- Makeup is one of the best tools we have in our arsenal. The right makeup can transform you from tired to glam and refreshed, whether for work, a casual day, or a night out. However, the wrong makeup techniques can age you just as quickly. Sure, you might be great at applying makeup, and it’s probably served you well over the years. But using makeup application techniques from even five years ago can drastically change your appearance as it is today. Since your skin changes as you get older, your makeup needs to be adjusted accordingly. Here are some makeup mistakes that make you look older and how to avoid them.

What other aging makeup mistakes do you think should've made this list?
You can start by getting mature women to do the video, children do not understand. They just say "wear nude colours".
peggyt1243 AGREED!!!!
Using pastel powdered eye shadows is very aging. I like to use just a bit of whatever glossy cheek and lip color I'm using to highlight my eyelids. I've never been a fan of a "made-up eye" because I already have a bold eye color and dark lashes. Well groomed, full eyebrows and healthy, moisturized skin are a big help if you are trying to appear more youthful.
The List I look older when I wear medium - high coverage makeup, lipstick when I apply it heavily too, eyeliner..... Basically something apply very bold
Over contouring, blushing and highlighting all at the same time makes your face look too crowded and compartmentalized. If you have a small face, it's best to do just one or two but not all three cos that makes you look old.
I'm 56 with blue eyes. After experimenting, find grey tones work better than peach tones. If you use a bit of makeup setting spray and dip angled brush into black eye shadow it gives a softer look for top lid. For bottom of eyes go with dark grey.
I think the eyeliner on the bottom lid tip actually depends very much on the individual and on the shape and colour of your eyes. I've experimented quite a lot with different ways of applying eyeliner, and I find that lining the bottom lid actually makes my eyes look bigger and makes me look younger, while lining the top lid definitely makes me look older
That's nice and all, good for you. I, on the other hand, will disregard this "less is more, avoid bold colors, yada yada" crap and figure out ways to still look like a beautiful gothic queen when I'm 70!
Then again, I have high hopes for maintaining a relatively youthful look for quite long as I avoid the sun and have oily skin, both of which are factors which can prevent wrinkles.
KreeZafi do it. break the rules.
I personally think that when you do your makeup, if when you're done you like how you look and you feel good, you did it right. I'm sure some people I know don't like that I wear the wing eye, I don't care.
The fact that wrinkles were called, "imperfections just pissed me off." Ugh
I recommend doing whatever you want and makes you feel good.
Totally agree.
I use shimmer shadow and black under the eye and dark lipstick and it makes me look younger but I do agree about face power I am in my latter years with no wrinkles though
**gives unending list of rules**
**says there are no rules**
BISH HOLD UP
Why not show older women to show these tips? All these women are too young to demonstrate these techniques!
Lol😂 So funny @ 3.47 the reverse- raccoon look, makes me broke out into a hearty laugh.
Great info...some I already knew, some was new to me. Aging is the worst, so it’s nice that you look at it as a natural process. I’ve been super careful to take care of my skin my whole life, so I’m good with wearing minimal makeup. 💄
i so agree with this video ... 5 years ago i use to look more tired with my make up than without , so i start using thing that i used to avoid and little by little i chande my entire make up routine, and 8 of that 9 tips worked on me .
Another tip: STOP taking UA-cam beauty influencers word as the gospel. Most of them are getting paid and get PR products. Not to mention think they are makeup artists because they do their own makeup. Majority are wanna be famous and it's just about their egos.
GeminiMUAartist exactly!
I don't think the black liner on bottom water line does the aging thing for everyone. Its subjective. In India at least 80% women use black liner every day and it does nothing but enhance the naturally beautiful eyes.
Komal Salunke later on in life you’re going to suffer royally by putting liner in your eye that way. More people have had infections and anti-bodies developed in their eyes from years of doing it because of doing that. I’m sure you going to get upset and not happy with this comment, but years later you will turn around and say “OMG that person was right. I should’ve never done that.” It will be too late. Beautiful eyes are not enhanced by extra make up but only by make up that is understated.
Kormal: I've never put eyeliner on the water line. It closes up the eyes and makes them look smaller. I always put a very fine line just at the base of the bottom eyelashes and then smudge it with a Q-Tip. Makes the eyes look bigger. Indian woman have the most beautiful eyes to begin with.
