Aging is a process that, unfortunately, none of us can avoid. The truth, however, is that it is a very individual process, and while some people age and change literally before our eyes, others surprisingly resist the so-called tooth of time and change almost imperceptibly. And there are also people whose aging process initially accelerates and who, at a relatively young age, appear older, but then this process significantly slows down and these people, on the contrary, look much younger for a long time than their actual age.
Problems with aging and appearance are dealt with especially by women, who are literally experts in various cosmetic and natural methods that can slow this sad process and alleviate its inevitable signs.
The story of a woman who lives by make-up
We present to you the story of an eighty-seven-year-old woman who has learned to work with make-up truly phenomenally and thus defy time. She has worn it on her face her entire adult life and even at her relatively advanced age she does not intend to stop.
To feel younger and to convince those around her, she devotes herself to her careful make-up every day. In doing so she addresses problems she did not have to deal with before, for example a droopier one side of the face, where it is not easy to apply cosmetics in a way that masks this unevenness.
Also, the edges of her lips are no longer as sharply defined and even, so she tries to recreate them using a lip liner.
Interestingly, unlike the vast majority of other women, this woman does not remove her make-up even at night. Only in the morning does she cleanse and wash her face and the process of applying make-up begins anew.
Another factor that makes applying make-up harder for her is that, due to her age, her eyelashes are gray and mascara therefore adheres to them less well. She also has to apply it very carefully, because the difference between coated and uncoated eyelashes or parts of them would be striking.
Two more steps to perfection
When she is finished with her make-up, two steps remain before she is ready to head out into the streets, namely:
- put on an attractive wig over her pulled-back hair with a youthful, shorter hairstyle, and
- put on bold earrings.
Only in this way does she feel like herself.
