This article was written for Annabel & Grace, which is now part of Rest Less.
As you know Grace and I are great fans of Look Fabulous Forever make-up and skincare specifically for older women. This video from LFF came at a perfect time ie when many of us are wanting a Spring refresh for our make-up. I love the way that Sally incorporates green eye make-up into her routine. This is a colour I have never used and as I have similar eye colour to Sally I thought it was worth trying and would certainly uplift my make-up from all the sludgy brown colours I wear during the winter.
I also really like the way that Sally explains the uses of each of the brushes. Finally, Sally is a woman near my age which is refreshing as I want to see what make-up looks like on a similar skin tone and texture to my own.