Komal Salunke I think this depends on shape of your eyes also not only on age. I agree with you that black bottom liner does not automatically make you look older. I know a lot of women for whom this is a very good look and even for myself I do it many times and I am no spring chicken anymore and definitely does not make me look older . But I have very big eyes to begin with so maybe that helps. There is no one for all formula every person is unique and what is flattering for one female might not look good on another one. As long as make up makes us feel good about ourselves I think that is the whole point of using it
You're right but those women are naturally dark complected and have dark brown eyes. I've never worn black line and never will - I'm a natural blonde with light blue eyes and when I wear dark liner, I look like someone hit me in the face. It's awful!
A Video about ageing women should have someone besides Teenagers in it!
Great video ! There are certain things that definitely draw attention to the wrong things , and these are good tips to keep your makeup look classy and avoid the risk of not being taken seriously.
Can’t take this video seriously when they used young models and some of the older women represented were made to look silly. Nearly ageist video I would even say.
So true...
I agree! The video is silly and useless. They make fun of the older women in the video. Yikes!
Most of those girls were barely over 20. I'm 30 and I feel old compared to them. They should have used women over 30 or 40 or even women in their 60s. Wth
Also they are showing pictures of young women wearing the don’ts! Like “here are pictures of beautiful women getting to do what your old self can never do again!”
That is exactly what my comment was going to say.
Honestly you should wear what you want, that's the beauty of makeup that there is no rules
Using makeup should be fun and also self-expressing. I have a goth friend and I honestly love her makeup and clothes she wears. We should just respect each other and embrace those differences :)
I'm a Pasta ً
I'm a Pasta p
I'm a Pasta. These aren't rules nor are they laws. They are simply tips for women over a certain age who actually wants to hear them. Why are so many of you not understanding that part?
Good thought. She says that right in the video! Did you watch til the end?
Thank you for including Monica and Rachel, I deeply appreciate it.
"Don't apply black, gel eyeliner to the bottom lash line..." // Uses models wearing black, gel eyeliner // :S
Sophie Lloyd i noticed that too
🤎🥜🥜🤎💪🏽🥜
01:00 For for liquidy base.. skip powder .. go for creamer .Bcoz as we age we lose moisture
Use fix spray or primer instead of Powder compact
02:30 Use dark brown eye shadow with thin brush in lower lid instead of black pencil
3) 03:22 use liquidy thin concealer AT under eye .. like NARS
3) Lip gloss make ur lips look more Youthful.. just lip liner and gloss ✨
black eyeliner in the bottom is my 2nd go to and blush is 3rd....sorry! I don't see aging in black eyeliner it's what made my eyes look dramatic and mysterious
Thanks! This just reinforces what I've been doing in a good way! I'm a tomboy who wears very little makeup, and it works for me.
You can take the odd tip from these videos but really just wear what you like!!!.you don't have to be perfect. Just happy in your own skin. I'm nearly 50. I have bright red hair and the other day i had sparkles in my hair and on my cheeks at a festival i went to. It made me happy :)
Love this video, it confirms a lot of things I've figured out at age 60. I only wish you had demoed on older models.
Great tips. I would add that the recently popular heavy brow is also not a good choice for some mature ladies. Fill in the brow lightly but no overfilling or exaggerating.
I love applying white liner on the bottom of the eyes..it looks stunning and makes our eyes look bright
As an older make-up user, I don't identify with these women at all...they're in their 20s!!! :(
Renee Bloggs AS FOR ME , THE BEST MAKEUP IS , TO DRINK PLENTY OF WATER , PLENTY OF SLEEP ( 12 HOURS A DAY ) , VEGETARIAN DIET , EXERCISE DAILY , STAY OUT OF THE SUN , GOOD PERSONAL HYGIENE , BE ALWAYS POSITIVE , AND LEARN TO FORGIVE !
Sleep 12 hours a day? What do you work as to get that much of sleep?
@@cynthiarothschild7773 Menopause makes that pretty difficult...
Lol my cat and dog sleep at least 12 hours and don't have wrinkles 😊
Cynthia Rothschild 777 thanks for your message
This would make more sense if the models were actually older. Enough with the young gals!!
