Who doesn’t want to age gracefully? We use skincare & makeup products here and there but no matter how much we use products, if we’re doing our makeup or skincare techniques wrong, it might make us look older than our age.
1. Heavy, thick foundation
Caking foundation all over the place can look mask-like and really add on years. Apply a one layer of foundation and go over your concealer to cover blemishes. ❎
2. Going overboard with shimmers
Unless you’re going to a night event, I recommend to use less shimmers. Instead of brightening up our complexion, they exacerbate the appearance of dry skin or fine lines. Go for neutral shades and pick an eyeshadow with subtle shimmer ✨
3. Overusing mascara on the lower lashes
Overusing mascara on lower lashes bring a ripple effect, by over highlighting the wrinkles and possible acne around that are or give off an old look. 👀
4. Skipping sunscreen
People who use broad-spectrum sunscreen on a daily basis experience less skin aging. It also protects our skin from skin cancer and nasty sunburn. So don’t skip your sunscreen and don’t forget to apply on your neck! 😉
