Makeup Artists Share Tips on How to Wear Lip Liner for Women Over 50

While the twentysomethings are out here connecting their cupid’s bow with stone- and taupe-toned liners and pinky stains, more mature women are careening from the lip category, finding that the formulas that once were faux filler sidekicks no longer sit still or smudge-free.

The truth is, lips undergo their own aging process, impacting the shape, definition and texture, making it difficult to know which products to purchase and how to wear them. Do you dare to overdraw? Or is it better to color inside the lines?

According to beauty founder and makeup tool innovator Jenny Patinkin, there are certain trends women over 50 should shy away from, one being the cool contour technique.

“I know the trend is to wear a cool-toned brown lip liner to overline and contour, but the lack of color and blue undertones can make aging lips look corpse-like and skin look pallid,” she told WWD. “I tend to prefer a neutral pink-toned liner that is a shade or so deeper than your natural lip color, so it looks fresh and natural no matter what product you’re pairing it with.” The Makeup by Mario Ultra Suede Sculpting Lip Pencil in Hugh holds the number slot in her kit.

When it comes to the “blurred lip” trend, a look that’s meant to move and melt, Patinkin said the only way to pull this off is to pick the perfect liner shade. “We lose definition at the edges of our lips over time anyway, and I, for one, certainly do not want to accentuate it by blurring any further.
