Signs you are using makeup that does not work for you!

It is time that you reassess the contents in your makeup bag.

We all do this. We buy our first foundation and concealer in our 20s and wear the same formula throughout the years. But when we are 35, the same product may not work for us, According to beauty expert Janet Fernandez, here are signs that you are buying the wrong make-up product.

Your foundation is no match

Nothing can look more unsightly than the foundation leaving a dark line at your jawline. If you find it difficult to pick the right foundation for your skin tone, get any professional at the cosmetic store to find the right match for you.

Your foundation does not cover your flaws

The sheer foundation that evened out your skin tone and made you look like a bombshell in your 21 may not work for you when you grow older. With age, you develop redness and discolouration on your face. Try different formulas so that you can pick the one that provides complete coverage to your skin. Seek out a professional help so that you can try out all the formulas. Here are 10 quick tips to correct make-up gone wrong.

Your concealer does not work

The under eye concealer that may have worked in your 20s may make you look like you have aged beyond years. If you wear a concealer in the morning and your dark circles are still visible, it is the time that you start using a new product. There are amazing options out there in the market.

Your mascara smudges and flakes

It is easy to just swipe on any mascara you have in your hand. But if you are using old mascara it can just flake and smudge. You need to use mascara that accentuates your lashes and you do not end up looking weird. Do not use expired mascara and make sure that you use a waterproof one.

Your eyeliner smudges

When you are young, you apply eyeliner in the morning and it magically stays till the evening. But adult life coupled with exhaustion and general wear and tear can make your eyeliner more prone to smudging. So you need to constantly touch-up your eyeliner during the day. Also, try to move outside your comfort zone and wear a more neutral colour. Here are 5 mistakes Indian girls make while contouring.

Your lipstick bleeds

You need to pick a lip product strategically the one that will survive a busy lifestyle. You may also tend to get attached to a lipstick lying on your purse and wear that every single time. But you need to try out different shades and wear a formula that lasts.
