25 Best Lipstick Colors for Women Over 60
Discover your new color today!
Our lipstick choices change as we age. Gone are the days of just grabbing a bold red and calling it done.
Our skin changes, our lips thin, and hydration becomes essential. But that doesn’t mean we stop having fun with color, it just means we get smarter about it.
Hydration is everything.
Dry, matte lipsticks can settle into fine lines.
If you love matte, look for hydrating formulas with shea butter or hyaluronic acid. Otherwise, go for creamy or glossy finishes that add volume and moisture.
Prep is power.
Use a sugar lip scrub weekly (like Dermasuri’s Lip Exfoliator) to remove dead skin and smooth lips. Follow with a lip primer for longer wear and less feathering.
Know your undertone.
Cool undertones: Think raspberry, blue-red, and berry.
Warm undertones: Coral, terracotta, and warm reds shine.
Neutral undertones: Lucky you—peachy nudes, mauves, and soft pinks all work beautifully.
