Many women look beautiful even when they cross fifty, sixty or even seventy. These women know how to combat the ravages of time.

As you grow older never allow your skin to feel or get dry. Never use soap at this age. You should instead clean your face with a good cleansing milk. Never wash your face more than it is necessary and never wash your face with very hot or very cold water. Always wash it with tap water. In the night massage cold cream into the skin, in the morning before taking your bath, massage Vaseline in the skin. In the day use a moisturizer to prevent any natural moisturizer from being lost to the atmosphere.

Extremely dry or cold weather dries up the skin so take utmost care of the skin during this weather. Mix together yolk of an egg, a teaspoon of cream found on top of boiled milk and a few drops of almond oil. Apply on the face and neck for 20 minutes face. Wash off. Do this at least 2-3 times every week. This will keep your skin supple and smooth. Before going in for your bath take equal quantities of olive, castor, almond and baby oil. Mix and bottle. Massage the body with this oil to keep it soft, smooth and shining.

You have to keep in mind that there are keys while doing makeup:

• Before you start your makeup application, laid out necessary things needed.
• The five minute makeup does not apply to every occasion. Thus, it is important to know the kind of activity you have on that day.

While applying blush, you desire the color to appear soft and natural, as if it comes from within. Read below for tips on how to put on make-up. 
1. Tap or lightly blow on the applicator brush to take away any leftover blush before applying to avoid a callous and uneven application. 
2. Put in your blush on the apple of the cheek and vigilantly combine towards your normal hairline.  
3. If you comprise two shades, apply the darker one on the apple of the cheek first, and then use the lighter shade to emphasize. Blend well so there is no noticeable line between colors. 
4. Focus your temples, forehead and chin.

To identify “where to glow” bow over for 30 seconds, then leisurely stand up. Where your cheeks have turned ‘rosey’ out is where you should target your blush. Apply your blush there and it will be physically rosy every time. Cheek color should be used to develop your skin and not to change it. Use carefully for daytime, then add more or a deeper shade for a more vivid nighttime effect. For special occasions, apply a lightly frosted powder over your cheekbones for a devious but alluring glow. Make sure to blend your blush into your foundation well or it will lean to look unnatural and add the façade of 5 years to your looks.
