An expert has shared advice on how to look younger

Skin ageing happens as a loss of moisture in the skin gives way to fine lines and crevices.

Fortunately, experts believe these signs can easily be concealed with the help of the right make-up tips.


In a conversation with GB News, Katie Walker, beauty expert at Beauty Answers, divulged her top tips for youthful skin.

The expert uses concealer and an essential anti-ageing gadget, claiming that it is essential to creating a "lifted appearance" around the eyes.

The skin around the eyes ages quicker than other parts of the body because it is thinner.

Dark circles, which are a result of dehydration and stress, are another key indicator of age.

“To instantly rejuvenate the face, focus on strategy and contouring to create a lifted appearance,” the expert explained.

“Use a luminous primer to add radiance, apply a light-reflecting concealer under the eyes and go for peachy blushes to add a youthful flush.”

Katie also pointed out that neglecting natural features like brows contributes to someone looking beyond their age.

“A great extra tip is to curl your lashes and apply mascara to open the eyes, making them appear brighter and more awake,” noted the beauty expert.

Keeping the skin looking hydrated is another weapon in the pursuit of youthfulness.

As a result, experts discourage using too much make-up, for fear that it could highlight texture and make skin look particularly wrinkly.

“Avoid heavy cakey makeup that settles into fine lines and emphasises them,” said Katie.

On the topic of skincare, the expert highlighted one mistake to avoid at all costs.

“Neglecting skincare basics like proper cleansing, hydration and using products can age the skin prematurely,” she said.

“Always prioritise skincare to maintain a youthful appearance.”
