[Music-Playing] This is Ella, and today we are going to show on Ella how to create a younger look on more mature skin. I want to show you the things to avoid and the things to look for in trying to achieve a younger and more youthful appearance. One of the things is the one of the first things that I use actually is my freeze frame. This is sort of look like bow tacks in a jar it is a wrinkles solution cream and it fills the lines likes spackle actually so it mix in instant difference in the skin and you will feel dramatic firming. And this should be the first thing to touch your skin because you want it to actually work. If you put a moisturizer first or anything else, first you sort of creating a barrier between the freeze frame and your skin, and you suppose to apply the freeze frame leave it for two minutes and then re-apply. If someone has lines around the lips you know on the upper lip it is great for diminishing that as well. At this can also be used as a preventive measure. So that is moisturizer on top of the freeze firm because that would not dilute the freeze frame in any way. So this is the ultimate therapy cream. It is a moisturizer that has every antioxidant vitamin known to man kind. And now that we have done now we are going to do a little concealer on the eyes and then we want to do a foundation. It is my Diva cream facial liquid powder and you want just a little bit to even up then complexion. And now we are going to do dark eyeliner on the upper lash line. And this is really going to lift your eyes. And you do not want to use black because black can be very aging and harsh and brown sometimes does not have enough impact. So I will do a very dark brown or mahogany color the perfect color I am using right now is sort of a combination of brown and black. Open please, a little black on mascara to the upper lash line only. This is what I call my anti gravity make up routine, everything goes up two things that disappear as you get older are the brow line and the lip line. They both get thinner. So filling in the brow line and the lip line can add years to a persons features. We want to stay in the realm of reality so we are going to use a bland pencil to soften her brow line but also make the shapes stronger. So a brow line can be made to looks strong it does not mean it has to be dark. That is a very common mistake people use colors that are too dark for their eye brows and it looks very obvious. And when it comes to eye shadows and blush you want to avoid shimmery colors you want to avoid anything too glossy and you want to keep it very matt and soft. Somebody use my live blush it is matt and can have a light reflective appearance that is fine but you want to avoid really shimmery products. With the blush brush I am going to sweep it right over the eyes. And when it takes the same blush I am going to apply to your cheeks and with the blush it is very important you want this to be the highest most the strongest point of color on the high part of the cheek bone. Same reason is you do a dark liner on the upper lash line. You want this to be the strongest point of color someone looks at you their eyes unconsciously drawn upwards. So you start from the apple of the cheeks and then just go straight up and always sort of clean up the brush up here by the eyes. You can take a little translucent powder and go over it with the translucent powder. And with the powder you just go over it you now whiting it of but you just blending it in. So there looks natural and not like you have make up a longer your jaw line. Then lips this is always a big issue with more mature women some women feel washed out with brown based lipstick. They feel they need a brighter color I say brighter colors are great and you should use them because a bright color can really wake up your entire face. Even if everything is like warmer of tones use a bright lipstick it really can be very youthful. I am going to use a gloss also because a gloss is also moisturizing and it makes the lips look very juicy and moist. And a moist lip is a youthful lip. So this is a bright color called hot blush and it looks great on you. And then I am going to build up a lip a little bit with the pencil. And the reason we want to do that is as I said earlier you want to make the lips and the brow line a little bit fuller to give you more youthful appearance. So I do gloss first so I see exactly where when I need the pencil we are need to build up the lip. I stay in what I called the realm of reality I stay on the lip line but when I towards fullness. There you have it, very beautiful. [Music-Playing]
