Most anti wrinkle creams are great and work very effectively in reducing the appearance of your wrinkles. However, they don't take effect overnight, so you might want to learn some makeup tricks to hide those wrinkles in the meantime. Makeup is excellent in hiding wrinkles and other skin blemishes but you have to be careful because if you apply it the wrong way, you might just make the wrinkles appear more obvious.
A general rule in applying makeup or any skincare product in your face is to cleanse and wash it first. This is so that your skin can absorb the ingredients that are contained in your product better, especially when it comes to anti wrinkle creams. Wash your skin with a gentle cleanser and then apply some moisturizer first even before you apply some wrinkle cream and wear some makeup.
Most women think that by applying a very thick foundation, they can effectively hide their deep wrinkles. This is a bad idea since thick foundation tends to crack and reveal your wrinkles from underneath. What you can do is to apply foundation with a medium coverage and only moderately or enough to cover the wrinkles. After applying the foundation, finish with powder to prevent skin from looking shiny or glossy. In order to hide wrinkles further, use a white base concealer.
One of the problems that most women in their forties face is crow's feet and wrinkles in the area that surrounds the eyes. A good way to stop more wrinkles from forming in this area is to moisturize it daily. Furthermore, see to it that you include it when you're applying wrinkle cream. When it comes to using eye shadow, don't use cream eye shadow because it can highlight your wrinkles and not hide them. When using makeup in the eye area, always go for light color makeup. For your cheeks, hide those capillaries by finishing with a blush-on powder.
The lip area is also a problem for some women especially when it comes to putting on lipstick. Lipstick that's applied incorrectly tends to smear, so if possible, apply lipstick using a firm brush. A soft lipstick brush will not hold lipstick in place. In addition, try using cream lipstick because they can hide tiny wrinkles around the lips more effectively.
It's really tempting to buy just any skincare product you can get your hands on. That would be a mistake though because some products, while cheaper, can be too risky to use. If you want a skincare product to effectively remove or even hide your stubborn wrinkles, you should invest on high quality picks. They can be expensive but it's worth it since you can be sure of their quality.
