Beaming beauty

Flatter smile lines with simple adjustments to your make-up. Max Factor Brand Ambassador Liz Kelsh shows you how.

#1 KEEP IT LIGHT

To avoid foundation settling into your laugh lines, look for luminous lightweight formulas, Liz explains.

#2 SHINE DIVERSION

“A little luminizer on the cheek bones can do wonders to distract from fine lines,” Liz says.

#3 PRECISION POWDERING

Apply powder sparingly. “The less powder there is over your fine lines, the less likely it is to sit in them.”

#4 SHADOW GUIDELINES

Blend, blend, blend! “You don’t want any hard lines that look like arrows pointing toward your laugh lines,” Liz instructs.

#5 CHEEKY DETAILS

“Smile lines can sometimes make you look tired. Combat this by adding a little cream blush high on the apples of the cheeks,” Liz says. 1. Max Factor Healthy Skin Harmony Miracle Foundation in Golden, $36.95.
