Easy Step-by-step Eye Makeup Tutorial for Mature Eyes

Try out this step-by-step eye makeup for mature eyes if you’re over 50 and looking for a neutral, natural everyday makeup look.
By neutral, I mean that color tone does not matter, it’s a look that anyone can wear.
Simply follow along with this simple routine for a subtle and pretty look that you can create yourself.
The makeup I’m using is from the Look Fabulous Forever range, made specifically for mature skin. However, you can achieve the same results with any brand of makeup.
Best eyeshadow primer!
Tools and materials:
- Eyeshadow brush
- Blending brush
- Cream, rose gold and taupe eyeshadow
- Taupe eyeliner pencil
- Black mascara
1. Apply cream eyeshadow
After applying eye primer for a smooth start, paint the cream eyeshadow color over each eyelid.
You can be very generous with this, taking it into the inner corners toward the brow bone where you might have some blueness.
2. Apply rose gold eyeshadow
Next, for our first layer of color, take the rose gold eyeshadow on your brush and apply it just to the outer corners of your eyes, roughly the outer third.
3. Shape your eyelids with taupe
Next, take the taupe eyeshadow onto your brush and apply it into the eye socket.
Taupe is not a particularly strong color, so it’s easy to apply and still gives immediate shape and definition to your eyes.
Make sure you apply this above the eyelids and below the brow line.
Use a clean brush to blend the 3 eyeshadow shades seamlessly. Remember, we aren’t going for stripes but shadows of subtle hues.
4. Apply eyeliner
Apply a taupe shade of eyeliner to the base of your upper eyelashes.
Depending on the texture of your skin, you might find it helpful to gently stretch the eyelid out slightly while applying the eyeliner pencil.
Use the eyeliner at the outer thirds of your lower lash line as well.
5. Apply mascara
Finally, apply mascara to your lashes.
This over 50 eye makeup look is easy because you don’t need to be ultra-precise thanks to the neutral color palette.
Now my eyes look made-up but not overdone.
