    Looking and feeling the best you can for your age is the healthy way to be.   These ten tips can help with this…

    1. Mascara on the lower lashes can accentuate fine lines under the eyes and create shadows no matter how good the quality of mascara is so only apply to the top lashes.
    2. Hair too long can visually drag the face down.  This depends on the condition of your hair and face shape also.  Most of the time shoulder length or shorter hair is more flattering as you age especially if the face has thinned in shape.
    3. If your hair is coloured ask your hairdresser about the best colour to use as you age.  Softness in colour is going to be more flattering rather than harsh blondes or black/dark brown.  This will all depend on skin colour and natural hair colouring.  Contrast will be more muted as we age.
    4. Keeping healthy with adequate water intake which would be 6-8 glasses of water on average.  As we age we tend to not respond to thirst as quickly.  Healthy food with a well balanced diet including protein, fruit and vegetables.  Adequate daily exercise is important also on average at least two hours a week in total. 
    5. The 3 S’s are the main factors which can age skin and our health a lot quicker – Smoking, Sun and Stress
    6. Stained or yellowed teeth.  Our teeth do usually darken with age just as hair lightens!  A good quality whitening toothpaste can help with this.  Also speak with your dentist about options.  Tooth Mousse is also a way to protect your tooth enamel from acidic or staining food and drink.
    7. Using good quality skincare.  Cleansing, toning and moisturising morning and night is really important especially as we age.   Use a specific night cream at night.  Use a day cream with SPF15+ and use a good body moisturiser every day.
    8. Too much makeup and also makeup that is too dark can add age to our faces.  Lighter and brighter rather than dark, deep colours in lipsticks especially is best.  
    9. Ensure your foundation garments are the right fit and shape for your body.  Arrange to have a bra fitting if you are unsure about whether you have changed in shape as you age.  Bra straps need tightening? You may be surprised about this difference this can make.
    10. Wearing the best clothing and accessory colours for your skin, hair and eye colour will ensure that you always look glowing and fresh no matter what age you are.  Recommendation is  to have a colour analysis at least every ten years.

    Best tip of all is …

    Keep happy and fulfilled doing some of what you love to do every day.  Do what you love and love what you do applies for any age …

  • Six Core Needs and Our Wardrobe

    Six Core Needs and Our Wardrobe

    How Do these Core Needs Affect our Decision Making

    At our Life Coaching Course this weekend we went into the Six Core Needs and how they affect how we make decisions.  This got me thinking about how we make our wardrobe choices.

    I figured as with choosing what to eat for dinner day to day and week to week wardrobe choices can depend largely on how your core needs are balanced.

    The two core needs which are more spiritual “Growth and Contribution” may affect the way we choose our clothes.  If  we want to improve our style of dressing and grow our sense of style.  Maybe constantly learning new makeup techniques and exploring tips and tricks can relate to “Growth”.  “Contribution” may change how our wardrobe is split up with the clothes that we wear when say, contributing to charity events.  Also when we are sorting our wardrobe whether we make a conscious effort to donate to charity or give to friends and family.

    The core needs of “Significance” and “Connection”  may be to do with whether we like to “dress to impress” or dress to build rapport and “connection” with our peers.

    The core needs of “Certainty” and  “Variety” –  depending on how those needs are weighted for an individual may determine whether they dress according to their mood at the time or whether they plan ahead.  People who like “certainty” would feel panicked if they did not have every item sorted prior to attending an important event.  They may love dressing in a uniform.  Someone who favours “variety” may love the spontaneity of  creating an outfit at short notice.  As well as a variety of clothing combinations they may like a variety of choice each day rather than have that certainty of knowing what to wear.

    We all have differing levels of these core needs and there are some which are inbuilt and some which are consciously developed.

    Do you like certainty or variety?  Do you like significance and to be noticed or to slip under the radar quite often?  Do you thrive on connection or prefer time alone?

    I have discovered that I love the variety – wondering if you have ever worked out which core needs are most important to you?

    We are all different and so much can determine how we make choices and decisions:

    • Culture
    • Genes
    • Upbringing
    • Education
    • Beliefs
    • Religion
    • Core Beliefs
    • Gender
    • Experiences
    • Financial circumstances
    • Relationships
    • Status
    • Career
    • Lifestyle

  • Changes in Lifestyle

    Changes in Lifestyle

    How Have you Changed Over the Years?

    Lifestyle changes may mean you have put on  weight and/or your skin may have become dull.   It is always helpful to have the support and encouragement of someone who has your best interests at heart.  Enlisting an expert can help you cope with changes to your lifestyle.

    Style and Clothing – Fashion and style can become stressful if you dont know where to start.  Here ere are a couple of tips:

    1. As you go to put something on in your wardrobe if it doesnt “rock your boat” put it aside – Your personal stylist can help you work out why it is you always bypass this item of clothing.  
    2. Choose some favourite pieces and keep them in your wardrobe.   Is there a common theme with these clothes? Do they work for your current lifestyle?
    3. A personal stylist can give you ideas on how to wear those favourite clothes. They can help you work out why they are your favourites. By making changes you can feel as though you have a whole new wardrobe.
    4. Experiment with your clothes, try  some mixing and matching, try different colours, see what is trending these days and most importantly what is  comfortable and “feels right”.  
    5. Even in countries where changes in seasons are not very distinct it is nice to have seasonal changes in your wardrobe – usually  bright colours in summer and more subdued, subtle colours for winter depending on your colour palette.
    6. Innerwear is as important as outerwear.  Determine your right size and have a professional fitting.  Changes to your lingerie can also make a difference to your whole look.  Just like the foundation for a house, if our foundation garments are good it creates a much better shape.

