How to erase a few years off your face with makeup | ALI ANDREEA

hi everyone welcome back to my channel for those of you who are new in here hi my name is andrea ali i'm a professional makeup artist based in paris and in today's video i'm going to show you how to sort of erase some mirrors of your face or maybe erase some sleepless night some signs of fatigue i'm gonna show you step by step how to get from this to this let's get started here's what i'm gonna do i'm gonna take a picture right now like a before picture and then i will download it in my phone and i'm gonna analyze everything that is wrong there's nothing wrong with my face right now i'm slightly tired but you know i'm also not in my 20s anymore so you could definitely see a few signs of aging on my face now let's take the picture now here we have the picture on my phone and i'm going to analyze myself a bit not that i don't know what i could correct but obviously the under eyes i've got a little bit of redness and darkness around my nose i have a little bit of hyperpigmentation around my chin and also lower on the cheeks my eyebrows are kind of straight and i'm gonna lift them a little bit with the help of makeup my lips look very tired and lifeless because i have no hydration so we're gonna fix that and then i am also going to sculpt a little bit the cheeks which is going to lift them slightly and i will add a little bit of light on my eyes some mascara but not too much because i want i want this look to be like a no makeup makeup look almost but just erase literally erase all the signs of fatigue and you know years on my face so let's get started i will use this bobbi brown vitamin enriched face base i've been loving this i actually think i have started my channel using this but then i had a period of time when i couldn't find this in france this is an amazing base if you have normal or combination skin stay away from this if you have oily skin by massaging your face even for like a minute or two it's going to get the blood flow you're going to instantly look more rested then i'm going to use the vitamin enriched eye base and you guys this is a really really good base very hydrating for your under eyes don't use any other eye cream if you're using this so it's great under your concealer but it's also great as you know a hydrating eye cream and of course i'm going to hydrate my lips i'll use this fresh sugar peach lip balm i love this guy i don't think i give enough credit to it but i really like a fresh lip balm and like i said instantly already face will look better just like you massage your face rub your lips together so you get that blood flow i'm going to use the estee lauder double wear foundation this back in the days used to be like a very very heavy foundation like people would consider it a very heavy foundation i think um since then we have a lot more like heavier foundations than this available it's still a good very good coverage like a medium coverage and what you should remember about heavier foundations is that the more hydration you have underneath the more natural and sheer your foundation will be so because i've hydrated really really well my skin this actually will not look very heavy on me it's really a great everyday foundation to this day i recommend it just don't use it when you have pictures going on because it does have a flashback my color is 3w 1.5 now here is the trick if you're going to apply this foundation with a beauty blender or any sponge you're going to increase its coverage this foundation already has a lot of coverage i don't think you should increase it unless you absolutely need it so as you can see this is slightly warmer than my face but then it matches really well my neck i've taken a tiny little bit on my brush first i put it on the back of my hand and then i spread it and because it's slightly warmer than my face i make sure on the parameters of the face i spread it really really well so you don't see that mask effect my goal is not to hide away my skin my goal is to even out the skin tone i feel like when you apply foundation and you avoid like i did right now on purpose the eye area the dark circles look even darker so we're gonna fix that next and this time i'm going to really really work on hiding as much as i can the dark circles so i'm going to use two uh concealers i normally just use the ysl touch which is great for every day when i'm not looking for any like perfection type of skin and now we're going a little bit further uh so i'm going to mix it with the tarte shape tape this is in the color 34s and this is in the color 2.5 i'm going to start with tarte this uh color 34s it's a little bit more warm if we analyze a little bit the way you know my my face my bone structure is i've got deep set eyes which brings a very deep shadows in here and also in the inner corner so that's where i'm focusing the concealer i'm also going to apply a little bit of concealer in here so that this part of the eye will be a little bit more forward now instead of blending everything with a brush which i would normally do i'm going to take a beauty blender i i'm not sure this is beauty blender but uh it's like a beauty blender it's damp and the reason why i am using a beauty blender a sponge is because i want to increase the coverage then i also fix this shadow at the end of my eye trying to make my eyes look less deep set by bringing more light in there what is left on my sponge i will get it on the mobile lid now this already did a great job but you could still see a little bit of shadow okay that's when i am going to mix the two chicla with a tiny little bit of this tart okay it looks like this i'm gonna mix it together with a sponge only in this crevice only in the darkness right here i'm applying this mixture so that it gives the illusion that's a bit more forward we're trying to erase that shadow and i'm doing the same with the inner corner you see with what is left on my sponge i will try to lift a little bit the corners of my mouth i have a little shadow in there and also around my nose okay i think now you could totally see the difference the eyes look brighter i look more rested but i need to set and i'm taking the good old laura mercier powder i have this misa one brush this is part of a set they don't they don't sell it individually but i do have a discount code if anyone is interested in these brushes i got to figure out if the product creased you shouldn't really crease because it's right i've applied quite a lot of product in here where there are not a lot of wrinkles just yet so that's where i press the powder okay and then what's left on the brush i get you know on the outer corner of the eye and one of the reasons why i love this powder it's not only because it mattifies it sets your makeup in place but also it brightens a little bit i'm also going to press the powder on the forehead around the nose and around the mouth this part of the face i leave it powderless and now it's time to shape and contour and i'll be using tom ford shade and illuminate i as you can see i love this product a lot i'm going to take another misa brush this is part of another set it's more of a synthetic set so it's great for foundations anything creamy this is number 32s the color i'm using in the tome forge shade in illuminate is intensity one after i take the product i never go directly onto my face i just mix it on the back of my hand basically i distribute the product on the brush and this is going to help me blend less on the face starting