No More “Granny” Lipstick! 5 Changes for a Fresher Look After 60

Does your usual lipstick make your lips seem to disappear? In this video, Helen Parker explores five simple changes to try after 60: a cool red, an everyday berry pink, a comfortable satin finish, a pink coral for warmer coloring, and a richer berry or wine shade. You’ll see how to compare colors in daylight, use a lighter application when a shade feels too bold, and tell whether the color or the finish is causing the problem. You don’t need five new lipsticks—start by comparing one you already own with an alternative you’d enjoy wearing. Which shade is your favorite?
