Nude makeup
Nude makeup
The less you notice that you are wearing makeup, the better. Recreate that rejuvenating nudity with a base the same color as your skin and better if it is light so that you do not have that unflattering mask effect. If you want to raise the tone of your skin, apply sun powder, never a darker base because it would age you.

Makeup can make your skin appear fresher, like you've been on vacation for a week, sleeping 8 hours every night. You just have to put a touch of highlighter on the tear duct of the eye and under the arch of the eyebrow.

Give strength to your eyes using mascara and outlining them. But be careful with the lower line, trace it flush with the lashes, not inside, so as not to make them smaller. Big eyes rejuvenate. To make your look look more sophisticated, you can do a smoky makeup, but changing the gray shades for brown, like these from Dior. The result is more natural.
- Watch out for bright shadows! Do not abuse, because they could show the wrinkles. Better dunks.
- And balance the makeup. If you accentuate the look, choose a light color for the lips. A very saturated makeup puts years.
Tricks to enlarge the eyes
Tricks to enlarge the eyes
We have told you that large eyes rejuvenate so here we leave you 3 tricks to enlarge them with makeup.
- Lengthen and curl your lashes with mascara. Fan-shaped eyelashes open your eyes. To achieve this effect, place the brush at the base of the lashes and slide it in a zigzag motion upwards. Insist on the outermost part of the eye.
- The tightlining or invisible profiling. The invisible eyeliner consists of delineating the eye through the inner area of the upper eyelid. The line is barely visible, but the eyes appear larger and the lash thickness is optically increased. It is the secret of many celebrities.
- The eyebrows, slightly arched. We do not ask you to leave them triangular, but we do ask that you subtly accentuate the arch of the eyebrow. In this way, your eyes will look more clear and larger, especially if you have droopy eyelids.
