Change...funny how one day it just clicks

I know we have all seen the ladies, young and old, who wear to much make up.  I know, I like make up...I always find it a fun part of my day.  Well, unless the humidity is spiking and it is melting off, that makes me pissy!  But these days, I have been noticing, my face at 50...looks to harsh with more make up.  I am finding less is more.  And I think that is for me, a good thing.
We can easily turn into this chica...
Isn't she fun?  lol...the white lipstick, WTH?

As we age, our pores are larger, we get a light "fur" on our face...the droops and sags!  Yep, seeing all of that now.  I never was one to wear heavy base or powder.  I used to love Bare Essentials, but I don't think the coverage is as good as it was at one time.  Or maybe it is me.  Where I see the change is my eyes.  I have been experimenting with liner and mascara.  Lining the upper lid, a whisper on the lower...and mascara on top lashes only.  I am happy with it.  Now if I was going out in the evening, I might add more.  And probably some shadow, day time...no longer.  And if I was working, maybe then I would go back to my old ways...

So now, in this time...this is what I am doing.  Always...eyebrows, eyeliner, mascara and blush...
I would love to hear your thoughts on this too.
