7 Simple Makeup Tricks to Make You Look Younger ...

Ladies, when you choose a foundation that is thick and cake-like, you have made a mistake. I get that you want to cover your spots and blemishes. Do that with concealer and choose a lighter, sheerer foundation formula. This can take years off of your face and is one of the best makeup tricks to make you look younger instantly. Another tip to follow is always apply moisturizer before your foundation. It gives the foundation a smoother surface to work with.

Dark, vampy lipsticks are for the vamps. Don’t go there. Choose a lighter lipstick and you will be amazed how young you look. If you are in doubt of what shade is best for you, go for a nude. Or you can do what you do and take a lipstick expert along for your lipstick shopping.

I cringe when I see penciled on eyebrows. They absolutely scream senior citizen. If you need a little help in the eyebrow department, have them tinted. You can have this done for a very low price and it looks so much more natural and youthful. If you must use a pencil, use a very light hand and do feathery strokes.

When you apply eyeliner on the bottom part of your eye, you are causing attention to go to the bottom part of your eye. You know, the part where the bags, wrinkles and dark circles live. No one wants to draw attention there. Unless you have very youthful eyes, stick to using your eyeliner only on the top part of your eyes. The same trick can be applied with mascara, as well.

Anytime you wear shimmer on your eyes, you are calling attention to every little crease. Choose matte shades for your eye shadow. You will be amazed what a difference this makes in your makeup. Matte shades enhance your eyes as opposed to overshadowing them, as well.

As we age, we get little wrinkles around our lips that are very unattractive. They are even more unattractive when your lipstick bleeds into them.
