Graceful Disgraceful Beauty

Sunkissed

Fun non-stereotypical beauty images and chat with women 50 and beyond. Highlighting a shout out to ourselves and wider community

Hey see me I’m great

As we approach autumn and holding back those chilly winter months I wanted to achieve a make up look that can ease you out of summer and into autumn still feeling sunkissed warm and sunny.

This week my model is Wendy 52 she is a dance and yoga teacher. I always want my make up themes appropriate to the person in my chair and I see Wendy as a Boho chic and I love the images we created. It was fun using individual lashes to give an extra definition to her eyes without the need for a heavy eyeline.The flower headdress and plaits gives the boho feel, looks fabulous whatever your age.

She said ‘Today has given me a much needed lift, a reminder that I need to spend sometime on myself and the motivation to think about updating my look as I settle into this next decade!!’
