Here’s my 5 Top Make Up Mistakes That Make You Look Older:

1. Not considering a good skin and skin care routine.

Nothing beats a good canvas to start on. Just like a painter works on a clean blank pristine slate. It’s good to have a good and taken care off skin. So months before an event make sure you check on your skin.

2. Not considering proper eyebrow correction.

Your eyebrows frames your face and is very crucial in maintaning balance in your facial symmetry.

Do keep in mind mind that “Your brows should be sisters not twins.”

3. You are in your wrong shade of foundation.

You should always match your foundation tone with you face.

Did you know that a foundation too light will make you look older.

Acidic skin can make your foundation look darker and your skin older as well so we need that perfect balance.

4. Too much contouring and highlights

When done properly contouring and highlights will surely work magic for your face. It will definitely hide and bring out your facial structure and your best features.

Contouring is done with darker tones to hide and shade your flaws.

Highlighter on the other hand brings out your best features using shimmer or lighter shades.

On the other hand,

Too much contouring or highlights will make you look like drag and bring definition on your fine and age lines.

5. Not investing in a lasting and waterproof make up

With the humidity and temperature here in the Philippines. It is really best to invest in lasting and waterproof make up that will be sweat and tear proof specially for brides.

You wouldn’t want to look like a panda on your big day or event,right?🐼
