Makeup Tips For Crow's Feet

Makeup settles into crow's feet because thin periorbital skin creates texture that catches product. The fix starts with skincare prep, not better concealer.

Hydrate the eye area with hyaluronic acid serum before makeup. Apply a lightweight, silicone-free primer to fill texture temporarily. Allow each layer to absorb for 60 seconds before the next.

Use less product than you think you need. A rice-grain amount of concealer patted — not rubbed — onto the orbital bone covers darkness without filling every line. Thick application always creases.

Set with the lightest dusting of translucent powder only where needed. Over-powdering mature eye skin creates a cakey appearance that highlights texture.

Long-term, retinol and peptide eye treatments improve skin texture so less makeup is needed. Instant optical fillers provide immediate smoothing before special events or photography.
