Women witness and experience immense changes in their skin as they age. Their skin becomes fragile and thinner as compared to when they were younger. It tends to become dry, loses its softness and glow, and even develops wrinkles and lines. Thankfully, you can age more gracefully by using these effective makeup hacks for aging skin:

Nourish your skin with a moisturizer
At times, we tend to overdo the area around the eyes with extra makeup to conceal fine line and wrinkles. This may, in fact, make them more prominent as the makeup settles and cakes into lines. To avoid this, use a moisturizer after washing your face in the morning, while the skin is still damp. This simple technique will plump up the skin and even it out.

Apply some primer
Apply primer after you moisturize your skin and before you put on foundation. This will help soften wrinkles. It is best to select one with a silicone base, as it smoothens uneven textures and fills up fine lines.

Dab some concealer
Apply a decent amount of concealer on dark spots before applying the foundation to look fresh and youthful. We assure you, you can reinvent your look with this simple hack.

Use a moisture-rich foundation
Focus on the features and bone structure of your face as you apply a foundation. Choose a hydrating foundation instead of a heavy matte formula that may make your skin appear older. Use lighter and darker shades to make soft lines hard and hard lines soft. This lends a youthful look to your aging skin. For example, you can dab foundation that is one or two shades darker than your original skin tone to lift a sagging chin.

Go easy on the powder
Swap your powder blush for a cream blush. This results in a natural, radiant look that will not draw attention to any fine lines on the cheeks. Choose a powder that contains mica micro-particles that reflect light to give the skin a lovely radiance. Your makeup needs no more than a light dusting of this mineral powder to be set.

Accentuate your lips
Use a cream lip liner on your lips. It should match with your lip color. Put a little bit of sheer and transparent gloss at the midpoint of lips using your fingertip.

Experiment with eye lashes
Dust translucent setting powder on the lashes as you apply coats of mascara to plump up your lashes. The soft powder helps grip the mascara in between the coats, so that you can have fuller and more voluminous eyelashes that will make you look younger.

Spotting the tiniest of wrinkles or fine lines on your face is an indication that you need to switch to more subtle makeup techniques. Now is the time to start caring about your skin and trying out ways to make it age elegantly.
