There are those beauty products considered tried and true. What makes a product versatile enough to be considered good enough for all ages? For one, a product that can compliment any skin type at any age. Products that stick to the value of what an effective beauty product should do for a woman like compliment the natural beauty of a woman, and subtly lift the face for a more naturally enhanced look. Of course, altering your "must-haves" is a "must-do" with the myriad of life changes such as hormonal, stress and age.
What is ageless beauty, or rather timeless beauty? I would have to say that timeless beauty is the ability to embrace your personal beauty, no matter your age. When a woman is described as timelessly beautiful, it is implied that the true age of a woman is unapparent as her smile is gleaming and skin looks radiant and healthy. Beauty products that help to achieve this ageless beauty are staples and live in the makeup bags of women from their early 20’s onto their years to come.

3. Foundation and Primer - It would be lovely if we retained the perfect skin of our youth, but our skin changes at every age. And so too should the level coverage.

4. Mascara - Lashes can get thinner as we age, but mascara shouldn't be off the table. While you may not be able to achieve long and lush lashes at 50 plus, mascara still enhances your eyes and while make them pop.
5. Shear Eye Shadow - Natural eye shadow colors in a matte finish will always be an essential in every woman’s makeup collection. Shimmery shadows are fun, but as we age shimmer tends to accentuate fine lines.
