Cosmetics / Makeup Tip: Youth shines

A simple, quick and inexpensive way to give a little youth to your appearance is to make it "shine" like it did when you were young...er. I have found this to be especially true around the eyes, and I usually do this before going out for the evening. Apply a sparkly lotion around your eyes, over your make-up. (Jergens "Soft Shimmer" is about the least expensive I've found.) How often you'll have to reapply depends upon the lotion and your skin type.

Any topical product that gives a shine or moisture in the eye area will lend a more youthful appearance.
