A MIDLIFE beauty guru has revealed a hack that she uses for creating the illusion of a slimmer and younger face.
She transformed her appearance in just five minutes using a $10 makeup bag staple.
Meagan (@meaganonline) boasts over 345,000 followers on TikTok, where she shares mature beauty tips.
“What’s up hooker, I’ve got one makeup tip that you can use with any of your favorite products,” she said.
The 48-year-old captured viewers’ attention as she revealed her hack for women over 40 instantly lifts sagging skin.
“We’re gonna work against gravity,” she said.
“If your goal is to pull everything up I highly recommend the Power Grip primer by E.l.f, it gives a head start on the process.
“No matter what kind of products you want to use, whether it’s cream, powder, whatever, it’s all about placement.
“I’m going to do one side of my face with the new technique just to show you the magic.”
Meagan dotted her makeup on one side of her face in three diagonal rows.
She repeated the process with her concealer and with her blusher before applying her foundation.
“As we begin to apply the product notice that every single thing is going to be pulling up,” she said.
“No lines going horizontal and definitely no lines pulling down.”
She used a sponge to blend her foundation while still sweeping her movements upwards.
Meagan compared how the left side of her face looked after using the technique in comparison to the right side.
“This is proof that using your existing products but with just a change in your technique, you can absolutely anti-age your face,” she said.
“I want you to compare sides and look at the size of my eyes.
“Look at how everything on this side is just pulled up,” she said showing the left side of her face.
“It seems tighter, more defined, it just seems more youthful.”
“EASY slimming, anti-aging, makeup hack. Pull everything UP in five minutes with your existing products,” she captioned the post.
Hundreds of viewers liked the video and took to the comment section thanking her for sharing the hack.
“Thank you for your great ideas!” one person wrote.
“I bought the primer this weekend based on your recommendation!” another added.
