@Icegoddess  Liner done all wrong under the eye can make you look tired and harsh. Don’t even mention the smearing factor if using eye cream and concealer. If I do use a pencil liner underneath (brides, photo shoots that need eyes really divined), I go over the line w/ a very fine brush dipped into the same shade of shadow to “set” the pencil.

You must really have some super secrets if you can divined eyes!

Might want to hold on to those!

Dont’cha love auto-correct?

@SeaMaiden I know you'll have a lot of people here disagree with you, me being one of them. If done tastefully, eye makeup can look beautiful on a more mature woman.

It really depends upon the individual. Generalizations generally don't work. I'm a person who looks rather dead without some eye makeup (at least concealer above and below, liner, and mascara -- I could probably get away with no shadow but I like it).

I'm not saying that I won't show my face with makeup, but it does make me look alive, which I consider a good thing.

I'm one of those 60's+ ladies who enjoys wearing eye makup.  Not every day for sure.  But, for church or special occasion I think it's a must for me.  Most days I wear no makeup at all, and I'm equally as comfortable going out in public like that although I know I look better with a little makeup on.  So, on days when I'm meeting up with friends or for appointments and such I'll wear just a BB cream or tinted moisturizer to even out my skin tone, eyebrows, and a little blush.  

I don't believe in limits just because of an age.

@Drythe  Actually auto-correct is sometimes helpful since I’m not a great speller, but geeeeez...I try to proofread my posts and missed this. Thanks.

@Texasmouse  I agree w/ @SeaMaiden. Definition of the eyes is one of the first things to go. Eye makeup, lightly applied, gives that back.

@Shanus agreeing with SeaMaiden would mean that you think "eye makeup on 60 plus woman loos SO BAD".  Your last statement doesn't seem to support her view.

@Texasmouse  Apologies. You’re correct, I was looking at another post, not SeaMaiden’s.

I line my upper just above my lashes and under my lower lashes with a thin line, after applying my shadow.      I like the look and I personally don't think it makes me look older.  No smudges or streaks.  Then I add my mascara.
