Fine lines on your face can be very distressing. There are things you can do to hide them. Some of the cosmetic ingredients that are effective for hiding the lines also work to reverse them with regular use. Here are my top 5 recommendations for hiding wrinkles.

1. Try Makeup Primer

Makeup primer is a relatively new item. It works by filling in fine lines and preventing makeup from settling into the lines. The ingredients in these products vary greatly. Some of the better moisturizers contain an ingredient that works in a similar way. You will learn more about that ingredient in the "moisturize" section of this article.

2. Use Less Makeup, Not More

Heavy powder and thick foundation causes you to look older, not younger. A good rule of thumb is to apply foundation only where you need it, such as to cover up age spots or uneven pigmentation. A light loose powder, not a pressed powder, may be an appropriate choice. Just don't go too light. Always choose a tone that is at least as dark as your own skin.

You can draw attention to your eyes and away from the lines, by using mascara on your upper lashes. A little eyeliner above your upper eyelashes can also help to draw attention to your eyes. Heavy dark eyeliner is not recommended for older women.

Light colored sparkly eye shadow may be a good choice, depending on your skin tone. Never use blue eye shadow or any dark color. Young women can use dark colors to have a more dramatic look. The look doesn't work for older women.

3. Wear Eyeglasses

Some of today's popular eyeglass frames can help hide crow's feet and wrinkles beneath your eyes. Don't choose frames that are too large. Plastic frames in light colors are good choices. Wire and rimless frames can make you look older.

4. Try a Hairstyle with Bangs

Bangs can hide wrinkles on your forehead and also draw attention to your eyes. The best length for bangs is just to the edge or middle of the eyebrows. Bangs also help to protect the forehead from sunlight. So, they might actually help to fade deep forehead lines over time. Sun-protected skin always starts to look more youthful as time goes by.

5. Moisturize More

When you were younger, you might have had oily skin. You may have spent a lot of time trying different types of powders to make your skin less shiny. Now, you want your skin to appear somewhat "dewy". That's one of the reasons that you don't want to use pressed powder. It will make your skin look dryer and less youthful.

Moisturizers work to plump up the skin a little; that is if the ingredients are compatible with your skin and absorbable. Moisturizers containing petrolatum or mineral oil just sit on top of your skin, providing no real benefit.

One very moisturizing ingredient is called Xtend-TK. The ingredient also doubles as a makeup primer. It's almost like liquid skin. After it dries, your face will immediately look smoother and less wrinkled. It's the best ingredient I know of to hide fine facial lines.
