7 Makeup Myths That Are Actually Making You Look Older

Makeup myth: Bright blush looks unnatural

Truth: Avoid dull shades that look washed out, and don’t add richness to your complexion. A bright color, applied softly, will look natural, but it will also combat signs of fatigue. A sheer application of bright peach, pink, or even red will mimic a natural flush better than a dusty rose color. Skipping blush altogether, especially when wearing foundation, leaves a bare face looking a little too neutral to look natural.
