When it comes to makeup, you’re likely doing a bunch of things that actually age your face. In fact, there are specific makeup mistakes you can avoid in order to make your face look younger and more refreshed. But, before we get into the makeup mistakes themselves, I want to start off with some ways to ensure that your overall beauty routine is going to be helping you look younger. In general, the goal is for less-is-more when it comes to applying makeup on your face if you want your complexion to look healthy and youthful.
You're a grown woman and you shouldn't feel the need to wear makeup. But, if you are going to wear it, try taking a more natural approach. There's no reason for you to slather on foundation or contour your face in order for it to look younger. Use BB cream instead of foundation and focus more on using light hand when applying your makeup. Also try using less eyeliner so that your eyes pop without looking overdone.
When applying foundation, you should always use the smallest amount possible. This ensures that you do not lay down too much product on your face and create a cakey look. If you are applying too much foundation, it can make your skin look unnatural and older than it is.
To test if you have applied enough foundation, look into a mirror at an angle so that all of your face can be seen in one glance. The color of your skin should match the color of your neck with no major differences between the two — if there is any difference at all then it means that either too much or too little product has been used on one side of the face or another.
If this happens to be true for most areas on your face (i.e., both cheeks appear overly pale compared to other spots), then pick up more product with a sponge and start applying in small circles from top-to-bottom rather than side-to-side until everything looks even again!
There are a lot of reasons why powder can add years to your appearance. First, it’s a common misconception that powder should always be applied to the face after applying foundation. Powder is actually intended to set makeup and keep it in place—not create an even skin tone. When you layer on too much powder, however, it can settle into fine lines and creases on the skin and make them look much more pronounced than they actually are; this happens because there’s not enough moisture left in the pores and wrinkles for them to expand naturally when exposed to air. If you want your foundation and concealer blend seamlessly into one another with no visible demarcation between them (which helps minimize any redness or discoloration), consider using a translucent setting lotion instead of high-coverage products like foundation or concealer so that everything blends together smoothly without adding extra layers of coverage!
Moreover—and maybe most importantly—powder products have been shown time after time again through scientific studies conducted by cosmetic companies themselves as well as independent researchers at universities such as Harvard Medical School that these materials cause premature aging among women who apply them daily over long periods of time!

Use the right tools for the job. While there are many makeup tools on the market, not all of them are created equal. Makeup brushes and sponges are two popular types of applicators that can be used to apply various types of makeup. While both tools have their pros and cons, knowing which to use for what will help you achieve a flawless look in less time.
Know your foundation from concealer and powder. Your skin type determines whether you should apply foundation, concealer or powder first—and how much coverage you want out of each product. If you're unsure about which products work best for your complexion, consult a professional before heading out into the world with an incomplete face of makeup!
Your eyeliner can make you look older if it is applied too thickly or in the wrong place. That's because, as we get older, our skin loses elasticity. For this reason, it's important to keep your eye makeup simple and clean-lined.
Instead of applying eyeliner all over the lid and smudging it out (as was popular in the 90s), try using a few dabs of pencil liner along the upper lash line in order to achieve that "windswept" effect without looking like you're wearing a mask of black paint on your face. If you want more drama (but still want to avoid raccoon eyes), apply liner only at the outer corners of eyes for that sultry cat eye look—this will add shape and definition without giving away how old-fashioned this technique really is!
Primer is a product that smooths out pores, fills them in, and evens out the skin so that makeup can go on more smoothly. It also helps make your foundation last longer and look more natural. Primer can also help keep your makeup looking its best through sweat, oiliness, or humidity—which are things we all deal with sometimes!
As we’ve seen, there are a lot of mistakes that can make you look older than you are. So how do we avoid them? A great way to start is by taking a more natural approach to your makeup. This might mean experimenting with sheer foundation or tinted moisturizer to even out your complexion instead of reaching for full-coverage foundations every time—and it’s also a good reminder that "no makeup" days can be just as beautiful! It might also mean switching from a primer made with silicones (which tend to look cakey) to one made with hydrating ingredients like glycerin or aloe, or using the right tools. That said, the most important tip is always this: enjoy yourself!
