If you notice tiredness, dark circles and dull skin as soon as you look at your face in the mirror, then it is time to update your makeup bag. Correct technique and small changes can take years off your look. The amazing thing is that for this, not heavy makeup, but just a few wisely chosen hacks are enough.

Luminous base, soft blush, bright eyes and glossy lips – these easy steps give instant freshness and younger look to the face. If you also want to look 10 years younger than your age, then definitely try these smart makeup tricks.

color correction

Dark circles and spots give signs of age. This is where color correction works magic.

  • Peach tone: under the eyes and on dark spots
  • Green tone: to reduce redness
  • Purple Tone: To remove dullness
  • Yellow Tone: To balance uneven skin tone

Apply these shades lightly, then blend with skin tone concealer or foundation.

Choose luminous foundation, not matte

Matte finishes often make skin look flat and dry, which can make it look older. Instead, choose a hydrating, glow-giving foundation. The slight glow makes skin look vibrant and fresh.

eye makeup

Thin eyebrows are no longer in trend. Fill in gaps lightly, keep the shapes soft and blend with a brush. Full, natural looking eyebrows give the face an instantly youthful look. To keep your eyes from looking tired even after less sleep, apply white or nude liner on the waterline. Light lining on the inner corner of the eyes and mascara on curled eyelashes – the eyes will look bigger and brighter.

Bring natural pinkness with blush

Apply light pink blush to the cheeks, bridge of the nose, chin and forehead where sunlight naturally falls. It fills the face with freshness and youth. Use highlighter lightly on cheekbones, bridge of the nose and Cupid’s bow. The aim is not to shine, but to give a glowing look from within. Instead of matte lipstick, apply nude, peach or soft pink gloss. Lips look full and young.

Use setting spray, not powder

Powder can settle into lines. Use setting spray to lock makeup, making skin look dewy and smooth. Keep your makeup fresh by spraying a light dew mist. This makes the skin look hydrated and glowing throughout the day.