Yes I agree. Why talk about techniques for older women yet only show models who are in their 20s
Wack and Snooze
She is correct and given very beneficial information ... Great The List !!!
there arent too many mature women shown in this video. i think i will do what i want
Sweetpea
But the video is meant for mature women!!
Don't you know what you watch??
I'm nearly 30 and I look like 16, I find these tips helpful to make myself look OLDER :D
ElliUsagi same lol
You guys are blessed
ana'cee I hear that all the time, but for me it's a curse :DD No-one takes me seriously, I hear "girly" alot. People get visibly confused, sometimes ashamed or even angry when I have to tell my age. Older women bully me a lot, cut me on lines in supermarkets, yells at me and stares at me angrily, you know, age-discrimination.
Only good thing is that sometimes I get discounts.
And kids are awesome! They show no pity or get confused even when I tell my age, they might just say "you look young." but that's it. I work in childrens artschool and I blend in very well xD
ElliUsagi: LOL! As I was a Teen, 16 years, I want to look older, more "adult"! And now? In the other Direction! Always the same! 😂
ElliUsagi: but be happy! I looked also (till today!) younger....in Germany we say: "peel an egg on it!" 😂👍
Yes im 51 and yes i have so much makeup that i have collected through the years, went a little crazy! But lately its not been working for me. And im finna go through all my makeup and say goodbye to so much of it. And will be starting over for the most part. And get what i need for me.
it looks great on you! You did a great job!! You are so talented💕
I love how they showed kylie jenner's video while they were talking about heavy out lining your lips
video like this helps me a lot as i am now nearly 40, ive no longer put black eyeliner on the bottom of my eyelids instead i put nude eyeliner pencil & lil bit of mascara,since then i look younger & awake :-)
Angela Baby cla
Angela Baby great
Angela Baby : as I become older I changed my "Style" also a bit! But I love to wear Khol as a "under eye-liner", too! And if we use it in a good way and style it looks great! We can do what we want, but we get the look, what is "good looking" and what is to "hard", and that's it, what this Video want to tell us!
Everybody have to search for his own Style, what fit's perfect to Face and Feeling. We have to change, if we grow "out of old Style"!
Teens in the 80s! My aunt still loves her blush and make up!
Thanks for the info. I wondered why, when I started make up at 57. It made me look older. It was because I'm use to wearing butters on my face. But with makeup, it was powers only. So I will start using cream blushes and highlighters.
My very wrinkled grandmother still wears bright red lipstick.. I agree!
first they list a million things that we're not suppose to do then tell us to not be afraid to try new things and what works for us. Nice.
That was great information thank you I will use it now
This video proves that society has a negative view of older women. This is supposed to be a video on makeup tips for older women, yet 99.9% of the women in this video are probably not even 30. They are so disgusted by the sight of older women that they can't fathom using models who are 30+ in a video for WOMEN WHO ARE 30+!!
That baby being pinched is sooo cute haha
Thanks. That was very helpful!
When I do wear eyeshadow I wear Mac pigment in tan and there is also an exact dupe for that now by L'Oreal. That shadow that I have is the everything shadow of the year and it is gorgeous!
I THINK WHITE EYE LINER MAKES THE ENTIRE MAKEUP LOOK CHEAP
It looks ghastly. Very strange.
this entire thing makes complete sense. wear whatever the crap you wish! some look good some shit!
Very informative video with a positive narration. Thank you !
wow! nice....thanks for sharing!
I love how they suggest how to use make up and what to avoid if you are older, but the models are all 20. Good job.
At 2:56 I said to myself "I have a white liner pencil, why don't I ever use it?" Then the "after" result at 3:02 scared the bejeebeez out of me and I remembered why I don't use it. LOL!
When age comes to you all you can do is accep it, you won't look young no matter what you do.
Using muted tones for everything is really sad.
My 85 y/o grandma is very wrinkled, and nobody can take away from her that bright red lipstick!
sunshine7018c I think that ages you even more bc you're not drawing attention to anything on your face so all there IS to notice in all that muted beige IS the aging!
sunshine7018c and good for your grandma. she's got the right idea! rock on grandma! 💙
sunshine7018c ....your grandma sounds fabulous......
Go Grandma....from another Grandma (albeit only 58) who DARES anyone to TRY to take away my red lippy!!!!!! They'll be in for the arse-kicking of their lives....
