Viral makeup vs 57yo skin. πŸŽ¬πŸ‘‡

Putting these new trending drops from Maybelline New York to the test to see if they actually work for mature skin, or if they just settle straight into fine lines.

Here is the lineup:
β€’ Super Stay Teddy Tint
β€’ Sunkisser Liquid Glow
β€’ Lifter Stix Bronzer

Spoiler alert: They are incredibly lightweight, hydrating, and feel great on my mature skin without any caking!

πŸ‘‰ Save this post for your next makeup run, and drop a comment letting me know your thoughts or if you've tried any of these yet!

Manifesting blue skies on a rainy day! 🌧️
A little spring outfit inspo✨️

This was my look when I was out and about the other weekend in the gorgeous Dusk set from Eb&ive .

There is nothing better than finding effortless pieces that feel as good as they look, and I am loving this acid wash denim look for Spring.

What do we think of this look? Let me know below! πŸ‘‡ Are you a denim lover like me ? πŸ’™

A little retail therapy at Armani beauty at Myer today! 🀍✨

I was especially keen to play with their Eye Tints and shimmers, and of course, I couldn’t resist trying a few other products while I was there.

I always love meeting people who enjoy chatting about skin and beauty as much as I do. There’s always something new to discover, try and learn!

A few sneaky purchases and some lovely samples came home with me to try.

That was a good hit of endorphins! πŸ˜‚πŸ’„βœ¨

πŸ’‹ A little lip practice at 57!

Thanks It’s MAC is one of my favourite lipsticks, and I’m also loving the Bobbi Brown lip crayons. This one is Rum Raisin. 😍

After picking up some tips from the makeup artist at Mecca in Melbourne, I’ve been practising using lip crayons to create more definition and the appearance of a little extra volume.

Always learning new tricks and having fun with makeup at 57. πŸ’•

Jumping on the viral peel-off lip liner hype! πŸ’‹βœ¨

I picked these up from Priceline Australia during their sales recently.

Let’s see how the Maybelline New York Super Stay Peel Off Lip Liner goes on my natural 57-year-old lips!

I picked up both Haze and Sunset and decided to try Sunset first.

You can use it as a lip liner or all over your lips, which is how I’ve applied it. I left it on for around 3 to 5 minutes before peeling it off, then finished with Maybelline Lifter Gel. πŸ’—

Of course, I had to put the transfer-proof claim to the test! πŸ‘€

And honestly… okay, I admit it, I like it! πŸ’‹

Mascara on over-50 lashes… πŸ‘€πŸ’—

Testing out freezeframe Instant Lash Xtreme in Intense Black. I love how mascara can transform a look, and this one definitely gave my lashes more volume and length. I love the intense black, but I’d also love to see it available in a beautiful brown! 🀎

This was one of the products I won as a competition prize, so I’m sharing my experience with you.

Have you tried this one?

I may be over 50 but I still love putting my best self forward πŸ’—

Meet my new Positano top in pink from The Haven Co. πŸ’–

Of course it’s pink! I love that it’s a little bit chic.

Made from an 80% viscose and 20% linen blend, it feels beautifully soft, with a softly gathered neckline, French seams and an adjustable tie hem for comfort and a fit you can wear your way.

I don’t always feel comfortable wearing a high neckline or having my arms out, but I love how the extended shoulders create that lovely, elegant sleeve effect. It gives the top such a chic look and makes me feel really comfortable wearing a style like this.

I’m all about comfort while still looking a little elevated, and this is one of those pieces I feel totally comfortable in.

And this is how I style it at 57. ✨

A pop of pink? Always a yes! πŸ’•
