You might think of the plethora of viral TikTok beauty trends as being something more geared towards the millennial generation than your own.
We get it: graphic pop eyeliner, Barbie hair, and big-glam eye gems might not exactly strike your personal fancy, but there are actually a multitude of beauty trends on the app that can be adapted to the makeup look for women over age 50.
Here’s a quick roundup of viral TikTok makeup trends that can be adapted not only to your trips around the sun, but also your own unique sense of style.

Here’s a quick roundup of viral TikTok makeup trends that can be adapted not only to your trips around the sun, but also your own unique sense of style.
If you’re over 50, you’ll remember the nineties’ alternative grunge aesthetic (we will always love you, Courtney Love) that was a reaction to the mainstream minimalist beauty looks of the time (think bare-faced Calvin Klein and Gap ads).
Similarly, today’s women of all ages are ditching the minimalist in favor of something a little more statement-making.
Get the updated grunge look by starting out with a clean and moisturized face (don’t forget the toner!).
We also recommend a bit of primer as well as a perfect canvas for this look. Apply a lightweight foundation (or a tinted moisturizer will do the trick) to even out your skin tone. Next, use either a neutral or cool-toned eyeshadow palette to create the look’s all-important smokey eye (our makeup tutorial for women over 50 will help you nail this look).
But if, on the other hand, you’re looking for more of a natural look, go for shades of gray (no Fifty Shades about it), brown or black. You can also add a pop of color like purple to make for a bolder, more edgy statement.
Grunge wouldn’t be grunge without the all-important dark eyeliner on both the upper and lower lash lines for a bit of a dramatic effect.
Top off the eyes with our hydrating serum base PrimeLash Mascara to add a dose of definition to your lashes. Keep the flush natural with a blush in the universally flattering shade of happiness. Since we’ve played up the eyes, keep your lips natural by using a nude or give a hint of color with this berry-toned lipstick or lip gloss.
Word to the wise: don’t let this stunning look melt off in the mosh pit.

This TikTok trend can be a favorite for women over 50 for its illusion of glossy, sultry and oh-so-full looking lips.
Start off by cleaning and moisturizing the lips (even exfoliate as an in-between step if you have the time). Our lip primer will help the lip product stay in place.
Line the lips with a color that best matches your own natural lip color in a neutral or pink shade. A clear liner can also work if you’re in a pinch.
Next, apply a smooth, moisturizing lip gloss or gloss-finish lipstick in a similar neutral or pink shade. The idea for the illusion is to use a product that is shiny and reflective so as to create that lovely "glazed" and dazed look. If you want to plump up the volume (nineties’ girls will get the reference), apply a small amount of highlighter to the center of the lips for that wet oomph.

Get concert-ready with this packed blush look by starting off with a clean and moisturized face.
A lightweight foundation or tinted moisturizer will even put the skin tone (you can also a primer here too if you like). Next, use a creamy, buildable blush in a shade that complements your skin tone for cheekbones that will pop.
Buildable is important.

Apply the blush heavily to the apples of your cheeks and blend upwards and outwards towards your temples. If you are using a product like PrimeWand Pigment that was formulated to meld using your fingertips and blend seamlessly into your skin, then you’ll find this look a lot easier to achieve.
Use another clean brush to soften up any harsh lines or edges to the blush. If you want to amplify the intensity, feel free to add a smidge of blush to your forehead and jawline too.