I love how this video contradicts itself
wow. this video is really helpful.
Great video 👍 my boyfriend has been telling me 4ever that i look better without make-up tho he said i was still beautiful and finally i tried it out and wore less and could see what he meant 😍😍😍 Thanks for the eye liner tip 😙
I'm addicted to my red and wine lipsticks, but it does make me look ten years older. Ugh. A nude gloss does just the opposite, and that one simple change has made a huge difference.
Helpful thanks
The List: Pinch your cheeks to find your bluch shade
Me the black girl: Can't relate lol
Heheh, I’m white, but I have dry skin and am a teenager, so it already has a pink tint around my cheeks. I can’t tell what shade to use, so I just don’t, but then people think I look dead.
@Citizen 1 Because she likes blush but that method doesn't work for her🙄
All great ideas, but like my staple/signature wardrobe I will never get up my cherry red lips. I just use a clear liner to avoid feathering. And wow, lower last mascara, umm old school rule was after 25 a total no-no I'm 47, close enough to 48. I haven't even thought of barely touching my lower lashes in like 18 years. Great vid!
Great video content👍. I had no idea. Thanks
Very informative, thanks and God bless :)
Im over 40 but that doesn't stop me from using bright colors on my eyes. Why do I suddenly have to become a plain jane just because there's the 4 in front?
Natural is ok too, but I personally love colors.
You can make them work and look awesome or look like a clown, no matter what age you are.
Hello there ! I think you did a great job. She looked beautiful.
I’m almost 22 and I look 15 so thanks for the tips on making me look older
Some good tips
As far as the shimmery eye shadow, that can look good on almost anyone. It's all about where you apply it.
Confidence is the best makeup. If you want to do all of the above do it. Two times in my life I got my makeup done professionally and ended up hating it. You know what looks good on you, no one else should tell you what to do. Now, how about a video of dos and don'ts for men. I can think of a few. :P
Pffft. Ladies, wear whatever you want! I know a woman in her 70s that rocks a Gothic style. There's no need to hide your age!!!
indeed, they're obsessed with hiding your age. it's not a secret or something to be ashamed of
I am almost 46 and have been using only BB cream with no powder, but strictly only the BB cream for about 7 years now...most people tell me that I look like I am around 32 or so... Everyone always thinks that my 24 yr old daughter and I are sisters instead of mother and daughter...I also have watched how much I expose my face to the sun as well as I get older, and with a good vitamin regimen it is good to also include coconut oil....I don't use chemical based cleaners on my face and try to stick with a natural face wipe to wipe away makeup...the good thing about BB Cream is that it is more of a moisturizer and uvb protective with a tints so it doesn't clog your pores like typical foundations do, as well as enhance wrinkles as you age...it actually adds a nice glow to my face that is also not in the slightest bit heavy feeling...Most of the time with my makeup I also try to rarely use eyeshadow unless it is a special occasion...I have noticed how even a little on my eyes tends to make me look older because the skin around our eyes due to the delicate skin tends to be one of the first things we notice with the coming of age....I look younger not wearing eyeshadow at all, as well as I fully believe helps to keep that skins from aging so fast by keeping it free from having something caked over it....my eyelids always get to breathe so the aging seems to have slowed there as well by cutting how much I place anything on it...I keep my eyelashes with mascara most of the time, and even wearing just that alone will highlight tired looking or aging eyes....I also always keep my lips hydrated with some kind of lipgloss or lip color that actually has hydrating agents in it...just thought I would add a comment of what I have been doing....including regularly in your diet things such blueberries and avocados are also a good thing for antioxidants and natural way to brighten your skin and help aid in growing old gracefully....I know water is something pushed strongly, but because I was someone who never drank a lot of water, I did some studies into the truth of importance of how much they were saying you needed to drink, and I even wait tables for a living....I found that the water thing is really more of a myth because they forget to include how much water you naturally are getting in your other foods you eat; especially through things such as fruits and vegetables....so if you eat a lot of either of those, you are probably getting plenty with just a few glasses of water a day...I have not noticed my lack of water to cause any aging effects with my skin, and I have always been this way....Our bodies are far more knowledgeable with us when we pay attention to what they are saying...I find my body tells me naturally what I need if I pay attention to even cravings....I know that if I am craving sweets that I don't know need to just chomp down on junk, but that my body is probably telling me I need a little sugar, or when I crave spinach that maybe my iron levels are dropping....pay attention to your bodies cravings and this helps in your aging process too...our bodies will naturally tell us what they are needing and not needing if we learn to look for those signs....Food has always been a downfall for me because I love EVERYTHING, including all the junk food, but I have always still tried to include a lot of vegetables in my diet....a good fruit salad I have found also .is a mixture of blueberries, strawberries, mangos, and kiwi....this salad is also a good dessert alternative I have found, and great also included on top of yogurt with some granola....
