How to look younger: Avoid 'most common mistake' with your makeup – it 'ages you'

Using a heavy foundation settles into fine lines

The experts explained that as skin matures, “so should the foundation people use”.

Using a heavier, cream-based or full-coverage foundation “can cause the makeup to settle into fine lines and creases, highlighting any imperfections”.

Therefore, it is essential to opt for a serum-based foundation or tinted moisturiser that gives the illusion of hydrated, glowing skin.

“You’ll look more awake, youthful and you’ll still be able to cover imperfections,” the make-up artist explained.
