When we were all younger, we loved hearing that we looked older than our actual age. Oh, how the tables have turned! There are so many different fashion mistakes that you need to avoid if you want to seem young and fresh as opposed to older. Depending on your outfit, you can make yourself look younger or older! It’s true that fashion isn’t always easy to get right. There are some things that are in style one moment and the next are faux pas. Trends constantly evolve and change. So, let us help you figure out what you should avoid!
Poofy, Big Hairdo
Back in the ’70s and ’80s, it seemed like everyone wanted big hair. It was all the rage to back-comb the hair or tease it. These days, however, it’s common knowledge that doing so will seriously damage your hair. Not to mention, this style is so outdated. Soft and silky locks are the way to go.
Matchy-Matchy Outfits
Mixing and matching prints and patterns is very much in style. Color coordinating? Not so much. It can become boring to wear matching outfits. On top of that, it can make you look older than you really are. Avoid looking too put-together if you want to have a younger look. You can mix leopard and plaid or stripes and circles for example.
Over-Plucking/Tweezing
People used to love having their eyebrows plucked very thin. However, these days, people prefer thicker and more natural eyebrows. Don’t worry about stray hairs! The bushier they are, the better they will be.
No Skincare Routine
Are you in your twenties now? If you are, know that it’s a great time to start using eye and night cream. Despite the fact that you’re still young, you can prevent skin aging by using the right products for that. Include this step in your morning and night routines.
Matching Lipstick And Dress
If you’re wearing a black sweater, finish the look with some pink lipstick. However, you shouldn’t get a pomegranate lipstick and wear it with the same-colored blouse! We found you will find the perfect match in any case. The difference between the shades will look strange.
Undergarment Lines
The right clothing will only look good if you’re wearing the correct undergarments below them. While the outfit might look great on its own, it might turn out to be useless if your bra is peeking through the shirt or if your underwear is too tight. Get seamless undergarments to avoid any embarrassing moments.
Tan Stockings/Pantyhose
Nude-colored tights and black tights are just fine, but tan is definitely not a good look. Wearing “four shades darker than your skin tone” is no longer popular. As a rule of thumb, get tights that match your skin tone.
Overdoing It With Powder
Avoid using powder makeup. The reason for this is that it causes your skin to dry out. Not to mention, it’ll make your makeup stick to every single pore, highlighting imperfections. Creams and liquids are much better alternatives for a smoother look.
Keeping The Same Hairdo
While it’s nice to find a hairstyle that works for you, it can get really boring after a while. Occasionally, try and switch up the color or length of your hair, if not both. With the right hairstyle, you’ll look like a brand-new person.
Dark Lipstick
Dark lipstick tends to draw attention to each and every line on your lips. Go for lighter shades if you want to show off your killer pout without highlighting imperfections around it. If you can’t live without dark or red, make sure to exfoliate first to make sure the surface is smooth.
