10 Makeup Hacks to Easily Conceal Your Double Chin

Are you tired of feeling self-conscious about your double chin? It’s time to take control and boost your confidence with some makeup magic!

The first thing you need to know is that it’s normal! Most people develop a double chin at some point in their lives due to the aging process where the skin starts to sag.

The beauty of makeup is that if you use it correctly, it adds to your natural beauty. With a few easy makeup hacks, you can easily conceal a double chin. While Botox or a face lift may do it better, for many, me included, pain is simply not an option!

Learn how to effortlessly conceal your double chin and enhance your natural beauty. Say goodbye to insecurity and hello to a more defined jawline and radiant complexion.

1. Start with a Smooth Canvas

First things first – prep your skin with a good primer. It’s like giving your makeup a flawless foundation to work on. Smooth it on, and your double chin will stay under wraps all day long.

2. The Art of Contouring

Contouring isn’t just for cheekbones; it’s a game-changer for your jawline too. Grab a contour shade slightly darker than your skin tone and blend it along your jawline. The shadow it creates gives the illusion of no double chin.

Blend it seamlessly for a chiseled, defined look that minimizes the appearance of a double chin.

3. Strategic Highlighting

Highlighting is your best friend when it comes to creating the illusion of a sculpted jawline. Dab some highlighter on the center of your chin and along your jawbone to catch the light and blur away any imperfections.

This draws attention away from any shadows, creating the illusion of a more lifted and sculpted jaw.

4. Blend, Blend, Blend!

Blending is the golden rule of makeup! Take your time to blend your contour and highlighter seamlessly for a flawless finish.

Not only will it help hide your double chin better, but it also gives your makeup a more natural finish.

5. Choose the Right Foundation

When it comes to foundation, opt for a matte finish to keep shine at bay. Use a foundation that matches your skin tone perfectly. I know, easier said than done, but it’s worth the extra effort involved!

An even skin tone minimizes distractions and directs attention to your eyes and lips which helps subtly conceal a double chin.

Apply your foundation evenly to your face and neck for a smooth, uniform base that keeps your double chin under wraps. Read my post on the best foundations for aging skin.

6. Neck Attention

Don’t forget about your neck! Blend your makeup down onto your neck to create a seamless transition and a natural-looking finish which helps conceal the chin.

7. Lock It In Place

After applying your base makeup, set it in place with a translucent setting powder. This step ensures that your hard work stays put all day long, keeping your double chin perfectly concealed.

My absolute favorite setting powder for aging and mature skin is the Rodial Glass Powder. It helps makeup stay in place all day without settling into lines and wrinkles.

8. Focus on Bold Eyes

Draw attention to your eyes with bold eye makeup. Experiment with eyeliner and mascara to make your eyes pop, effortlessly diverting attention from your chin. I have loads of eye makeup looks which you can check out.

9. Statement Lips

A vibrant lip color can be a powerful tool. Bold lips express confidence and shift the focus from your chin to your lips. Choose lipstick shades that complement your overall makeup and skin tone.

10. Practice Makes Perfect

Remember, practice makes perfect! Don’t get discouraged if it takes a few tries to get it right. Keep experimenting, honing your skills, and soon enough, you’ll be a double chin-hiding expert!
