Makeup makes me look older?
Im 38 and I feel like I look older once my makeup is on for a while, it kind of makes my skin look like it has cracks that I don’t really see without makeup. I obviously don’t use any Botox or fillers and am not interested in going down that road, I do use tretinoin and have for a few years, along with a solid hydrating skin care routine (my skin is very oily).
What am I doing wrong here? I feel like I look at other women’s faces and I look older even though I don’t think I am.. feeling a little meh…
The first pic is about 6 hours before the second. My makeup in this picture is Milani primer foundation, no concealer. Not wearing foundation doesn’t feel like an option as I have redness so I need something at least medium coverage.
Suggestions?
