Reclaim Radiant Skin

1. Do a double take

You multitask all the time--so why shouldn't your makeup? "Products don't have to simply enhance features or hide imperfections," says Matin, a makeup artist in NYC. "They should treat what you're trying to conceal, too." Look for formulas that contain skin-care-worthy ingredients such as firming peptides, antioxidants and hydrating hyaluronic acid.

2. Enhance cheekbones

Collagen (aka skin's support structure) declines over time, causing skin to sag and therefore making cheeks look hollow. To reclaim youthful roundness, apply a shimmer cream on the outer edge of cheekbones, then sweep it up and out toward your hairline. "The iridescence attracts light, which will bounce off skin to create the illusion that cheekbones are full and lifted," Linter points out.

Brighten up eyes

3. Fatten your fringe

Use mascara on the top lashes only. "Doing it this way lifts the eyes because upper lashes point upward," says Robert Jones, a makeup artist in NYC. "Keep bottom lashes bare." Try: L'Or??al Paris Extra-Volume Collagen Mascara in Black

4. Enliven lids

Draw eyeliner (or wet an eyeshadow brush and dip it into powder) along upper lash lines. At outer corners, extend the line with an upward stroke to create a flattering raised cat's eye. Try: Guerlain Ombre Eclat 4 Shades Eye Shadow in Tsarina

Give Lips A Pick-Me-Up

5. Plump up your pout

Lips lose collagen as we age, causing them to deflate. Make them look plumper with gloss, or pair lipstick with clear gloss in the center. "Doing this reflects light, so lips seem fuller," says Dick Page, a makeup artist in NYC.

Shocker! Kate Moss Looks Different Before And After Airbrushing

DailyMail/W

Kate Moss is hotter than ever these days. She’s killing it in new Prada and Just CavalliW and Russian Vogue, and recent business dealings with Simon Cowell and Philip Green indicate that the model-turned-designer is also entering into entertainment mogul territory. But the Daily Mail, one of the UK’s most entertaining and trashtastic papers, is always ready to cut a celeb down to size, and they love their Kate pot shots.

This time, however, they’ve gone too far.

Sure, we all love looking at photos of normally perfect-looking famous people in their crappiest states. (You know those “Celebs without makeup!” tabloids sell like hotcakes.) And this photo they’re running of what some consider to be the most beautiful woman in the world on vacation is, shall we say, striking. But my issue isn’t with the photo (I mean, hell, she’s taken thousands of great ones—we all have off days), it’s with the accompanying article, which is every woman’s worst nightmare. Admonishing Kate for leading a “hedonistic lifestyle,” they gather a team of experts who scrutinize her aging process from head to toe. They address the acne scar on her chin, the state of the back of her hands, her “droopy” jawline, her less-than-perfect tummy, and the fact that if she’s had any Botox injected, “it’s worn off.”

Sheesh! Isn’t this all a bit much? It’s certainly the ultimate in objectification. Then again, take one look at her W cover shot, and maybe it’s a good thing, in terms of women needing to see that sans the airbrushing, lighting, and makeup. “Supermodels, they’re just like us!”

Still, could you imagine if a newspaper printed a laundry list of your flaws? It’s pretty effed. Anyone--Erin Flaherty for The Frisky
