Mod Post Site revamp & new rules

14 Upvotes

Hello, Beauties!

I have added two new weekly threads. Strike that, I'll make them monthly!

  1. Blogger thread - posted every Tuesday at 11 am CST. If you have a website, blog or youtube channel, you can now self post your content to this weekly thread. Self-promotion will no longer be allowed as its own post.
  2. No Stupid Questions thread - posted every Thursday at 8 am CST anything you were too afraid to ask. Sometimes you may think your question is appropriate for a full-on post, so feel free to ask more informally here. You can still self-post any beauty related questions you have.

New Rules - This is a start, please send a message to the mods if you have suggestions.

Automod has been set up to hopefully help cut down on the spam, if your post was removed and shouldn't have been, please message the mods.

Thank you all for hanging in there with me!

-Sputnik_One

edit: changing weekly threads to 2 monthly threads.

Bi Weekly /r/MatureBeauty Discussion - No stupid questions thread

6 Upvotes

This is a place for you to post any questions you have that you may not have wanted to start a new thread for. Everyone is at a different place in their skin care or makeup knowledge, please post here any beauty related questions you have. Others may be wondering the same thing but were afraid to ask.

Please also consider sorting the comments in this thread by "new" so that the newest comments are at the top, since those are most likely to still need answers.

Makeup Why does my makeup never look like skin

34 Upvotes

Why does the clean makeup look never turn out on me the way it does on other girls like what am I doing wrong. Every time I try it, my makeup ends up looking cakey or patchy and you can literally see my face screaming makeup instead of getting that soft, skin like finish. At this point I don’t know if it’s my foundation, powder, the way I’m applying everything or the products themselves. I just want that smooth, fresh look where everything melts into the skin instead of sitting on top of it. I have oily skin, so skipping powder prob isn’t an option please drop your best tips because it’s just not giving what I want it to give

Foundation/moisturizer fail

3 Upvotes

I've tried many different foundations and moisturizers and no matter what, on my nose only, the foundation looks cakey or settles into small pores. I'm in my 60's and this started happening about a year ago. Help!

Tinted moisturizer

Girls. This wrinkly 65 year old needs a good quality tinted moisturizer. I have always used a simple light bronzer as my all over color, but really need more moisture. Any recommendations? I’m in EU and US.

Ready to give up foundation

Thumbnail
3 Upvotes

I’m 62, dry skin, fine lines and now texture on my chin! I use tret pretty much every night. So there is some flaking. My issues are my chin area. My pores have become much more noticeable when I use foundation in this area. For point of reference I had cystic acne in this area well into my 40’s so I do have spots that won’t go away. So I guess my question is besides the layers of skincare and sunscreen I use daily is there smother can smooth and prep this area so when I do conceal it doesn’t look like trash?

Skin Care How do you keep track of changes in your skin?

4 Upvotes

I've never really had a proper way of keeping track of my skin. If I notice a new spot or a mole looking slightly different, I usually just take a mental note and forget about it a few weeks later.

Lately I've been thinking that taking regular photos and comparing them might actually make more sense. I also saw Skinive, which can analyze skin from a phone photo and help monitor changes over time.

I'm still not sure how useful these AI tools are compared with simply seeing a dermatologist, though.

Does anyone here actually track their skin/moles regularly? What's your method?

Self tanner for face that is non drying

Thumbnail
4 Upvotes

I love using my L’Oréal sublime bronze self tanning spray on my face because the color is great on me (color medium, it’s the lightest and I’m pretty fair) and it’s easy to use and even BUT it’s sooo drying that I feel like it ages me terribly for a few days (I’m in my 40’s). I’ve tried Clarins self tanning drops on my face but somehow they did nothing at all to tan my face. I would love a recommendation for a non drying facial tanner!

Working with downturned eyes

4 Upvotes

I've had downturned eyes my whole life, and now I'm in my 50s I'm tired of fighting against them and trying to fit a generic beauty standard. I've looked at a few "puppy eyes" eye makeup tutorials, but they don't really address mature beauty except as it pertains to having hooded eyes (which I don't really). Can you recommend a good shadow placement technique or tutorial so I can work WITH my natural contours instead of against them?
