The internet is flooded with make-up techniques for creating the illusion of facelifts, and the results are often convincing.
One popular method involves an innovative concealer technique that focusses on three areas of the face.
The hack instantly lifts the area around the eyes, marionette lines and lips, giving all features a youthful appearance.
Sheri, the creator of the YouTube channel Graceful Beauty on YouTube, recently demonstrated the technique after discovering it online.
Applying concealer to a brush, Sheri ‘lightly’ strokes the product from the outer corner of the eye to the temple.
Two additional lines are drawn over the nasolabial fold and around the lower corner of the lip.

Sheri then goes over the concealer strokes with a beauty blender, blotting down the product until it’s seamlessly blended into the skin. The result is a naturally lifted effect around the eyes, mouth and lips.
“I wanted to share with you a really neat little make-up hack that will make you look like you have had a facelift,” she told viewers.
“It will really give your face a beautiful lifted appearance. You can do this little trick with just a concealer and a brush.
“My face looks a little bit lifted. I especially love this little hack if I’ve done my make-up and my eyeshadow is looking a little sloppy.
It comes soon after the beauty influencer shared a “game-changing” beauty hack that could “prevent plastic surgery”.
“This shocking little secret I learned from a dermatologist, this is a little hack that could potentially make us look five if not ten years younger,” she said.
“No skincare product is going to life sagging skin.
“For example, if you’ve lost a tonne of weight, and now your skin is super saggy, there’s no skincare serum that’s going to get rid of all of that.”
According to the YouTuber, hydrating the skin does wonders for restoring a youthful complexion.
“To get the glowy, plump, juicy, grape-like skin, I always like to go in with my Avene thermal spray water,” said Sheri.

“You can use whatever hydration spray that you already have at home.
“No matter what your skin type, [this] is the most amazing burst of hydration on your skin, [and] will help the rest of your product penetrate better.
“Adding this as your first step in your hydration routine can really make a huge, huge difference. This is a holy grail of mine.”
