natural makeup

A natural makeup tutorial for women over 40. Because I think there is not enough inspiration in the media for women over 40, made by women over 40, I asked my good friend and colleague Esther van Maanen (49) to create this natural makeup tutorial for &Bloom.

 

I’ve known Esther for many years and worked with her on many photoshoots. A while ago I asked her if she could give me some makeup tips for different occasions. After turning 40 and giving birth to my son (at age 40), I’ve been having some trouble with my old makeup ways. My skin is (of course) different from when I was 35.

The advice Esther gave me, helped me a lot to make slight changes to my own routines. I thought it would be a great idea to show you how Esther applies her own looks on her beautiful self because she is such a beautiful aging woman.

In this tutorial the first look: Natural Makeup for fierce women over 40 (and up).

 
For this look Esther used the following products:
  • foundation primer radiance by Laura Mercier
  • skin veil by Ellis Faas
  • concealer by Ellis Faas
  • secret blurring powder for under eyes by Laura Mercier
  • airbrush flawless finish by Charlotte Tilbury

This community originated from my love for photography, fashion, lifestyle, and consciousness. After I turned 40 I started to miss inspiring websites with coolness and authenticity towards aging.
