I'm a makeup artist. I've done bridal, broadcast, and the unforgiving close-ups of HD television, and I'll tell you something most of my colleagues won't say out loud: 9 out of 10 foundations I'm handed at the counter make women over 50 look older. I can spot it across a room — the line of demarcation at the jaw, the chalky cling under the eye, the orange shift by hour three.

She walked out of my chair looking ten years younger — the kind of younger her husband actually noticed.
