My mom is 43, fair complected, has wrinkles, & wears out of style clothes! She's wore the same eyeshadow (purple) forever! I think that it is ugly! Also my mom has had the same hairstyle for at least 20 years (permed & really short) (like 60-80 year olds have)!!! I need help! Also she's fair complected & she needs help covering up her blotchy skin! Oh, yeah my mom has a high waste line & she looks bad in the jeans that she wears! Should she change her make-up & hair?
Confused Should she change her clothes? DOES ANYBODY have ANY Thoughts?

I'm one of the lucky people and I have a younger Mom so she has good style but don't worry your not the only one with an un-stylish mother. Here's what I'd do. I wouldn't go up and confront her about her un stylish ways, I would just give her advice. Maybe if you bought a straightner and you asked if she wanted to try it out. Almost everybody looks great with straight hair! Also if you went shopping with her and you saw something that you liked for her you could say that you think that it would suit her and that she should try it on. Just make sure not to overdo. You don't want to hurt her feelings so then she'll look good!

Ask your mom to go shopping with you. (Just say you want some things at the mall.) When you get there go to a CVS or a another store with makeup. Buy matching NATURAL eye shadow or talk her into buying one for herself. Don't forget about foundation. That should take care or any blemishes. When you go clothes shopping tell her that she should get a new pair of jeans. (If she askes why just say that you think that she should treat herself.) Make sure that she tryes on a different style of jean the what she normal buys. Make sure that you tell her if you approve or not of the different jeans, but be honest, but not cruel. For her hair buy her a hair color and suggest that she doesn't get her hair purmed anymore.
(Don't do everything in 1 day or else she might catch on.)
Hope that that helped Smile