from the hairline i do these very very gentle tapping motions i place this shadow um right under my cheekbone and then when i blend i blend upwards not too much though have your foundation brush close when you do this step it's going to help a lot don't go too close to the nose with the contour i'm going to take my foundation brush and only blend the edges like right here under and then on top all right this gave me a very uh lifted cheek now with the same product i'm going to contour the jawline slightly nothing crazy so basically i'm i'm trying to achieve a more you know lifted jawline okay then with my foundation brush just blend this i have a very small forehead already i think a lot of times i you know i bronze and contour my forehead excessively but the truth is if i really want to balance my my face my bone structure i would have to apply very very small amount and only you know where the sun supposingly would hit me which is right at the base of my hairline that's pretty much it like if i if i really want to balance my features that's all i want to do now let's talk about eyebrows a lot of people say that very thin eyebrows will make you look older in my opinion everything that is unbalanced that look out of place is just going to look weird for example on my tiny face if i you know i look on older videos when i used to apply makeup heavy makeup on my eyebrows and it would be fine you know because i was in my 20s it was fine but now i feel like when i'm in my mid-30s when i apply too much eyebrow product and i make them to look too thick it makes me look like older so the point is to you know fill in your eyebrows but don't go overboard with how thick you want them to be i'm gonna use the new huda beauty eyebrow pencil in number five medium brown first i will correct this little gap i have like right here this pencil is really really great because it's so so tiny it also has a spoolie at the the other end which is great so you can spread the product with so with a pencil first i just i'm trying to create more like a shadow and then with the glossier brow flake which is brow pen i'm gonna do hair like strokes so it looks more realistic now i'm going to use a clear brow gel this is from benefit if you follow me for a while you know i love the 24 hour brow setter and i am trying to get my eyebrows to look like they're a little bit more lifted you know what i could have done better with the eyebrows but like i said i have good days and bad days this is all i could get from it today next i'm going to use this hindash palette this is um this is called beautopsy and it's all matte eyeshadows that i really really love i think he did a great job with this palette i've used it before on stories i don't know if i used it in here but i really like it um because it's so versatile it's a super versatile palette now i'm gonna take the colors somewhere in the middle of feel and real with this zero eleven brush from amisa now i get this color because um it's not too warm it's not too cool it's somewhere in between it's like a nice neutral color basically i'm trying to imitate the shadow that i have in my crease and i'm trying to get this shadow oops that's my hair right here and i'm trying to get this shadow a little bit higher so normally my crease would be right here i get it slightly higher so it opens up the eye you see it just it's a very very uh small difference i don't i don't know if you guys can see the eye look just a little bit more open then i would take another brush 017 from misa and apply a little bit of that same eyeshadow at the outer corner to accentuate the shadow under the eyes and then also a little bit of that right at the outer corner and this is going to lift the corner of my eye a bit nothing crazy then i take a clean blending brush and make sure this is not too precise and not too obvious same color same brush i will make it look like i have a shadow right here now what this will do will lift a little bit the lip with age the space between the nose and the upper lip sags and be careful if you do lip fillers because lip fillers unfortunately they will make your lips sag much faster you will see this problem with a lot a lot of women they will they tend to have this space like very very low because they're heavier the lips are heavier so they sag faster and the same thing i will do under the lip now since i'm here i'll take back the 0-11 brush from amisa and i will contour my nose i could have contoured my nose with the cream product i find it much easier on my nose to be contoured with a powder product so i'm taking the exact same thing that i have on my eyes and my lips and contour slightly my nose again nose is one of those things that you know grows our whole life just like our years now i want to bring a little bit of luminosity uh in my in my skin and i'm gonna use the hollywood light beauty wand from charlotte tilbury this is a fantastic color for my skin tone not to mention the product is really good and you know it's one of my favorites since forever but it's also like a really really good color for me by the way i'm using the color spotlight and the way i like to use it is apply it on the back of my hand i feel like i have more control if i take it with a sponge other than the sponge that comes with the product and because i feel like i can control more more the quantity of the product so i load my sponge with this and then on the highest points of the face i get some i get some light do the same on the bridge of my nose basically what i want is my skin to be pretty matte when i look straight but to have this really pretty shine when i turn and then with a flat brush this is 0 15 s brush from misa i take a little bit more of that same cream highlighter and i strategically place it right on the middle of my eyelids this way when i blink it will have like a beautiful shine and it just brightens my eyes without being very you know obvious same thing i do with the inner corner the reason why i'm using this and not a powder product is because you guys this looks so beautiful looks like skin like in real life it's really really really beautiful i'm going to curl the lashes i normally use mascara like crazy like all the way from the roots to the tip of my lashes but this time because i'm trying to do more like a no makeup makeup look sort of kind of i'm going to focus the mascara right at the base of my lashes and this is by far one of my favorite mascaras it's the push-up lashes uh pillow talk from charlotte tubbery for the longevity but also how well it separates the lashes okay so i massage the lashes right at the base okay without going up this will make my eyes look more present i've got very very small eyes as you can see but the lashes are not going to be overwhelming okay so i don't go on the length but obviously you could do whatever you want and and when i look straight i feel like it almost looks like i have a very very thin line of eyeliner right and ladies this is it i'm not going to do anything to my lips because i really have always liked the color of my lips i think hydration it makes a huge difference in my lips and then this little shadow that i have on top of my upper lip um just makes them look a little bit more like you know i hope you enjoyed this video if you did please give it a thumbs up let me know in the comments and tag me in your stories so that i can repost you i'd love to see your looks this is nothing crazy you know it's just something that really emphasizes your natural beauty and
