A make-up professional's advice is to hang back, relearn the arts. A "disappearing face" needs more subtle shading and highlighting to re-draw its bone structure and strengthen its features. "Too much and you look like a clown. Not enough and you just look blugh and the wrong products and colours will just sit on your skin like house paint."
Get the face-making right however and there are few spectacles more intriguing than an old woman, well turned out, with a pretty face, lightly drawn.
