We'll tell you how you can remove makeup from your mouth wrinkles.
What causes wrinkles around the mouth?
Mouth wrinkles are simply a part of life and getting older. Drooping of the corners of the mouth and increased prominence of nasolabial folds (the folds between the mouth and nose) can be caused by loss of facial volume and facial fat deposits with age. However, some mouth wrinkles can also be exacerbated by lifestyle. Vertical wrinkles above the lip are often referred to as “smoker’s lines,” and the quality of the skin around the mouth can also deteriorate from excessive sun exposure.
Can you prevent wrinkles around the mouth?
As with all things related to skin and aging, the best prevention is a good routine and a healthy lifestyle. A good cosmetic skin care routine is essential to any prevention strategy and it is especially important that your face gets daily sun protection with SPF 50+.
If you have fine lines and wrinkles around your mouth, a few mayexpert makeup trickshelp your deep wrinkles disappear. With a steady hand and essential wrinkle-smoothing beauty products, you can reverse the appearance of aging without going near a needle.
Improve your facial care routine – Moisture is important
Cleanse and moisturize your face. The best way to hide wrinkles is to keep them moisturized. This step is very important because it creates a clean surface for makeup application and helps your makeup last longer. Regularly moisturizing your face with a cream that promotes collagen production can help your mature skin regain its elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
If youare over 50, a moisturizer alone will not slow the aging process. That's why it's advisable to apply a serum first and then layer a moisturizer on top. Don't forget to use a sunscreen with SPF 50+ daily.
Silicone-based primer to cover wrinkles
Silicone-based primers are a silver bullet for many beauty experts. They are one of the best types of foundation for mouth wrinkles because they are very fluid and can be used in different forms to keep mature skin smooth. Silicone also acts as a great water repellent, helping skin retain moisture and hydrate.
Apply a silicone-based primer to fill in the wrinkles around the mouth. Start with a small, pea-sized amount and apply evenly with your fingers or a beauty blender. If you have wrinkles andfine lines elsewhere on the faceand neck that you want to conceal, you can also apply the silicone-based primer to these areas. Allow the primer to absorb for a few minutes before applying your foundation and other makeup.
Make up wrinkles around your mouth with foundation
Apply a thin layer of a light to medium coverage silicone-based foundation and blend with a beauty blender. You should use a silicone-based foundation here as it is compatible with the primer that has already been applied. If you use any other type, it may peel off.
Just because you have wrinkles doesn't mean you should apply more or heavier makeup. If you use a covering foundation or apply it too thickly, the makeup will settle into the wrinkles and make them even more pronounced. You can also leave out the foundation altogether.Light makeup, such as BB creams or tinted moisturizers, are perfect for adding coverage and not emphasizing fine lines and wrinkles.
Make-up over wrinkles: Leave out the powder
Using a powder to set makeup is a popular method that many gurus use. However, if you have wrinkles around the mouth and wrinkled skin, you should leave out the powder. Powder absorbs moisture your skin desperately needs and can settle into your wrinkles and lines, making them more pronounced. If you want to absorb the shine and achieve a matte look, consider using a matte foundation.
Make up wrinkles around your mouth: Don’t forget your neck either
Don't forget to apply foundation and makeup up to the neck and blend well. The procedure is similar to the method described above for your mouth wrinkles. Depending on how deep your neck wrinkles are, you may need to use an additional layer of foundation to conceal the wrinkles. This step is important to achieve a consistent look. You would be surprised how many people miss this step.
