I'm turning 45 shortly and trying to keep a youthful look as much as I can (I have not come to terms with middle age yet 😭) Does this makeup suit me? I think it does but I want to screen for makeup blindness. Please be blunt.

Also, I'm going to a black tie event next week; what type of look would work for me that's appropriate but not overboard or would age me? I've never done black tie before and for immediate family weddings I've paid a makeup artist in the past but I don't have the luxury of doing that this time. Thanks for any advice!
