Growing up near the beaches of Zuma and Malibu, I've evolved from a sun-seeking teen to a mature beauty enthusiast who prioritizes skin health over sunbathing.

Designed for those of us who adore a radiant tan but want to avoid sun damage, this product promises a natural, medium golden glow infused with skin-loving ingredients. In this review, I'll dive deep into my personal experience with this mist, discussing everything from its skincare benefits to its application process.

Hello, lovely Mature Mavens! I want to share with you my thoughts on a product that's not a recent find, but a staple in my makeup routine for quite some time - Jouer Cosmetics Soft Focus Pressed Setting Powder. Despite being on the market for a few years and bagging prestigious awards like Allure's Best of Beauty in 2019 and the Beauty Innovation Awards' Powder Product of the Year, it remains my trusted solution for a flawless, shine-free T-zone.

Bisou Blush Review: The Perfect Matte-Cream Blush for a Natural Flush

You are going to think I work for or on the payroll for this brand. I wish, but alas, I’m not. Promise! But I received the Bisou Blush in the color Melanie from Violette_FR five days ago, and I’m on my fifth day of wearing it. ☺ Normally, I would wait awhile to use a product before writing about it, but that seems to have gone out the window today. Off the top, it’s clean and cruelty free, buildable just like the Bisou Balms and has ingredients such as Ginger root extract and synthetic beeswax.

Violette FR Boum Boum Milk - All Over Cream Spray

Ever had one thing lead to another, like a chain of happy accidents? Well, that's exactly what happened to me. I was on a YouTube hunt, tired of wasting cash on makeup and skincare that just didn't work for my mature skin. I stumbled upon Andreea Ali, a fantastic makeup artist. But not specifically for mature skin. She's super talented and demonstrates a wealth of knowledge that never ceases to amaze me! Through her YouTube videos, I discovered Bisou Balm by Violette_FR which have a blurring affect on mature lines in lips, and then Boum Boum Milk caught my eye. I loved it so much, I purchased a second bottle, which came with a Bisou Blush in a set. Just did a review on that the other day!

Westman Atelier Lip Suede Review: The Choice for Mature Lips

About the first week of March, I purchased a Westman Atelier Lip Suede Matte Lipstick in Minx-Blooming Peony, because it was just that hard for me to resist this color - and I already love their creamy Face Trace Contour Stick. The pigmentation of the Lip Suede is rich and gives a powerfully long-wearing color for the lips, ensuring the color stays put for an impressive duration. The attribute that really impressed me, however, was how it resisted feathering into my lip lines—hence another valued quality in our quest for refined, mature beauty. Even luxurious to hold: there is a weightiness in my hand speaking more about the quality than any other bullet lipstick might.
