I'm in my 60's so less is more. I wear foundation and a modest amout of eyeshadow and liner. I find the older I get the less I like mascara. I actually take a tissue and wipe the excess gunk off the brush before applying mascara to my lashes. I don't like the tarantula look. I don't use as much blush as I once did. Too harsh at my age. If I'm not going to be out running around, I wear no makeup at all even though it is pretty scary. (Ha ha)

It depends. Most days it's little to none. Today I added a drop of foundation and lumizer to my sunscreen For years I wore none at all, but I'm getting more redness as I get older.
The things is, I also know that women who do wear makeup earn more money and get promoted more often. The world loves to tell us that we don't need makeup, but they prefer us with it on.
Amy Schumer captured it perfectly in this video where a boy band sings about how "Girl, You Don't Need Makeup," until she takes her makeup off, and then the guys are horrified to see a woman without makeup and sing "Girl, you do need makeup - lots and lots of makeup."

Thank-you for your responses. I find the older I get, the less makeup I use. I do think makeup is fun to play with. I used to be a makeup junky.....but always liked a natural look. Today I focus now more on just healthy skin.
Exactly.
The very basics that make everyone look more youthful are healthy hair, healthy skin, healthy teeth, healthy nails, and a healthy bod (no matter the size).
