Subtleties of make-up
In order for makeup to be as natural as possible, the lightening and darkening corrector should differ by 1-2 orders of magnitude from the base . When modeling, the order of application is taken into account: main tone, powder, shading dry products. If the latter have a creamy texture, then they are applied before powder.
Cosmetics are carefully shaded, especially on the border between shades. First, the face is cleansed and a moisturizer is applied, which will nourish the skin from the inside and make it smooth and youthful.
You should also consider several “taboos” of anti-aging makeup:
- overly oily or light foundation is contraindicated;
- orange and brown blush look unnatural on aging skin, give fatigue, emphasize the rays of wrinkles, natural pink or pink-peach tones are preferable;
- is necessary when applying powder : if it is in excess, all unevenness is emphasized, adding age.
How to make facial wrinkles around the mouth visually invisible using cosmetics?
There are a few more tips from makeup artists that you need to follow to divert attention from nasolabial wrinkles.
Make facial wrinkles around the mouth visually invisible:
- If you have nasolabial wrinkles, try not to use very dark lipstick. The use of dark brown or purple lipstick is excluded, as they provide a shadow and further emphasize nasolabial wrinkles.
- This is usually visible in the evening, when the light falls from top to bottom. Thus, the area of nasolabial wrinkles darkens and becomes more distinct.
- It gives age, and adds a few extra years. In addition, women over 50 should be careful when choosing a hairstyle. All the straight lines and cuts of your hair show up on your face.
Makeup application patterns
About the reasons
Nasolabial folds can appear as a result of:
- lack of care procedures or improper implementation, for example, you do not cleanse your skin correctly or do not perform deep peeling sessions;
- features of the facial structure, and it would seem that nothing can be done about it, but you can disguise it - try the makeup, which we will talk about below;
- excessive fullness;
- age - sagging skin.
This is why it is so important to take care of your facial skin from a young age. If there is a predisposition - if the facial structure is similar or if you are overweight - then nasolabial lips appear early. This means you should watch your excess weight and take extra care of your skin.
Age-related ptosis occurs because the muscles in the upper part of your face are more prone to thinning and loss of firmness. The older you get, the more the muscles weaken and hold the skin worse - and as a result: it sags.
How to disguise nasolabial folds with cosmetics?
As you know, with age the face becomes angular and the features sharp. All straight cuts of hair only emphasize this flaw.
How to disguise nasolabial folds:
- To divert attention from nasolabial wrinkles and make them less pronounced, try to choose hairstyles with graduations and smooth transitions.
- Therefore, it is best to abandon explicit abstraction with sharp corners, as well as even cuts.
- As for hair color, dark curls also emphasize nasolabial wrinkles. It is best to lighten your hair several tones. The best option would be dyeing using the shatush or ombre technique.
Applying makeup
Smooth hairstyles and dyeing in different colors are ideal for older women who have pronounced nasolabial wrinkles. This may be coloring, but in no case should there be obvious color transitions. It is best if it is a gradient and smooth shading.
Avoiding mistakes
If you have obvious nasolabial folds, then do not use lipstick that makes you look older. And burgundy and plum shades age. They only emphasize the “nasolabials”.
In addition, it is important to choose the right tone of the product or foundation. You can’t take it too light, because this will only deliberately emphasize the flaw.
Foundation and concealer should not be applied too generously. If there is too much product, it will roll up in the folds, and this will only highlight all the flaws.
In general, camouflage of “nose lips” is a real difficulty and the work of a “sculptor”. May everything work out for you!

How to properly paint lips for women of elegant age
• Be sure to outline your lips with a pencil. This will avoid untidiness and further spreading of lipstick; • First draw your lips with a pencil, then powder them and only after that apply lipstick in two stages: first on the lips in a calm position of the mouth and then on stretched lips. • First, place the lipstick where your lips meet and stretch it to one corner, and then to the other. Draw the lower lip in the same way. This technique will allow you to avoid excessive paint getting into the corners of your lips and spreading it along the folds.
The most important thing in lip makeup is to avoid mother-of-pearl when choosing a texture. It is he who will emphasize the ugly appearance of age and give away the “deception” of lip enlargement. And, of course, you should not allow a clear contrast between lipstick and contour pencil. By the way, the presence of red pigment in the latter makes the lips “inflamed”.
— If a bright color lipstick is chosen, does this mean that the eyes should no longer be highlighted?
— For age-related makeup, this rule does not work. Everything is allowed here. You can immediately accentuate your eyes, lips, cheeks, and eyebrows. But, of course, remember the measure that defines elegance.
How to properly apply smoky eyes to elegant women
• There is no need to darken the eyes below. This way you can “pull” them instead of lifting them. • The dark color hides the overhang of the upper eyelid, so it is necessary to make smoky eyes with darkening only the upper eyelid (moving and fixed). Those who have a movable eyelid that is high and open enough do not need to extend the color higher onto the fixed eyelid. It will be enough to darken only the eyelash contour. • It is good to use a dark color: the more intense it is, the more impressive the modeling result will be.
Basic course of jowl massage

- Place two fingers on either side of the midline of the chin. Press lightly and count to three. Without lifting your fingers, move them to the corners of your mouth and press again for 3 seconds. Move your fingers from the corners of your mouth to the wings of your nose. Press for 3 seconds. After this, move your palms to your ears. Repeat 3 times.
