Mary Ann's Quick & Easy "Retirement” Makeup Routine
"Keep it simple. You don't want to overdo it with too much makeup or crazy, over-the-top hairstyles. Let your natural beauty show through." - Heidi Klum
Meet Mary Ann. At 62, she has joined the golden years of retirement.
After working in a professional office with full makeup, she was done with the hours lost to a mirror getting ready for work. But, like so many of us, she didn't want to just let herself go and walk around in her pj's all day.
When Vibriance released their Makeup Simplified line, her attention was officially caught. It sounded like what she wanted – reliable makeup with few steps.
Consider Mary Ann in love.
Check out her routine that took her from a complicated routine to ready in less than 10 minutes.

1. Safety First
Mary Ann starts with cleansed skin, topped with sunscreen. Whether indoors or out, we must safeguard ourselves against the sun's rays. As we age, our skin thins, and those beautiful beams can soak deeper into our skin.

To ensure she is protected, Mary Ann starts with Vibriance's Sheer Zinc Sunscreen.
With a small pump, she dabs the SPF 50 lotion on her skin and rubs it in. And like most of Vibriance's products, a little goes a long way.
Bonus: because the sunscreen is tinted, it doubles as her foundation and concealer all in one!
As if that weren't enough, Vibriance's sunscreen has Hyaluronic Acid, which moisturizes while protecting against harmful rays.

2. Get that Glow
After washing and protecting her skin, Mary Ann is ready for a bit of color to give her that sunkissed glow. She starts with Radiance, from the Makeup Simplified line, because it is the most "wonderful universal color" and is "super creamy."
Mary Ann begins by dotting the stick on her cheekbones. Next, she moves to her forehead, continuing to dab across her forehead. That's it. Using a makeup brush or her fingertips, she works the color in, blending the color up and toward the hairline.

When the seasons change to summer, she adds a tad more color to her face across the bridge of her nose to underneath her eyes to achieve that fresh-from-the-sun look.
But when she really wants to bring the color, Mary Ann lets Radiance double as an eyeshadow and lipstick! She applies it under her browbone, carefully avoiding the crease in her eyes. For lipstick, she uses her finger to spread the color onto her mouth, smoothing it across her lips.

3. Shine, Baby, Shine
After adding warmth, Mary Ann brings out her Illuminate stick to highlight specific areas. She starts by applying Illuminate above the Radiance on her cheekbones. Then, she adds it to her forehead below Radiance, continues down her nose, dots it on her cupid's bow, and places a spot on her chin.
Finally, she tops it off with a dab right in the center of her eyelid and blends all areas with her fingertips.
Illuminate can be used anywhere you want to highlight.

4. Plump It Up
To finalize her look, Mary Ann adds Vibriance's Lip Volumizer to her lips. She puts it right over the top of the Radiance, but even on days she goes sans-lip color, she still applies her volumizer. Mary Ann likes how the volumizer eases out the fine lines she acquired with age.
Vibriance's Lip Volumizer is made with safe, natural ingredients which won't dry out your lips with repeated use. Our lips are thinner than the other parts of the body, translating to more pronounced thinning and wrinkles as we age.

Find Your Routine
For Mary Ann, finding a routine that could take her from start to out the door in ten minutes was essential. She wanted the flexibility to quickly get to the grocery store or make a trip without much primping.
You may want more or less! Whatever your routine is, make it true to you. Want to take a little longer prepping your skin – go for it! Want to skip the volumizer and stick to just the Makeup Simplified? Great!
Despite your method – make sure it allows you to feel good in your own skin!
