Beauty Tips and Tricks

1. Usage of heavy powder is your enemy. It gets caught in fine lines and can magnify them, making you look older. You should be conservative. Use a large powder brush to dust the face lightly, if you need to apply a small amount of powder. If you want to look youthful and dewy, don't wear it at all.

2. Use a light textured, luminous liquid foundation or add a luminizer to your existing base for a natural glow. If your skin is clear, use a tinted moisturizer in place of foundation.
