Every woman wants to look elegant, modern and comfortable in society. And every woman tries to do it in her own way. Whether it’s a well-styled outfit, new shoes or a fragrant perfume – we, women, have our own approach to showing our beauty. But what is the lady without makeup? We can safely say that skin care and makeup are an integral part of women’s lives. From the age of 40, however, make-up does not become a simple vanity, but something necessary. Mature skin needs more care and make-up hides the visible imperfections. Are you already 50 years old and looking for a new lipstick? Then continue reading the following article, where we present the trendiest colors of lipstick over 50 for autumn 2023.

Which lipstick from 50 in autumn 2023?
It is more difficult for middle-aged women to find a suitable lipstick. Really? Completely vice versa. Here is the palette to choose from.
#Plum
We love plums not only as a fruit, but also for the warm purple color. Lipsticks in this shade will be super popular in the coming season. Whether matt, shiny or creamy – the texture will emphasize the beauty of your lips. What makes this lipstick color popular in the following months is that it suits almost every skin tone. The plum-colored lipstick is best suited for women with brown hair and/or a cooler skin tone!

#Terracotta lipstick
A rich, warm orange with a touch more pink than usual – that’s the color terracotta. It’s a fantastic shade for both fall and winter. That is why lipsticks in terracotta shades will also be popular in autumn 2023. For the ladies with a warmer or olive undertone, a terracotta lipstick works beautifully!
For the ladies with lighter skin tone and light brown or red hair, coral red lipstick is a popular choice

#coral
Coral lipstick is set to make the top list again this season. We actually see this pink-red nuance not only on the lips, but also on the cheeks and eyelids. Even if some women associate this color more with the hot summer days, the lipstick in soft or saturated coral red remains in fashion for the fall of 2023.

#Nude Rose
For the middle-aged ladies who aren’t too keen on experimenting with lipstick colors, Nude Rose is the perfect choice. This romantic shade is perfect for any style and make-up. What makes this shade even more popular is the fact that it’s suitable for every occasion. Whether it’s for everyday use or for a special dinner or party, this shade is a definite all-rounder.
Nude rose lipstick suits almost every skin tone. If you have fair skin, choose a more pink shade. A neutral color makes your skin appear even lighter and paler. However, a neutral nuance is perfect for women with medium to dark skin tones. If you have a cooler undertone, you can also wear nude rose tones, but where the mauve or rose nuances are “dominant”.

Which lipstick makes women over 50 look younger?
Proper care of the lips plays a key role, especially at the age of 40+. Over time, lips become dry and cracked. Here we share a few hints and tips on how to soften your lips.
#Prepare lips: Exfoliate
The first (perhaps the most important) step is exfoliation. In this way, all dead skin is removed and not only do you feel the otherwise rough lips softer, but the lipstick can be applied better later and lasts longer. Choose a gentle scrub with small particles and oils that will nourish the skin. Exfoliating products can be found at drugstores and pharmacies, or you can try making your own at home.
How you take care of your lips is even more important than the color of lipstick you choose

After exfoliating, apply some lip balm or butter to moisturize the lips. You can also choose a product with SPF. Several brands also offer lipsticks with an essential oil conditioning core.
#Lips contour
Many ladies think that the lip contour is rather unnecessary and wear the lipstick without it. Actually, that’s not entirely true. Just like face contouring, lip contouring is all about bringing out your best features. It’s all about enhancing the natural definition of your lips to enhance depth, dimension and volume.
Do not neglect the role of lipstick, especially in women with thinner lips

When choosing the liner, make sure that it is slightly darker than the lipstick. It shouldn’t be too dark either. This makes the lips look fuller, which is important for women with thinner lips. It is best to choose sets from a brand that combines a lipstick with a liner. Then you will be sure that both colors match each other.
Important: When choosing a lip liner, make sure that it is softer and easier to apply. In this way you not only create the contour faster and better, but also make the lips look evenly contoured.

#Lipstick over 50: Matt or Glossy?
For the ladies who prefer glossy lips, we recommend a clear lip gloss on the center of the lips as a finishing touch. This is how you create more volume. But this step is not mandatory if you prefer matte lips.
