Makeup goes a long way to hide any blemishes, acne marks, dark circles, and highlight the desired features of your face. It's as easy as 1-2-3 to give you a gorgeous look. There are, of course, many makeup tricks that can make your face look sharper and thinner, but here are a few easy ones.
Apply a darker blush above your cheekbones, and properly blend it so that there is no cakeyness. Pucker up your lips, or go for duck lips, and now apply a lighter shade of blush in the hollow area of your cheekbones, blend in both colors with your brush.
Use an eyeliner and mascara to give your eyes that edgy look, this will help open up your eyes even more. You can even use eye shadow, but go with the occasion and what suits your eye.
Haircut and Hairstyle Tips
Just as makeup can hide any imperfections, so can hairstyles. There are various ways in which hair can be worn or styled to make a round face appear longer. A good haircut will highlight your unique features, at the same time conceal any weaknesses.
You want your face to look oval and thin, so keeping that in mind, opt for a haircut that's shoulder length, because a short haircut can make your face look heavy. You can add layers to your hair, like getting soft bangs will lend your face an oval shape. Also, watch out if the bangs are cut too short, because that would make your face appear wider.
To add effect, keep the hair short at the back, and keep it long in the front, which provides a sharp look to your face.
Use brighter color highlights, as it helps to draw attention to the top part of your face, making it look slimmer.
However, refrain from getting tight curls that stick to your face, go for loose curls that are curled away from your face, but still frames your face.
Anything to frame your face will make your face look thinner, pull random locks of hair out to frame your face, you can do the same if you fancy a ponytail. Another tip is to go for heavy side parting and leave those strand of hair loose.
If you still are unsure, do not hesitate to consult the hairstylist at your salon. As an expert, he/she would be in a better position to help you out. With all these tips and tricks, you can surely make your face appear thinner; if actors can, then so can we.
