If you are one of the millions of people in the world that are plagued with wrinkles, then you must be thinking of the ways in which you can hide the wrinkles. Believe it or not, you do not have to resort to surgical methods or walking around with a paper bag over your head. There are ways in which you can use the make up you have in your cosmetics bag to hide the wrinkles.

Foundation is a wonderful thing and is used to cover all manner of sins. You can also use this foundation to hide wrinkles. Whether it is in a powder, liquid or a mousse form, you can use this, with the right amount of thought into buying the right one, to cover a multitude of sins, including wrinkles. You must first try to buy one that is the closest you can get to your natural skin colour. If it is the wrong colour, it will not hide the wrinkles, it will just accentuate them. Too dark and your skin may just look orange, too light and you will look pale. Try applying the foundation with a brush or a sponge instead of your fingers as you may find that they will apply it too thick and again, make the wrinkles look more “filled in” rather than hidden.

If you are not a big fan of foundation, try getting a tinted moisturizer instead. This will look and appear lighter than a foundation and doesn’t need such delicate handy work. This is good for those that wear make up on a regular basis, by taking care of the skin whilst hiding imperfections such as wrinkles. Again, tinted moisturizes will still need a bit of care and consideration behind buying them, but it doesn’t matter too much if the colour is not an exact match.

If you have dark circles around the eyes, then a lightning concealer can be used to hide both the darknness and also to hide the wrinkles. Lightning concealers reflect the light, making the dark circles appear lesser and can also hide wrinkles by bouncing the light off of them. The thing you need to remember is that the foundation will only really work if the skin underneath it is moisturized and well nourished. If the skin is smooth then the foundation covering it will be. Make up can only work so many wonders!

The trick behind hiding wrinkles with the help of make up, is finding the right make up for you. You need to get the right colour, texture and type to suit you. Lightning concealers will work if the skin is dark, if it is already light then you may find yourself being somewhat shiny. You can get cosmetics specific for being able to hide wrinkles. It may be slightly more costly, but it has been proven to work, by other people such as yourselves. These will have more vitamins and minerals in that have been proven to fight against wrinkles, and will bring extra nourishment into the areas that need it most. Try some out and play around with your make up. Only you know what you like and what you think looks good, and these are the basics to whcih you should work around!
