Hi everyone!
I could really use some help figuring out makeup for my mom. She’s 60, Indian, with deep brown skin and very soft skin texture overall but she has some acne scarring from when she was younger. She also has noticeable under-eye bags which is what she’s most self-conscious about covering.
She’s really never worn makeup besides Kajal eyeliner and lipstick. She is looking for products that won’t feel too out of her comfort zone and will still look natural / feel light on her skin. I think what she is looking to get out of the makeup is to mostly improve skin appearance, especially under eye region. And I think easy application is very important to her, no crazy complicated routine.
I’m planning to buy a few products and test them with her this weekend to see what she likes and what works best. I can go to Ulta and Sephora for products.
I am kind of at a loss honestly. Any general guidance for makeup for mature skin? What kind of skin prep is necessary? Should I look for a good concealer or an overall complexion product or both? Any recommendations for those? Should I recommend she use any other products like blush or is it unnecessary?
She won’t have me around when she’s doing her makeup in the future, so the goal is to find products and techniques she can manage on her own once we’ve experimented together.
I’d really, really appreciate any advice, product recs, or suggestions. Thank you so much in advance!
