How to tighten your face with makeup: secrets for women 50+

It is possible to tighten the oval of the face without contouring. Makeup experts convince us of this.

According to them, women over the age of 50 can make themselves look younger with the help of cosmetics alone – without resorting to invasive procedures. OBOZ.UA tells about the main life hacks of makeup artists.

First of all, they recommend highlighting the most spectacular parts of the face, such as cheekbones, eyes, or jawline. This technique works regardless of age and should not be abandoned. Also, give preference to lighter textures of cosmetics that will cover the skin with a translucent layer and will not get clogged in the skin folds. As for the rest, here are some tricks that will be extremely useful.

Move the blush higher on the cheekbones

The main rule of sculpting in adulthood is to apply the contouring product in an upward direction. This technique allows you to visually tighten your facial features. But you also need to raise the blush application area higher. Do not apply the product on the apples of the cheeks but on the highest point of the zygomatic bone. Blend everything well and enjoy a fresh and youthful look in the mirror.

Make the tails of your eyeliner and eyebrows longer

The tails of the eyeliner line should also be directed upwards. This way you will lift your eyes and visually tone up this area. But to maximize the opening of the gaze, you will also have to make the arch of the eyebrow higher and the tip more curved and long.

Use a transitional shade of eye shadow

Sagging skin on the eyelids can be compensated for by adding depth to the crease area with the help of eyeshadow. Choose a product color that is 2 shades darker than your natural skin tone to create the exact effect you want. Apply the eyeshadow to the crease area and blend well. This will open the eyes and disguise droopy eyelids. Volume mascara will help to complete the look. It will better highlight the eyes and make the look more expressive.

Apply concealer to three points to tighten the face

To brighten the central part of the face, tighten the eye area, and not overdo it with concealer, apply this product on three key points. The first is near the wing of the nose, the second is under the inner corner of the eye, and the third is near the outer corner. Next, blend these three points with a makeup sponge, blending them. Move from the lower point and towards the temple. This will visually tighten the eye line and make the whole look more radiant.
