Top 3 Makeup Tips for Women in Their 30s

As we move into our 30s, our skincare and makeup needs evolve. The focus shifts to enhancing our natural beauty, addressing any new skin concerns, and investing in products that offer quality and longevity. Here are my top three makeup tips to help you look and feel your best in this exciting decade.

1. Invest in High-Quality Makeup Brushes

One of the best investments you can make in your 30s is high-quality makeup brushes. They can transform your makeup application, making it easier and more flawless. Personally, I love using Seint's brushes. They are specifically designed for Seint's crème makeup, ensuring smooth and even coverage.

Here's a quick guide to help you choose the right brush for your desired coverage:

  • Detail Brush: Perfect for medium coverage, this brush is my personal favorite. It offers precision and blends makeup beautifully.

  • Blend Brush: Ideal for light coverage, this brush is great for those days when you want a more natural, barely-there look.

  • Buff Brush: If you prefer full coverage, the Buff Brush is your go-to. It gives a flawless finish that lasts all day.

Remember, the right brush can make a significant difference in your makeup routine, so choose one that aligns with your coverage needs.

2. Brighten Up Under Your Eyes

As we age, the delicate skin under our eyes can start to show fine lines and wrinkles. A simple yet effective adjustment is to change the way you apply your under-eye brightener. Instead of using the large "brightening triangle" technique, focus on brightening the inner and outer corners of your eyes. This method helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and brings attention to your beautiful eyes without emphasizing any creases.

Here's how to do it:

  • Apply a small amount of brightener to the inner corner of your eyes, blending it gently.

  • Add a touch to the outer corners, blending upwards to lift the area.

  • Avoid applying too much product directly under the eyes, as it can settle into fine lines.

This subtle shift in your makeup routine can make a significant difference, giving you a fresher and more youthful appearance.

3. Invest in Good Quality Skincare

While drugstore brands may have served us well in our 20s, our 30s call for a higher level of skincare. Investing in good quality skincare products can help slow down the aging process and keep your skin looking radiant. I started using Seint's 3-step skincare system four years ago, and my skin has never been happier. The simplicity of the system, combined with its effective results, makes it a great choice.

The Seint 3-step skincare system includes:

  • Cleanser: Gently removes makeup and impurities without stripping the skin.

  • Toner: Balances the skin's pH and preps it for better absorption of the following products.

  • Moisturizer: Hydrates and nourishes the skin, keeping it soft and supple.

Good skincare is the foundation of any makeup routine. By investing in high-quality products, you ensure your skin remains healthy and glowing, providing the perfect canvas for your makeup.

In your 30s, it's all about refining your makeup routine and investing in products that enhance your natural beauty. High-quality brushes, thoughtful under-eye brightening techniques, and effective skincare are key elements in achieving a flawless look. Embrace these tips and enjoy the confidence that comes with looking and feeling your best.
