Gray Hair with a Bold Lip Makeup Look

Since I often share recommendations and tutorials, naturally my posts may contain affiliate links to the products I use and love. If you take action (make a purchase, for example) after clicking one of these links, I will earn a little coffee money, which I promise to drink while creating more helpful content for you.

Today’s focus: Gray hair with a Bold Lip.

This look took highlighting gray hair with a bold lip took about five minutes total but has impact, for sure. I love a red or berry lip with silver hair.

We lose contrast between our skin and hair as we age, and a bold lip can be just the thing you need. I now wear colors I wouldn’t have dreamed of wearing back when I was a brunette. It is just one of the benefits that have come from ditching the dye and it is so much fun.

All Products used today for this simple over-40 makeup look with a bold lip are non-toxic, and cruelty-free.

I used 7 products for this look. 

For today’s simple look I used:

  • Skin Twin Featherlight Foundation in light 230
  • Skin Twin Creamy Concealer in light 1
  • I use the Better Beauty Blender to apply my foundation and concealer. I use it damp for perfect. flawless coverage.
  • Cream Blush in Hibiscus for cheeks (applied with fingertips).
  • Thrive Mascara
  • Eyebrow pencil in light 
  • Cream Eyeshadow from Ilia. They have amazing cream shadows and Beautycounter has some coming soon!
  • Lip Intense in Twilight. I usually wear lipgloss or a lip sheer, but sometimes I like a more saturated color. Lip Intense is the first long-wearing, one-swipe lipstick by Beautycounter.

Lip Intense description from the website: Eight shades ranging from naturally nude to intense red deliver the rich color payoff and luxe satin finish you want, with the safety you deserve. Creamy formula moisturizes so lips feel soft and smooth, never dry and uncomfortable. Natural peppermint oil delivers a subtly refreshing flavor.

Want to make some makeup changes but feel overwhelmed? 

I know color selection can be challenging, so thankfully there are resources on the website to help, like the shade finder resource, and the Flawless in Five set, which is how I got started, walks you through foundation, concealer, blush, and gloss suggestions.  You can see my Flawless in Five picks here.

I’m meal prepping for the week(anti-inflammatory I’m meal prepping for the week(anti-inflammatory of course) which includes baking a bunch of chicken breasts, steaming several heads of broccoli, and making a pot of brown rice.

Every two weeks I’ll make clean muffins or bread for breakfast to shake things up a bit. I usually have a protein shake or a few scrambled egg whites and a banana or a piece of Ezekiel 7 sprouted grain bread (gluten free) as toast for breakfast, but sometimes I crave a baked good. 

When I have a muffin (or two) or slice of bread, I add a couple of scrambled egg whites on the side to make sure I have enough protein. 

➡️I’ll link to the recipes for these banana chocolate ship muffins and banana apple bread in my stories. 

Do you meal prep on Sundays as well?

🥳🚌🧑‍🎓💪🏻New year, new semester, 🥳🚌🧑‍🎓💪🏻New year, new semester, many new students, and feeling really well today.
My rosacea is even behaving. 🤣

I did go back to an anti-inflammatory diet after indulging in all the things over the holidays, so it makes sense that I am feeling better. Feeling optimistic anyway. 

🎉I don’t want to jinx it, but what a great way to ring in 2022!

❤️19 years ago today, surrounded by family and ❤️19 years ago today, surrounded by family and friends in Cooperstown, NY (and a record snowfall outside), I married my best friend and soulmate. 

I love reflecting on that day and the many beautiful memories we’ve made since then.

Our photographer was the photographer from the National Baseball of Fame and he used several antique cameras to capture our special day.

I wish you all a beautiful day filled with love and time for relaxation. 🥰

Scroll through to see some of my favorite decor over here, like our trees selected specifically to highlight our collection of @crosbyandtaylor ornaments, our Christmas card board for all of our cards over the years on top and those we’ve received from others this year below, and a little something worth celebrating: our first homemade cannoli. Thank you, @preppykitchen for the guidance. We had fun with it. 

It has been a very hard week, which I will share more about later, but we tried to keep things as normal as possible for our kiddo. 

🕊Peace be you.
