How to shine and look younger: blush tips for women 40+

Daily makeup needs adjustments depending on the age-related needs of the skin. Products and techniques appropriate at 25 may be irrelevant at age 40+. You need to be especially cautious with decorative cosmetics, particularly blush.

Vogue experts have recommended a simple way to apply makeup that will give your skin a radiant glow. A pleasant bonus - this blush blending technique guarantees a flawless finish, as well as an instant lifting effect.

Step-by-step instructions

To create the perfect makeup look, you need two products: liquid blush and liquid highlighter. It is important that they have the same texture.

1. Apply the blush and highlighter to your cheeks with a brush or your fingertips.
2. Pre-mixing the highlighter with the blush, rather than applying them separately, eliminates the risk of streaks or harsh lines.
3. The blush will blend seamlessly into the skin, which is the key to a radiant effect and instant skin rejuvenation.

Many women tend to shy away from using highlighter or shimmer as they get older, as these products don't always work well on mature skin. The good news is that liquid and cream blushes and easy-to-blend highlighters work extremely effectively.

By the way, the trend for clear contouring and layered foundation application is a thing of the past. Beauty experts are emphasizing maximum naturalness and natural glow of the skin.

Summer 2024 brought back the"boyfriend blush"blush application technique. Mixing blush and highlighter at several points creates a subtle effect of a light natural tan. For this technique, the key factor is the accuracy of placement: apply blush should be in the depression on the cheeks under the cheekbones.
