Just wondering if anyone had any ideas or helpful suggestions on doing makeup with people with wrinkles. Maybe some tips on doing makeup on people with freckles … thanks

Wayne Goss is a good place to start, he does a lot of older clients.

Stick with matte textured things. Shimmer will make wrinkles stand out, especially around the eyes. I normally prefer a mineral powder foundation and conceal over a liquid one. It blends a little better into the skin.

And as for people with freckles, I personally love using sheerer foundations, because I love freckles! But if they're looking to cover their freckles, I would just go over those areas again with a little more foundation or concealer.

Prep your canvas [their face] with Make Up For Ever's HD Elixer! That stuff works MIRACLES in hydrating the skin and plumping up the skin. I've used it on both older relatives of the bride and young bridesmaids lacking sleep, and I will always try to work with that to prep when working on others.  =D
