5 Easy Makeup Tricks To Look 10
Years Younger
By: Tysen Julian
1. LIFT YOUR BROWSHigh, full brows look youthful and help
define all your features, says Los Angeles
makeup artist Brett Freedman. Use a
brow powder or pencil a shade lighter
than your hair color to fill in sparse
areas, then sweep a fine line right above
the top of the arch. Try Wet n Wild Twin
Eye/Brow Pencil ($2.50, drugstore.com).

2. CAMOUFLAGE CROW’S FEET
Nix heavy cover-up, which makes lines
more obvious, says Matin Maulawizada
of Laura Mercier Cosmetics. Instead,
brighten the area with concealer under
the outer third of your lower lashes and
a creamy highlighter such as Benefit Ooh
La Lift ($22, benefitcosmetics.com) just
below any lines.
3. REDUCE “PARENTHESES”To diminish the lines that run from your
nose to your mouth, apply concealer one
shade lighter than your skin over the
shadow below the fold only, not over
the entire crease, says Maulawizada.
This pro trick reduces the appearance
of a defined edge. Try Laura Mercier
Secret Camouflage
($34, lauramercier.com)
4. PEP UP YOUR POUT“The sides of the mouth tend to droop
with age,” says Joanna Schlip, makeup
art ist for Physicians Formula. “To
lessen the effect, brush highlighter on
the corners and concealer just below
the outer edges of your lower lip to
minimize shadows.” Try Sonia Kashuk
Mul t i-Purpose Ny lon Brush ($16,
soniakashuk.com).
5. SLIM A DOUBLE CHINApply a light layer of foundation or
matte bronzer two shades darker than
your skin under your chin, shading over
any jowl, suggests Maulawizada. Try
Rimmel London Natural Bronzer ($5,
ulta.com). Blend toward your neck,
using a sponge or brush.
