I’m a beauty expert and here are four cheap make-up tricks to make you look younger

YOU don’t need to turn to expensive treatments or surgery to look younger.

In fact, according to one savvy mum you only need to know four make-up tricks to knock the years off.

Nicole Burant is a make-up pro and mum shares tips and tricks for mature skin on her TikTok account, @momswhomakeup1.

In a recent clip she revealed her four best make-up tricks and everyone should know them.

“If you do these you will trick the eye into thinking you are younger,” she said.

Shape your eyebrows

Not all of us a blessed with luscious eyebrows, and as we age they can often thin out even more.

So it’s importnat to “shape and define” your brows to help your entire face look younger and more put together.

If you’re lucky enough to have fuller brows you don’t need to fill them in them but you “still want to shape them,” Nicole said.

She continued: “If you’re like me and you have a lot of sparseness, you want to also fill them because it immediately gives you a more youthful frame to your face.”

Conceal like a pro

It can be tempting to coat any problem areas in loads of concealer, but this might actually be doing more harm than good – especially when it comes to your undereye area.

Instead, apply a little to the inner and outer corners of your eyes and make sure to blend it up into the inner part of your eye.

“This is really going to highlight that inner area and cover any darkness that you have.”

“And then when you do your outer corner, make sure that you blend upwards, it’s going to create a lift and create an illusion of youth because it’s going to draw the eye up,” the beauty whizz explained.

Don’t forget blush

Applying blush can bring colour and life back into your face – but you’ve got to place it in the right place.

“Do not go anywhere near the apples of your cheeks,” Nicole warned.

Even if that’s where you’ve always applied blush, you need to apply it to “the upper part of your cheekbone” as you age.

“This is going to create the illusion that our face is being pulled upwards,” according to the pro.

Fake a glow

“When we’re younger our skin has a natural luminosity to it and we need to fake that,” Nicole explained.

This is really simple to do with any highlighting product.

Just apply the highlighter to the middle of your nose, your upper cheek bone and little bit on your cupid’s bow, Nicole said she also likes to add some above her eyebrows.

A little goes a long way with highlighter, so you only need a little bit of product to create a youthful “glow from within” appearance.
