Of course, more power to you if you wear your fine lines with pride — but sometimes you just want your makeup to expect flawless, and they get in the mode. Don't y'all remember?

To help us combat wrinkly makeup, we chatted with Lancôme Beauty Counselor Olivia Thompson on exactly what to practice should nosotros fall victim to fine lines — and hither are her iii golden rules for making them less noticeable.

Rule 1: Ever, Always Moisturize and Prep

Fine lines wait then much more than obvious when skin is dull and dehydrated — that's why Thompson's first rule of thumb is to always hydrate the skin. "Moisturizing very well before applying makeup always help diminish the look of fine lines," she says. "In improver to that, opting for a primer that has a blurring or smoothing effect non only helps the appearance of pores but fine lines equally well." We love a hefty moisturizer like the Kiehl'southward Ultra Facial Moisturizer for this step.

Rule ii: Blurring Sticks Are Your BFF

"The Lancôme Mistiness and Become Priming Stick is my accented favorite when blurring out fine lines! Information technology sits beautifully nether makeup, and works well on top of moisturizer," says Thompson. And she's indeed onto something here, since a priming and smoothing stick volition do wonders to brand your fine lines less visible. "Information technology truly gives yous the airbrushed await with piddling endeavour before applying foundation," she notes.

Rule three: Gear up Earlier Makeup

"A little trick I like to practice that works wonders for creasing is after applying your moisturizer and primer to the face, lightly set up whatsoever area with powder before applying your cream or liquid foundation," she adds. This way, your face up will be extra protected from creasing makeup: "This really locks in what was underneath and prevents a barrier from your foundation seeping into those lines," she says, and we couldn't agree more.
