It’s always the perfect time to treat yourself to at least one favorite thing. Makeup for women over 40 cand be tricky. Never fear, I’ve got 3 ideas that will put a smile on your face all year long…
It Cosmetics Je Ne Sais Quoi Complexion Perfection Palette
This is an excellent gift for yourself! These are flattering colors for most skintones, and the Bye Bye Pores formulas help blur pores and imperfections. It’s a simple palette of blush, bronzer, highlight, and translucent powder. You will be reaching for this all year. It travels well, I even toss it into my purse sometimes, but I normally carry a large purse. If you’re interested in my full review, CLICK HERE.
If you’d rather pick up something a little cheaper, I suggest…
NYX Cosmetics Love Contours All Palette
It has gorgeous, neutral, natural colors. So you won’t buy it and then use just one color before throwing it out. I’m not kidding when I say that I love all of these colors. Just look at them. But what makes this palette amazing is that it is not chalky and drying. Lots of palettes have great colors, but if the formula sucks and makes you look older, what good is it?

Update May 2019: This is now 50% off on the NYX website. I wonder if it will be discontinued, so grab it while you can! And at 50% 🙂
Clarisonic Foundation Makeup Blending Brush
If you have a Clarisonic for cleansing, this attachment is amazing! Besides blending foundation to airbrushed perfection, it blends any cream product like blush, bronzer or contouring. It’s a time saver, as it blends so quickly and it does a way better job than I ever could! You will thank yourself for this. If you’re interested in my full review, CLICK HERE.
So these are a few of my favorite things. Why wait for the dog to bite, or for the bee to sting?
It’s just smart planning to give yourself some favorite things.
And then you won’t feel so bad.
