I wasted $2,000 on makeup that made me look OLDER

I went through my entire makeup collection and threw out over $2,000 worth of products that were making me look older. I've been formulating makeup for almost 20 years. In this video I walk you through 8 products to ditch, and the alternatives that will actually make you look younger and fresher. I'm hoping to save you money and find ONLY the products that make you feel beautiful. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:16 – #1: Concealers (and what to use instead) 1:35 – #2: Powder Highlighters (the trick + the upgrade) 3:00 – #3: Contour products (why they make you look gaunt) 4:08 – #4: Liquid Eyeliners (the softer alternative) 5:28 – #5: Matte Eyeshadows (why satin formulas are better) 6:43 – #6: Strip Lashes (lash clusters are the upgrade) 7:44 – #7: Liquid Lipsticks (lip stains are the fix) 8:32 – #8: Matte Lipsticks (go satin or gloss) 🆘Here's my favorite products in each category that DOES work well for women over 40. I use these in constant rotation!
