Pooja Malhotra, Make Up Expert at Kiko Milano, unveils the six simple ways in which you can use your makeup to uplift your face in the right way!
Beyond concealing, makeup can also be a huge accentuating tool if implemented right. With the right techniques, you can make your face look lifted and accentuate your features the way you wish for. It is important where you place the makeup product to get the lifted effect, and here is how you can best make use of it:
1. Apply the blush on the high points of your face to create a lift. When you go high on the temples with the blush you create a sculpted look without contour.
2. Similarly, blending the contour upwards will help lift the face. Working with a creamy contour stick will be easier to work and blend with.
3. Going heavy on the concealer is not recommended. Instead apply concealer on the inner corner and the outer corner and blending it upwards will help to lift your face.
4. One can lift the appearance of the eyes by applying a cat eye or a winged eyeliner. Lifting eyeliners can elongate the eyes and make them appear bigger and wider. A generous amount of volume mascara also makes the eyes look bigger and lifted.
5. Give brows a bit of extra height or a soft arc and volume by brushing clear mascara through them in an upwards direction.
6. Your lips can appear fuller with the help of makeup. Use a cream concealer one shade lighter all over the lips around the entire mouth. Outline the lips a little outside the original line with a shade darker. Fill in with a lighter tone of lipstick in the centre of the lips.
