6 makeup mistakes that age your face and how to fix them

Use dark colors during makeup.
Choosing a dark color for your eyebrows will give your makeup an unnatural effect and make you look older. Choose an eyebrow pencil that is one shade lighter than your natural color. Also avoid dark colors on your lips. In fact, with age they tend to lose volume. So if your lipstick is too dark, your lips will appear thin. Opt for a pink color to highlight your lips and give them a plump appearance. To amplify this effect, you can add a layer of glitter.

Using powder during makeup
Powder covers oily and shiny areas of the face, but also eliminates shine. In addition, it accumulates in wrinkles and makes them more pronounced. Then avoid using it, but if you can’t do without it, gently apply it to the T zone of the face, that is, the nose and chin.

With age, eyes narrow and eyelids become droopy. To apply eye makeup correctly and avoid looking older, it is important to apply good eye makeup.

Concealer is essential for a youthful, fresh look, but choosing the wrong shade can have the opposite effect. In fact, the concealer should match your skin tone. A very light color can amplify the appearance of bags under the eyes.

As for eyebrows, you already know that the trend is no longer for very fine and defined eyebrows. This can make you look tough and save you a few more years. Make up your eyebrows to make them fuller and thicker, to intensify your look and give them a more youthful appearance. Also, avoid using black kohl and prefer a gray or brown color to soften the look. Also opt for smoky eyes and do not emphasize the lower part of the eyes. This will make them look smaller and make you look older. Apply mascara only to the upper lashes.

Applying a large amount of blush on the middle of your cheeks will tend to age you, especially if the color is very intense. To look youthful, opt for soft tones and apply the blush to the top of the cheekbones and blend towards the temples.

Do not remove makeup from your face after applying makeup.
The mistake that must be avoided at all costs and that runs the risk of damaging the skin is not removing makeup from your face at night, before going to bed. In fact, the base layer prevents the skin from breathing. As a result, pores become clogged and collagen breaks down. This is what causes the appearance of pimples and wrinkles. Plus, if you don’t remove your eye makeup, your eyelashes won’t be able to nourish themselves. Then they dry and break. Not to mention, mascara residue can settle under the eyelid and cause conjunctivitis or infection.

By avoiding these makeup mistakes, you will improve your appearance, without looking older.
