Best makeup tricks to look younger

Before telling you the tricks we have for you, first we advise you to follow a facial cleansing and hydration routine so that your skin is always prepared before applying makeup. Here is a post with all the steps to follow to look a young and perfect skin.

The primer is the key

The first step in your makeup routine to look younger is to start with a good primer that allows the makeup to set well. This primer should disguise wrinkles or expression lines, leaving an even complexion and a lot more luminous. We recommend choosing one that is light and, if possible, reduces the appearance of pores.

Eliminate dark circles

Dark circles and eye bags are that great enemy that often add more years than we have. To eliminate them, the best is to have a concealer at hand. But be careful, because often to disguise them we fall into the mistake of applying too much concealer and this can have the opposite effect, as it will make expression lines much more marked.

To apply it correctly, we recommend that you apply a very thin layer and spread it with small taps. If you need more, you can always add a few more layers. Finally, don't forget to set it with translucent powders. Also, check out our article on how to apply dark circle concealer because we explain everything much better step by step.

The highlighter

Restore the vitality of your face with a highlighter that will create a rejuvenating effect. Apply it to the forehead area, the nose, the Cupid's bow, the cheekbones, and the center of the mobile eyelid. The best is apply it before the foundation, although you can also apply it afterwards without any problem.

The foundation

Choosing a foundation that matches your skin tone is the key to looking younger. You should avoid choosing darker tones. The best is to the foundation matches your skin tone or slightly lighter to add light and create a rejuvenating effect.

On the other hand, avoid foundations too greasy, choose those that have sun protection and don't forget to always apply it with a sponge for an even finish. By the way! In our post about the best low-cost foundations you will find high-quality products at a very good price.

Colors and eyeshadows to look younger

If you want to look younger, avoid very dark eyeshadow tones in your makeup. Black or brown are serious colors that will not bring youthfulness at all. However, colors like pink, salmon, or blue are much cheerier and will give light and freshness to your gaze.

Also, choose matte textures instead of shimmers because they blend with the skin much better and hide expression lines more easily. Look here the best eyeshadow palettes that we have selected for you.

Eyeliner pencil

To apply eye makeup, avoid a black pencil on the lower part and opt for one of white color. Also add a bit of highlighter on the inner corner of the eye. This way, you will achieve a look with a lot of more depth.

Don't forget to add volume to your lashes with a black mascara to further enlarge the eyes. A trick for the lower lashes is to apply the mascara only from the center outward.

Eyebrows

Eyebrows can help your face look young if you know well how to style them. Forget about thin and defined eyebrows and switch to thick and messy, since they add a lot of more vitality and freshness. You can use an eyebrow pencil of the same shade as your hair to add volume. And if you want, you can create a lifting effect applying a little highlighter under the brow arch.

Cheekbones

With age, the cheekbones lose collagen, which causes them to sag slightly, so the trick to restore that youth to your face is to apply blush on the upper part of the cheekbones.

Lips

The trick to make your lips look young and plump is to outline them with a pencil exactly of the same shade as the lipstick that you use. You can use the color you like the most, but if, for example, your eyes are heavily made up, the best will be to opt for nude tones. On the other hand, if you don’t wear much makeup, you can opt for more intense colors that make your lips the protagonists. Of course, don’t forget to exfoliate and hydrate with petroleum jelly the lips regularly.

You can use a lot of ingredients to make them, and depending on what you use, they can have different benefits for your skin. For example, one of the most popular is the cucumber mask which fights dry skin and helps repair it, leaving it much softer and more hydrated.
