New York (AP) – Pamela Anderson There’s nothing against makeup. It was just that she was there and did it in her youth. So now, at age 58, she attends fashion shows and film premieres, with a blissful naked face.
It especially looks at older women, which helps to plague and perplexity. Do we chase young people (and relevance) With full face, or we grow radioactive skin and march on makeup for free?
“I’m not trying to do that The most beautiful girl in the room.” Anderson told Vogue ahead of her recent show she attended during Paris Fashion Week. “I feel it’s just freedom. It’s like a relief.”
In the world not here, is it just as easy and comfortable compensate free? Some of the advocates of appearance weigh in along with style and beauty experts.
I’ll do my makeup for free at work
Women, especially older women, do not universally give up on makeup, but Anderson, Alicia Keys And other celebrities who publicly showed off their naked faces certainly inspired some to drive away it.
But working women acknowledge that it is difficult to do that at work, especially in traditional, uncreasing workspaces.
“I still think there’s politics related to it. It centers around emotion and a sophisticated look,” said Deborah Borg, HR director at a creative company with around 25,000 employees.
She said she saw more women getting into work makeup since Covid and believes the pandemic has significantly changed workplace dynamics.
Borg, 49, gave up on makeup four years ago and occasionally swiped her bold, signature red lipstick. Dalya, a cozy clothing store in New York’s trendy SoHo neighborhood, lends herself as a model to show how to help her naked skin shine and how to use outfits and accessories to accentuate her appearance.
Preparing skins for a no-makeup lifestyle
Makeup artist Rebecca Robless has made her think about hydration when Borg and others counseling on mature skin and choosing products to make the most of their naked face.
Robles recommends a 5-step work day routine. A gentle cleanser that does not peel off the skin. Vitamin C serum to brightly relieve thin lines. Sunscreen moisturizer. Another broad spectrum sunscreen for extra boost (don’t forget to apply it to your ears). And a shiny lip balm for a bit of Polish.
Do you have mascara? no problem. Use lash curlers to provide a little pop in your eyes, Robless said. Then gently brush your eyebrows to complete the look.
Find products containing hyaluronic acid and ceramide, Robles suggests and always swipe Skincare products. Minimizes skin pulling and pulling.
“One of the things that are really fun to keep in mind when your skin is shining is that light reflects moisture in your skin and helps to enlarge thin lines and pores.
She advised that each product should sit for 1-2 minutes before the next step was applied.
Borg has given his makeup free and then emphasized the ease of his morning routine. She had just spent about 30 minutes on makeup. Now she’s going to have her hair and face half of that time.
Sing the colour of clothes
Natalie Tincher, a personal stylist and founder of BU Style, praised Anderson, Keys and other celebrities, and even though she was published, she didn’t put on makeup on both social media.
“They look beautiful, they are very confident in their natural persona and we all say, ‘Hey, what am I hiding? I don’t need to do that. If I don’t want to wear makeup, I can make the choice.
She uses three approaches to make her clients make her makeup free.
First, dressed up and said, “Use a lot of colours. I call it our filter,” Tincher said.
Secondly, play with textures. Determine how the light is reflected. “So, if you have more matte, it will create softer lighting for you. If you have more silk satin, what would say something like a blouse would be like a laser beam,” she said.
Finally, it will be made into an accessory. Tincher said touches such as lapel pins, earrings and necklaces can be provided with the finished polish. The style considered can offset the judgement about making makeup free, she said.
“Think of your clothes as the big picture. What statement is it making when you’re in? It’s not just a part of you, but your presence in the room,” she said.
Others who abandoned their makeup and why
Colleen Gehosky Steinman, who lives near Lansing, Michigan, has recently been pivoted from a career in public relations and fundraising to professional sewing. During the pandemic, she stopped coloring her hair and then gave up on wearing makeup for a lot of time.
But if she’s in the lights that wash her away at the age of 59, she’s not a sticky guy about it.
“This is the person we are truly and can be as beautiful as you are,” Steinman said.
In South Carolina, Kate Chapman manages a bagel shop and sells homemade custard at the Farmers Market in the Greenville area. As a teenager, she was all in her makeup, but has been happy to be freed from the early 1990s.
“For one thing, I thought makeup was expensive,” Chapman said. “It takes time to wear it. As a woman, I do less. My male counterpart doesn’t have to pay this fee. It’s not fair. It’s not expected.
Make-up said, “It felt like a prison.” She gradually stopped and gave up the basics first. Still, she doesn’t apply a bit of mascara on special occasions.
“If you enjoy it, do it,” Chapman said. “But if you feel like a slave to it, let it go.”
