Step One: Give Your Color a Gentle Boost

Kim hasn't relaxed her kinky hair in 18 months and wants no harsh chemicals added while she lets her hair grow out. The solution: Lukaro stylist LouAnne conditions her hair and scalp with an oil-based leave-in treatment (try Hamadi Beauty Shea Spray, $18) to boost moisture and shine, then adds fine highlights to soften gray hairs. (Try this at home with one of these top-rated at-home hair colors and this highlighting video.)

She looked great to begin with! How about someone who actually looks 50?

Sure she looks great. What 50 year old has skin like that?

She looks great but this didn't really tell me anything. I'd like specific makeup tips for women 40 and over.
