Makeup is arguably the most important secret weapon in any woman’s arsenal. Whether you enjoy wearing a little or a lot, makeup has the incredible ability to totally transform your face. Makeup can make you look 10 years younger if applied properly, but it could also be aging you a lot more than you think. Here are seven ways your makeup is aging you--and seven quick and easy fixes to those problems.


It’s fun to sparkle and shine every once in a while, but overdoing it with shimmery highlighting products might be aging you. Shinier makeup products draw attention to creases, wrinkles and fine lines in your skin, so be careful where you apply your highlighter or shimmery eyeshadow–it’s doing the exact opposite of what you want it to do. Try using products with a matte finish and opt for lighter hues to fake the youthful glow.
