3. SHINE ON. “Mix a tiny amount of the fine shimmer powder in moisturizer,” says Victoria’s Secret makeup artist Linda Hay. “It immediately brightens and evens he complexion, taking years off.’

4. AVOID THE 80S. “If you’ve been wearing powder or ice-blue shadow, say bye-bye”, admonishes jordy Poon of Rita Hazan Salon in NYC. “A lot of women think it helps bring out the blue eyes, but the overkill can age you. Instead, modernize with navy blue eyeliner.”
