Over the years and experiences, there comes a point where you notice that you must renew details of your makeup. Things that you did almost automatically to put on makeup, such as an eyeliner, the color of your shadows or the application of your concealer, which now you notice that they are no longer working.

Here we will show you 6 incredible tricks to highlight your makeup and more the beauty of your eyes, specifically if you are 40 years old.

Get to know your eyes to make them stand out for their natural essence

1- Create a lifting effect in your eyes

Either due to the sun or due to different conditions, the skin tends to decay over time, but we can give it a lifting effect, which consists of making up the eye in such a way that it looks torn and raised. A good tip that you can apply to both your eyes and your face is to apply the products in an upward direction. In this way, you will make your facial features look more refined.

2- Use the shadows to your advantage

Today, we know that the colors that most highlight a person’s natural beauty are warm or earth tones that resemble the same nuances that can usually be seen on the skin. Therefore, keep in mind to use shadows that have soft tones so that, in this way, you can play and experiment with transitions or subtle gradients that will harmonize your face. An extra tip is to buy shadows with a creamy texture, so that your expression marks close to the eyelid are not accentuated. Finally, remember to use brands that are certified to avoid possible consequences, such as skin irritations.

3- Opt for the most delicate outlines

You are probably a fan of the look so sophisticated that it leaves a good sober line, as this is the time for you to start putting delicate lines into practice. We suggest that, in your first attempts, you use a down eyeliner to make the application easier and more effective. You just have to be very delicate and patient in the application so that the result is neat. You can choose a more earthy or softer color to make your eyes look bigger, since the dark tones will harden your features and, visually, your eyelid will be heavier.

4- Be careful with the concealer for your dark circles

Whether they are hereditary, due to age or lack of rest, dark circles dull the light that shines in each look, a simple solution to this problem is to apply concealer in the lower part of the tear duct, preferably that the concealer is a lighter shade that the tone of your skin and that it is moisturizing, because if it dries your skin it can highlight some wrinkles and it is not the objective we are looking for, on the contrary, the main purpose is to give a fresh and healthy appearance to the face, especially the contour of the eyes.

5- The eyebrows are a great frame for your eyes

If you want a dominant or confident look, ideally you should fill in your brows with the technique of your choice. Likewise, it is important that you respect the natural shape of your eyebrows and that when using an eyebrow pencil it is in brown tones, because it will soften your features while still giving strength to your look. We name this trick after the frame, because your eyes are a work of art that should connect perfectly with the other parts of your face.

6- A primer for your eyelids will be your best friend

This trick will make you show off some beautiful shadows, because the primer fills in the wrinkles and covers the spots, leaving as a result a canvas ready to be decorated with shadows of all kinds, whether they are matte or glossy style, go ahead and try it to enjoy flawless eye makeup.
