Share this history on :

Tired of always being told you have to do more and spend more too look younger? How would you like to do less and spend less yet look younger? Well now it's possible. All you have to do is avoid these 12 most common beauty mistakes made by women over forty and you will look younger, healthier, and more attractive.


1. Don’t use foundation that's lighter then your skin color. You will look pale, washed out and unhealthy.

2. Don't use powder foundation it tends to collect in creases and make wrinkles more prominent.

3. Don't use frosted eye shadow, because its frosted particles settle into lid lines accentuating wrinkles.

4. Don't use iridescent eye shadow it attracts light and draws attention to lines.

5. Don't use brown eye shadows they tend to age the face and create a tired appearance.

6. Don't use black eyeliner it is to harsh and will emphasize any fine lines around the eyes.

7. Don't use overly light under eye concealer this will illuminate any imperfections and lines in the under eye area.

8. Don't over pluck your eyebrows; a very fine brow gives your face an aged look.

9. Don't use too pale, too dark, or too bright color cosmetics. Anything bold, unnatural, and overpowering on the face makes it appear older and unattractive.

10. Don't apply your blusher too high or too low. If you want to create a natural, younger lift look to your face never apply blush any lower than the bottom of your nose or any higher up than the outside corner of the eye.

11. Don't apply your makeup too heavy because as the skin ages it starts to lose its firmness. Heavily applied makeup tends to slide into and accentuate lines and furrows.

12. Don't over exaggerate your lip line it will look phony even clown like.
