No one is immune to aging. We will all one day have signs that don't lie: wrinkled skin, more pronounced dark circles, uneven skin tone, sun spots, etc.
Despite the efforts of a healthy lifestyle and quality facial care, it's not always enough to maintain a more youthful appearance. So what can we do? This is where makeup becomes our savior!
I often hear women say that they don't know how to apply makeup or that they don't know how to properly use the products they have. So, what should we do and what should we use?
Here are my steps and tips for a natural anti-aging look:
1 - Moisturize the skin well . Proper hydration will soften the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Ideally, moisturize about 30 minutes before applying makeup so that the skin has time to absorb properly. No time? Use Eau Teint for rapid hydration and absorption.

2 - Conceal dark circles. Sunken eyes make you look aged and tired. Using concealer that's slightly lighter than your skin tone will brighten your eyes and make you look healthier.

3 - Even out your skin tone. If you were a tanning enthusiast in your youth, it's possible that over time, the remnants of this practice will appear in the form of uneven brown spots. A full-coverage foundation will help you conceal them.

4 - Set concealer and foundation well with HD powder. Matte skin will reduce the appearance of wrinkles, while shiny, light-catching skin will accentuate them. This step will also extend the wear of your makeup.

5 - Keep your eye makeup simple. For a lifting effect on the eyelid, use a neutral color like dark browns or beiges, and draw a slightly higher crease than your natural eyelid. This will open up the eyes by making them appear larger. It is very important to use a matte color. An iridescent shade on a mature eyelid will accentuate the "wrinkled" effect. Then, apply mascara to further define your eyes. If your eyelid isn't too droopy, highlighter on the eyelid can also be very effective in defining your eyes.

6 - Define your eyebrows. If your eyebrows are less full, or if you've been a victim of unfashionable hair removal, it's a good idea to accentuate them. Well-defined eyebrows give a youthful look. Be careful, however, not to create a line when drawing the eyebrow, but rather a gradient shading effect. Use the brush to create this effect by brushing on the color.

7 - Accentuate your cheekbone discreetly . With a slightly pink shade, apply it to the cheekbone and not in the hollow. Hollowing out the cheeks will give a less youthful effect than a beautiful, healthy cheekbone!

8 - Lips. As we age, our lips become less plump than they were in our youth. There's no point in cheating and trying to make them look bigger by outlining them, as the effect will be obvious and coarse. Instead, opt for a natural shine that will naturally increase volume.
