How to Give Yourself A Face Lift With Makeup

Hey Everybody!  Get Excited! Get Excited!  Let’s talk lifting the face with makeup…Did you know that applying makeup can lift/slim your face and also make you look younger?

Before giving yourself a face makeup lift use a moisturizer, night cream and SPF to help tighten your skin and enliven your pores.   Let’s get started…

Eyebrows
Tweeze your eyebrows to achieve a more lifted look in the eye area. Use an eyebrow stencil to help you get a good arching shape that is neither too high nor too straight. Then apply light shade concealer underneath the brow bone using an angle brush. Follow with an eye shadow one shade lighter than your concealer.

Cheekbones
To lift cheekbones choose a bronzer that is a few shades darker than your natural color.  Also, pick additional bronzer that has little shimmer.  Dust a light line of shimmer bronzer from your hairline to the apple of your cheek. Put the darker bronzer in the area that is sunken in when you suck in your cheeks and not on the actual cheek bone

Jawline
To lift jawline apply your regular foundation over clean, moisturized skin Use a concealer brush to apply a liquid highlighter into the creases or jowl lines.  Apply a lightweight, fluid concealer over the highlighted areas. This takes off the high-shimmer, while allowing a little of the radiance to show thorough, making jowl lines less obvious.

Pro Tip:  Use a white highlighter on the inside rim of the eye to help whiten/brighten to give the eyes a more youth look
