Fashionable makeup trends 2024-2025 for those over 40
mystyle.decorexpro.com/en/ has already talked about makeup for ladies for 40 years,
which is young... And today we propose to find out about the new make-up for the autumn-winter season 2024-2025. Naturally, with adaptation to the age of over 40, because here the make-up must be thorough, thoughtful and very stylish. Here are 10 of the top trends to watch out for.
Trend # 1: natural makeup
One of the main trends for the cold season 2024-2025 is maximum naturalness and naturalness. Everyone's favorite nude makeup will again be on the wave of popularity, and that's great! Indeed, at the age of over 40, bright colors and shades, contrasting arrows and smokey ice, glitters and sparkles will hardly be appropriate. But a skillfully done “makeup without makeup” will be a great option for every day.
This does not mean, of course, that there is no need to paint at all. AND
take care of the skin of the face you also need to be especially careful. But your make-up should be dominated by natural shades, flesh colors, beige and brown tones.
Trend # 2: naturally glowing skin
No matter how expensive your lipstick is, no matter how beautiful and bright your shadows are, if the skin is uneven and with imperfections, it will all look sloppy and ugly. Therefore, first of all, you need to pay attention to skin care, and secondly, to the tonal base. It should perfectly match your complexion, hide imperfections, but not be very dense.
It is better to choose liquid textures with light shimmery particles. But forget about highlighters and bronzers: at the age of 40, the radiance of the skin should be very light and delicate, barely noticeable and as natural as possible.
Trend # 3: classic red lipstick
Red lipstick shades will never go out of fashion, because this is a real classic. Red lipstick can be used in daytime makeup as well. But at the same time it must be remembered that the tone of the face should be perfectly even, and if the emphasis is on the lips, then the eyes can be easily tinted with mascara.
The shade of lipstick should definitely match your color type. That is, if you have pale skin, blonde hair, and blue or gray eyes, it is better to choose a red lipstick with a cool pinkish undertone. And vice versa: if the skin is warm peach or dark, eyes are green or brown, then terracotta, brick, orange-red shades will suit you.
Trend # 4: glossy lip gloss
If you prefer to use red lipstick only for the evening or gala, you can use a glossy gloss during the day. This is a real hit of the season, which literally flooded the catwalks. The shine should be exactly glossy, uniform, without sparkles, shimmer or pearlescent overflows.
You can buy shine with some shade - peach, pink, berry. Or you can use a transparent glossy gloss with different shades of lipstick, applying on top. Gloss hides age-related changes, as if fills in all the wrinkles and cracks on the lips, makes the lips much more voluminous.
Trend # 5: light natural eyebrows
Fluffy eyebrows that are too wide are already out of fashion. Today, the most natural eyebrows are relevant, with a natural natural curve, of moderate width, which do not distort facial features. It is not necessary to outline the eyebrows too clearly, and especially not to draw a square inner corner at the bridge of the nose - this immediately betrays the unnaturalness of the make-up.
In priority, fairly light eyebrows (especially if you are blonde), emphasized with powder or shadows, and not a sharp pencil. You can also style your eyebrows with a special gel or wax to give them a neat shape.
Trend # 6: no shooters!
The clearly traced arrows in front of our eyes are receding into the past.It must be remembered that with age, the eyes change their shape, the outer corners are often lowered. Therefore, clearly outlined eyeliner or dark pencil eyes will only give out these age-related changes. This means that this trend is very good for us!
It is better to emphasize the eyes with shadows, using light natural shades for the movable upper eyelid, and slightly darker (brown or graphite) for the outer corner and for the lower eyelid. Arrows will be inappropriate even in a bright evening make-up, it is better to prefer a discreet smokey ice to them.
Trend # 7: smoky eyes in a light haze
Speaking of smoky eyes. Too dark shadows, shaded black pencil, graphite shimmer - all this remains in the past. And even more so at the age of 40. You don't want to look like a "panda" with black circles around your eyes.
Fashion designers and make-up experts have offered very discreet smokey for the fall-winter 2024 season. It is a light haze and translucent veil that only slightly sets off your eyes, emphasizing their beauty. Brown and gray shades are allowed, as well as colored shades for an evening out, but in a muted tone: blue, green, purple.
Trend # 8: focus on the inner corner of the eye
And a little more about eye makeup. A great move would be to focus on the inner corner of the eyes, but certainly with light shadows. Here it is proposed to use a light shimmer, and for an evening out, you can even apply glitter shadows with glitter.
Choose very light, almost white, or cream, beige, gold or silver shades. Instead of eyeshadow, you can use a light eyeliner. Gently outline the inner corner of the eye with it and blend. This technique is not only fashionable, it also helps to make the eyes larger, give them shine and visually remove the reddening of the protein.
Trend # 9: monochrome makeup
Another very interesting and unexpected trend that we saw on the catwalks. Monochrome make-up is made in one color. At fashion shows, models were painted in pink, blue, salad, yellow shades, which were used for the eyes and lips.
It is quite clear that such a make-up will be inappropriate for every day. But we suggest using more natural colors and shades. For example, you can paint your eyes with golden shadows, apply a golden shimmer to your cheekbones, and use a nude-beige lipstick with the same light golden finish for your lips. You can also experiment with peach, coral, pink and even lavender shades.
Trend # 10: pastel shades
In autumn and winter, we often miss bright summer or delicate spring shades. Well, if you want more color, it's okay to use restrained pastel tones in your makeup. However, you need to very carefully select the color depending on the shade of your eyes and, again, on your color type.
For a warm type of appearance, green and brown eyes, gentle greenish tones are suitable, for a cold one - silver and blue. We advise you to pay special attention to the lilac shade: it suits both blondes and brunettes, and was very popular at fashion shows with various designers.