Well, that did it for me no more makeup period! Thinking that would be best for my aging face 😂🤔🤓
Good points.
THIS WAS SO HELPFUL WTF
So true!
4.49 that hair is amazing !
....Eyeliner is my best friend I cant leave it alone
thank you for this vide0, im new to this !!

Half of the comments I had too ignore, especially the ones about blush. I have an oblong face using brown blush with colored blush on the apple of my cheeks, works best. You should show the techniques on older models.
what movie was that from...the girls dancing in the mirror doing their makeup???? Anyone know.I loved that movie when I was younger.
This is absolutely ridiculous!!! I say wear what you feel looks good on you and makes you happy! No one can tell women that have different shaped faces, different skin types, different skin tones what looks best! You are the best at knowing what looks good on you!!
Does anybody remember the name of that movie they used at 1:34?
Very good.
I'm 42. it helps if you get a great primer for your face. eyecream before primer. and blend well. it's all about good skincare and application. I learned alot on youtube on blending shadows and what products to buy. I disagree on the cream products tho. if you have oily skin that stuff will melt right off if on the cheek like blushes. I also disagree on the colors,and textures. wear whatever you want just try to blend it well. it's a game changer.
skorpia g I agree. I've found the biggest game changer for me to be a primer that's right for your skin. I'm still looking for my Holy Grail primer for my slightly uneven toned combo oily to normal pale skin. I wish they'd stop talking abt "botox in a jar" and just make it already!!! lolol
thanks for all tips :>]
I agree. Less is more. I am a professional make-up artist.
What's under the make-up up is important..Light weight moisturizer, & a primer are good for older women. Very light dust of powder after foundation. Lighter lipsticks. Less contouring on eyes.
Smokey eyes will accentuate all the wrinkles.
Less is more.
Omg i luv the teen witch scene.
Oooooooooorrrrrrrrrr you can wear makeup that makes you happy!
pinch my cheeks and pick a colour that matches, still lily white.
It would ever so helpful if videos like this actually feature the older women we are taking about. It's like catalogs that feature plus size clothes on size 4 women. You showed 2 older women in unfortunate pics. One appeared to be a hospital Johnny in a hospital bed! Show us older women in an older woman tutorial or why do it at all?

I've got a baby face these mistakes are what I need
Well I’m an oldie I love my makeup and yes I have changed it over the years by following tips etc, but I’m nearly 60yrs and no one ever takes me to be anyway near that, and I’m pretty sure I’m doing it all wrong. But I’m happy with my look.😜
make up is subjective people should wear it as they like it!
Coral Zhou q
totally agree
where are the product links you speak about?
No matter the pointers I get with concealer it ALWAYS makes me look older when I apply it to my circles. No matter the product, technique, or corrector. Although I keep trying because I do want a brighter eye. No luck. Creases so badly. Was born with dark circles. I'm 33. I can't afford the expensive stuff.
Why don't you try mineral powder there? I first apply yellow eye shadow and then DAUB mineral powder on top with a lip brush. Looks much more natural than those cream concealers which glow unnaturally under fluorescent lights.
I don't use foundation, and my skin tone isn't uneven at all. I think I look more colourful instead of a bland shade. Besides, it's much faster to remove the eye makeup and lipstick instead of adding blush, foundation, highlighter, etc.
i love shimmer, love love, guess ill take my old ass home now, im not getting rid of my shimmer lol
The make-up that I think should apart of the list Neutrogena cosmetic line works to blend with skin tones
Any suggestions for decent, less expensive makeup?
I like pearl finish eye shadows after watching this video.
