You can hate it all you want; the fact remains that no one can beat time. Even though modern science and plastic surgery give us a good alternative, this alternative is very invasive and traumatic for the body. So, instead of putting yourself under a knife, you can learn more about makeup and how apply it properly. Check out our tips that will make you look much younger!

Prioritize your skin
You skin is like a canvas on which different colors are placed. If that canvas is of poor quality or damaged, the final painting will be bad. Based on the quality of your skin, you will require more or less makeup to cover imperfections. This is why young women need to be careful and moderate when using the makeup. Although excessive products can make you look nice when you are young, they will lead to some horrible consequences as you grow older. Hydrating is the key!

Making your lips look fuller
Similarly to the rest of your face, wrinkles will start appearing on your lips. This will make use of makeup much harder. First of all, you need to avoid extreme colors. Avoid strong nuances whether they are too bright or too dark. They will only place emphasis on your wrinkles making them more obvious. Use tones that are a bit lighter or darker than your natural lip color. Add some lip gloss on top of it and you will get amazing results. Next time you look in the mirror, you will love the person on the other end!

Put focus on your eyes
Unlike your skin, your eyes will be unaffected by the passing of time. Even when you were young, they were probably the dominant feature of your face. So, why stop now? Make sure to place focus on your eyes. Distraction is the key. Use eye shadow that will emphasize your eyes. If you have brown eyes, golden or gray eye shadow will do the trick. On the other hand, green and blue eyes can be easily matched with blue-gray nuance. Lastly, dark eyes go well with dark eye shadow.

Do not overdo it with makeup
You know how they say “Less is more”? Well, this also applies when it comes to makeup. Younger women can pull off having a lot of makeup. However, as you get older, wrinkles make this harder. When you overdo it with makeup, your facial imperfections become more obvious. Instead, you should use plain, natural nuances that will go well with your natural skin complexion.

Curl your eyelashes
As I mentioned, eyes should be focal point of your face. Good way to highlight them is by curling the eyelashes. While sitting in front of your mirror, check your eyelashes. Ask yourself, what can I do to improve them? Most women have issue as their eyelashes are not as lush as they were in their youth. As a solution, they can get extension. This will make eyelashes easy to curl.

Add some blush
A lot of women misuse blush or they do not use it at all. This is a big mistake as the blush can do wonders for old, saggy skin. By using a bit of blush, you can add color to your face. However, you need to be careful not to overdo it. Blush should only add some color to your face, adjusting your skin complexion. It shouldn’t change it.

With these tips, you have the necessary knowledge that will help you improve your skin making it as youthful as it once was.
