so just a little bit of this just take off the excess on the back of your hand so press the colour into the base of your lashes on this if you don't want to use an eyeliner is a wonderful technique alone I like to do both because I feel that it sets the eyeliner and softens it slightly so I'm going to go for a slightly softer lighter colour underneath Jill's lower lashes I'm going to use warm taupe which is a pretty colour a little bit see it's slightly lighter than the chocolate and the dark brown so again so we put a little bit of warm taupe underneath I'm actually going to go over that one using the wedge brush with the middle one again the cocoa which is again a little bit lighter a little bit but it will set it and this will really bring out the blue in your eyes so I'm going to use live lash mascara in brown for this look just to keep in with the whole brown natural earthy sort of look it's a really pretty brown not too dark not too light and this will make a difference to Jill's bare lashes mascara is really lovely because it's not lumpy or clumpy it just gives colour so if you look down slightly and then just open a little bit so before finishing off Jill's beautiful eyes with the bring back brow I'm going to use instant bright highlight just underneath the brow I quite like to do that before I've done the brow so that I can then even it up so this is a fantastic product for highlighting I'm going to use it various places so it's a little clicky pen and I'm going to actually put it on with my concealer brush number four just putting a little bit underneath the highest part Jill's brow because that is already further forward and the highlighter will just bring it forward a little bit more and make her brow area look crisper when we put the bring back brow product on Jill has already got lovely brows but I'm just going to enhance them slightly in a very natural way using bring back brow shape in blonde and I'm going to use my spoolie brush first of all just to groom them into shape so and then I'm going to take the product and shake it really important to shake it it has a little ball bearing in it it is a paint it's a very very special product because it has a very fine paintbrush so if even if you have absolutely no brow hair at all you can actually put in little feathery strokes to enhance your your brows and if you have got brows but you just want to fill in little gaps or give them a little bit more definition then this is the product to use this color is actually very similar very similar to Jill's natural color if you are a warm blonde medium brown this is a really good color to use we do have a brown one which is a little bit darker and a grey one same so I'm just doing little fine feathery strokes secret to the bring back brow is after you've applied it to use a spoolie brush again this is brush number six just to soften the effect makes all the difference we have completed Jill's eyes still very natural but nice warm colors and we're going to give her a little bit of warmth now with blusher and a bit of bronzer so I'm going to use the beautiful desert rose shade in our fabulous brush blusher it's a cream to powder blusher so I personally like to apply it with my fingers and then blend it with a brush just beyond the middle of Jill's eye and I'm sort of dabbing it and tapping it because we've used the green so I don't want to drag too much but it's a lovely color for actually both warm or cool really nice sort of mid-depth blusher so I'm now using my blusher brush and just blending it a little bit you can put it on with a blush blusher brush if whatever you prefer and just to finish that sun-kissed look you can't do that without the amazing enduring summer bronze which looks a little bit scary when you open it it doesn't come out nearly as sort of orangey as it looks if you just want a hint of warmth this is a fantastic product to use so I'm going to pop this where you naturally get sun-kissed so the top of your forehead and just again on the tiny bit over that blusher on the top of the cheekbones so and then a little bit I like to put a little bit just on the jawline as well again like a three shape is a good way to remember it because we've gone for that little warm natural look another tip that I sometimes use is to use a tiny bit of bronzer in the eye area too and if you don't want to use eyeshadow but you want to have a little bit of warmth on your eyes a little bit of bronzer just here and here can do that for you I'm going to use a fairly fairly nude slightly warm colour as my lip liner on Jill using the Defining Lip Liner in Rosemary so I'm just going to outline Jill's lips first and then I'm going to fill in with the pencil so that we've got a stain of colour all over Jill's lips tickle you with this these are so soft that they're really easy to use and now I'm going to use our beautiful True Coral lipstick and it's got jojoba oil in so really kind of nourishing and hydrating it's a nice warm really summery sun-kissed boho look using my lip brush number five just to get a really nice sharp look you might want to just put it on directly from the bullet but if you want a professional look a lip brush will always help you do that and to finish the look I'm going to use Gorgeous Gloss Lip Shine in Cinnamon Kiss which is a lovely warm colour I'm not going to put it all over but I'm going to put it just in the centre of Jill's lips okay so that's the first part of our styling done we've done the makeup on Jill what we're going to do now is to style her hair and get her changed into her boho clothes and then we'll come back and do the big reveal for you okay thank you so much so we have completed the styling of Jill now and we have curled her hair slightly in a nice natural way and
