These 3 Eyeshadow Tricks Make The Eyes Look Younger

Eyeshadow that emphasizes fine lines and wrinkles can make the eye area look older. You can prevent this with these tips.

Makeup can be wonderfully tricky. But the delicate eye area in particular can be a real challenge. After all, fine lines and the first wrinkles often appear around the eyes, which makes it difficult to apply the right makeup tricks. So how do you make the eye area look young and fresh despite the first signs of aging?

1. Create the perfect base

The right care products are the basis for successful eye make-up. Older skin in particular needs a lot of moisture so that it is plumped up and tightened again.

Tip: Apply your favorite eye care not only under the eyes, but also spread some cream directly on the eyelids and let it absorb well. This ensures an awake, fresh look and prevents eyeshadow or other makeup products from settling into the wrinkles later on.

2. Use primer

An eyeshadow base is a must if you want your eyeshadow to last all day – whether you’re young or old. But especially as we get older and drooping eyelids eventually form, an eyeshadow primer is an indispensable step in the makeup routine to prevent color from accumulating in the crease of the eyelid. Positive side effect: The primer additionally intensifies the color of the eyeshadow, so that it comes into its own even better.

3. Which eye shadow suits me?

In order not to additionally emphasize eye wrinkles, one should rely on matte formulations instead of eye shadow with shimmer or coarse glitter particles. Make-up artists also recommend creamy textures or eye shadow pencils instead of powder eye shadows, as these provide additional moisture and are easy to blend. As far as colors are concerned, neutral tones such as taupe, champagne, soft pink and brown suit mature skin best.
