Technique to Blur Smile Lines with a Combination of Skincare and Makeup

Dream - Signs of aging do not only appear at the age of 40 or 50. You can have smile lines in your 20s or 30s.

Smile lines will become more visible if you apply makeup techniques incorrectly, especially if your makeup is too thick.

This can be prevented by using simple skincare and makeup products. Follow the tricks of Makeup Artist (MUA) @errikaayu_makeup to hide smile lines when applying makeup.

Use Toner

Massage the smile lines area using a toner or essence that can moisturize the skin. Make sure the skincare used has a light formula and quickly absorbs into the skin. Apply skincare and makeup on smile lines by gently pushing the area.

Make Blush Color Softer with Kylie Jenner's Trick

Dream - Blush can be applied in various ways. You can also choose the easiest formula to apply.

Usually, cream or liquid blush is more preferred because it is easy to blend and gives a natural result. It can also be covered with powder if it is too thick.

Powder blush itself is more commonly used to make the rosy color last longer, but its application is more difficult to control compared to cream blush.

The solution is to use Kylie Airbrush Blush trick like what Beauty Content Creator @arashimalya did. Here's the tutorial.

Use Powder

Apply base makeup, eye makeup, and contour. Prepare loose powder commonly used for baking technique and powder blush. Apply the powder under the eyes using a makeup sponge.

Use Blush
