Vote with your wallet Counter staff work on commission. If you're getting rude or sloppy service from one sales assistant, politely move on to another and don't feel afraid to explain why. Helpful staff are more deserving of your money. Take a chunky eye crayon and line the upper and lower lashline. The fatness of the crayon will keep a shaky train or bus from making this wonky. Smudge lightly with your little finger to soften. (Two minutes)

Top 5 Eyelash Curlers

The Eye Opening Mascara is designed to give you voluminous, lengthened lashes with its unique brush that coats every lash from root to tip. The formula is infused with a blend of natural waxes and polymers that help to separate lashes while adding volume and definition. The result is a dramatic, eye-catching look that lasts all day. When it comes to the head of the mascara with the brush, every so often I would give that a full sweep clean with a dry piece of kitchen roll," Gallagher continues.

Eye cream My relationship with eye cream is not clear-cut, so let me explain. You need a form of moisturiser around the eye area, and eye cream is marvellous at doing this without irritation. When all is said and done, however, it is still an anti-ageing moisturiser sold in a tiny pot and not the magic product the beauty industry implies it to be. So if you suffer no adverse reactions from your regular anti-ageing day cream, and no puffiness occurs, you are perfectly fine to use it. Some products are a nonsense or an unnecessary extravagance. Anti-cellulite creams, gels, serums – these are the snake oils of the beauty industry and best left alone. Here are some prime offenders. Don't buy just one brand I hate it when sales assistants say you must buy a whole skincare range for it to work properly. This is usually balls and, if it isn't, I have grave reservations about any product that can't stand on its own two feet. If you love one brand, go for it, but it's a question of playing to the strength of different companies – I'd buy primer from Laura Mercier, but foundation from Armani, say. If someone insists you need their moisturiser for their serum to work, walk away and get a better one. As women age, their lashes may become thinner or sparse. Therefore, they need a mascara that can provide volume and length without causing clumps or irritation. Here are some of the best mascaras for women over 60 with thinning or sparse lashes: There are really no rules in makeup, of course, but applying mascara on bottom lashes not only makes your overall look feel complete, it also has a nice effect on the eyes. "Using mascara on the bottom lashes creates a more rounded, doe-eyed shape that gives the illusion of bigger eyes," Oliver confirms. To avoid clumping, use what's left on the brush after applying mascara to your top lashes; this will mean you're working with a bit less product. 7.

Photograph: Alamy Three years on, I am pretty blasé about having my photograph taken, and believe me when I say that it's entirely learned behaviour. There's good reason to overcome your fear of looking terrible on camera: if you refuse to be in photographs, you're denying others (and yourself) many happy memories. I am not suggesting you should strike a supermodel pose whenever a camera appears. We should accept that we sometimes look crap in photos and don't much care – their function is to be a record of a lovely time, not to make us feel like Gisele. But there are some images that it is good to get right, not least because we have to see them frequently: office passes and railcards, wedding albums, passports. A daily glance at an unflattering photo is a downer. Dab your ring finger in a creme eyeshadow. (Brown, ivory or taupe are easy to apply.) Pat your finger on to each eyelid, covering the lower half and stopping just past the eye crease. Move to your cheeks while this sets. (Two minutes) NB: This look doesn't work especially well on very wrinkled eyelids or on hooded ones. Don't sweat it. There are heaps of other makeup looks you can try.)

When searching for the best mascara, there are a few key points to consider. Firstly, you want a mascara that is gentle on your lashes, as you don't want to cause any unnecessary damage or breakage. Secondly, you want a mascara that adds volume and length to your lashes, helping to open up your eyes and make you look more awake. Thirdly, a waterproof mascara is always a good option, as it will help prevent smudging or running throughout the day. Fourthly, it's important to consider the brush type, as different brushes will offer different benefits. Finally, you want to look for a mascara that is easy to remove, as you don't want to be tugging at your delicate eye area.As we age, our skin and hair undergo various changes, and this includes our eyelashes. Many women over 60 may find that their lashes have become thinner and more fragile over time. This is why finding the best mascara for over 60 can be a game-changer. Be smart about makeovers Do not book an on-counter makeover before an important event, unless you've been before and were happy with the result. I've seen some makeovers that were so ham-fisted and clueless, they caused me actual bodily pain. Some brands are better than others. Bobbi Brown, Mac, Charlotte Tilbury, Laura Mercier, Illamasqua and Armani staff are generally more reliable and skilful than others, but there are many exceptions; the rule is not to bank on anything – unless you have time to fix it afterwards.
