M sa…
Hey! Going to a concert in a week or so, but I'm 17 and there's an 18-year age limit there. People usually say that I look older but would like to be more "safe" Can you not do some makeup that actually makes you look a little older? It should perhaps be added that it is a hard rock concert.

Do you mean like this or?

Hahaha…

Joking aside :)

Funny question actually, it is usually the opposite, but I understand exactly what you mean!

The tricky thing is that a little older often puts on less make-up, while you yourself only look like 12-year-olds with a little make-up (at least I do).

Here you get think psychologically!

Omedvetet så tänker nog folk lite mer “barn” om man har färgglatt, exempelvis rosa läppar eller färgglad ögonskugga. Så en sådan sminkning skulle ja nog skippa, även glitter.

Jag skulle nog vrida på det hela, och inte försöka mig på en “vuxen” sminkning. Utan istället försöka se sexy out, with intense eyes!

Then people absolutely do not think that you look childish, and you can at the same time get a rocking party feeling before the concert :)

This make-up (to the left) I did to 40+ on ModernMom.se just now.

Then I added black eyeliner längs vattenlinjen och undre fransraden, samt ändrade läpparna från rosa till röda. Fick en mer intensiv/sexig blick direkt, samtidigt som jag har en “mogen” ögonsminkning.

Do you follow? :)

Incidentally, so have high heels also this subconscious effect, that the brain thinks that people are older just because one is tall. Can be a tip :)

Good luck, and tell me how it goes later!
