Brilio.net - Makeup is not only about beautifying your appearance, but also has extraordinary power in refreshing the appearance of the face. With the right technique, makeup can disguise fine lines, even out skin tone, and provide an instant brightening effect. Even a tired or dull looking face can change to be more alive in just a matter of minutes.
One of the wonders of makeup is its ability to make the face look younger than its actual age. Starting from foundation that evens out skin texture, blush on that gives a fresh effect, to lipstick that frames a smile perfectly. Not to mention the contour and highlight techniques that are able to reshape the facial structure smoothly and naturally.
Even now, makeup is also increasingly equipped with a facelift method to emphasize the shape of the face. Facelift makeup is usually used with tape that is used to lift the side of the face that is starting to sag. This certainly makes the appearance of makeup more assertive and even makes the face much younger than its actual age.
Well, the results of the makeup and facelift have been proven directly by MUA named Sheryl Kartika. Through the Instagram account @sherlykartika, she managed to change the appearance of a 67-year-old aunt's face to look like she was in her 40s. She chose a soft glam makeup style that gave a youthful impression.

Reported by briliobeauty.net from Instagram @sherlykartika on Saturday (31/5), the makeup transformation of this 67-year-old aunty is truly astonishing. Before being made up, her face looked plain without a touch of makeup, showing fine lines, a little dark area under the eyes, and uneven skin tone. Sherly Kartika uses a gentle but measured technique, starting from a light base makeup that is able to correct skin tone well.

In the eye area, the changes are very significant. Eyes that previously looked a little droopy and tired, now look more open, fresh, and radiant. This is thanks to the use of neutral eyeshadow that emphasizes the eyelids, thin eyeliner that extends the eye line, and false eyelashes that curl beautifully but remain natural.
The eyebrows are also reshaped to be more symmetrical and lifted, helping to create a more lifted and youthful facial effect. Not to forget, the use of concealer under the eyes successfully disguises dark circles and makes the eyes look brighter.
Another key point in this transformation is the use of facelift tape. This small but effective tool is strategically placed on the temples and jawline, helping to gently pull the skin upward.
The results are very visible, the face looks firmer, smile lines are reduced, and the contours of the cheeks look more defined. This instant effect enhances the results of the makeup and really creates a dramatic yet natural youthful impression.

The makeup is perfected with a peachy pink blush that gives a healthy glow, as well as a subtle contour on the cheeks and jawline to emphasize the facial structure. Highlighter is placed at strategic points such as the cheekbones, bridge of the nose, and forehead, giving a healthy glow that is not excessive. Natural pink lipstick gives a fresh and feminine touch, emphasizing the lips without looking heavy.

Once the transformation is complete, the end result is truly impressive. The aunties face looks like she has jumped back into her 40s with a fresher, brighter, and more confident look. Her voluminous hair also completes this glamorous and elegant look. This is proof that with the right makeup techniques and a little help like facelift tape, anyone can look younger and more radiant without having to change their true identity.
