Charla says to apply a thin line of black liquid eyeliner by Shiseido ($27) to define the eyes and take away emphasis from wrinkles.

Looking for a healthy pink glow? Don't use powder, Charla says—go for a creme blush. She likes NARS Creme Blush in the shade of Penny Lane ($23).

To cover up wrinkles and fine lines around the lips, Charla likes concealer made by Cle De Peau for $68. "If I were going to be on a deserted island and could only take one beauty item with me, it would be this concealer," she says.
Available at Neiman Marcus locations and other major department stores.

Makeup isn't just for your face—your legs can get in on the blemish-covering action, too. Charla recommends Body Bling™ by Scott Barnes for camouflaging varicose veins, bruises and other imperfections on the legs. "It gives you coverage without having to wear hose, and you get that gorgeous J. Lo glow," Charla says.
