A PHOTO OF an elderly couple shopping for make-up in the supermarket is warming the hearts of everyone Facebook.

The photo was shared on Love What Matters and shows a man helping his wife select a foundation.

This husband was helping his wife choose a make-up that matched her skin tone. She was so concerned about finding the right one and he was so unbelievably helpful. She was having a “girl” moment, in a panic struggling to find the right one.

He calmed her down, helped her find her color and kissed her on the forehead. It was such a simple way to show how big his love was for her. A perfect reminder that our bodies grow old but our love doesn’t have to.
