1. Create bigger eyes
Use a very light golden shimmmery eye shadow, placing it just above the iris area (on the just applied eye shadow) My favourite colour so far is Urban Decay's eye shadow in SIN.
Follow on with an goldish eyeliner (a great option rather than white) and draw it on the lower lash WATER line. I love using Clarins Eye Pencil in 07 Gold.
2. Create plumped up, plush lips
Always create a dimensional lip by playing with textures and contours (depending on what colour lippie you're using, I will use the neutral colour as an example).
Use a neutral lip colour and line the lips before filling it all in with the lip pencil
putting a lighter colour on the pout of the lips before layering wiht an amazing lipgloss that is full of textured and shine for that pouty lips.
Products recommanded for lining and colouring in the lip with Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lip Pencil in Rose, layering over with Laneige Limited Edition Snow Crystal Intense Lipstick in Matte Pink focusing on the fuller point of the lips before coating a layer of Too Faced Glamour Gloss in Peek-a-Boo for that amazing fullness.
3. Create shorter forehead
The same procedure as contouring the face. Using a darker powder (1 to 2 tones darker than your skin) and a small but full powder brush, sweep it upon the area where you need it to receed. Darker receed, lighter pops out.
I love using MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural Powder (in darker shades) and use it to contour the face for its beautiful powder that is neutral upon application.
4. Create slimmer nose
Instead of using a contour powder that with a heavy hand might end up looking like you are preparing for stage drag performance. Use highlighting instead, using a lighter tone of Lancome Teint Miracle Concealer, layer on the points of the nose bridge that you want to bring up higher and blend in with fingers by dabbing, this brings the nsoe shaper without the mistake of glarish nose contouring.
5. Hide/soften lines at the neck
Moisturise moisturise.. leave a thicker layer of moisturiser (i love Clinique Youth Surge Night Age Decelerating Night Moisturizer for its beautiful formula and texture) around the neck area like a "neck mask" for 15mins before rubbing it in. The moisturisation should soften the the look fine lines around the neck.
No other skincare can remove/hide lines around the neck. Only aesthetics can help, using Thermage, to firm up and increase skin collagen level to visiblity lessen wrinkling.
6. Hide enlarged pores
The only way is to cover the pores up with a silicone base makeup to lessen the look of it. When applied below foundation, care to put this primer only on the bigger pore, oilier skin area and NEVER to overmoisturise of foundation will pool in the pore making it look more obvious.
Using Cle De Peau's Smoothing Base for Pores, is what i love. This amazing texture with oil absorbing qualities keep the pore minimised. I know some fans who use it across the whole face... EVERYDAY!!!