    Makeup and Accessories – Makeup enhances natural beauty and is a way to express yourself. Eyeliner and/or a quality mascara and a bold lipstick that matches well with your skin tone is one way to make changes to your look.

    Accessories from bags to foot wear, necklaces, bracelets and earrings help you to achieve a stylish look to go with the changes in your lifestyle.

    Skincare – Not all individuals have the same type of skin, some have oily skin and others can have dry, sensitive or normal skin A product range that works for you will be individual and this is why it is good to have a range that you can “try before you buy”.  Not every range suits every person and this is a personal choice.  Ask the advice of a Beauty Therapist. Skin changes as we age and as well as skin types there are different skin conditions to cope with.   If you are trying a product out give the range at least 28 days for skincare to work as our skin renews every 28 days. 

    For advice on coping with style, skincare and cosmetics to go with changes in your lifestyle contact Moana Robinson from Beauty Glow.

     

  • Lipstick On The Go

    Lipstick On The Go

    Lipstick and Lip Gloss

    Lipstick and or Lip Gloss can make a huge difference to how you look and feel.

    Whether you prefer lipstick or lip gloss here are a few tips to help you with fast, easy application:

    1. If you are applying lipstick straight from the stick start at the centre of your bottom lip as this is the widest part of your mouth so its hard to go wrong here – blend towards the corners.
    2. If you want to really get the cupids bow exact start with your lipliner by marking a little cross in the cupids bow and keep within these lines
    3. For a long lasting matte finish blot your lips with a tissue after first lipstick application to remove excess colour and re-apply a couple of times
    4. For the gloss “kiss” test try on the back of your hand.  Quality longer lasting lip gloss will not leave too much of a mark.
    5. Remember to check for stray lippy on teeth by running your tongue over your teeth (a good friend or partner will let you know if you have forgotten to do this)
    6. Applying lipstick or gloss without a mirror?  We all have friends who are great at this! With a bit of practice it can be done – avoid using very dark colours if attempting this.  If you can apply lipliner at home around the lip edge and then fill in this also it is a good base.  Then while out apply lipstick or lip gloss to the middle of the lips and blend outwards with your little finger.
    7. Cant find your purse mirror but need to use one?  reverse your camera on your phone – I have seen an elderly woman do this while out and was very impressed.
    8. Have a lipstick colour for different seasons and outfits but ensure they are in your colour palette.  Lip glosses can be used to tone down or soften lipstick which may be darker than you would like.  Lip glosses also add that touch of glamour if you are going from daytime to night time makeup on the go.
    9. Not sure of your palette?  Part of the Colour Consultation at Beauty Glow is a Five Minute Face Makeup where the colours including lipstick are all written down for you.
    10. It is fun to attend a workshop such as a Beauty Glow Makeup Class or Sassy Circle Workshop where you have a whole selection of lipsticks and lip glosses to try.

    Remember to keep in mind the rest of your makeup when applying lipstick and to focus on emphasising the eyes OR the lips as too much makeup on both can detract from your natural beauty instead of enhancing it.  Have fun and try some colours you may not have worn before.  You will soon see what suits you and what doesnt.  Lipsticks in particular are dependent on whether your colouring is light or dark, warm or cool and other factors.

  • Personal Styling and Makeup

    Personal Styling and Makeup

    A Personal Stylist Can Help with Wardrobe AND Makeup

    Makeup is something which some women love to apply and others are not so keen.  Do you feel irritated when you go to apply makeup every day or for a special occasion and arent sure that your foundation is quite the right colour – or your eye shadow isnt enhancing your eyes but doing the opposite.   So maybe sometimes you just don’t bother with makeup? The best way to gain confidence with applying makeup is to seek assistance from a professional stylist or makeup artist.. Every season that comes around your skin changes due to weather conditions and/or tanning or losing your tan. Every year that goes by we need to re-evaluate our makeup and skincare.

    A personal stylist is a person who advises you on clothing for your body shape and personal colouring accessories and make-up. It is a recognized profession. Some people are of the opinion that a stylist only handles the wardrobe garments and nothing else. However they do cover every aspect of image from hair styling to makeup, clothing to footwear and accessories.. A personal stylist is a professional certified from a recognized academy and is there to help you with so much.

    The best base for a makeup is a smooth healthy complexion. Here are some tips to get you started:

    1. Remember sunscreen especially in the summer months.
    2. Don’t forget to use cleanse, tone and moisturise morning and night with quality skincare products to get flawless and smooth skin.
    3. Go for a light shade while selecting lipsticks for a fresh and natural look to your lips.
    4. If you are unsure about wearing makeup you can use a bronzer instead of blush; it will help your skin to maintain a sun-kissed glow.
    5. Find out from your stylist or makeup artist how to highlight your eyelids but usually two or three colours are going to give you the most contour,
    6. Eyeliner can be worn in different shades. like deep warm brown or soothing blue color.

    Once you have hired the services of a personal stylist you need not worry about special occasions or events whether it is a wedding ceremony, business conference or simply a get together. You can get a different look according to the type of occasion. Your Personal Stylist can help you select the best outfit for the occasion along with the makeup and accessories. They can also give you advice on hairstyles depending on the outfit selected for the occasion.

    Create your own style statement and gain confidence in wearing the colours, shape, style in garments, footwear and accessories plus the skincare and makeup that best suits you and your lifestyle. Contact Moana from Beauty Glow for confidential, friendly and professional advice.

    “They say normally only 10 percent of the human brain is ever used.  I believe this is often true of our hearts and spirits as well.  I believe that we are here on this planet to make the most of what we’ve got and who we are, and contribute to the world so it’s a little better when we leave it.  I’m not saying that putting on makeup will change the world or even your life, but it can be a first step in learning things about yourself you may never have discovered otherwise.” Kevin Aucoin from his introduction in “Face Forward” by Kevin Aucoin
