I don’t know, but you do look very youthful. The makeup looks really pretty. Your under eyes look super smooth (I struggle with this.) Please share your secrets
So the biggest thing I have found is snail repair cream. It has completely changed the texture and health of my face skin and allowed it to remain supple. I also drink a crazy amount of water because of my chronic illness I am chronically dehydrated. So that may help a bit. For this particular technique all I did was apply my foundation and concealer as usual but instead of using a big fluffy brush in some air spun powder to coat my face and set my foundation, instead I used a moistened beauty blender on the cover FX powder to contour and finish. It’s much lighter, stays better, and doesn’t settle into my creases. I think the biggest thing with this technique is using a minimal amount of everything. You can’t see it very well in this photo but you can still see some of my freckles and age spots in person but I feel like it makes it look more natural.

Totally agree with the use of snail mucin in skincare to improve the look of your skin and how makeup sits on the skin! I use the CosRX Snail Mucin Essence which is lighter than a cream, but it gives a similar effect to the skin. I think the ByeBye foundation also has snail mucin in it iirc. The inclusion of both make your skin look so glowy and youthful.
