1. Prepare your face
Start with a clean and moisturized face.
Apply a primer followed by a foundation suitable for lighter coverage.
Conceal any areas that need extra coverage, like under your eyes and around your mouth, using a concealer.
2. Shape your eyebrows
Use a taupe eyebrow pencil to fill in sparse areas of your eyebrows with light, feathery strokes.
Blend the eyebrow pencil with a brush for a natural look.
4. Line your lips
Line your lips with a strawberry lip liner to define the lip shape and prevent lipstick feathering.
Apply a lip primer to prevent lipstick from settling into fine lines.
5. Line your eyes
Use a green eyeliner pencil to line the inner rim of your eyes for a subtle pop of color and added definition.
6. Apply base eyeshadow
Choose a soft olive eyeshadow from a green palette and apply it all over your eyelids as a base color using an eyeshadow brush.
7. Highlight your brow bones
Use a cream shade from a neutral palette to highlight your brow bone for added dimension.
8. Add depth with eyeshadow
Select a deeper green shade from your palette and apply it to the outer half of your eyelids, blending towards the crease for depth.
Use a warm taupe shade to define the crease and add dimension to the eyes.
9. Line your lower lash line
Use a wedge brush to smudge the deeper green eyeshadow along your lower lash line for a soft, smoky effect.
10. Apply mascara
Apply two coats of brown mascara to your upper and lower lashes for definition and volume.
11. Enhance your lash line
Line the inner rim of your lower lash line with a green pencil for added intensity and definition.
12. Clean up the edges
Use concealer on your finger to clean up any edges around the eyes for a polished look.
13. Add shimmer to your eyelids
Apply a shimmering beige eyeshadow to the center of your eyelids to catch the light and add a subtle glow.
Blend it in with your palette brush.
14. Apply blush
Choose a subtle pink blush and apply it to the apples of your cheeks for a natural flush.
Blend it in with a large fluffy brush.
15. Contour
Use a bronzer to lightly contour your cheekbones for added definition.
16. Apply lipstick
Apply a warm-toned lipstick, such as russet, all over your lips straight from the lipstick case.
Add a touch of cinnamon gloss to the center of your lips for a glossy finish and the illusion of fuller lips.

You look beautiful. I am 63 and I really appreciate all the tips!
All good until the application of shimmery shadows. Be very restrained here as shimmery colors enhance wrinkles...no one wants that.
