Make-up errors that age you

Foundation

Choosing the wrong tone - too dark or too light - is a common error, creating that awful mask-like effect, and highlighting small wrinkles and expression lines.

Corrector

The corrector can be your ally or your worst enemy. Blend it in well ensuring there are no globs.

Blusher

Use pinkish tones. Dark tones on a whitish skin harshen your features and therefore add years.

Mascara

Do not apply too much black mascara on the lower lashes, you will only manage to highlight your crow’s feet - if you have any - and eyebags.

Eyeshadow

Too much eyeshadow will make your eyes look too heavy. It is better to use powdered eyeshadow than cream.

Lips

Choose natural tones from the nude range, pinks or soft peaches; they make you look younger.
