新手必看：化妆达人也会犯的15个错误！

Wearing the wrong powder.

用错粉

The whole point of dusting on powder is to decrease shine — but is the product highlighting your flaws? Look for an HD formula: The microfine particles won't settle into fine lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores.

扑粉的意义完全在于不让脸看起来太过油亮，但万一产品放大了你的缺点呢？找款高清粉底，微粒不会嵌入细纹和松弛的毛孔里。

Passing up primer.

放弃妆前霜

Silicone-based primers are especially effective at smoothing out your complexion³ and filling in wrinkles and pores, so when you apply foundation on top, you'll look flawless — and your makeup⁴ will last much longer.

含硅妆前霜对光滑肌肤、抚平皱纹及填补毛孔尤为有效。然后再涂抹粉底，你就会看起来完美无瑕， 你的妆容也更持久。

Dyeing hair all one color.

把头发染成一个色

Visit a colorist and ask them about adding dimension to your color. Brighter layers will warm up your complexion and make you look more youthful.

去拜访着色师，问问是否可以给你的发色增加些层次感。明亮的层次可以让你的脸色更柔和，看起来更年轻。

Not exfoliating regularly.

不常祛角质

Exfoliating is essential for all ages. Not only does it prevent bacteria from building up in pores and turning into acne, but shedding those old, dead layers triggers cellular⁵ turnover⁶.

对于每个年来说，纪祛角质都很重要。这不但可以防止细菌堆积毛孔形成粉刺，褪去老化角质层还可以促进细胞更新。

Not drinking water.

不喝水

While regularly moisturizing goes a long way, you can give your skin a major boost by helping⁷ it glow from the inside out.

尽管常补水非易事，但你可以激发肌肤活力、由内而外散发光彩。

Rarely wearing sunscreen.

很少用防晒霜

Even if it's not sunny outside, and even if it's Winter, put it on. Sun damage happens instantly, and its the top cause of maturation on the skin.

即便室外不是阳光灿烂，即便是在冬天，都要涂抹防晒霜。太阳瞬间损害皮肤，是肌肤老化的首要原因。

Not using conditioner.

不用护发素

As you age, your hair gets drier and duller. Nourish it by applying conditioner several times a week.

随着年龄增长，你的头发愈来愈干、色泽愈来愈暗。每周涂几次护发素来滋养秀发。

Wearing too much black eyeliner.

眼线太黑

It’s time to put away the liquid liner. That harsh hue⁸ is drawing attention to your crows' feet! Consider a softer shade like charcoal⁹ or chocolate.

可以把液体眼线液收起来了，浓重的色彩会让人注意你的鱼尾纹。试试看用柔和的炭灰色和巧克力色。

Forgetting SPF on chest and hands.

不注意胸部和手部的防晒

Bring sunscreen on down to your chest and hands. After your face, your hands are the body parts that get the most sun exposure — thus aging you — so protect them.

胸前和手也要涂抹防晒霜。除却脸蛋，手部是最易受到日晒的身体部位，会使你衰老，所以要保护双手。

Failing to fill in your brows.

不画眉毛

Years of overplucking generally age you. Look more youthful by faking fuller arches.

常年过度拔眉使你显老。画眉，让眉峰饱满起来可以看上去更年轻。

Still wearing the same blunt haircut

常年发型古板突兀

Lighter¹⁰ layers feel more of-the-moment without being too trendy.

头发打薄些更符合当下审美，也不会过于时髦。

Leaving your sunglasses at home

太阳镜放家里

Wear a chic¹¹ pair of sunglasses all year long! By not squinting¹² at sunlight, you'll be staving off crows' feet.

终年都要戴时髦有型的太阳镜，不冲太阳眯眼睛，你可以远离鱼尾纹。

Wearing glittery eye shadow

涂抹闪亮的眼影

Stick to satin or silky matte shades.

要坚持用绸缎丝质的亚光眼影。

Wearing mascara on your lower lashes¹³.

下睫毛也用睫毛膏

Bold lower lashes can draw attention to your fine lines, under eye bags, and dark circles.

大胆的下睫毛会吸引人们注意你的细纹、眼袋还有黑眼圈。

Skipping out on lip liner.
