4 Tips To Simplify Your Makeup and Look Amazing as You Age.

“Less makeup is always more.” —Cindy Joseph, founder of BOOM!

Cindy Joseph used to say this all the time.

As a professional makeup artist for nearly three decades, Cindy recognized that a full face of makeup doesn’t look the best as we age.

Foundations and powders that worked beautifully in our 20s and 30s just don’t look the same on our skin now.

That’s why Cindy encouraged us slightly more experienced women to skip the full face of makeup and simplify our routines instead.

It’s also why Cindy designed the simple, streamlined Boomstick Trio^® over a decade ago. She created these three makeup sticks to replace everything in your makeup bag.

To this day, you can still use these three sticks (or “Boomsticks” as Cindy called them) in the Boomstick Trio to simplify your makeup. Here’s how…

Tip #1: Prep your skin with all-natural moisture.

It’s no accident that the first Boomstick is a moisturizer.

Cindy always encouraged women to moisturize as often as possible.

Moisturizing helps our skin look and feel healthy. (That makes it easier to skip the foundation.)

Boomstick Glo^® makes moisturizing simple. Made with natural moisturizers like honey and olive oil, Boomstick Glo allows you to quickly soften and hydrate any area of your skin.

Simply dab this Boomstick directly onto your face and neck to prep your skin for your makeup with soothing moisture.

Then carry this Boomstick with you to moisturize throughout the day.

Tip #2: Trade powders for cream-based makeup.

As we age, powders tend to settle into our fine lines and draw attention to wrinkles.

That goes for powder blushes, bronzers and eyeshadows.

That’s why all our Boomsticks have a creamy, luxurious texture. Cindy designed them to sit on top of our skin—so they do NOT highlight fine lines.

Also, Boomstick Color^® and Boomstick Glimmer^® are universal colors that match all skin tones. To simplify, try replacing your powder makeup with these Boomsticks.

Tip #3: Multitasking makeup saves you more than just time.

If you’re interested in simplifying your routine, we suggest multitasking makeup that does more than one thing for you.

Choosing just a few multitaskers saves you time, money and energy from having to switch between products. It also helps protect your skin from the possible irritation of using too many different products at once.

With the Boomstick Trio, you’re getting three multitaskers—that each fulfills more than one role in your overall simplified routine.

Boomstick Glo is a full-body moisturizer. You can use it to soften and hydrate any area of your skin in seconds. (That includes dry spots on your face, hands, cuticles, elbows etc.)

Boomstick Color is four different cosmetics in one. You can apply it in less than a minute as a creamy blush, lipstick, bronzer and contour. With its universal color that matches every skin tone, you can wear Boomstick Color year-round in any season. That’s another way to simplify your makeup.

Boomstick Glimmer is both a creamy eyeshadow and a highlighter. You can also wear this universally flattering shade with any outfit, season or occasion.

Together, three multitasking Boomsticks give you a full-body moisturizer, blush, lipstick, bronzer, contour, eyeshadow and highlighter.

That means you can replace up to seven different products in your makeup bag with three Boomsticks. Talk about simplifying.

Tip #4: Stick to a 5-minute routine.

Part of simplifying your makeup is spending less time in front of the mirror.

With Boomsticks, you can easily create a natural look in five minutes flat—without any makeup tools or brushes. Here’s how…

Minute 1: No need to get moisturizer on your fingers. Simply dab Boomstick Glo directly onto your face and neck to soften and hydrate your skin.

Minutes 2-3: Give yourself a sun-kissed look by dabbing Boomstick Color where you might naturally blush. That includes the apples of your cheeks, temples, lips, sides of your neck and décolletage. Blend it with your fingers until you see the color you love.

Minute 4: Apply Boomstick Glimmer as a creamy eyeshadow. Then use this Boomstick to subtly accentuate your lips, cheekbones, neck or décolletage as you like.

Minute 5: Love the look? You’re ready to walk out the door! Not enough color yet? Add more of the buildable Boomstick Color and Boomstick Glimmer to your features for a slightly bolder—but still natural—look.
