Skip the surgery There's no need to go under the knife
to discover the fountain of youth.
"Well, I uh… I had bad plastic surgery. Should've known this doctor was a quack. His office was in like a warehouse".
Celebrity plastic surgeon, Dr. Michelle Yagoda, recommends
non-surgical skin treatments, saying,
"You can achieve a younger look and complexion through less drastic but also more temporary non-surgical means, such as facial peels, injectables, or laser treatments".
These treatments may not be permanent, but they're
often more affordable and offer a more natural way to achieve a younger
appearance. Bat those lashes It may be a cliché, but your eyes are the window
to your soul. And playing up your lashes is key to looking younger.
Avon celebrity makeup artist, Kelsey Deenihan, knows it
only takes a little lengthening mascara for a megawatt effect. She says,
"Making your lashes the main attraction of your look makes your eyes appear bigger and more youthful without needing to use liner or shadow, which can make the eye look heavy".
Our lashes get thinner as we age, which can make us
look older. Simply curl them and coat them in a few layers of mascara, and
you'll be raking in the compliments in no time.
"Is any part of you real? Are your lashes even real?"
"What! Oh, they're real!" "They're beautiful. Can I stay? OK".
Powder play Lead makeup artist at
Complexions Spa for face beauty and wellness, Natalie Dekermendjian, suggests using
cream formulas rather than powders, which can settle into lines.
However, if it's powder your prefer, she says,
"Use a light hand to avoid emphasizing fine lines and wrinkles. A simple the trick is to tap off excess powder from the brush before applying to your face".
When it comes to blush, makeup artist KaseyAdam
Spickard, recommends cream blushes (in peaches and pinks) for glowy skin.
"When you are putting on your makeup, it's like you're an artist. But instead of painting on a canvas, you' repainting your face".
Hello, highlighter can be tricky since it
can call attention to fine lines. But Deenihan says you just have to apply it properly,
to enjoy all of its youthful benefits. She explains,
"Young skin has a natural radiant glow to it. You can fake it with a bit of highlighter by dabbing it onto your cheekbones and the inner corners of your eyelids with your fingers".
Trending toward classic
"The light concealing cream goes on first. Then you blend, and blend, and blend. Blending is the secret. Mm-hmm."
According to celeb makeup artist Min Min Ma, if you skip
the trends, and keep things classic with your makeup, you'll never go wrong.
She says,
"For daytime makeup, stick to a bronzy look or a natural complexion, with a simple eyeliner flick. For dramatic looks, go with classic red lips or smoky eye".
Classic beauty icons like Marilyn
Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Diana Ross, or Iman nailed this look every time. Start
with your skin
"Let's do a makeover." "No".
Good skin is
always in! And investing in top-notch skin care is critical.
Ma noted there are plenty of ways to do right by your
skin, saying,
"It could be getting facials regularly, using quality skincare products, or eating a healthy balanced diet. When the skin is glowing and youthful-looking, anything goes".
Esthetician Theodora Koutsougeras owner of reishi Beauty also recommends getting into the habit of using oils on your skin,
which can be specifically tailored to your type.
Brush it off Exfoliation is also an important ritual
for glowing skin. Berenice S. Rothenberg recommends exfoliating.
"One to two times a week, to break up the keratinized protein that accumulates on the skin, which accelerates during the colder winter months".
If you are a little apprehensive about using exfoliants
on aging skin, don't be! Rothenberg explained that removing those unhealthy skin
cells lets products work more effectively. Get that color in check Those dark
circles can add years to your face, but don't immediately hit up the concealer.
Lauren Serra of Blushington Makeup and Beauty Lounge
recommends color correcting under your eyes, instead of using concealer. With
lots of colors correcting products and palettes on the market that address a
variety of issues, you'll just need to put in a little time finding the right
one for you.
"You are your own rainbow".
Do the dew, not the disco as we age, our skin can
become dull and lose elasticity. But jumping on the glittery bandwagon won't help.
Instead, get your glow on through a dewy look. Spickard says this technique.
"Makes the skin look years younger and dewy without being glittery or metallic".
He suggests using a dewy foundation, topped with an
all-over glow product on the high points of the face. Now, you're really ready
to let it glow!
"Krispy Kreme glaze, Dunkin' Donuts… She's ready".
