Stop: top 7 makeup mistakes that age you

Before performing makeup, it is important for a makeup artist to analyze the client’s color type, face shape, eye, face and hair color. Another important factor that influences the choice of makeup is the woman’s age. You should not ignore it, so as not to end up creating an image that will make the client visually older. We are sure that few people will like this metamorphosis.

We have collected the most common mistakes in makeup by makeup artists and their clients that add age.

Dense tone

I wonder what makes you look older in makeup? For example, a thick layer of foundation. It further emphasizes the wrinkles that are on the client’s face. For age-related makeup, use light foundations that will help hide imperfections and will not create a mask effect. Choose moisturizing beauty products if your skin is dry and prone to dryness - mattifying products will only emphasize flaking.

A thick layer of concealer

Error from the same opera. A densely applied product rolls into wrinkles, increasing their number and depth over time. Makeup artists recommend applying a thin layer of concealer using a soft brush or patting movements with your fingers. By the way, powdering the area around the eyes increases the visibility of existing wrinkles and adds age.

Powdering the entire face

A thick layer of mattifying powder all over the face is the worst thing you can do when performing makeup on a woman over 35. All age-related changes will become more obvious, so the client will visually look five years older. Apply powder only to certain areas of the face that especially need to absorb sebum: forehead, nose and chin. Leave the cheeks and area around the eyes untouched.

Dark blush

Women with fair skin and blond hair are contraindicated in darkshades of blush - they will visually age you. Choose the most natural blush tones that will refresh your look and definitely won’t do a bad job. At your disposal are peach, soft pink and blush in calm berry shades. Bright coral, plum and mauve colors should be put aside when doing anti-aging makeup.

Unnatural shades of shadows

What eye makeup makes you look older? The answer is simple - unnatural. If you are doing makeup for a young girl, you have the entire range of shadow shades at your disposal, but for an adult woman, choose the most natural shades. Avoid purple, blue, black, dark gray tones, as well as too loud pinks, oranges and reds.

Graphic eyebrows

Sharp lines in makeup always add age, so you should avoid them on all fronts, including eyebrow makeup. Give up the emphasized contour so that the look is not heavy and emphatically stern. Try to achieve the most natural result and soft effect.

Dark lip makeup

Too dark shades of lipstick will negatively affect the overall look, adding extra years. Plum, purple, maroon and dark brown lipsticks with cool undertones will create a dark look, creating a “dead lip” effect.

Now you know what kind of makeup makes you look older, and you won’t make these mistakes in your work. Strive for maximum naturalness in the images of women over 35-40 years old, so that the result only pleases them and you.
